A cookiecutter template that creates a basic Python setuptools project, which can be later on augmented with various optional accessories. See the demo for getting a 1ˢᵗ impression on how this Cookiecutter template can be used, including screenshots of the terminal session.
The resulting project uses
rituals
and invoke
for task automation, and
setuptools
for building and distributing the project.
A provided autoenv script takes care
of creating a fully boot-strapped virtualenv or venv – it can also be called manually
if you don't want to install autoenv.
Other integrated tools are pylint for code quality checking,
pytest for testing support, and a Travis CI configuration.

To update your project from the current version of the template, you can re-create it with the original inputs and merge the changes with your repository, as outlined below.
First, convert the cookiecutter.json file
to a .cookiecutterrc one by calling this command:
python3 -c \
"import sys,json,yaml; d=json.load(sys.stdin); yaml.dump(d, sys.stdout)" \
<cookiecutter.json
The resulting output can be added to a copy of your ~/.cookiecutterrc, and then
used in a new cookiecutter call:
cp ~/.cookiecutterrc .
vi .cookiecutterrc # see above
cookiecutter --no-input --config-file .cookiecutterrc «project-template»
You now have a current copy of your project in a sub-directory of your workdir. Make sure you have everything committed and no local pending changes, then call:
cp -rp «project-name»/{.??*,*} .
git diff
Now comes the labor-intensive part, checking all the changes and integrating them.
You can make that a bit easier by using git:
git checkout -b cookiecutter v0
cp -rp «project-name»/{.??*,*} .
git commit -m "cookiecutter template update"
git checkout master
git merge cookiecutter
This is assuming you have committed the original unchanged template and
marked it with the v0 tag. Now you need to resolve all the conflicts
you get (and you normally get plenty) – still a lot of work, but a little better.

will comprise the foundation of your project, they're unlicensed using the

All other files outside the {{cookiecutter.repo_name}} directory are
MIT-licensed – this effectively means you only have to attribute this project
if you re-use all or parts of the contained templating mechanics and documentation.
