Clayton Parker: "Buildout: fostering repeatability"

A talk at Plone Symposium East 2009. Track A, 10am, May 28.

Over the past few years, zc.buildout has gained a lot of momentum in the Plone world. Buildout has even found its way into the Plone installers. There is good reason for its acceptance since buildout allows you to keep your project builds consistent across platforms and users.

In this talk, Six Feet Up's Lead Developer Clayton Parker will go over how to utilize the buildout configuration syntax, how to create a buildout for your project and how to run buildout from the command line. He will also describe the various buildout recipes and how to extend your buildout configuration to meet your needs.

All talk attendees will receive a free revised edition of the Buildout Quick Reference card.
