DevForge — Dynamic Python Project Bootstrap & Automation

pip install pydevforge
devforge

DevForge is a provider-based, composable project generator. No fixed templates, no giant if/elif chains — every technology is a provider that contributes packages, environment, files, Docker services and wizard questions.

Note: the PyPI distribution is pydevforge, the import package stays devforge (from devforge import ProjectBuilder) and the CLI stays devforge.

Quick start

pip install pydevforge
devforge --help
devforge create --help

# Non-interactive example
devforge create --name my-api --framework fastapi --database postgresql \
  --docker --cicd github-actions --output ./out --overwrite

# Preview without writing
devforge create --name demo --framework django --database postgresql --dry-run

# Programmatic API
python -c "
from devforge import ProjectBuilder
b = ProjectBuilder()
b.configure(name='my-api', framework='fastapi', database='postgresql', docker=True)
print(b.dry_run())
b.generate('./out', overwrite=True)
"

Architecture

Core Engine -> Provider Registry -> Providers -> Generator -> Ready Project

See docs/ for installation, wizard, providers, plugin development, manifest, commands and troubleshooting.

Plugin development

from devforge import Provider

class MongoProvider(Provider):
    name = "mongodb"
    display_name = "MongoDB"
    category = "database"
    packages = ["pymongo>=4.0"]

Register via entry point group devforge.providers — no core edits needed.
