Project templates for OddBird projects.
Requires Paste and PasteScript.
You'll probably want to first create a virtualenv first, which you'll activate whenever you need to create a new project based off a template:
mkvirtualenv templates
Once that's activated, install obc-project-templates with pip from your
local checkout. Using -e means it's installed "in-place", so any updates
you make to your checkout of obc-project-templates will be immediately
reflected in the projects you create from templates. Run this from the root of
the obc-project-templates repo (right next to this file and setup.py):
pip install -e .
As long as you have the virtualenv with obc-project-templates installed
into it active, you can cd to wherever on your filesystem you want to
create a new project from template, and then run one of the below commands to
create it.
To create a new OddBird Django project named "helloworld", run paster create
-t django_project helloworld.
To create a new Python package named "helloworld", run paster create -t
python_package helloworld.
You can also use template names django_app, static_django_app, and
tested_django_app as templates in place of python_package; these are
all minor extensions of python-package for Django reusable
apps. static_django_app comes with a pre-created static/ directory and
package_data kwarg in setup.py. tested_django_app comes
pre-configured for tests using tox.
For a Django app, if you follow the popular "django-*" project naming
convention, the Python project name and the package name will often differ, so
you may need to add package=packagename:
paster create -t django_app django-something package=something
