cookiecutter-pypackage

Cookiecutter template for a Python package.

Features

  • Vanilla testing setup with unittest and python setup.py test
  • Travis-CI: Ready for Travis Continuous Integration testing
  • Tox testing: Setup to easily test for Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5
  • Sphinx docs: Documentation ready for generation with, for example, ReadTheDocs
  • Bumpversion: Pre-configured version bumping with a single command
  • Auto-release to PyPI when you push a new tag to master (optional)

Quickstart

Generate a Python package project:

cookiecutter https://github.com/s4z/cookiecutter-pypackage.git

Then:

  • Create a repo and put it there.
  • Add the repo to your Travis CI account.
  • Run the script travis_pypi_setup.py to encrypt your PyPI password in Travis config and activate automated deployment on PyPI when you push a new tag to master branch.
  • Add the repo to your ReadTheDocs account + turn on the ReadTheDocs service hook.
  • Release your package the standard Python way. Here's a release checklist: https://gist.github.com/audreyr/5990987
  • (Optional) If you feel like pinning the requirements for your package, you can add a requirements.txt that specifies packages and version numbers.

For more details, see the cookiecutter-pypackage tutorial.

Fork This / Create Your Own

If you have differences in your preferred setup, I encourage you to fork this to create your own version. Or create your own; it doesn't strictly have to be a fork.

  • Once you have your own version working, add it to the Similar Cookiecutter Templates list above with a brief description.
  • It's up to you whether or not to rename your fork/own version. Do whatever you think sounds good.

I also accept pull requests on this, if they're small, atomic, and if they make my own packaging experience better.
