cookiecutter-poetic-python

A Cookiecutter project template that uses Poetry to manage Python Projects

Getting started

WARNING This template requires Poetry equal 1.5.2 or newer due to the use of dependency groups, and Python at least 3.9.

Install cookiecutter:

pip install cookiecutter

Use the template:

cookiecutter https://github.com/John15321/cookiecutter-poetic-python

Fill out the questions asked by the cookiecutter and wait for the project to be created. It dynamically adds and checks dependencies that will be by default added to the project, therefore recomputing the whole dependency graph will take some time, but it will be done only once.

What this template does

• Sets up sphinx documentation
• Sets up tox configuration
• Sets up basic CI/CD configuration for GitHub that checks:
  • Linting with pylint
  • Formatting with black and isort
  • Building documentation
  • Building the source and built distribution
  • Running tests
• Package structure with the newest and best pyproject.toml guidelines
• Dependencies for testing, formatting, linting etc. separated in the pyproject.toml file for ease of use and optimization

Poetry has very good and extensive documentation so go ahead and read it:
