Installation
If you're installing from the Plone4ArtistsCalendar bundle release you simply need to install all of the included Zope2 products into your $INSTANCE_HOME/Products directory.
If you're installing just the Plone4ArtistsCalendar Zope 2 product, you'll need the other dependencies installed manually as well. Please see their install files for proper installation instructions.
Configuration within a Plone site is simply a matter of going to the Add/Remove Products configlet and installing the Plone4ArtistsCalendar product.
Basic Usage
Note: The Plone4ArtistsCalendar product does not install any content types.
- folders and smart folders can be toggled to be calendar enhanced (become calendars) by selecting the configure calendar menu item in their respective actions drop down menu's.
Directory Layout
Please note that this product is just a Zope 2 integration layer for the p4a.calendar and p4a.plonecalendar python packages. See the actual python package directories within the $INSTANCE_HOME/Products/Plone4ArtistsCalendar/pythonlib directory for further details.
Testing
To run the Plone4ArtistsCalendar tests you must use the standard Zope testrunner:
$INSTANCE_HOME/bin/zopectl test -m Products.Plone4ArtistsCalendar.tests
Running the tests any other way (such as with the -s option) will result in the testrunner finding unrunnable tests due to PYTHONPATH mangling.
