init

Usage

prism init is used to initialize a new Prism project.

Usage: prism init [-h] [--project-name NAME] [--minimal] [-l]

Options:
  -h, --help           show this help message and exit

Command Options:
  --project-name NAME  Project name
  --minimal            Create minimal project (just `prism_project.py` and `modules`). Default is False

General Options:
  -l, --log-level      Log level, must be one of `info`, `warn`, `error`, or `debug`. Default is `info`

Good to know: you can enter the desired project name as an argument to the init command (e.g., prism init --project-name my_first_project). If you don't, no sweat! The console will prompt you to enter in a desired project name.

After the command finishes executing, you should see the folder for your Prism project!

Example

Here's what the output will look like in Terminal:

$ prism init --project_name my_first_project
