A template place for starting a new python project:

1. pyproject.toml to manage all tools, configurations and dependencies in one place.
2. poetry: python packaging and dependency management made easy.
   • to get started with poetry it is best to follow documentation from here.
   • or just install poetry and create a virtual env in project directory:

        curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/python-poetry/poetry/master/get-poetry.py | python -
        poetry config virtualenvs.create true \
        && poetry config virtualenvs.in-project true \
        && poetry install --no-interaction --no-ansi

   • to activate the virtual env with poetry just type: poetry shell
   • to deactivate the virtual env shell type exit or Ctrl-D
3. git's pre-commit hooks for code format and linting
4. default python .gitignore file.
5. editorconfig - instructs code editors for some files format conventions.
6. commitzen for git commits convention, Changelog, and Semantic versioning.

default is python3.8

There are some places that need to pay attention to, when using a different python version: I think the only place that matters is the poetry (No.1.ii below), but feel free to try.

1. pyproject.toml
   1. Black

          [tool.black]
          target-version = ['py3']

   2. Poetry

          [tool.poetry.dependencies]
          python = "^3.8"

2. .pre-commit-config.yaml
   1. flake8

           - id: flake8
             additional_dependencies:
           - flake8-black>=0.1.1
             language_version: python3
