target/make-python-devex

An example Python project using Make, Homebrew, pyenv, poetry, and other great tools

Example repo for Make Python Devex

This repository contains a simple Python® project setup
using the Make Python DevEx system described and built by Colin Dean.
Read more about why this exists at the Target Tech blog post
Make Python DevEx.

Tip

Quickstart: With Homebrew installed and brew available (which brew):

# if you use the gh CLI tool
gh repo clone target/make-python-devex
# or just git
git clone https://github.com/target/make-python-devex.git
# then set it up, run deps twice in separate invocations
make deps
make deps check test build

Run make help to see the tasks available.

In theory, run make deps until it succeeds, following any instructions output
in the meantime.
Then, run make check test build to build the distributable.
Run poetry run example-make-python-devex to see the app in action.

This system was built for and tested primarily on Apple® macOS® 11 and later.
It may work on Linux with adjustments; PRs welcome.
