• Read and write CloudFormation templates in YAML format
• Pre-process templates with custom logic
• Validate template structure
• Support for modern Python versions (3.8+)

Install from PyPI:

pip install cloudformation-utils

For development:

git clone https://github.com/NitorCreations/cloudformation-utils.git
cd cloudformation-utils
make setup-dev

import cloudformation_utils

# Your usage examples here

This project uses modern Python packaging and development tools:

make setup-dev

This will:

• Install the package in development mode
• Install all development dependencies
• Set up pre-commit hooks

make help                # Show all available commands
make test               # Run tests
make test-cov           # Run tests with coverage
make lint               # Run linting
make format             # Format code
make type-check         # Run type checking
make quality            # Run all quality checks
make build              # Build the package
make clean              # Clean build artifacts

This project uses:

• Ruff for linting and formatting
• MyPy for type checking
• pytest for testing
• pre-commit for git hooks

Run tests:

make test

Run tests with coverage:

make test-cov

Releases are automated via GitHub Actions when you push a tag:

git tag v0.0.4  # Next version after current 0.0.3
git push origin v0.0.4
