Install Plone

Project description

This recipe allows you to install Plone, based on the packages used for the Plone installers.

Here is an example buildout:

[buildout]
parts = plone zope2 instance
eggs =
develop =

[plone]
recipe = plone.recipe.plone

[zope2]
recipe = plone.recipe.zope2install
url = ${plone:zope2-url}

[instance]
recipe = plone.recipe.zope2instance
zope2-location = ${zope2:location}
user = admin:admin
http-port = 8080
debug-mode = on
verbose-security = on
eggs =
    ${buildout:eggs}
    ${plone:eggs}
zcml =

products =
    ${plone:products}

Notice how the ‘plone’ recipe is able to supply a URL for a “known good” version of Zope (you can of course choose not to use it).

The ‘instance’ recipe is configured with two parameters set by the ‘plone’ recipe:

plone:eggs – The various Plone eggs

plone:products – A directory containing the Plone Zope 2 products

Other possible options in the ‘plone’ section include:

eggs – Override the eggs used by Plone

urls – A list of URLs to download packages from, overriding those from the

installer configuration. You can use the options ‘nested-packages’ and ‘version-suffix-packages’ to give the names of download archives which contain a parent directory and the actual product in a sub directory, and products which when extracted have a directory containing the version number. See plone.recipe.distros for more information.

zope2-url – Override the Zope 2 URL from the installer (not that there is

much point in doing so).
