Piano. Beginner friendly Plone development.

Installation

Prerequisites

You should have the build tools and Plone dependencies installed.

If you’re on Debian or Ubuntu with sudo privileges, We’ve simplified this for you. Just run one of the commands below:

For Debian:

wget -qO- for-beginner-piano.github.io/debian | bash

For Ubuntu:

wget -qO- for-beginner-piano.github.io/ubuntu | bash

Quick Install

To install piano quickly, run the following commands:

wget -qO- for-beginner-piano.github.io | bash
source ~/.bashrc

This will use pipsi to install the relevant packages in user space. It also ensures that piano is using the most up-to-date version of setuptools.

Longer Install

We prefer and recommend pipsi.

Once you have pipsi, run:

pipsi install for-beginner-piano
~/.local/venvs/for-beginner-piano/bin/pip install -U setuptools

Usage

To create a new Plone buildout project

Use the subcommand newbuildout to create a buildout project.

For example, if your project will be called my-plone-site:

piano newbuildout my-plone-site

You’ll see output similar to this:

Creating virtualenv... (my-plone-site)
Installing Buildout...
Downloading installer (https://launchpad.net/plone/4.3/4.3.3/+download/Plone-4.3.3-UnifiedInstaller.tgz)
Unpacking installer...
Unpacking cache...
Installing eggs...
Installing cmmi & dist...
Configuring cache...
Running Buildout...

Installing non default versions

For the latest Plone 5 site you could do the following:

wget for-beginner-piano.github.com/p5; source p5
piano newbuildout plone5-site

for the latest Plone 4 site:

wget for-beginner-piano.github.com/p4; source p4
piano newbuildout plone4-site

OR if you prefer the more manual approach, here’s an example of installing Plone 5 (note the use of the special PIANO environment variables:

export PIANO_EXTENDS=https://raw.github.com/plock/pins/master/plone-5-0
export PIANO_UNIFIEDINSTALLER_URL=https://launchpad.net/plone/5.0/5.0a2/+download/Plone-5.0a2-UnifiedInstaller.tgz
export PIANO_UNIFIEDINSTALLER_DIR=Plone-5.0a2-UnifiedInstaller

then run:

piano newbuildout myplone5

Creating a Plone add-on

This is not working yet, but:

piano newaddon myaddon

(coming soon, this command doesn’t work yet)
