Simplify Copier setup and auto-fill API key from shell#8
Merged
Conversation
Remove vespa port and mistral_api_key questions from copier.yml. Use default ports in .env, load .env in Makefile, and scope reset-vespa to the project compose volume. Tag v1.0.1 so local copier copy uses this template instead of v1.0.0. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Run populate_api_key.py after copy when MISTRAL_API_KEY is exported. Add scripts/setup wrapper. Keep API key and ports out of prompts. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Remove the project_name prompt. Use _copier_conf.dst_path.name in templates so pyproject, README, and Vespa names match the output folder. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
