cookdir

Initializing directories and files by recipe(template)

Installation

pip install cookdir

Functions:

• create directories and files by a template name or a self-defined template yaml file.
  • Usage:
    • cookdir cook pypkg pkgname --destination=your_path
    • cookdir cook template_file_path name
• list all existing template, or show the content of a particular template
  • Usage:
    • cookdir list
    • cookdir list pypkg
• template shortcut
• support file content template so files will be initilized with some content rather than empty

Template:

A template file looks like:

# this template is used for python package

DEFAULT:
  - DEFAULT:
    - __init__.py
  - tests
  - setup.py: pypkg_setup.tpl

A string followed by a colon means it is parent directory of the directories/files. Strings following "-" means these directories are in the same level. A filename followed by a colon and another template file means that the file will be initiated with the content in the template.

You can easily defined your own recipe(template) according the rules.
