Professional Python Project Initializer with uv, ml/dl support, and embedded config.

Project description

🐍 ViperX

Professional Python Project Initializer The modern, snake-fast way to bootstrap Python projects.

ViperX is a CLI tool designed to generate production-ready Python projects instantly. It leverages uv for blazing fast dependency management and offers specialized templates for Machine Learning (ml) and Deep Learning (dl).

✨ Features

  • Blazing Fast: Built on top of uv.
  • Pre-configured: pyproject.toml, proper src layout, ruff ready.
  • ML/DL First: Templates with torch, tensorflow, kagglehub and Smart Caching.
  • Smart Caching: Auto-downloads and caches datasets to ~/.cache/viperx/data (or local data/).
  • Strict Isolation: Environment variables (.env) isolated in src/<pkg>/ for better security.
  • Config-in-Package: Solves the "Colab/Kaggle doesn't see my config" problem.
  • Platform Agnostic: Works on Local, VSCode, Colab, and Kaggle.
  • Safe Mode: Never overwrites or deletes files automatically—reports changes for manual action.

📦 Installation

Recommended (Global Tool)

pipx install viperx

Alternative (uv)

uv tool install viperx

🚀 Quick Start

# Classic Package
viperx config -n my-lib

# Machine Learning Project
viperx config -n churn-prediction -t ml --env

# Deep Learning Project (PyTorch)
viperx config -n deep-vision -t dl -f pytorch

# Declarative Config (Infrastructure as Code)
viperx config get                   # Generate template
viperx config -c viperx.yaml        # Apply config

📝 Declarative Config (viperx.yaml)

project:
  name: "my-project"
  description: "A cool project"
  author: "Your Name"
  license: "MIT"
  builder: "uv"

settings:
  type: "classic"          # classic | ml | dl
  use_env: false
  use_config: true
  use_tests: true

workspace:
  packages:
    - name: "api"
      type: "classic"
    - name: "ml-core"
      type: "ml"
      use_env: true

🔒 Safe Mode Philosophy

ViperX follows a non-destructive approach:

Action Behavior
Add ✅ Creates new files/packages
Update ⚠️ Reports changes, user decides
Delete ❌ Never deletes—warns user
Overwrite ❌ Never overwrites existing files

🧪 Test Coverage

uv run pytest src/viperx/tests
# 34 tests | 77% coverage

Test Structure:

  • unit/ - Validation (5 tests)
  • functional/ - CLI, licenses, project types (16 tests)
  • scenarios/ - Classic, workspace, updates (11 tests)
  • integration/ - E2E lifecycle (2 tests)
