Allow specific prefix for command line generation

[qortex]

In my nx setting, I use nx g component ... or even yarn ng g component ....

The extension seems to use only ng g component.

Would it be possible to have a setting where the ng part could be customized?

Custom configurations (Nx, yarn,...) support may come in an enhanced version, which I plan to develop this summer.

2 questions:

• does it change something compared to ng g or is it just cosmetic? if so, what does it change exactly?
• is the tool used specified in some JSON setting file? if so, which one and where?

1. I'm not entirely sure (I just start with using Nx), but as far as I understand and as generators are concerned, nx just calls ng under the hood and sometimes customizes a few options on the way. So arguments are the same (I basically copy/paste the command created by the extension and replace the first ng with nx).
2. As a result, I think the specification for the command lines are the same.

Looks like a few settings are added and are general to all generators: https://nx.dev/latest/angular/cli/generate

For example the --dryRun toggle, not sure it is present in ng setting?

Actually no, the extension generates ng g @schematics/angular:component ... and I use nx g component ....

In my case I dont use global ng and I prefer to use ./node_modules/@angular/cli/bin/ng to follow project version.
Add a prefix to command would be great !

Latest version (v6) of the extension has its own generator and does not rely on Angular CLI anymore.
