Installation

To install quintagroup.pingtool into the global Python environment (or a workingenv), using a traditional Zope 2 instance, you can do this:

• Copy quintagroup folder to the /path/to/instance/lib/python directory of your Zope instance.

• Create a file called quintagroup.pingtool-configure.zcml in the /path/to/instance/etc/package-includes directory of your Zope instance. The file should only contain this:

  <include package="quintagroup.pingtool" />
  

• Restart the Zope server, for example with the following command in the terminal:

  $ ./bin/zopectl restart
  

Alternatively, if you are using zc.buildout and the plone.recipe.zope2instance recipe to manage your project, you can do this:

• Add quintagroup.pingtool to the list of eggs to install.:

  [buildout]
  ...
  eggs =
      ...
      quintagroup.pingtool
  

• Tell the plone.recipe.zope2instance recipe to install a ZCML slug:

  [instance]
  recipe = plone.recipe.zope2instance
  ...
  zcml =
      quintagroup.pingtool
  

• Re-run buildout, e.g. with:

  $ ./bin/buildout
  

• Restart the Zope server, e.g with the following command in the terminal:

  $ ./bin/instance restart
  

Install quintagroup.pingtool with quickinstaller in Plone.
