>1 Download the project.
>2 create the output directory (e.g. mkdir output).
>3 $java -jar dist/IGResourceGenerator-1.0-RELEASE-all.jar

##Basic use

usage: java -jar dist/IGResourceGenerator-1.1-RELEASE-all.jar
 -b,--bundle <filename>                  create the output in a single
                                         bundle file
 -h,--help                               print this help text

 -od,--output <directory>                the directory where generated
                                         output should be placed
 -p,--prefix <prefix>                    a prefix for the generated file
 -q,--quit                               runs with no normal output
 -s,--suffix <suffix>                    a suffix for the generated file
 -spid,--spreadsheetid <googlesheetid>   a goodle sheet id to use as the
                                         source
 -t,--type <type>                        the type of the items(s) to

                                         templates are located
 -v,--verbose                            runs with verbose output

The first time the application is run a web browser should launch and generate authentication information for access to the spreadsheet.

##Directories Note: The default directory locations can be overriden by using the appropriate command line options. ###Templates All templates are located by default in the directory: templates. Each file here is an Apache Velocity template (see https://velocity.apache.org/engine/1.7/user-guide.html for more information). There is a mapping table spreadsheet, under the sheet "TypeMapping" that relates the Type to the Template file to use to generate that type.

###Output When the generator is run all output is placed in the directory: *output. This directory should be created prior to using the tool.
