Modules

Hof & CUE Modules

Every hof generator is also a CUE module, and in fact, many of hof’s other features can be used from the module system too. Hof & CUE’s modules serve the same purpose as other languages, allowing to to version, share, and reuse code. “hof mod” is the subcommand for working with modules and dependencies. The implementation is based on Go modules.

The name of a module should be the same the git repository. hof talks directly to git repositories and many of hof’s commands will accept modules as an input argument too.
