This is a simple program which you can use to create a new Python project from a built-in template. It uses the Nancy templating system.

Installation

pip install new-python-project

Creating a new project

Run new-python-project DIRECTORY. The program will prompt you for basic information about the project, attempting to give sensible default values, and then create the project in the given directory.

You can add the --github option to automatically create a GitHub project.

You can also store project information in a TOML file; see sample.toml for a commented example.

See new-python-project --help for more information.

You can run your new program:

cd /path/to/new-project
make build
PYTHONPATH=. python -m project_name

The project is set up in a new git repository with a pyproject.toml and Makefile to build, test and publish it, and basic command-line handling.
