CATMAID-ext-cookiecutter

This is a cookiecutter template for CATMAID extensions.

It builds most of the necessary boilerplate, including but not limited to:

• setup.py for installing the extension with pip
• .travis.yml for running tests against CATMAID
• An API endpoint for checking whether the extension is installed
• A unit test for hitting that endpoint
• An empty frontend widget

It assumes you are using the same (recommended) tool stack as CATMAID: github, travis-ci, and coveralls.

Usage

For more details, see the cookiecutter repo and docs

tl;dr

• Install cookiecutter : pip install --user cookiecutter
• Use cookiecutter to fetch and use this template: cookiecutter gh:clbarnes/CATMAID-ext-cookiecutter

Contributing

This is unlikely to be actively maintained as CATMAID changes (e.g. directory reorganisation, travis build steps, widget conventions), but pull requests to update it are welcome!
