Sprouter

⚡ Sprouter is a simple project setup utility. It creates a Python virtual environment, installs dependencies, and prepares a working directory for development — all from a single CLI entrypoint.

Think of it as a one-shot “project scaffolder” that asks where you want your project to live and does the boring setup for you.

---

✨ Features

• Prompts for a target directory (or take it as a CLI argument).
• Builds a .venv virtual environment inside that directory.
• Installs all dependencies listed in requirements.txt.
• Ensures idempotency: if .venv already exists, it won’t overwrite it.
• Can be wired up with pyproject.toml to install as a global command.

---

🚀 Usage

Clone or download this repo, then run:

cd sprouter
python3 -m sprouter.cli ~/Projects/myapp

You’ll see:

⚡ Creating virtualenv at /home/you/Projects/myapp/.venv
⚡ Installing dependencies from requirements.txt

Activate your environment:

source ~/Projects/myapp/.venv/bin/activate

Windows (PowerShell):

.\Projects\myapp\.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1

---

🛠 Development

The code is split into two modules:

• core.py → core logic for environment creation & pip installs.
• cli.py → command-line interface, argument parsing, user prompts.

This separation makes it easy to import sprouter.core in other Python scripts without invoking the CLI.

📦 Packaging (optional)

To install sprouter as a system-wide command:

1. Add this to your pyproject.toml:

   [project]
   name = "sprouter"
   version = "0.1.0"
   dependencies = []
   
   [project.scripts]
   bootstrapper = "sprouter.cli:main"
   

2. Install in editable mode:

   pip install -e .
   

3. Now you can run:

   sprouter ~/Projects/myapp
