Plugin template for Sopel 7 and higher. To use:
pip install cookiecutter
cookiecutter gh:sopel-irc/cookiecutter-sopelYou can then release the plugin on PyPI in the normal Python way.
Obviously, you can modify anything that the template builds, so don't feel constrained to this one way of doing things. Please do submit PRs to this repo if you think the template can be improved.
If you find yourself creating plugins fairly often, you'll likely get tired of
typing in your name, email address, and GitHub username every time.
Fortunately, cookiecutter itself provides a way to specify default values via a
.cookiecutterrc file in your home directory. For example, this snippet:
default_context:
full_name: "dgw"
email: "[email protected]"
github_username: "dgw"would override the default values for this template's full_name, email, and
github_username fields, meaning you could just press Enter to accept each of
these instead of retyping your info every time.

If you need to build a new plugin that will be compatible with Sopel 6, use the legacy template:
pip install cookiecutter
cookiecutter gh:sopel-irc/cookiecutter-sopel --checkout sopel_modules
