Please describe the package here in few sentences; the goal is about a paragraph. Something easy to digest, but not too brief to give a good idea of what the package is for. For example, this is not a real package, it's a package template for "unpacking" on GitHub using their Repository Templates feature. You won't find this on the Python Package Index (Pypi).
Provide a more detailed or in-depth description here, being sure to cover both rationale and goals.
Installing $project
is easy, just execute the following in a terminal:
pip install $project
Note: We strongly recommend always using a container, virtualization, or sandboxing environment of some kind when developing using Python. We highly recommend use of the Python standard venv
("virtual environment") mechanism.
If you add $project
to the install_requires
argument of the call to setup()
in your application's setup.py
or setup.cfg
files, $project will be automatically installed and made available when your own application or library is installed. Use $project ~= $version
to get all bug fixes for the current release while ensuring that large breaking changes are not installed by limiting to the same major/minor, >= the given patch level.
This package has the following dependencies:
- A Python interpreter compatible with CPython 3.7 and or newer, i.e. official CPython or Pypy.
Development takes place on GitHub in the $repo project. Issue tracking, documentation, and downloads are provided there.
Installing the current development version requires Git), a distributed source code management system. If you have Git you can run the following to download and link the development version into your Python runtime:
git clone https://github.com/marrow/$repo.git
pip install -e '$repo[development]'
You can then upgrade to the latest version at any time, from within that source folder:
git pull
pip install -e '.[development]'
If you would like to make changes and contribute them back to the project, fork the GitHub project, make your changes, and submit a pull request. This process is beyond the scope of this documentation; for more information see GitHub's documentation.
Describe the basic steps required to utilize this package. Provide additional sections or subsections as needed. If this documentation exceeds an additional section or two, consider writing a GitBook instead.
This project has yet to make any releases. When it does, each release should be documented here with a sub-section for the version, and a bulleted list of itemized changes tagged with the kind of change, e.g. fixed, added, removed, or deprecated.
$project has been released under the MIT Open Source license.
