Feature Request: Support Renaming App Folder and Main Entrypoint

[sqwk]

At the moment the cli expects the main entrypoint to be at src/main.ts and the AppComponent at src/app/index.ts If one renames/moves them to src/js/bootstrap.ts and src/js/app.ts respectively, production compilation will fail. Normal compilation works fine. It seems that main.ts is hardcoded into the production build somewhere.

I would really like this feature too
I am using a-cli to make a component library and so having a folder named "app" doesn't make much sense, I have managed to rename my app folder changed my config files and seem to have compilation working but I cannot use the generator as it seems to only want to generate files in the app folder (which doesn't exist)

Is it coming in #1633?

I think it'd be cool to rename/move anything actually, with references updated.
I have a component called meh and I want to rename it to meh-lol and I have to update quite a few file names, and references

As of 1.2.6 I don't believe this is fixed. ng g m my-component still generates it here src/app/my-component/my-component.module.ts

Same result as @yogeshgadge here

@ghaschel try CLI 6.x you will have control over folder structure.
