plonecli 2.0a1

Bash Auto Completion

To enable auto completion plonecli provides the plonecli_autocomplete.sh script, put the following bash command into your bashrc:

If you installed plonecli in user global packages:

$ . ~/.local/bin/plonecli_autocomplete.sh

If you installed plonecli in a virtualenv it’s:

$ . /path/to/your/virtualenv/bin/plonecli_autocomplete.sh

If you used pipenv to install plonecli, you have to find out the path to the virtualenv before:

$ pipenv --virtualenv
/home/maik/.local/share/virtualenvs/pe-WnXOnVWH
. /home/maik/.local/share/virtualenvs/pe-WnXOnVWH/bin/plonecli_autocomplete.sh

Creating A Plone Add-on

$ plonecli -l
Available mr.bob templates:
- addon
 - behavior
 - content_type
 - portlet
 - theme
 - theme_barceloneta
 - view
 - viewlet
 - vocabulary
- buildout
- theme_package [deprecated] >> Please use the theme_barceloneta subtemplate!

$ plonecli create addon src/collective.todo

Adding Features To Your Plone Add-on

You can add different features through subtemplates. You can use them also multiple times to create different features of the same type, like two different content types.

$ cd collective.todo

$ plonecli add behavior
$ plonecli add content_type
$ plonecli add theme
$ plonecli add view
$ plonecli add viewlet
$ plonecli add vocabulary

Build Your Package

$ plonecli build

This will run:

$ virtualenv .
$ ./bin/pip install -r requirements.txt --upgrade
$ ./bin/buildout

in your target directory.

You can always run the 3 steps explicit by using virtualenv, requirements, buildout instead of build. If you want to reset your build use the --clean option on build. This will clear your virtualenv before installing the requirements and also running buildout with -n to get the newest versions.

Run Your Application

$ plonecli serve

Run Tests for Application

$ plonecli test

or run specific tests:

$ plonecli test -t test_the_thing

or run all tests including Robot tests:

$ plonecli test --all

Combining Commands

You can combine the steps above like this:

$ plonecli create addon src/collective.todo build test --all serve

Setup Developer Environment

$ git clone https://github.com/plone/plonecli/
$ cd plonecli
$ virtualenv .
$ source bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ python setup.py develop
$ plonecli --help

Running Tests

You can run the tests using the following command:

$ tox

or by installing py.test and run the test directly without tox:

$ py.test test/

or a single test:

$ py.test test/ -k test_get_package_root

Register Your Bobtemplates Package For Plonecli

All mr.bob templates can be registered for plonecli by adding an entry_point to your setup.py.

Here are the entry_points of the bobtemplates.plone package:

entry_points={
    'mrbob_templates': [
        'plone_addon = bobtemplates.plone.bobregistry:plone_addon',
        'plone_buildout = bobtemplates.plone.bobregistry:plone_buildout',  # NOQA E501
        'plone_theme_package = bobtemplates.plone.bobregistry:plone_theme_package',  # NOQA E501
        'plone_content_type = bobtemplates.plone.bobregistry:plone_content_type',  # NOQA E501
        'plone_view = bobtemplates.plone.bobregistry:plone_view',
        'plone_viewlet = bobtemplates.plone.bobregistry:plone_viewlet',
        'plone_portlet = bobtemplates.plone.bobregistry:plone_portlet',
        'plone_theme = bobtemplates.plone.bobregistry:plone_theme',
        'plone_theme_barceloneta = bobtemplates.plone.bobregistry:plone_theme_barceloneta',  # NOQA E501
        'plone_vocabulary = bobtemplates.plone.bobregistry:plone_vocabulary',  # NOQA E501
        'plone_behavior = bobtemplates.plone.bobregistry:plone_behavior',  # NOQA E501
        'plone_restapi_service = bobtemplates.plone.bobregistry:plone_restapi_service', # NOQA E501
    ],
},

The entry_point name is used as the global template name for mr.bob. You also need to provide a bobregistry.py file with a method for each entry_point, it should be named after the entry_point name:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

class RegEntry(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self.template = ''
        self.plonecli_alias = ''
        self.depend_on = None
        self.deprecated = False
        self.info = ''


# standalone template
def plone_addon():
    reg = RegEntry()
    reg.template = 'bobtemplates.plone:addon'
    reg.plonecli_alias = 'addon'
    return reg


# sub template
def plone_theme():
    reg = RegEntry()
    reg.template = 'bobtemplates.plone:theme'
    reg.plonecli_alias = 'theme'
    reg.depend_on = 'plone_addon'
    return reg

For every template you add a line to the entry_points and define a method in the bobregistry.py, which will return a registry object with some properties.

• template - contains the name of the actual mr.bob template.

• plonecli_alias - defines the name under which the template will be used inside plonecli

• depend_on:

  1. for a standalone template, the depend_on property is None

  2. for a sub template, the depend_on contains the name of the parent standalone template, usualy addon.

• deprecated - boolean saying whether this templates is deprecated and will be removed in future releases

• info - message that will be shown next to the template when the template is deprecated
