Compile your python project into the most compact version it can be. This package internally uses the great Python Minifier package.
pip install python-project-minify
Note the pip refers to the Python 3 package manager. In environment where Python 2 is also available the correct command may be pip3.
Run the minify-project command in the terminal. It takes two arguments src and dst.
minify-project path/to/src path/to/dst
Import python_project_minify:
import python_project_minify
It's simple, just provide a source and destination path:
python_project_minify.directory('path/to/src', 'path/to/dst')
If you are providing paths with backslashes instead of forwardslashes like the example above, make sure to pass it with the r prefix. This way it will be treated as a raw string and won't throw an error.
python_project_minify.directory(r'path\to\src', r'path\to\dst')
Create a file called .ppmignore in the root of your project.
## Ignore file in root
file.txt
## Ignore specific file
folder/subfolder/file.txt
## Wildcard ignore file
*file.txt
## Ignore folder in root
/folder
## Ignore specific folder
/folder/subfolder
## Wildcard ignore folder
*/folder
## If for some reason it's necessary to keep the .ppmignore file in the destination folder
