zc.sbo 0.6.1

System Buildouts

System Buildouts

The system buildout script (sbo) provided by the zc.sbo package is used to perform “system” buildouts that write to system directories on unix-like systems. They are run using sudo or as root so they can write to system directiories. You can install the sbo command into a Python environment using its setup script or a tool like easy_install.

One installed, the sbo command is typically run with 2 arguments:

• The name of an application

• The name of a configuration

It expects the application to be a build-based application in /opt/APPLICATION-NAME. It expects to find a buildout configuration in /etc/APPLICATION-NAME/CONFIG-NAME.cfg

For example, if invoked with:

sbo myapp abccorp

It will run:

/opt/myapp/bin/buildout buildout:directory=/opt/myapp \
   -oUc /etc/myapp/sbccorp.cfg

Run with the -h option to get additional help.
