The starting point for a keg library

KegBase Library

This repository is the starting point for a Keg library. It makes some assumptions, for example that you want to support Python 2.7, 3.4, and 3.5, you want your line length to be 100, and a whole host of other things.

The point being, you can start a new library much quicker now.

Usage

Clone the repo down.

$ git clone [e-mail]:level12/keg-baselib

Then change some important things...

setup.py:

• name
• install_requires
• url
• description

tox.ini:

• change the folder that --cov points at

lib:

• change the name of your library from lib to something a little more helpful, though you could keep that name if you want to, though you might need to do some extra stuff in setup.py

Why not something else

Git cloning is about as easy as it gets. Using cookie cutter tools has proven to be rather challenging. This gets you 95% of the way there, with very little effort. If you keep the git history as well, you can even track updates to this repo and merge them into your project over time.
