Change log
2006-07-18 Reinout van Rees <reinout@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/instancemanager/utils.py: Added svn export support.
* setup.cfg: Released 0.3.
2006-07-18 Maurits van Rees <maurits@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/instancemanager/defaults.py: Fixed missing comma and wrong
order of actions in fresh and soft multiaction.
2006-07-17 Maurits van Rees <m.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/instancemanager/actions.py,
src/instancemanager/actionutils.py: Refactor use of
InvokedInVolatileDir Exception: move it to actionutils and also
use it in class CreateInstanceAction.
2006-07-17 Russ Ferriday <russf@topia.com>
* src/instancemanager/actions.py: renamed avoidUsageWithinProductsDir()
to trapUsageWithinVolatileDir and raise exception. More generic approach
can be used with similar tests in ZEO handing. Ref. email with Mauritz.
2006-07-17 Reinout van Rees <r.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/instancemanager/actions.py: Added forced full backup,
snapshot backup, snapshot restore and sync options to a new
--repozo action.
* src/instancemanager/actionutils.py: Refactored the backup and
restore actions in preparation for a more diverse repozo action.
* src/instancemanager/actions.py: Large-scale restructuring of the
way instancemanager handles options. I'm using python's optparse
module now. See "instancemanager -h" for a usage message.
Big change also: multi-actions. You can provide per-project
collections of actions grouped together under a single name. By
default, fresh and soft are provided.
2006-07-17 Russ Ferriday <russf@topia.com>
* src/instancemanager/actions.py: added avoidUsageWithinProductsDir()
to prevent occurrence of current dir being deleted and raising
unexplained IOError. Currently warns in the case the post execution
directory will be invalid.
* src/instancemanager/sources.py: trivial logging and comment change
2006-07-12 Maurits van Rees <m.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/instancemanager/actions.py (CreateInstanceAction.run): Fixed
old TODO: Also check for current working dir being *below* the
instance dir before creating a new instance.
2006-07-12 Reinout van Rees <reinout@vanrees.org>
* src/instancemanager/actions.py: Added support for a zeo
server+client setup. If you add a use_zeo=True option to your
config, instancemanager will create a zeo server and a zeo client
for you. Copying an existing database will copy it to the zeo
server's var/ directory, then. There's an extra startzeo/stopzeo
command, also.
2006-07-10 Maurits van Rees <m.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/instancemanager/quickreinstaller.py: Added FakeResponse as
this was needed by a product. That product still gives other
errors, but those should be unrelated.
2006-07-09 Maurits van Rees <m.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/instancemanager/quickreinstaller.py,
src/instancemanager/actions.py, src/instancemanager/defaults.py :
Added config option 'generic_setup_profiles' to apply site
customizations with GenericSetup. Please test.
2006-07-08 Maurits van Rees <m.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/instancemanager/sources.py: First check if target is symlink
before removing it. Previous implementation would remove the
contents of a symlink to a directory and then fail.
2006-07-06 Maurits van Rees <m.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/instancemanager/actions.py: check for existence of
bin/zopectl.
* src/instancemanager/mainprogram.py: add performActionOnProject
function to remove some code duplication.
2006-07-02 Maurits van Rees <m.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/instancemanager/defaults.py: Changed double archive_sources and
archive_basedir_template to their bundle variants.
2006-06-27 Russ Ferriday <russf@topia.com>
* replaced "tgz" with "archive" in config attribute names, while
maintaining compatibility with attribute names in existing config
files. Allowed non-gzipped archives, and refactored archive
expansion into one utility function.
2006-06-26 Reinout van Rees <reinout@isengrim.ddns.hightechcampus.nl>
* src/instancemanager/configuration.py: Patch by Russ Ferriday to
prevent copying of .pyc files to the .instancemanager config dir.
2006-06-22 Maurits van Rees <m.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/instancemanager/sources.py: warn before removing a product
when switching to another version (e.g. symlink instead of tgz).
