Django Rest Cookiecutter template for Rest Framework/DRF

a django cookiecutter rest framework /drf cookiecutter template for bootstrapping headless Django with minimal efforts and ensuring the best practices followed in at the very beginning,

Sanity Check

Features

This template does not force you to integrate boto3,postgres,docker or any other dependancy / practices, but rather focuses on the important and crucial things,at the same time giving you options to branch out in directions with the boilerplate,it let's you deicde your pizza toppings as you develop further, while agconti/cookiecutter-django-rest changes things drastically in terms of settings,packages and project structure that i feel a need to start over.

  • For Django 3.2.10
  • Works with Python 3.9/3.8/3.7
  • 12-Factor compliance
  • Optimized development and production settings
  • Comes with custom user model ready to go
  • Docker support using Dockerfile for development and production
  • Procfile for deploying to Heroku
  • PostgreSQL support
  • Default integration with pre-commit for identifying simple issues before submission to code review

Usage

Let's pretend you want to create a Django project called "petstore". Rather than using startproject and then editing the results to include your name, email, and various configuration issues that always get forgotten until the worst possible moment, get cookiecutter to do all the work.

First, get Cookiecutter:

$ pip install "cookiecutter>=1.7.0"

Now run it against this repo:

$ cookiecutter https://github.com/vi6hal/django-cookiecutter-rest/

You'll be prompted for some values. Provide them, then a Django project will be created for you.
