Initialize a MATLAB Toolbox

Create a basic set of folders and files for a MATLAB toolbox

Initialize a MATLAB Toolbox

The function inittbx initializes a folder hierarchy and a basic set of files according to MATLAB Toolbox Best Practices by rpurser47 and others. The resulting hierarchy contains:

• toolbox folder with a sample function and a sample gettingStarted.mlx
• toolbox/examples folder with a sample example
• tests folder with a sample test
• Configuration files that enable buildtool to run code checks, run tests, and produce a release package
• README.md (stub)
• LICENSE.md (stub)
• CHECKLIST.md with a to-do list for getting your toolbox ready to publish

Installation

Download the inittbx.mltbx file from the GitHub repository releases area or from the File Exchange. Double-click on the downloaded file to automatically and run the MATLAB add-on installer. This will copy the files to your MATLAB add-ons area and add inittbx to your MATLAB search path.

Later, you can use the MATLAB Add-On Manager to uninstall.

Getting Started

See the Getting Started script for more information.
