Welcome to the python-module-skeleton instructions!

Context

This repository is meant to be used as a template for new Python modules at Pupil Labs. It is based on https://blog.jaraco.com/skeleton/

Creating a new repository

In order to create a new repo from the template follow these steps:

# create a folder `project-name` and initializes it as an empty git repository
git init project-name
cd project-name

# clones the template contents into the new repo
git pull https://github.com/pupil-labs/python-module-skeleton.git

First things to edit

1. Open setup.cfg and edit the package's meta data accordingly
2. Rename the src/pupil_labs/project_name folder accordingly. Keep it in the pupil_labs folder to let your module be part of the Pupil Labs namespace (import pupil_labs.project_name)

Make your package available to others

To make your package available to others, create a new, empty Github or Gitlab repository, copy its URL, and add it as a git remote. Then push the main branch.

git add origin <copied url>
git push origin main
