Create Python App

• refered as CPA

Goal

Full life cycle management for python apps and libs. Create python boilerplate, develop, update boilerplate and publish.

• Single point of truth for project parameters

State

The repository contains a WIP MVP to evaliuate different technologies, workflows and user interface. It's quick and dirty.

Not suited for production work. Major version zero (0.y.z) is for initial development. Anything may change at any time. The public API should not be considered stable.

Opinionated

The software is based on decisions regarding project structure and used libraries.

Current decisions (effecting projects managed with cpa, not just cpa's developemt itself):

• py.test to run tests
• git for version control
• type annotations are good
• gitlab ci integration

In evaluation:

• pipenv vs poetry
• mypy vs pytype

Some of them might end up being configurable, some might never be configurable. Keeping CPA simple might take priority.

Usage

Commands:
  create   create new project
  dist     create distributables
  publish  publish to pypi
  test     run tests
  update   update current project
