Instructions

1. Analyze Project Type

Determine the project type from user requirements:

• FastAPI: REST APIs, microservices, async applications
• Django: Full-stack web applications, admin panels, ORM-heavy projects
• Library: Reusable packages, utilities, tools
• CLI: Command-line tools, automation scripts
• Generic: Standard Python applications

2. Initialize Project with uv

# Create new project with uv
uv init <project-name>
cd <project-name>

# Initialize git repository
git init
echo ".venv/" >> .gitignore
echo "*.pyc" >> .gitignore
echo "__pycache__/" >> .gitignore
echo ".pytest_cache/" >> .gitignore
echo ".ruff_cache/" >> .gitignore

# Create virtual environment
uv venv
source .venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate

3. Generate FastAPI Project Structure

pyproject.toml:

[project]
name = "project-name"
version = "0.1.0"
description = "FastAPI project description"
requires-python = ">=3.11"
dependencies = [
    "fastapi>=0.110.0",
    "uvicorn[standard]>=0.27.0",
    "pydantic>=2.6.0",
    "pydantic-settings>=2.1.0",
    "sqlalchemy>=2.0.0",
    "alembic>=1.13.0",
]

[project.optional-dependencies]
dev = [
    "pytest>=8.0.0",
    "pytest-asyncio>=0.23.0",
    "httpx>=0.26.0",
    "ruff>=0.2.0",
]

[tool.ruff]
line-length = 100
target-version = "py311"

[tool.ruff.lint]
select = ["E", "F", "I", "N", "W", "UP"]

[tool.pytest.ini_options]
testpaths = ["tests"]
asyncio_mode = "auto"

src/project_name/main.py:

from fastapi import FastAPI
from fastapi.middleware.cors import CORSMiddleware

from .api.v1.router import api_router
from .config import settings

app = FastAPI(
    title=settings.PROJECT_NAME,
    version=settings.VERSION,
    openapi_url=f"{settings.API_V1_PREFIX}/openapi.json",
)

app.add_middleware(
    CORSMiddleware,
    allow_origins=settings.ALLOWED_ORIGINS,
    allow_credentials=True,
    allow_methods=["*"],
    allow_headers=["*"],
)

app.include_router(api_router, prefix=settings.API_V1_PREFIX)

@app.get("/health")
async def health_check() -> dict[str, str]:
    return {"status": "healthy"}

4. Generate Django Project Structure

# Install Django with uv
uv add django django-environ django-debug-toolbar

# Create Django project
django-admin startproject config .
python manage.py startapp core

pyproject.toml for Django:

[project]
name = "django-project"
version = "0.1.0"
requires-python = ">=3.11"
dependencies = [
    "django>=5.0.0",
    "django-environ>=0.11.0",
    "psycopg[binary]>=3.1.0",
    "gunicorn>=21.2.0",
]

[project.optional-dependencies]
dev = [
    "django-debug-toolbar>=4.3.0",
    "pytest-django>=4.8.0",
    "ruff>=0.2.0",
]

5. Generate Python Library Structure

library-name/
├── pyproject.toml
├── README.md
├── LICENSE
├── src/
│   └── library_name/
│       ├── __init__.py
│       ├── py.typed
│       └── core.py
└── tests/
    ├── __init__.py
    └── test_core.py

pyproject.toml for Library:

[build-system]
requires = ["hatchling"]
build-backend = "hatchling.build"

[project]
name = "library-name"
version = "0.1.0"
description = "Library description"
readme = "README.md"
requires-python = ">=3.11"
license = {text = "MIT"}
authors = [
    {name = "Your Name", email = "[email protected]"}
]
classifiers = [
    "Programming Language :: Python :: 3",
    "License :: OSI Approved :: MIT License",
]
dependencies = []

[project.optional-dependencies]
dev = ["pytest>=8.0.0", "ruff>=0.2.0", "mypy>=1.8.0"]

[tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel]
packages = ["src/library_name"]

6. Generate CLI Tool Structure

# pyproject.toml
[project.scripts]
cli-name = "project_name.cli:main"

[project]
dependencies = [
    "typer>=0.9.0",
    "rich>=13.7.0",
]

src/project_name/cli.py:

import typer
from rich.console import Console

app = typer.Typer()
console = Console()

@app.command()
def hello(name: str = typer.Option(..., "--name", "-n", help="Your name")):
    """Greet someone"""
    console.print(f"[bold green]Hello {name}![/bold green]")

def main():
    app()

7. Configure Development Tools

.env.example:

# Application
PROJECT_NAME="Project Name"
VERSION="0.1.0"
DEBUG=True

# API
API_V1_PREFIX="/api/v1"
ALLOWED_ORIGINS=["http://localhost:3000"]

# Database
DATABASE_URL="postgresql://user:pass@localhost:5432/dbname"

# Security
SECRET_KEY="your-secret-key-here"

Makefile:

.PHONY: install dev test lint format clean
