cookiecutter-pypackage

This was forked from: https://github.com/audreyr/cookiecutter-pypackage. Here are the differences of this forked version:

  • Required packages are not hardcoded in the setup.py file. All the required packages are inside the requirements folder.
  • Package requirements are broken down into separate files:
├── requirements
│   ├── dev.txt
│   ├── prod.txt
│   ├── test.txt
  • Creates a default class based on the package name.

  • Free software: BSD license
  • Vanilla testing setup with unittest and python setup.py test
  • Travis-CI: Ready for Travis Continuous Integration testing
  • Tox testing: Setup to easily test for Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.3, 3.4
  • Sphinx docs: Documentation ready for generation with, for example, ReadTheDocs
  • Bumpversion: Pre-configured version bumping with a single command

Usage

Generate a Python package project:

cookiecutter https://github.com/ardydedase/cookiecutter-pypackage.git

About the package requirements:

  • Install the dev requirements in your local machine by running:

    pip install -r requirements/dev.txt
    
  • Requirements for Unit testing (on Travis) can be found in requirements/test.txt

  • Requirements for Prod build can be found in requirements/prod.txt

  • Prod requirements are reused in both Dev and Test requirements.

Then:

  • Create a repo and put it there.
  • Add the repo to your Travis CI account.
  • Run the script travis_pypi_setup.py to encrypt your PyPI password in Travis config and activate automated deployment on PyPI when you push a new tag to master branch.
  • Add the repo to your ReadTheDocs account + turn on the ReadTheDocs service hook.
  • Release your package the standard Python way. Here's a release checklist: https://gist.github.com/audreyr/5990987
  • (Optional) If you feel like pinning the requirements for your package, you can add a requirements.txt that specifies packages and version numbers.

Fork This / Create Your Own

If you have differences in your preferred setup, I encourage you to fork this to create your own version. Or create your own; it doesn't strictly have to be a fork.

  • Once you have your own version working, add it to the Similar Cookiecutter Templates list above with a brief description.
  • It's up to you whether or not to rename your fork/own version. Do whatever you think sounds good.
