You know how, when you want to make a new project, you basically take an<br>
existing one, like nova, copy files, and then start deleting? Nobody<br>
likes that.<br>
<br>
Recently, cookiecutter came to my attention, so we put together a<br>
cookiecutter repo for openstack projects to make creating a new one easier:<br>
<br>
<a href="https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack-dev/cookiecutter" target="_blank">https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack-dev/cookiecutter</a><br>
<br>
It's pretty easy to use. First, install cookiecutter:<br>
<br>
sudo pip install cookiecutter<br>
<br>
Next, tell cookiecutter you'd like to create a new project based on the<br>
openstack template:<br>
<br>
cookiecutter git://<a href="http://git.openstack.org/openstack-dev/cookiecutter.git" target="_blank">git.openstack.org/openstack-dev/cookiecutter.git</a><br>
<br>
Cookiecutter will then ask you three questions:<br>
<br>
a) What repo groups should it go in? (eg. openstack, openstack-infra,<br>
stackforge)<br>
b) What is the name of the repo? (eg. mynewproject)<br>
c) What is the project's short description? (eg. "OpenStack Wordpress as<br>
a Service")<br>
<br>
And boom, you'll have a directory all set up with your new project ready<br>
and waiting for a "git init ; git add . ; git commit"<br>
<br>
Hope this helps folks out - and we'll try to keep it up to date with<br>
things that become "best practices" - patches welcome on that front.<br>
<br>
Monty<br>
