Cairo contract kickstarter command

[AbdelStark]

Description

Implement a sub generator to quickly bootstrap a new Cairo contract.

The CLI could guide the user and let the possibility to:

• Choose contract name
• Generate associated test file: y/n ?
• Add one or multiple storage fields
  • type name
  • type field type
  • generate view: y/n ?
  • add in constructor: y/n ?
• Generate constructor
• Is Ownable: y/n ? If yes use Ownable_initializer(owner)

Acceptance criteria

• Contract is correctly generated based on user choices
• The generated contract compiles
• The associated test files pass

If this is intended to be for a contract in general (e.g. not ERC20 or ERC721), this could make use of and depend on OpenZeppelin/contracts-wizard#110 OpenZeppelin/contracts-wizard#131

OpenZeppelin/contracts-wizard#110

Oh yeah for sure. Did not see that it could work for General contract.
Of course we can use OZ wizard.
When will it be released approximately ?

[ericglau]

No specific timeline yet but this issue can influence the requirements of the linked wizard issue.

Or in other words, part of the implementation of this issue should occur in the wizard codebase rather than in generator-starknet.

[AbdelStark]

So how do we synchronise the effort on this ?
More broadly how can we collaborate with OZ on such topics ?

[ericglau]

I think collaborating on GitHub with specific requirements would work but am open to suggestions. I've opened an issue linked above to propose the API for this and would welcome any feedback.

Some updates:

• Draft PR for supporting a new "general" contract type in Wizard
• Proposed API doc for general type
• Preview of how it looks like in a GUI

The above would cover the "Generate constructor" and "Is Ownable: y/n ? If yes use Ownable_initializer(owner)" requirements in the original description.

It does not include storage fields yet but that can be added separately.
