pde 1.3.0

PDE is a simple development environment setup script for python projects.

Python-DevEnv (PDE) is a simple development environment setup script for Python projects.

It asks a series of questions about your project, then generate an appropriate setup.py and README.rst.

If you like, it can also generate a .pylintrc with some useful settings for Pylint. (Use -p.) The settings are a little more liberal then the basic options, but still very useful.

This project will not be maintained any further as Tyrant will be taking over as a project setup generator and assistant with many more features then pde could ever have. Tyrant can be found here https://github.com/Nekroze/tyrant

Output Usage

The generated setup script has additional commands that should be useful when working on any Python project.

python setup.py test: Automatically runs unittest discovery on the provided test directory.

python setup.py style: Run pylint style checking on the source directory provided. If the -p switch was not used, this will complain because there will be no .pylintrc file in the project directory however one can be manually made.

python setup.py prep: Will run the test and style command. Handy to ensure that everything is working before a distribution or commit.

python setup.py commit [-m message]: Allows simple git integration by running git add . followed by a git commit with an optional message provided by the -m switch.

python setup.py pypiup: Performs a distutils check to ensure that project meta data is up to spec then creates an sdist and attempts to upload it to the PyPi package repository.
