# newproject
Composes a project from the templates in this organization: `infra` at the root, then `backend-python`, `frontend-svelte` and `caddy` on top, each with its own answers file in `.copier/`.
```sh
source ~/projects/templates/newproject/shell.sh
newproject ~/projects/my-thing
updateproject # every part
updateproject backend # one part
```
`newproject` asks for the parts, the backend language, the frontend framework and how the frontend is served, then hands over to each template's own questions. Every prompt has a flag for non-interactive use:
```sh
newproject ~/projects/my-thing --parts backend,frontend,caddy --backend python --frontend svelte --serve bun --defaults
```
One part alone is rendered at the root of the project; two parts live in `backend/` and `frontend/`. After rendering, `make env` creates `.env` and every `docker-compose.override.yml` from their examples. `updateproject` needs a clean working tree and commits each part's update separately, so the next part starts from a clean tree again; conflicts stay in those commits for you to resolve. Templates are cloned from `https://git.kotikot.com/templates` unless `TEMPLATES_DIR` points at a directory with local checkouts; `TEMPLATES_REF=HEAD` renders their working trees instead of the latest tag.
## Renovate
A new repo needs the `renovate`, `wait-3d` and `deps-code` labels before the bot
ever runs against it: Renovate fails on a label that does not exist, and until
today these were created by hand for every repo.
```sh
giteaproject ms-agents/my-thing
```
It creates the labels and, if the repo has no `renovate.jsonc` yet, commits one
that is nothing but an `extends` on the shared preset in `templates/renovate`.
Projects rendered by `newproject` already carry that file from the `infra`
template, so for them the command only does the labels.
**Extending the preset does not subscribe the repo to anything.** The bot walks
an explicit list, so the repo also has to be added to `repositories` in
`projects/personal/renovate/renovate-config.js` of `infra/komodo`, and the
`renovate` team of its organization needs write access to it. Miss that step and
the config sits there doing nothing, silently.
Requires `uv`; `bun`, `docker` and `pre-commit` are used by the generated projects.
