This template is useful if you have a (usually Anchor) IDL for an existing program and want to generate a client for it. But it adds a lot of unnecessary stuff for that use case, and the implementation of getAllProgramIdls doesn't work if you strip program code out. I think making this use case work out of the box would be helpful for apps transitioning to Kit before programs have an official Kit/Codama SDK .
I think useful --clients-only modifications to the template would be:
- programs directory with just a
[name].idl.json file
- modified
const [idl, ...additionalIdls] = ... in /generate-clients.mjs.njk that reads these IDLs without using Cargo/compiling anything
- remove the
programs:* and generate:idls jobs from package.json
