Features

Did someone say features?

  • Cross-platform: Windows, Mac, and Linux are officially supported.

  • Works with Python 2.7, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, and PyPy. (But you don't have to know/write Python code to use Cookiecutter.)

  • Project templates can be in any programming language or markup format: Python, JavaScript, Ruby, CoffeeScript, RST, Markdown, CSS, HTML, you name it. You can use multiple languages in the same project template.

  • Simple command line usage:

    # Create project from the cookiecutter-pypackage.git repo template
# You'll be prompted to enter values.
# Then it'll create your Python package in the current working directory,
# based on those values.
$ cookiecutter https://github.com/audreyr/cookiecutter-pypackage
# For the sake of brevity, repos on GitHub can just use the 'gh' prefix
$ cookiecutter gh:audreyr/cookiecutter-pypackage

  • Can also use it at the command line with a local template:

    # Create project in the current working directory, from the local
# cookiecutter-pypackage/ template
$ cookiecutter cookiecutter-pypackage/

  • Or use it from Python:

    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')

  • Directory names and filenames can be templated. For example:

    {{cookiecutter.repo_name}}/{{cookiecutter.repo_name}}/{{cookiecutter.repo_name}}.py

  • Supports unlimited levels of directory nesting.

  • 100% of templating is done with Jinja2. This includes file and directory names.

  • Simply define your template variables in a cookiecutter.json file. For example:

    {
    "full_name": "Audrey Roy",
    "email": "[email protected]",
    "project_name": "Complexity",
    "repo_name": "complexity",
    "project_short_description": "Refreshingly simple static site generator.",
    "release_date": "2013-07-10",
    "year": "2013",
    "version": "0.1.1"
}

  • Unless you suppress it with --no-input, you are prompted for input:

    • Prompts are the keys in cookiecutter.json.
    • Default responses are the values in cookiecutter.json.
    • Prompts are shown in order.

  • Cross-platform support for ~/.cookiecutterrc files:

    default_context:
    full_name: "Audrey Roy"
    email: "[email protected]"
    github_username: "audreyr"
cookiecutters_dir: "~/.cookiecutters/"

  • Cookiecutters (cloned Cookiecutter project templates) are put into ~/.cookiecutters/ by default, or cookiecutters_dir if specified.

  • You can use local cookiecutters, or remote cookiecutters directly from Git repos or from Mercurial repos on Bitbucket.

  • Default context: specify key/value pairs that you want used as defaults whenever you generate a project

  • Direct access to the Cookiecutter API allows for injection of extra context.

  • Pre- and post-generate hooks: Python or shell scripts to run before or after generating a project.

  • Paths to local projects can be specified as absolute or relative.

  • Projects are always generated to your current directory.

Community

The core committer team is @audreyr, @pydanny, @michaeljoseph, @pfmoore, and @hackebrot. We welcome you and invite you to participate.

Stuck? Try one of the following:

  • See the Troubleshooting page.
  • Ask for help on Stack Overflow.
  • You are strongly encouraged to file an issue about the problem, even if it's just "I can't get it to work on this cookiecutter" with a link to your cookiecutter. Don't worry about naming/pinpointing the issue properly.
  • Ask for help on Gitter if you must (but please try one of the other options first, so that others can benefit from the discussion)

Development on Cookiecutter is community-driven:

  • Huge thanks to all the contributors who have pitched in to help make Cookiecutter an even better tool.
  • Everyone is invited to contribute. Read the contributing instructions, then get started.

Encouragement is unbelievably motivating. If you want more work done on Cookiecutter, show support:

Got criticism or complaints?

  • File an issue so that Cookiecutter can be improved. Be friendly and constructive about what could be better. Make detailed suggestions.
  • Keep us in the loop so that we can help. For example, if you are discussing problems with Cookiecutter on a mailing list, file an issue where you link to the discussion thread and/or cc at least 1 core committer on the email.
  • Be encouraging. A comment like "This function ought to be rewritten like this" is much more likely to result in action than a comment like "Eww, look how bad this function is."

Waiting for a response to an issue/question?

  • Be patient and persistent. All issues are on the core committer team's radar and will be considered thoughtfully, but we have a lot of issues to work through. If urgent, it's fine to ping a core committer in the issue with a reminder.
  • Ask others to comment, discuss, review, etc.
  • Search the Cookiecutter repo for issues related to yours.
  • Need a fix/feature/release/help urgently, and can't wait? @audreyr is available for hire for consultation or custom development.
