Create the skeleton of a Common Lisp project in directory. If given, name is used as the name of the project. Otherwise, the name is taken from the last component in the pathname-directory of the pathname. For example, the last directory component of #p"src/lisp/myproject/" is "myproject".

The project skeleton consists of the following files:

• README.txt
• package.lisp — defines a package named after the project
• name.asd — defines an ASDF system named after the project, with a :depends-on list as given in the function call
• name.lisp

If provided, author and license are used to initialize certain parts of the default files with extra information. The default values are taken from *AUTHOR* and *LICENSE*, respectively.

If provided, the boolean argument to include-copyright will determine whether copyright notices will be printed in the header of each file.

If provided, each file in template-directory is rewritten with HTML-TEMPLATE into the new directory. The options are as follows:

• The template markers are (#| and |#)
• No escaping is done in template values
• Template parameters are created by appending template-parameters with the lists returned by calling each entry in *TEMPLATE-PARAMETER-FUNCTIONS*

After rewriting templates, each element in *AFTER-MAKE-PROJECT-HOOKS* is called.

After the project has been created, its pathname is added to ASDF:*CENTRAL-REGISTRY*, so the project is immediately loadable via ASDF:LOAD-SYSTEM.

This string is used to initialize the :author argument in the project system definition. The default initial value is "Your Name <your.name@example.com>".

This variable is used to control whether a copyright notice (with the author's name and the current year) should appear in the header of each file..

This string is used to initialize the :description argument in the project system definition. The default initial value is "Specify license here".

If non-NIL, this variable should be bound to a pathname used as the default value of template-directory in MAKE-PROJECT.

Return a plist with values for :name, :license, and :author for the current project being created via MAKE-PROJECT. This function is in the default value of *TEMPLATE-PARAMETER-FUNCTIONS*.

A list of functions that are called to produce template parameters when rewriting templates in MAKE-PROJECT. Each function is called with no arguments and should produce a list of keyword/value pairs. The resulting lists are appended together for use as template parameters in HTML-TEMPLATE:FILL-AND-PRINT-TEMPLATE.

The default value is (default-template-parameters).

A list of designators for functions to be called after a project has been created. Each function should accept one required argument, the pathname given to MAKE-PROJECT, and two keyword arguments, :name and :depends-on, which correspond to the name of the project (whether explicitly supplied to MAKE-PROJECT or derived from the pathname) and the :depends-on argument, respectively. *default-pathname-defaults* is bound to the newly created project pathname when hooks are called.
