This project is merged with [skeleton](https://github.com/jaraco/skeleton). What is skeleton? It's the scaffolding of a Python project jaraco [introduced in his blog](https://blog.jaraco.com/a-project-skeleton-for-python-projects/). It seeks to provide a means to re-use techniques and inherit advances when managing projects for distribution.

## An SCM Managed Approach
## An SCM-Managed Approach

While maintaining dozens of projects in PyPI, jaraco derives best practices for project distribution and publishes them in the [skeleton repo](https://github.com/jaraco/skeleton), a git repo capturing the evolution and culmination of these best practices.
While maintaining dozens of projects in PyPI, jaraco derives best practices for project distribution and publishes them in the [skeleton repo](https://github.com/jaraco/skeleton), a Git repo capturing the evolution and culmination of these best practices.

It's intended to be used by a new or existing project to adopt these practices and honed and proven techniques. Adopters are encouraged to use the project directly and maintain a small deviation from the technique, make their own fork for more substantial changes unique to their environment or preferences, or simply adopt the skeleton once and abandon it thereafter.

## Updating

Whenever a change is needed or desired for the general technique for packaging, it can be made in the skeleton project and then merged into each of the derived projects as needed, recommended before each release. As a result, features and best practices for packaging are centrally maintained and readily trickle into a whole suite of packages. This technique lowers the amount of tedious work necessary to create or maintain a project, and coupled with other techniques like continuous integration and deployment, lowers the cost of creating and maintaining refined Python projects to just a few, familiar git operations.

This technique lowers the amount of tedious work necessary to create or maintain a project, and coupled with other techniques like continuous integration and deployment, lowers the cost of creating and maintaining refined Python projects to just a few, familiar Git operations.

Thereafter, the target project can make whatever customizations it deems relevant to the scaffolding. The project may even at some point decide that the divergence is too great to merit renewed merging with the original skeleton. This approach applies maximal guidance while creating minimal constraints.

# Features

The features/techniques employed by the skeleton include:

- PEP 517/518 based build relying on setuptools as the build tool
- setuptools declarative configuration using setup.cfg
- PEP 517/518-based build relying on Setuptools as the build tool
- Setuptools declarative configuration using setup.cfg
- tox for running tests
- A README.rst as reStructuredText with some popular badges, but with readthedocs and appveyor badges commented out
- A README.rst as reStructuredText with some popular badges, but with Read the Docs and AppVeyor badges commented out
- A CHANGES.rst file intended for publishing release notes about the project
- Use of [black](https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable/) for code formatting (disabled on unsupported Python 3.5 and earlier)

## Packaging Conventions

A pyproject.toml is included to enable PEP 517 and PEP 518 compatibility and declares the requirements necessary to build the project on setuptools (a minimum version compatible with setup.cfg declarative config).

Documentation is automatically built by [Read the Docs](https://readthedocs.org) when the project is registered with it, by way of the .readthedocs.yml file. To test the docs build manually, a tox env may be invoked as `tox -e docs`. Both techniques rely on the dependencies declared in `setup.cfg/options.extras_require.docs`.

In addition to building the sphinx docs scaffolded in `docs/`, the docs build a `history.html` file that first injects release dates and hyperlinks into the CHANGES.rst before incorporating it as history in the docs.
