1. Preparing the Development Environment

1.1 Introduction

A scaffolding tool helps you quickly generate the basic structure of a project. With a simple command, it can automatically create project directories, configuration files, and initialization code, saving you the hassle of manual setup.

In this system, you can use the command-line tool gmcli to quickly create a standardized application project structure, enabling you to start development efficiently.

1.2 Environment Setup

Install Python Environment

• Install Python 3.10 or later Visit the official Python website to download and install the appropriate version for your operating system.

  ⚠️ Currently, the scaffolding tool supports Python 3.10 and above only.

• Install pip (Python package manager) Most systems come with pip pre-installed. If not, please refer to the official pip documentation for installation instructions.

1.3 Install the Scaffolding Tool

Install the CLI tool via pip:

pip3 install gmscaffold

Once installed, you can use the gmcli command to create your project.

2. Generate a Project with the Scaffold

2.1 Create a New Scaffolded Project

Run the following command to generate the project structure:

gmcli gm_app create_app

💡 Tip: The project will be created in the current working directory, so make sure you cd into the desired path first.

Example Output:

➜  ~ gmcli gm_app create_app

     _/_/_/  _/      _/    _/_/_/    _/_/_/  _/    _/

2.3 Project Structure

After execution, the following structure will be generated:

example/
├── app/
│   ├── consts/           # Constants (e.g., status codes, config keys)
│   ├── i18n/             # Internationalization (default: English & Chinese)
│   ├── middlewares/      # Middleware modules (e.g., auth, request handlers)
│   ├── schemas/          # Data validation schemas
│   ├── services/         # Business logic
│   ├── utils/            # Utility functions (e.g., logging, tools)
│   └── __init__.py
├── config.yaml           # Configuration file (logs, ports, etc.)
├── install.sh            # Optional install script (e.g., Redis, MySQL)
├── main.py               # Application entry point
├── makefile              # Build or packaging script
├── requirements.txt      # Python dependencies list
├── .gitignore            # Git ignore settings
├── ReadMe.md             # Project documentation

---

Key File Descriptions:

• main.py: Entry point of the application
• install.sh: Optional script to install external services (e.g., Redis, MySQL)
• config.yaml: Centralized configuration management (port, logs, DB, etc.)
• requirements.txt: Python dependencies list (can also use poetry)

---

2.4 Usage & Extension

The generated project serves as a general-purpose API service template and can be extended for various business scenarios:

• ✅ Can be used with simplejrpc SDK to quickly build JSON-RPC services
• ✅ Also supports standalone use with custom business logic and structure
