Python App Skeleton

PyPI GitHub Actions

Package skeleton for a Python app.

Description

Bootstrap a new Python app in less than a minute.

Features

Bootstrapping a New Project

  1. Create an empty (non-initialized) repository on GitHub.

  2. Clone the master branch of this repository with

    $ git clone --single-branch https://github.com/makenew/python-app.git new-python-app
    $ cd new-python-app

    Optionally, reset to the latest release with

    $ git reset --hard <version-tag>
  3. Run

    $ ./makenew.sh

    This will replace the boilerplate, delete itself, remove the git remote, remove upstream tags, and stage changes for commit.

  4. Create the required GitHub repository secrets

  5. Review, commit, and push the changes to GitHub with

    $ git diff --cached
    $ git commit -m "Replace makenew boilerplate"
    $ git remote add origin git@github.com:<user>/<new-python-app>.git
    $ git push -u origin master
  6. Ensure the GitHub action passes, then publish the initial version of the package with

    $ poetry install
    $ poetry version patch
    $ make version

Updating

If you want to pull in future updates from this skeleton, you can fetch and merge in changes from this repository.

Add this as a new remote with

$ git remote rename origin upstream

and then configure your origin branch as normal.

Otherwise, add this as a new remote with

$ git remote add upstream git@github.com:makenew/python-app.git

You can then fetch and merge changes with

$ git fetch --no-tags upstream
$ git merge upstream/master

Changelog

Note that CHANGELOG.md is just a template for this skeleton. The actual changes for this project are documented in the commit history and summarized under Releases.

Usage

Docker container

The service is distributed as a Docker container on GitHub Container Registry. To run locally, add configuration to config/local.json, then pull and run the image with

$ docker run --read-only --init --publish 8080:8080 \
  --volume "$(pwd)/config/local.json:/usr/src/app/config/local.json" \
  ghcr.io/makenew/python-app

Installation

This package is also registered on the Python Package Index (PyPI) as makenew-python-app.

Install it with

$ poetry add makenew-python-app

Development and Testing

Quickstart

$ git clone https://github.com/makenew/python-app.git
$ cd python-app
$ poetry install

Run each command below in a separate terminal window:

$ make watch
$ make server

Primary development tasks are defined in the Makefile.

Source Code

The source code is hosted on GitHub. Clone the project with

$ git clone https://github.com/makenew/python-app.git

Requirements

You will need Python 3 and Poetry.

Install the development dependencies with

$ poetry install

Tests

Lint code with

$ make lint

Run tests with

$ make test

Run tests on changes with

$ make watch

Publishing

Use the poetry version command to release a new version. Then run make version to commit and push a new git tag which will trigger a GitHub action.

Publishing may be triggered using a version workflow_dispatch on GitHub Actions.

GitHub Actions

GitHub Actions should already be configured: this section is for reference only.

The following repository secrets must be set on GitHub Actions.

  • PYPI_API_TOKEN: API token for publishing on PyPI.

  • GH_USER: The GitHub user’s username to pull and push containers.

  • GH_TOKEN: A personal access token for the user.

These must be set manually.

Secrets for Optional GitHub Actions

The version and format GitHub actions require a user with write access to the repository including access to read and write packages. Set these additional secrets to enable the action:

  • GH_TOKEN: A personal access token for the user.

  • GIT_USER_NAME: The name to set for Git commits.

  • GIT_USER_EMAIL: The email to set for Git commits.

  • GPG_PRIVATE_KEY: The GPG private key.

  • GPG_PASSPHRASE: The GPG key passphrase.

Contributing

Please submit and comment on bug reports and feature requests.

To submit a patch:

  1. Fork it (https://github.com/makenew/python-app/fork).

  2. Create your feature branch (git checkout -b my-new-feature).

  3. Make changes.

  4. Commit your changes (git commit -am ‘Add some feature’).

  5. Push to the branch (git push origin my-new-feature).

  6. Create a new Pull Request.

A note on package security

PyPI is a repository for distributing packages, not a service for auditing them. While third-party security researchers and our staff do their best to detect and remove malicious packages, PyPI cannot guarantee the quality, security or suitability of any given package.
