How to use PythonProjectBootstrapper
Running the Executable
From a terminal window, run one of the commands below. You will be asked a series of questions when generating a python project, then guided through configuration activities to ensure that the project is ready for use.


Scenario
Command Line
Output


Create a project for a python package
PythonProjectBootstrapper package <output_dir>

┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Python Package ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ This project creates a Python package hosted on GitHub that uploads a Python wheel to PyPi. It also includes opt-in functionality to create docker images that ensure the exact │
│ reproducibility of all commits (which is especially useful for scientific software). │
│ │
│ If you continue, you will be asked a series of questions about your project and given step-by-step instructions on how to set up your project so that it works with 3rd party │
│ solutions (GitHub, PyPi, etc.). │
│ │
│ The entire process should take about 20 minutes to complete. │
