PyBoiler

PyBoiler is a simple python 2.7 script to create a project template in a given directory.

Version

alpha-0.3.0

Installation

pip install pyboiler

Usage

PyBoiler is extremely simple to use.

Create a JSON file to match the folder structure you desire:

$: nano structure.json 

# Paste the below into your file and modify as you desire
[{'folder': 'source'}, 
 {'file': 'source/file1.txt'}, # Nested file
 {'folder': 'sublime'}, 
 {'file': 'sublime/file2.txt'}, 
 {'folder': 'docs'}, 
 {'file': 'docs/file3.txt'}, 
 {'file': 'docs/file4.txt'},
 {'file': 'README.md'}]

How to execute

usage: pyboiler.py [-h] -o PROJECT_PATH

required arguments:
	-o PROJECT_PATH, --project-directory PROJECT_PATH 
			Project's absolute path where the structure will be created  		
                    	
optional arguments:
  	-h, --help 	
  			Show this help message and exit
  			
    -s FOLDER_STRUCTURE, --folder-structure FOLDER_STRUCTURE
            JSON file containing the template folder/file
            structure to be created

Note: If the argument -i is not specified the script will use the default template (hardcoded)

Change Log

alpha-0.3.0

• Input file argument changed to -s instead of -i
• Temporarily removed jparser.py in order to make room for further serializers in future releases (XML, yaml etc...)
• Code refactoring and cleanup

alpha-0.2.0

• Folder and File structure template can be imported from a JSON file
• Added jparser.py to parse and validate the JSON file

Tests

This script has been tests on Mac OS X 10.9.4 only. There is no guarantee it will perform as expected on other Operating Systems.
