Feed Description: Programming life without Python(?)
Here I will introduce two Zope 3 applications created solely from eggs using Buildout.
First application will display 'Hello' when you access http://localhost:8080/hello . You can checkout this from here: svn://svn.zope.org/repos/main/Sandbox/baijum/z3hello/trunk .
Here is the steps to run the application:
$ svn co svn://svn.zope.org/repos/main/Sandbox/baijum/z3hello/trunk z3hello $ cd z3hello $ python2.4 bootstrap.py $ ./bin/buildout -N $ ./bin/instance start
Running bootstrap.py will install setuptools and zc.buildout and it will create a directory for building your the application. You can run `bin/buildout` script created by bootstrap.py to build the application. Then you are ready to start server using `bin/instance` script created by buildout command.
You can try the ZWiki (Zope 3 version) similarly:
$ svn co svn://svn.zope.org/repos/main/zwiki/branches/baijum-experimental-zwiki zwiki $ cd zwiki $ python2.4 bootstrap.py $ ./bin/buildout -N $ ./bin/instance start
To see Wikis in action, go into the management interface and add a Wiki object named `mywiki`. Leave the two preselected options.
I know there are many "Why" questions. I suggest you to read about Setuptools and Buildout for the answers. And if you know the questions with answers, I welcome you to add it here as comments! :)
