basil 0.1

Build a system instant-like.

Basil follows best practice to create a new python project in the current directory from a given template. Basil also supports removing projects and performing additional actions that are specific to templates.

Basil is intended to set up python projects for many different frameworks (via its template system), and to work on many different platforms and distributions.

Currently, Basil has only been tested on Ubuntu 13.10.

Features

• Installs required packages and pip packages.

• Creates a new virtualenv with virtualenvwrapper, and installs pip packages in it.

• Creates a project directory.

• Sets up virtualenv environment variables.

• Creates a git repo for source control.

• Handles destroying projects.

• Allows templates to provide additional actions to be performed on projects.

Usage

See: ‘basil -h’
