buildout.bootstrap
Buildout extension to download https://bootstrap.pypa.io/bootstrap-buildout.py automatically.
Introduction
Formerly collective.recipe.bootstrap
buildout.bootstrap is a Buildout extension that adds a Buildout bootstrap.py file to your buildout.
It satisfies the use case:
“I want to keep my buildout’s bootstrap.py file up to date without having to download it manually.”
It also makes it easy to add a bootstrap.py file to a buildout created via buildout init e.g.:
$ buildout init
After running this command, you have a buildout.cfg that looks like this:
[buildout] parts =
And you can now add the extension like so:
[buildout] extensions = buildout.bootstrap parts =
Run buildout again and afterward you should have a bootstrap.py file. Once you have a bootstrap.py file you can bootstrap the buildout via:
$ python bootstrap.py
If you still don’t understand, consider the following: with this extension you can avoid having to type:
$ curl -O https://bootstrap.pypa.io/bootstrap-buildout.py
You typically use this extension when you have created a new buildout and want to:
Check it in to version control
Check it out somewhere else and bootstrap it with python only (i.e. no setuptools available)
Installation
Add buildout.bootstrap to the extensions parameter in the buildout section of your buildout.cfg e.g.:
[buildout] extensions = buildout.bootstrap parts =
