Hi, I don't want to bother the overly active plone-users or the plone developer
centric plone-developers with this, but I am wondering (asked on irc earlier):
11:35 <@aclark> informal pole: what "instance manager" is everyone using to
manage numerous "sandboxes" on
your dev station, instancemanager, buildout, workingenv, custom
shell script, etc.,
combinations of all the above?
zc.buildout
Note that when 3.0 is released (and actually, already with rc1 and I
hope rc2 very soon) this becomes a lot easier:
$ easy_install -U ZopeSkel # once, or if you have an old ZopeSkel
$ paster create -t plone3_buildout myproject #once per project
$ cd myproject
$ python bootstrap.py # once per project
$ ./bin/buildout # each time you change buildout.cfg
$ ./bin/instance fg # starts Zope
I've spent a lot of time working with buildout-based configurations over
the past few months, and I find it very stable and easy to work with. I
also think it's pretty important to note that it's rapidly becoming the
de-fact way of working with pure Zope 3 and Grok projects.
