Python Copier Template

Opinionated template for new python projects.

Features

✅ build with setuptools
✅ pyproject.toml
✅ requirements.txt
✅ requirements.dev.txt
✅ ruff
✅ vscode sensible settings for a python project
✅ tbump for python pkg versioning
✅ (optional) devcontainer
✅ (optional) namespace (can have nested namespaces)

i might add more feature in the future like other build systems (poetry, pdm, hatch, nuitka) or lockfile (if what discussed in https://discuss.python.org/t/lock-files-again-but-this-time-w-sdists/ becomes a thing)

Customize devcontainer

As of now copier does not support multiple/repeated prompts, so to gather multiple values I use json prompt in for devcontainer_host_env and devcontainer_extra_mounts. You can automate it passing a yaml file with the values (--data-file file.yml).

How To Use It

install copier

pipx install copier

run copier over this repo

copier copy gh:matteo-bruni/python-pkg-template.git my_project
