isotoma.recipe.zope2install 0.0

Options

To specify which Zope 2 to use, use one of the following options:

url

The URL to a tarball to use for the Zope 2 installation.

svn

The URL for an subversion checkout to use for the Zope 2 installation.

location

The path to a local, existing Zope 2 installation. Note: For this to work Zope must have been built with the same Python used to run buildout.

fake-zope-eggs

If set to true, add fake egg links to Zope 3 libraries, so that setuptools can see and use them for dependencies lookup. Enabled by default since version 3.0 of this recipe.

additional-fake-eggs

Specify an optional list of additional fake eggs. Only include packages which are available on the Python path.

You can also specify an explicit version to fake for an egg. For example:

additional-fake-eggs =
    ZODB3 = 3.7.1
    zope.annotation = 3.3.2

Otherwise the faked eggs will always have version 0.0.

The default value includes Acquisition, ClientForm, DateTime, docutils, ExtensionClass, mechanize, Persistence, pytz, RestrictedPython, tempstorage, ZConfig, zLOG, zodbcode, ZODB3, zdaemon and Zope2.

skip-fake-eggs

Specify an optional list of packages, for whom no fake egg is created. This allows to pull in new versions of some of the Zope packages via normal version requirements.

smart-recompile

Will not recompile Zope if it finds .so or .pyd files. This means you can move your buildout around and speed up builds.

python

Specify a section that configures another executable than the one used by bin/buildout. For example:

[zope2]
recipe = isotoma.recipe.zope2install
...
python = python2.4

[python2.4]
executable = ${buildout:directory}/parts/python/bin/python

If you use many buildouts with the same Zope 2 version, then you can add “zope-directory” in the “buildout” section in your ~/.buildout/default.cfg file like this:

[buildout]
zope-directory = /home/me/buildout/zope

For installations from a tarball that directory will be used instead of the parts directory in your buildout. Each version of Zope will get it’s own directory but if it’s already installed the existing one will be reused.

Exported variables

The following variables are set by this recipe and can be used in other parts.

location

The path to the Zope installation root.
