Templates

A collection of templates to support the development of new and old projects.

Bases and Addons

Bases are the foundation of a project, they are the starting point. Addons are the extra features that can be added to a project.

Cookiecutter

This repository maintains multiple cookiecutter templates.

To configure a cookie cutter template, create a cookiecutter.json file in the root of the template directory and add your folder with the templated files. Folder names can also be templated, so you can use the @{{ cookiecutter.project_slug }} variable in the folder name.

Example:

mkdocs
├── @{{ cookiecutter.project_slug }}
│   ├── docs
│   │   ├── README.md
│   │   ├── faq.md
│   │   ├── getting-started.md
│   │   ├── index.md
│   │   └── requirements.txt
│   └── mkdocs.yaml
└── cookiecutter.json

All the variables in the cookiecutter.json file are required to be used at least once in the template files otherwise an error will be produced.

Tamcli

The tamcli tool is used to generate projects from the templates. It is a wrapper around the cookiecutter tool that adds some additional functionality like providing static input for the cookiecutter variables.
