A command-line utility that creates projects from **cookiecutters** (project
templates), e.g. creating a Python package project from a Python package project
template.

We are proud to be an open source sponsor of
[PyCon 2016](https://us.pycon.org/2016/sponsors/).

## Features

- Cross-platform: Windows, Mac, and Linux are officially supported.
- You don't have to know/write Python code to use Cookiecutter.
- Works with Python 3.7, 3.8, 3.9.
- Project templates can be in any programming language or markup format:
  Python, JavaScript, Ruby, CoffeeScript, RST, Markdown, CSS, HTML, you name it.
  You can use multiple languages in the same project template.
- Simple command line usage:

```bash
# Create project from the cookiecutter-pypackage.git repo template
# You'll be prompted to enter values.
# Then it'll create your Python package in the current working directory,
# based on those values.
$ cookiecutter https://github.com/audreyfeldroy/cookiecutter-pypackage
# For the sake of brevity, repos on GitHub can just use the 'gh' prefix
$ cookiecutter gh:audreyfeldroy/cookiecutter-pypackage
```

- Use it at the command line with a local template:

```bash
# Create project in the current working directory, from the local
# cookiecutter-pypackage/ template
$ cookiecutter cookiecutter-pypackage/
```

- Or use it from Python:

```py
from cookiecutter.main import cookiecutter

# Create project from the cookiecutter-pypackage/ template
cookiecutter('cookiecutter-pypackage/')

# Create project from the cookiecutter-pypackage.git repo template
cookiecutter('https://github.com/audreyfeldroy/cookiecutter-pypackage.git')
```

- Directory names and filenames can be templated. For example:

```py
{{cookiecutter.repo_name}}/{{cookiecutter.repo_name}}/{{cookiecutter.repo_name}}.py
```

- Supports unlimited levels of directory nesting.
- 100% of templating is done with Jinja2. This includes file and directory names.
- Simply define your template variables in a `cookiecutter.json` file. For example:

```json
{
  "full_name": "Audrey Roy Greenfeld",
  "email": "audreyr@gmail.com",
  "project_name": "Complexity",
  "repo_name": "complexity",
  "project_short_description": "Refreshingly simple static site generator.",
  "release_date": "2013-07-10",
  "year": "2013",
  "version": "0.1.1"
}
```

- Unless you suppress it with `--no-input`, you are prompted for input:
  - Prompts are the keys in `cookiecutter.json`.
  - Default responses are the values in `cookiecutter.json`.
  - Prompts are shown in order.
- Cross-platform support for `~/.cookiecutterrc` files:

```yaml
default_context:
  full_name: "Audrey Roy Greenfeld"
  email: "audreyr@gmail.com"
  github_username: "audreyfeldroy"
cookiecutters_dir: "~/.cookiecutters/"
```

- Cookiecutters (cloned Cookiecutter project templates) are put into
  `~/.cookiecutters/` by default, or cookiecutters_dir if specified.
- If you have already cloned a cookiecutter into `~/.cookiecutters/`,
  you can reference it by directory name:

```bash
# Clone cookiecutter-pypackage
$ cookiecutter gh:audreyfeldroy/cookiecutter-pypackage
# Now you can use the already cloned cookiecutter by name
$ cookiecutter cookiecutter-pypackage
```

- You can use local cookiecutters, or remote cookiecutters directly from Git
  repos or from Mercurial repos on Bitbucket.
- Default context: specify key/value pairs that you want used as defaults
  whenever you generate a project.
- Inject extra context with command-line arguments:

```bash
cookiecutter --no-input gh:msabramo/cookiecutter-supervisor program_name=foobar startsecs=10
```

- Direct access to the Cookiecutter API allows for injection of extra context.
- Pre- and post-generate hooks: Python or shell scripts to run before or after
  generating a project.
- Paths to local projects can be specified as absolute or relative.
- Projects generated to your current directory or to target directory if
  specified with `-o` option.

## Available Cookiecutters

Making great cookies takes a lot of cookiecutters and contributors. We're so
pleased that there are many Cookiecutter project templates to choose from. We
hope you find a cookiecutter that is just right for your needs.

