ZC Buildout recipe for installing a ZEO server
Project description
plone.recipe.zeoserver
This recipe creates and configures a ZEO server in parts. It also installs a control script, which is like zeoctl, in the bin/ directory. The name of the control script is the the name of the part in buildout.
You can use it with a part like this:
[zeoserver] recipe = plone.recipe.zeoserver zeo-address = 8100
Options
- zeopack
The path to the zeopack.py backup script. A wrapper for this will be generated in bin/zeopack, which sets up the appropriate environment to run this. Defaults to using the zeopack script from the ZODB3 egg. Set this option to an empty value if you do not want this script to be generated.
- repozo
The path to the repozo.py backup script. A wrapper for this will be generated in bin/repozo, which sets up the appropriate environment for running this. Defaults to using the repozo script from the ZODB3 egg. Set this to an empty value if you do not want this script to be generated.
- zeo-conf
A relative or absolute path to a zeo.conf file. If this is not given, a zeo.conf will be generated based on the the options below.
The following options all affect the generated zope.conf.
- zeo-address
Give a port for the ZEO server (either specify the port number only (with ‘localhost’ as default) or you use the format host:port). Defaults to 8100.
- effective-user
The name of the effective user for the ZEO process. Defaults to not setting an effective user.
- invalidation-queue-size
The invalidation-queue-size used for the ZEO server. Defaults to 100.
- zeo-log
The filename of the ZEO log file. Defaults to var/log/${partname}.log
- zeo-log-format
Format of logfile entries. Defaults to %(asctime)s %(message)s
- zeo-log-custom
A custom section for the eventlog, to be able to use another event logger than logfile. zeo-log is still used to set the logfile value in the runner section.
- storage-number
The number used to identify a storage.
- file-storage
The filename where the ZODB data file will be stored. Defaults to var/filestorage/Data.fs.
- blob-storage
The folder where the ZODB blob data files will be stored.
- socket-name
The filename where ZEO will write its socket file. Defaults to var/zeo.zdsock.
- authentication-database
The filename for a authentication database. Only accounts listed in this database will be allowed to access the ZEO server.
The format of the database file is:
realm <realm> <username>:<hash>
Where the hash is generated via:
import sha string = "%s:%s:%s" % (username, realm, password) sha.new(string).hexdigest()
- authentication-realm
The authentication realm. Defaults to ‘ZEO’
- pack-days
Specify of days for the zeopack script to retain of history. Defaults to one day.
- pack-user
If the ZEO server uses authentication, this is the username used by the zeopack script to connect to the ZEO server.
- pack-password
If the ZEO server uses authentication, this is the password used by the zeopack script to connect to the ZEO server.
- zeo-conf-additional
Give additional lines to zeo.conf. Make sure you indent any lines after the one with the parameter.
- monitor-address
The address at which the monitor server should listen. The monitor server provides server statistics in a simple text format.
- relative-paths
Set this to true to make the generated scripts use relative paths. You can also enable this in the [buildout] section.
- eggs
Set if you need to include other packages as eggs e.g. for making application code available on the ZEO server side for performing conflict resolution (through the _p_resolveConflict() handler).

Change History
1.0 - 2010-04-05
Depend on and always include ZopeUndo. While it’s only needed for Zope 2, the distribution is so tiny, it doesn’t hurt for non-Zope 2 ZEO servers. [hannosch]
1.0b1 - 2010-03-19
Fixed issue with egg paths for the zeopack script. [davisagli]
Added support for setting ZEO log level. [baijum]
1.0a2 - 2009-12-03
Set up logging configuration that is needed by ZODB.blob. [davisagli]
Set shared_blob_dir to True when initializing the ClientStorage used by the pack script, since it will be using the same blob directory as the ZEO server. [davisagli]
1.0a1 - 2009-12-03
Updated and cleaned up after renaming. [hannosch]
Added compatibility with eggified Zopes (Zope >= 2.12). [davisagli]
Initial implementation based on plone.recipe.zope2zeoserver. [plone]
