mkprj

A basic CLI tool to create bare-bones Python projects, the way I like them.

It will:

• Create a project directory
• Initialize git
• Add a .gitignore
• Create a virtualenv
• Create a requirements.txt with the default requirements, or a comma-separate list specified with --requirements

Installation

pip install mkprj

Usage

usage: mkprj [-h] [--python PYTHON] [--overwrite] [--requirements REQUIREMENTS] project_path

positional arguments:
  project_path          Path to the project to create.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --python PYTHON       Path to Python interpreter to use. Defaults to 'python3'.
  --overwrite           Overwrite existing project at specified directory.
  --requirements REQUIREMENTS
                        Comma-separated list of requirements to install.
                        

Planned enhancements

• A --docker flag to create a Dockerfile, plus build.sh and push.sh executable bash scripts
• Better support for creating virtualenvs in a default location (instead of the project directory)
• creating a main.py and test directory

More to come.
