Skeleton for Nelen & Schuurmans projects
Project description
Paster skeletons for Nelen & Schuurmans
nensskel provides so-called “paster templates” for easy creation of new lizard websites, libraries and so on.
The nensskel script creates a directory structure with lots of basic files (like a readme and a setup.py) already there and partially filled in. Optionally it also creates a trunk/tags/branches structure in svn for you.
Just call the nensskel script to get usage information.
Installation can be done as a development installation or by a simple:
$> easy_install -i http://lizardpackages.vanrees.org nensskel
Development installation
Do the regular python bootstrap.py && bin/buildout and you’re set up. The nensskel and paster script are created in the bin/ directory.
There’s one python script in nensskel/*.py per template. The actual templates are in nensskel/templates/*. See http://pythonpaste.org/script/developer.html for some limited documentation on what paster can do. If you want examples: http://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/ZopeSkel/trunk/ is the most elaborate set of templates available.
Run the tests with bin/test and don’t forget to look at the buildbot after you made changes as it is particularly easy to make only-works-locally mistakes when working on paster templates.
Changelog for nensskel
1.1 (2010-08-10)
Changed test setup of djangoapp and lizardsite to match Reinout’s latest experiments :-)
1.0 (2010-08-03)
Added coverage support both to nensskel itself and to the templates.
0.5 (2010-08-02)
Added django compressor settings to the lizardsite template.
Added lizard-ui as a standard dependency for django applications.
0.4 (2010-05-20)
Removed ipython as it regularly fails to download, sadly. Can be re-added after buildout gains a timeout setting (in the .cfg files).
0.3 (2010-03-22)
Django STATIC_URL/MEDIA_URL clarification and usage improvement after discussion on http://bitbucket.org/jezdez/django-staticfiles/issue/12/
Added apache config (with a separate one for windows that still needs some work).
0.2 (2010-02-12)
Django fixes after using skeleton in real life.
0.1 (2010-02-11)
Added nensskel script as a handy wrapper around paster create.
Added lizardsite skeleton (which needs checking and probably modifications).
Added djangoapp skeleton.
Added library skeleton.
Added test that creates instances of all skeletons and runs their bin/buildout. Smoke test: switch everything on and see if smoke comes out.
Reinout copied relevant parts from the thaskel and zestskel that he made for the two previous companies he worked for.
Todo
Lizardsite: add django fastcgi setup.
Lizardsite: add django apache config.
Lizardsite: add log and www dir.
Lizardsite: find better way for development tools (off in deployment).
Lizardsite: use mkdir recipe to add var/media dir
Lizardsite: add var/media dir hosting to apache config.
Lizardsite: figure out ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX. Probably use django-staticmedia’s STATIC_MEDIA/admin instead.
