futurecandy 1.1

Project initialization utility for Linux.

futurecandy

><=><

Linux utility for launching projects in a single command.

Run with python -m futurecandy or add a command alias to your shell RC file with python -m futurecandy.extra to run with command futurecandy.

futurecandy will create directory .futurecandy in the user's home directory. Edit configuration files and hooks there.

Hooks

Users may add their own hooks, by creating a file in directory ~/.futurecandy/hook, with file extension .hook.futurecandy.

Below is an example hook,

[meta]
name = "LICENSE"
description = "Hook for generating LICENSE files."

[exec]
script = "python -m futurecandy.hooks.License {}"
want_path = True

Hooks must have a meta section with the name of the hook, and its description. This will appear on the hook selection menu.

Followed is the exec section with a command to run, defined with property script.

To specify the path to the project directory for the command, include {} as a placeholder in the script command, which will be replaced with the directory path, and set want_path to True.
