# JamInit
JamInit is a command-line tool for creating standardized project structures for game jams.  
It aims to reduce setup time and promote consistency across multiple game jam projects.  

## Features
- Initializes new game jam projects with predefined folder structures.
- Supports multiple engines (Pygame, Godot, Unity).
- Generates template files including README, LICENSE, and .gitignore.
- Optionally initializes a Git repository.
- Configurable templates for custom workflows.


## Installation
JamInit requires Python 3.12 or higher.

```bash
pip install jaminit
```

## Usage
Create a new game jam project:

```bash
jaminit new "Mini Jam 183" --engine pygame --license MIT --git
```

Example output:

```yaml
mini_jam_183_dreams/
├── src/
│   ├── main.py
│	├── settings.py
│   └── player.py
├── assets/
│   ├── sprites/
│   ├── sounds/
│   ├── music/
│   └── fonts/
├── README.md
├── LICENSE
├── .gitignore
└── requirements.txt
```

Command help:

```bash
jaminit --help
```

## Roadmap

| Version | Milestone | Description |
|:--------:|:-----------|:-------------|
| **v0.1.0** | Core functionality | Implement base CLI using `argparse`. Add support for initializing Pygame projects with predefined folder structure and template files. Include auto-generated README, LICENSE, and `.gitignore`. |
| **v0.2.0** | Multi-engine support | Add `rich` integration. Add templates for Godot and Unity projects. Introduce a shared configuration file defining default directory layout and file templates per engine. |
| **v0.3.0** | Git and license automation | Add optional `--git` flag to automatically run `git init` and create a `.gitignore`. Include `--license` option for MIT, GPL, CC-BY, and Unlicense. |
| **v0.4.0** | Template customization | Allow users to define and store custom templates under `~/.jaminit/templates/`. Add `jaminit template create` and `jaminit template list` commands. |
| **v0.5.0** | Metadata and config files | Introduce a `.jaminit.json` configuration file per project to store metadata (jam name, engine, theme, version). Add command to regenerate project README from metadata. |
| **v0.6.0** | Project regeneration | Add `jaminit refresh` to reapply template updates to an existing project without overwriting code. |
| **v0.7.0** | Cross-platform polish | Add full Windows/macOS/Linux support testing, path normalization, and graceful error handling for filesystem issues. |
| **v0.8.0** | Interactive mode | Add optional interactive wizard (`jaminit new` without args) that prompts the user for engine, theme, and license step-by-step. |
| **v1.0.0** | Stable release | Comprehensive documentation, unit tests, and CI integration (GitHub Actions). Command autocompletion for Bash, Zsh, and PowerShell. |
