pimp-my-repo 0.4.11

✨ Enhance your Python repository by adding cutting-edge development tools

Pimp My Repo

🧙🏼‍♂️ One command to modernize them all — strict linting, type checking, and CI for your legacy Python repo, with near-zero manual work.

Run it once in your repo root — it creates its own branch, so you can always walk away. No strings attached:

uvx pimp-my-repo

Why legacy repos stay legacy

Adopting strict linting and type checking sounds great — until you run Ruff or Mypy for the first time and see 17,000 violations. Fixing them all before you can enforce a single rule isn't practical, so the tools stay off or "loose," and the debt compounds.

The baseline approach

pimp-my-repo skips the manual fix step entirely:

1. Configures tools in strict mode — Ruff with all rules enabled, Mypy with --strict.
2. Suppresses all existing violations — automatically adds # noqa and # type: ignore to every current offender.
3. Commits the result — you get a clean, passing CI baseline immediately.

New code must comply from day one. Legacy violations are silenced but visible — fix them incrementally, at your own pace, without blocking anyone.

What gets added

• 🚀 uv — modern dependency management
• ✨ Ruff — linting and formatting, strict mode, all existing violations suppressed
• 🐍 Mypy — static type checking, strict mode, all existing errors suppressed
• 🏖️ pre-commit — hooks to enforce quality before every commit
• 🎢 just — task runner with install, test, and lint recipes out of the box
• 🏗️ CI (coming soon) — GitHub Actions or GitLab Pipeline configuration
