Generator icons for non-public generators

keirlawson opened this issue · comments

My company ships a Yeoman generator for our internal development environment. As such it is hosting on a private NPM repo as it doesn't make sense for anyone outside our company. Using yeoman-app is potentially interesting to us but I am wondering how we can include an icon for our generator, given it's internal nature? I could submit a PR with an image but this would seem a bit odd given that the generator itself isn't public...

There was an idea to store the images in the generators see #11.

@stefanbuck I take back what I said in that issue, @keirlawson just provided the perfect example where having all images public doesn't really make sense...

I guess having some meta-data in the generator's package.json wouldn't hurt, we could work on a solution for that 👍

Also, storing the image inside the repo would balloon the size of repos on npm and increase install time.
