0.7.0 (2013-11-09)

This is a release with significant improvements and changes. Please read through this list before you upgrade.

New features:

  • Support for --checkout argument, thanks to @foobacca.
  • Support for pre-generate and post-generate hooks, thanks to @raphigaziano. Hooks are Python or shell scripts that run before and/or after your project is generated.
  • Support for absolute paths to cookiecutters, thanks to @krallin.
  • Support for Mercurial version control system, thanks to @pokoli.
  • When a cookiecutter contains invalid Jinja2 syntax, you get a better message that shows the location of the TemplateSyntaxError. Thanks to @benjixx.
  • Can now prompt the user to enter values during generation from a local cookiecutter, thanks to @ThomasChiroux. This is now always the default behavior. Prompts can also be supressed with --no-input.
  • Your cloned cookiecutters are stored by default in your ~/.cookiecutters/ directory (or Windows equivalent). The location is configurable. (This is a major change from the pre-0.7.0 behavior, where cloned cookiecutters were deleted at the end of project generation.) Thanks @raphigaziano.
  • User config in a ~/.cookiecutterrc file, thanks to @raphigaziano. Configurable settings are cookiecutters_dir and default_context.
  • File permissions are now preserved during project generation, thanks to @benjixx.

Bug fixes:

  • Unicode issues with prompts and answers are fixed, thanks to @s-m-i-t-a.
  • The test suite now runs on Windows, which was a major effort. Thanks to @pydanny, who collaborated on this with me.

Other changes:

  • Quite a bit of refactoring and API changes.
  • Lots of documentation improvements. Thanks @sloria, @alex, @pydanny, @freakboy3742, @es128, @rolo.
  • Better naming and organization of test suite.
  • A CookiecutterCleanSystemTestCase to use for unit tests affected by the user's config and cookiecutters directory.
  • Improvements to the project's Makefile.
  • Improvements to tests. Thanks @gperetin, @s-m-i-t-a.
  • Removal of subprocess32 dependency. Now using non-context manager version of subprocess.Popen for Python 2 compatibility.
  • Removal of cookiecutter's cleanup module.
  • A bit of setup.py cleanup, thanks to @oubiga.
  • Now depends on binaryornot 0.2.0.

0.6.4 (2013-08-21)

  • Windows support officially added.
  • Fix TemplateNotFound Exception on Windows (#37).

0.6.3 (2013-08-20)

  • Fix copying of binary files in nested paths (#41), thanks to @sloria.

0.6.2 (2013-08-19)

  • Depend on Jinja2>=2.4 instead of Jinja2==2.7.
  • Fix errors on attempt to render binary files. Copy them over from the project template without rendering.
  • Fix Python 2.6/2.7 UnicodeDecodeError when values containing Unicode chars are in cookiecutter.json.
  • Set encoding in Python 3 unicode_open() to always be utf-8.

0.6.1 (2013-08-12)

  • Improved project template finding. Now looks for the occurrence of {{, cookiecutter, and }} in a directory name.
  • Fix help message for input_dir arg at command prompt.
  • Minor edge cases found and corrected, as a result of improved test coverage.

0.6.0 (2013-08-08)

  • Config is now in a single cookiecutter.json instead of in json/.
  • When you create a project from a git repo template, Cookiecutter prompts you to enter custom values for the fields defined in cookiecutter.json.

0.5 (2013-07-28)

  • Friendlier, more simplified command line usage:

    # Create project from the cookiecutter-pypackage/ template
    $ cookiecutter cookiecutter-pypackage/
    
    # Create project from the cookiecutter-pypackage.git repo template
    $ cookiecutter https://github.com/audreyr/cookiecutter-pypackage.git
    
  • Can now use Cookiecutter from Python as a package:

    from cookiecutter.main import cookiecutter
    
    # Create project from the cookiecutter-pypackage/ template
    cookiecutter('cookiecutter-pypackage/')
    
    # Create project from the cookiecutter-pypackage.git repo template
    cookiecutter('https://github.com/audreyr/cookiecutter-pypackage.git')
    
  • Internal refactor to remove any code that changes the working directory.

0.4 (2013-07-22)

  • Only takes in one argument now: the input directory. The output directory is generated by rendering the name of the input directory.
  • Output directory cannot be the same as input directory.

0.3 (2013-07-17)

  • Takes in command line args for the input and output directories.

0.2.1 (2013-07-17)

  • Minor cleanup.

0.2 (2013-07-17)

Bumped to "Development Status :: 3 - Alpha".

  • Works with any type of text file.
  • Directory names and filenames can be templated.

0.1.0 (2013-07-11)

  • First release on PyPI.
