This is a little Python-Bash-Powershell project that creates a repo on your Github account and clone it on your computer, so you no more need to do it yourself.
This project automates the project creation :
- creates the repository in your Github account
- creates the folder in the directory you indicates by cloning the repo
- creates the files you indicates according to the project type
- and open the project with your IDE
I used Python with Selenium for web scraping to log in Github and create the repository and bash and powershell scripts to clone the repository.
This script uses Selenium to create a repository in your Github account. It does not work everytime because Github can use double auth when Python log in but it is funny to look at.

You need the driver of your browser to make it work, (chrome, firefox...) check the Selenium doc here

Put your Github pseudo or email in the main python file line 34
input_login.send_keys("your_email")- Put your Github pseudo in the URL so Python can go to your new repo line 53
driver.get("https://github.com/" + "your_pseudo/" + repo_name)- Update the scipt call line 59 :
if you use bash :
subprocess.call(['bash', './scripts/commands_create_project.sh', repo_name, project_type, url_to_clone])if you use powershell :
subprocess.call(['powershell', './scripts/commands_create_project.ps1', repo_name, project_type url_to_clone])- Then either in the bash or powershell script, update the path you want the repo will be cloned
cd your_path/$project_type- Test it in a terminal
>python main.py repo_name project_type github_pwd
