Contributing
This is Open Source software, so given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow. Your contributions are more than welcome.
This project is hosted on GitHub and these (common) rules apply:
Do use the issues tracker.
Let’s discuss any proposed change or fix in an issue, so your work is not done in vain - I hate to reject pull requests…

My Development Workflow
I try to develop pypi-template in a self-hosting way, which means that I run it from the repository on the repository itself.
Running pypi-template from the repository can be done according to the following steps:
Setup an Environment with Dependencies
PyPi Template is (highly optionated) convention driven and relies on Pyenv to keep everything nicely tucked away in virtual environments. So at this point avoiding Pyenv is not really an option.
$ git clone https://github.com/christophevg/pypi-template.git
$ cd pypi-template
$ pyenv virtualenv pypi-template
$ pyenv local pypi-template
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ make install
$ make run
And if everything goes well, PyPi Template is run on itself, reporting every file is up2date.
Running pypi-template from the Repository
As shown in the final command above, the Makefile
allows for running the application/package. The default RUN_CMD
is python -m package_name
without any arguments. Using RUN_ARGS
additional arguments can be added, which in case of PyPi Template itself is done in Makefile.mak
: RUN_ARGS = verbose debug apply
.
So, we can replace these to first edit alle variables and then actually apply them:
% make run RUN_ARGS="verbose edit all apply"
pyenv local pypi-template-run
python -m `cat .pypi-template | grep "^package_module_name" | cut -d":" -f2` verbose edit all apply