## A Pantry Full of Cookiecutters

The best place to start searching for specific and ready to use cookiecutter
template is [Github search](https://github.com/search?q=cookiecutter&type=Repositories).
Just type `cookiecutter` and you will discover over 4000 related repositories.

We also recommend you to check related GitHub topics. For general search use
[cookiecutter-template](https://github.com/topics/cookiecutter-template).
For specific topics try to use `cookiecutter-yourtopic`, like
`cookiecutter-python` or `cookiecutter-datascience`. This is a new GitHub feature,
so not all active repositories use it at the moment.

If you are template developer please add related
[topics](https://help.github.com/en/github/administering-a-repository/classifying-your-repository-with-topics)
with `cookiecutter` prefix to you repository. We believe it will make it more
discoverable. You are almost not limited in topics amount, use it!

## Cookiecutter Specials

These Cookiecutters are maintained by the cookiecutter team:

- [cookiecutter-pypackage](https://github.com/audreyfeldroy/cookiecutter-pypackage):
  [@audreyfeldroy's](https://github.com/audreyfeldroy) ultimate Python package project template.
- [cookiecutter-django](https://github.com/pydanny/cookiecutter-django):

  plugins that help you to write better programs.

## Community

The core committer team can be found in [authors section](AUTHORS.md).
We are always welcome and invite you to participate.

Stuck? Try one of the following:

- See the [Troubleshooting](https://cookiecutter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/troubleshooting.html) page.
- Ask for help on [Stack Overflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/cookiecutter).
- You are strongly encouraged to
  [file an issue](https://github.com/cookiecutter/cookiecutter/issues?q=is%3Aopen)
  about the problem, even if it's just "I can't get it to work on this cookiecutter"
  with a link to your cookiecutter. Don't worry about naming/pinpointing the issue
  properly.
- Ask for help on [Discord](https://discord.gg/9BrxzPKuEW)
  if you must (but please try one of the other options first, so that others
  can benefit from the discussion).

Development on Cookiecutter is community-driven:

- Huge thanks to all the [contributors](AUTHORS.md) who have pitched in to help
  make Cookiecutter an even better tool.
- Everyone is invited to contribute. Read the
  [contributing instructions](CONTRIBUTING.md), then get started.
- Connect with other Cookiecutter contributors and users on
  [Discord](https://discord.gg/9BrxzPKuEW)
  (note: due to work and other commitments, a core committer might not always be available)

Encouragement is unbelievably motivating. If you want more work done on
Cookiecutter, show support:

- Thank a core committer for their efforts.
- Star [Cookiecutter on GitHub](https://github.com/cookiecutter/cookiecutter).
- [Support this project](#support-this-project)

Got criticism or complaints?

- [File an issue](https://github.com/cookiecutter/cookiecutter/issues?q=is%3Aopen)
  so that Cookiecutter can be improved. Be friendly and constructive about what
  could be better. Make detailed suggestions.
- **Keep us in the loop so that we can help.** For example, if you are
  discussing problems with Cookiecutter on a mailing list,
  [file an issue](https://github.com/cookiecutter/cookiecutter/issues?q=is%3Aopen)
  where you link to the discussion thread and/or cc at least 1 core committer on the email.
- Be encouraging. A comment like "This function ought to be rewritten like this"
  is much more likely to result in action than a comment like "Eww, look how bad
  this function is."

Waiting for a response to an issue/question?

- Be patient and persistent. All issues are on the core committer team's radar
  and will be considered thoughtfully, but we have a lot of issues to work through.
  If urgent, it's fine to ping a core committer in the issue with a reminder.
- Ask others to comment, discuss, review, etc.
- Search the Cookiecutter repo for issues related to yours.
- Need a fix/feature/release/help urgently, and can't wait?
  [@audreyfeldroy](https://github.com/audreyfeldroy) is available for hire for consultation
  or custom development.

## Support This Project

organizations and individuals to support the project.

## Code of Conduct

Everyone interacting in the Cookiecutter project's codebases, issue trackers,
chat rooms, and mailing lists is expected to follow the
[PyPA Code of Conduct](https://www.pypa.io/en/latest/code-of-conduct/).
