... happened again. Just a few lines of code to solve a small problem. Turns into something a little more work intensive than expected and deserves a more formal structure. So how was that python package structured again?

So as a side project and to offload this information into some file the Python Package Generator came into existence.

It's a small, stupidly simple bash script.

It does:

• setup the folder structure at your desired location
• create some default files
• add a sub-module with a logging configuration
• setup a virtual environment (venv)
• initialize a git repository

The structure will look like this:

package-name/
|- src/
|  |- __init__.py
|  |- package_name.py
|  |- log/
|     |- __init__py
|     |- log.py
|- venv/ (not included in git)
|  |- ....
|- LICENSE (THE UNLICENSE - change to your liking)
|- pyproject.toml
|- README.md
|- run.sh
|- setup.cfg
|- setup.py
|- .gitignore
