nensskel 1.1.1

Company-centricity

Nensskel originates at Nelen & Schuurmans, so we’ve of course set it up just the way we like it. And we change it the way we like it.

It does, however, give you a good example for full django applications/sites with a complete setup. For example, the django sites come with a full-blown apache config. And django-staticfiles is included for the easy css/js setup.

Example for your own skeleton

When you want to create your own skeleton, nensskel can be a nice, small example. Just download the .tar.gz and unpack it.

Do the regular python bootstrap.py && bin/buildout and you’re set up. The nensskel and paster script are created in the bin/ directory.

There’s one python script in nensskel/*.py per template. The actual templates are in nensskel/templates/*. See http://pythonpaste.org/script/developer.html for some limited documentation on what paster can do. If you want more elaborate examples: http://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/ZopeSkel/trunk/ is the most elaborate set of templates available.

1.1.1 (2010-08-10)

• Documentation update.

1.1 (2010-08-10)

1.0 (2010-08-03)

• Added coverage support both to nensskel itself and to the templates.

0.5 (2010-08-02)

• Added django compressor settings to the lizardsite template.

• Django STATIC_URL/MEDIA_URL clarification and usage improvement after discussion on http://bitbucket.org/jezdez/django-staticfiles/issue/12/

0.2 (2010-02-12)

• Django fixes after using skeleton in real life.

0.1 (2010-02-11)

• Added nensskel script as a handy wrapper around paster create.

• Added lizardsite skeleton (which needs checking and probably modifications).

• Added djangoapp skeleton.

• Added library skeleton.

• Added test that creates instances of all skeletons and runs their bin/buildout. Smoke test: switch everything on and see if smoke comes out.

• Reinout copied relevant parts from the thaskel and zestskel that he made for the two previous companies he worked for.
