Is there anyway to skip generating tests with the generator options?

[schpet]

I'm often refactoring out various pieces of UI into components and don't need tests, is there a cli flag or configuration option that lets me opt-out of generating tests?

Hi @schpet, currently there's no option for this but I think we could add a --skip-tests flag (similar to Rails'), if you'd like to contribute a PR.

Another way is to customize your generator by copying the ViewComponent one in your project and removing what you don't need.

thanks for the suggestion!

i was about to make a PR and then realized this does seem to be supported already with the --skip-test-framework flag.

i'm surprised this doesn't show up in the output of rails g component --help – i would expect it to be similar to rails new --help where it shows all the --skip flags. i imagine that's a change that would need to happen in rails.
