commandbox-banner-hack

A CommandBox module for customizing all the text in the CLI startup banner.

What it does

The CommandBox Banner Hack module allows you to customize the version, quote, and welcome message seen in the CommandBox startup banner.

Why would you want to do this?

The initial use case was a presentation - I wanted my demos and screenshots to display custom banner text in the CLI. I think a more likely reason for using this module is: "Just for fun."

Installation

Simply run the following command to install the module.

box install commandbox-banner-hack

Once the module is installed, it uses the namespace: bannerhack.