Also use removeTargetIfExists() when adding a tgz or symlink
source.
* src/instancemanager/configuration.py: sort the sources so the
order of product installation is clear: bundles first, then
singles.
2006-06-21 Maurits van Rees <m.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* bash_completion, src/instancemanager/actions.py: Added fg action
to put the zope instance in the foreground. You first need to
stop it manually (e.g. with the stop action).
2006-06-21 Maurits van Rees <m.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/instancemanager/mainprogram.py: loglevels in lowercase are
allowed now.
2006-06-20 Maurits van Rees <m.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/mainprogram.py, src/sources.py: Added command line option to
set the log level for the log that is printed to standard out.
With help from Joris Slob.
2006-06-20 Maurits van Rees <m.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* bash_completion: pretty functional now.
2006-06-19 Reinout van Rees <reinout@isengrim.ddns.hightechcampus.nl>
* src/instancemanager/mainprogram.py: Added project alias ALL that
performs the action (like 'stop') for all projects.
2006-06-08 Maurits van Rees <m.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/quickreinstaller.py: Use request for making a new plone
site, which makes this work again. Also check if ATContentTypes
needs to be updated.
* src/sources.py: If a tgz source ends with 'zip' unzip it instead
of using tar.
2006-06-06 Reinout van Rees <r.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/mainprogram.py: Corrected error on first startup: the config
dir is now being created.
* setup.py: Large-scale moving: putting instancemanager as a
directory inside src/ instead of having the files directly in
src. Also switched to using setuptools.
* setup.py: instancemanager is now easy-installable using
"easy_install instancemanager"!
2006-06-04 Jean-Paul Ladage <j.ladage@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/actions.py: Added restore action, which restores the last
available backup from the backup repository directory. This action
will also remove the temporary files: Data.fs.tmp, Data.fs.index
and Data.fs.lock.
* Refactored backup and restore action. For each project a
subdirectory is created inside the BackupsBaseDir.
2006-06-02 Jean-Paul Ladage <j.ladage@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/actions.py: Refactored the backup action, it now checks if
the target folder exists and will created it if missing. Also set
the PYTHONPATH using os.environ.
* refactored ParseArguments. you can now use either:
instancemanager <action> <project>
or
instancemanager <project> <action>
Also invalid projects or actions will be detected and will throw
a warning.
2006-06-01 Jean-Paul Ladage <j.ladage@zestsoftware.nl>
* src/actions.py: Added backupDatabase action which uses repozo.py
to make an online backup of the instance Data.fs
* src/configuration.py: Added a backupBaseDir method which returns
the backup_basedir_template variable from config. Also added
databasePath method which returns the full path to the instance
Data.fs
* src/defaults.py: Added the backup_basedir_template variable for
storing backups
2006-06-01 Reinout van Rees <reinout@vanrees.org>
* src/actions.py: Added loads more documentation.
* src/quickreinstaller.py: Removed the fake request and the not
quite elegant passing-along of REQUEST. Copied some boilerplate
code Daniel Nouri showed me yesterday (makerequest). Much
neater. Less code! :-)
* src/quickreinstaller.py: Re-added the fake request later on
because cmflinkchecker ruins later reinstalls otherwise. But I
re-added it just inside the actual product reinstall part, so the
code stays cleaner than it was before.
2006-05-01 Maurits van Rees <maurits@vanrees.org>
* src/quickreinstaller.py: Create a plone site with the name of
the config option plone_site_name if it does not exist yet. Needs
more eyeballs though.
* src/action.py, src/sources.py: addProduct() now checks if the
source for that product exists and for now just gives a warning if
it doesn't.
2006-05-29 Reinout van Rees <reinout@vanrees.org>
* src/quickreinstaller.py: Moved the fake request so that the
reinstall method also uses it. Needed for (at least)
textindexng3.
2006-05-29 Maurits van Rees <m.van.rees@zestsoftware.nl>
* bash_completion: Beginning of command completion in bash.
