Options
Positional Arguments
- PROJECT_PATH
path where to generate/update project
Optional Arguments
- -h, --help
show a help message and exit
- -n NAME, --name NAME
installable name (as in pip install/PyPI, default: basename of PROJECT_PATH)
- -p PACKAGE_NAME, --package PACKAGE_NAME
package name (as in import, default: NAME)
- -d TEXT, --description TEXT
package description
- -l LICENSE, --license LICENSE
package license like MIT, AGPL-3.0-or-later, AGPL-3.0-only, Apache-2.0, Artistic-2.0, 0BSD, BSD-2-Clause, BSD-3-Clause, CC0-1.0, EPL-1.0, GPL-2.0-or-later, GPL-2.0-only, GPL-3.0-or-later, GPL-3.0-only, ISC, LGPL-2.0-or-later, LGPL-2.0-only, LGPL-3.0-or-later, LGPL-3.0-only, MPL-2.0, Unlicense, Proprietary (default: MIT)
- -u URL, --url URL
main website/reference URL for package
- -f, --force
force overwriting an existing directory
- -U, --update
update an existing project by replacing the most important files like setup.py etc. Use additionally --force to replace all scaffold files.
- -V, --version
show program’s version number and exit
- -v, --verbose
show additional information about current actions
- -vv, --very-verbose
show all available information about current actions
- -P, --pretend
do not create project, but displays the log of all operations as if it had been created
- --list-actions
do not create project, but show a list of planned actions
- --cirrus
add configuration file for Cirrus CI (includes --pre-commit)
- --config CONFIG_FILE [CONFIG_FILE ...]
config file to read PyScaffold’s preferences (see --help output for default)
- --no-config
prevent PyScaffold from reading its default config file
- --save-config [SAVE_CONFIG]
save the given options in a config file (see --help output for default)
- --github-actions
add configuration file for GitHub Actions (includes --pre-commit)
- --gitlab
generate GitLab CI configuration files
- -i, --interactive
interactively choose and configure PyScaffold’s parameters
- --namespace NS1[.NS2]
put your project inside a namespace package (default: use no namespace)
- --no-pyproject
do not include a pyproject.toml file in the project root, and thus avoid isolated builds as defined in PEP517 / 518 [not recommended]
- --no-skeleton
omit creation of skeleton.py and test_skeleton.py
- --no-tox
prevent a tox configuration file from being created
- --pre-commit
generate pre-commit configuration file
- --venv [VENV]
create a virtual environment for the project (using virtualenv or stdlib’s venv). Default location: “.venv”. If virtualenv is available, it will be used, since it has some advantages over stdlib’s venv (such as being faster, see https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/stable/). Notice that even if part of Python’s stdlib, venv is not guaranteed to be installed; some OS/distributions (such as Ubuntu) require an explicit installation. If you have problems, try installing virtualenv with pip(1) and run the command again.
- --venv-install PACKAGE [PACKAGE ...]
install packages inside the created venv. The packages can have dependency ranges as if they would be written to a requirements.txt file, but remember to use quotes to avoid messing with the terminal
