# Jifty::Script::Script(3pm)

Add a new Jifty script to your Jifty application

## NAME

Jifty::Script::Script - Add a new Jifty script to your Jifty application

## SYNOPSIS

```
    jifty script --name my_new_script
    jifty script --name my_new_script --force
    jifty script --help
    jifty script --man
```

## DESCRIPTION

Add a skeleton command-line script file.

### options

- \--name NAME (required)

  Name of the script to create.

- \--force

  By default, this will stop and warn you if any of the files it is going to write already exist. Passing the --force flag will make it overwrite the files.

- **--help**

  Print a brief help message and exits.

- **--man**

  Prints the manual page and exits.

## DESCRIPTION

This creates a skeleton of a new script file for your Jifty application. Often such a script is needed for cron jobs, annual maintenance work, and any other server-side activity that would benefit from a command-line script.

## METHODS

### run

Creates a skeleton file under `"bin/`*script*`"`.

TODO Should this create skeleton test files too?
