General Usage

Overview

This buildout recipe provides a easy way to manage multiple packages with different types.

Options

source-root:

The root directory where we find out the packages’ source files.

packages:

A list of packages’ name followed with verion number.

dist-format:

Available formats: zip, tar, gztar, bztar. Default format is zip.

output-root:

The output root dir, where the archived file saved. Default is parts directory.

Sample for distribute exact packages

Samples here are based on zc.buildout’s testing support. Check testing support for more details.

Preparing Dirs and Files

Some preparation.:

>>> import os
>>> srcRoot = tmpdir('src-root')
>>> print(srcRoot)
/.../src-root
>>> distRoot = tmpdir('dist-root')
>>> print(distRoot)
/.../dist-root

preparting the test pakcages: create some folders, write some testing files too.:

>>> packageOne = os.path.join(srcRoot, 'test-package-one')
>>> mkdir(packageOne)
>>> mkdir(os.path.join(packageOne, 'folderone'))
>>> mkdir(os.path.join(packageOne, 'foldertwo'))
>>> mkdir(os.path.join(packageOne, 'foldertwo', 'foldertwo2'))
>>> write(packageOne, 'README.txt', "Readme content")
>>> write(packageOne, 'folderone', 'fileone.txt', 'File one content')
>>> write(packageOne, 'foldertwo', 'filetwo.txt', 'file two content')
>>> write(packageOne, 'foldertwo', 'foldertwo2', 'filetwo2.txt', 'file two 2 content')
>>> packagetwo = os.path.join(srcRoot, 'test-package-two')
>>> mkdir(packagetwo)
>>> mkdir(os.path.join(packagetwo, 'folder2one'))
>>> mkdir(os.path.join(packagetwo, 'folder2two'))
>>> mkdir(os.path.join(packagetwo, 'folder2two', 'folder2two2'))
>>> write(packagetwo, 'README.txt', "Readme content")
>>> write(packagetwo, 'folder2one', 'fileone.txt', 'File one content')
>>> write(packagetwo, 'folder2two', 'folder2two2', 'filetwo2.txt', 'file two 2 content')

Create the buildout.cfg

The sample buildout config file. The sample_buildout is the temp folder for testing.:

>>> write(sample_buildout, 'buildout.cfg',
... """
... [buildout]
... parts =
...     test-source-dist
...
... [test-source-dist]
... recipe = leocornus.recipe.distribute
... source-root = %(srcRoot)s
... packages =
...     test-package-one=1.0
...     test-package-two=2.0
... dist-format = zip
... output-root = %(distRoot)s
... """ % dict(srcRoot=srcRoot, distRoot=distRoot))
>>> ls(sample_buildout)
d  bin
-  buildout.cfg
d  develop-eggs
d  eggs
d  parts

Execute and Verify

run the buildout:

>>> os.chdir(sample_buildout)
>>> print(system(buildout))
Installing test-source-dist.
test-source-dist: Found 2 packages in total!
test-source-dist: Processing 1 of 2 packages - test-package-one
test-source-dist: Creating package: .../dist-root/test-package-one.1.0.zip
test-source-dist: Wiki Update: skip - Wiki update is OFF
test-source-dist: Processing 2 of 2 packages - test-package-two
test-source-dist: Creating package: .../dist-root/test-package-two.2.0.zip
test-source-dist: Wiki Update: skip - Wiki update is OFF
test-source-dist: Creating versions list file: .../dist-root/versions.txt...

Read the dist file to verify the result.:

>>> import zipfile
>>> thezip = zipfile.ZipFile(os.path.join(distRoot, 'test-package-one.1.0.zip'), "r")
>>> files = thezip.namelist()
>>> print(files)
['test-package-one/...']
>>> len(files)
4
>>> 'test-package-one/README.txt' in files
True
>>> 'test-package-one/folderone/fileone.txt' in files
True
>>> 'test-package-one/foldertwo/filetwo.txt' in files
True
>>> 'test-package-one/foldertwo/foldertwo2/filetwo2.txt' in files
True

verify package two:

>>> thezip = zipfile.ZipFile(os.path.join(distRoot, 'test-package-two.2.0.zip'), "r")
>>> files = thezip.namelist()
>>> len(files)
3
>>> 'test-package-two/README.txt' in files
True
>>> 'test-package-two/folder2one/fileone.txt' in files
True
>>> 'test-package-two/folder2two/folder2two2/filetwo2.txt' in files
True

verify the versions list file:

>>> versions = open(os.path.join(distRoot, 'versions.txt'), 'r')
>>> for line in versions:
...     print(line)
test-package-one=1.0
test-package-two=2.0

Sample to distribute whole folder

We will distirbue the whole WordPress plugins or themes folder. Here a list of things we are going to do:

  • preparing some testing folders and files to simulate WordPress Plugins and Themes

  • create buildout.cfg with the distribute recipe to archive all plugins and themes

  • verify the generated zip files have the correct content.

Prepare Plugins and Themes

We will use the same testing folders and files from previous example.

Make a WordPres Plugin package, could be any PHP file:

>>> pluginData = """
... /**
...  * Plugin Name: Package One
...  * Plugin URI: http://www.pluginone.com
...  * Description: this the a dummy testing plugin.
...  * Version: 2.3.4
...  */
... ** Some other content.
... Testing the case for duplicate header patterns.
... Version: 4.5
... """
>>> write(packageOne, 'pone.php', pluginData)

Make a WordPress Theme package, has to be the exact file name style.css:

>>> themeData = """
... /**
...  * Theme Name: Package Two Theme.
...  * Theme URI: http://www.themeone.com
...  * Description: this is a dummy theme for testing.
...  * Version: 3.4.5
...  * other header content.
...  */
... ** other style contnet.
... Another duplicate header pattern.
... Theme Name: fake one.
... """
>>> write(packagetwo, 'style.css', themeData)

Create the buildout file

The buildout will be very simple:

>>> write(sample_buildout, 'buildout.cfg',
... """
... [buildout]
... parts =
...     test-source-dist
...
... [test-source-dist]
... recipe = leocornus.recipe.distribute
... source-root = %(srcRoot)s
... packages = ALL
... dist-format = zip
... output-root = %(distRoot)s
... """ % dict(srcRoot=srcRoot, distRoot=distRoot))
>>> ls(sample_buildout)
-  .installed.cfg
d  bin
-  buildout.cfg
d  develop-eggs
d  eggs
d  parts

Execute and Verify

Execute the buildout:

>>> os.chdir(sample_buildout)
>>> print(system(buildout))
Uninstalling test-source-dist.
Installing test-source-dist.
test-source-dist: Found 2 packages in total!
test-source-dist: Processing 1 of 2 packages - test-package-one
test-source-dist: Creating package: .../test-package-one.2.3.4.zip
test-source-dist: Wiki Update: skip - Wiki update is OFF
test-source-dist: Processing 2 of 2 packages - test-package-two
test-source-dist: Creating package: .../test-package-two.3.4.5.zip
test-source-dist: Wiki Update: skip - Wiki update is OFF
...

Read the zip file and verify the content. We will expect the following files are created:

>>> pOne = os.path.join(distRoot, 'test-package-one.2.3.4.zip')
>>> os.path.exists(pOne)
True
>>> tTwo = os.path.join(distRoot, 'test-package-two.3.4.5.zip')
>>> os.path.exists(tTwo)
True
