I am sorry I linked the master repository. See the structureCode branch[1].

This certainly helps, if you see the new link that I have given this time,
you will notice that I have an app.py in my project dir, and it has the
main() function. I have called the main function in __main__.py. This[2]
blog post tells me that you can run your app using ``python -m scorer``
from the root directory of the project, and indeed I am able to run my
scorer app like this.

Now my question is  how can I use setup tools so that users can just run
"scorer" from the command line and the my script(which was installed before
by setuptools) will start?
