so-pip 0.3.0

Generate packages from Stackoverflow answers

so_pip

Everyone copies code from StackOverflow, but no one is formalizing it.

This will vendorize the source code of question or answer into a folder and generate the accessory files to make it look like a python package.

The feature-set overlaps a bit with cookie cutter, vendorizing libraries and stackoverflow search cli's.

Installation

Requires Python 3.11+

pip install so_pip
# or
pipenv install so_pip --pre --skip-lock

so_pip vendorize my_name --question=31049648 --output=output

Using via dockerhub

# for mac, unix, cmd.exe, powershell
docker pull matthewdeanmartin/so_pip
docker run --rm -i -v "$PWD/data:/data" matthewdeanmartin/so_pip --help

If you use git bash/mingw64/cygwin, see run.sh because docker needs help doing a volume mount.
