A developer-friendly scaffolding CLI for FastAPI and LangChain/LangGraph projects

Project description

⚒ AppGenerator CLI

CI PyPI version pytest

Scaffold production-ready Python projects in seconds — powered by uv.

CI runs uv run pytest tests/ -v --tb=short on Python 3.10, 3.11, and 3.12.

$ app-generator-cli create fastapi my_api
$ app-generator-cli create ai my_ai_app --docker --postgres

Installation

pip install app-generator-cli
# or, with uv (recommended):
uv tool install app-generator-cli

Verify:

app-generator-cli --version

Commands

app-generator-cli create fastapi <name>

Scaffold a FastAPI backend.

Flag Description
--docker Add Dockerfile + docker-compose.yml
--postgres Use PostgreSQL (asyncpg) instead of SQLite
--redis Add Redis client (redis)
--output PATH Create the project in a custom directory

Example:

app-generator-cli create fastapi my_api --docker --postgres --redis
cd my_api
cp .env.example .env
uv run uvicorn app.main:app --reload

app-generator-cli create ai <name>

Scaffold a LangChain / LangGraph AI application.

Flag Description
--docker Add Dockerfile + docker-compose.yml
--postgres Add pgvector PostgreSQL support
--redis Add Redis semantic cache
