For "runtime writable" stuff, I would normally *not* use the software
directory (sufficiently-hardened apps may be running as a user without
permissions to create / modify files there). Instead, I use the
following layout:
/path/to/virtualenv_or_buildout
bin/
etc/
production.ini
include/
lib/
src/
myapp/
var/
log/
Only 'var' and its contents would need to be writable by the service user.
So, the INI file specifies the writable directory using
'%(here)s/../var'. For examples using '%(here)s', see:
https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/blob/master/pyramid/scaffolds/alchemy/production.ini_tmpl
https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/blob/master/pyramid/scaffolds/zodb/production.ini_tmpl
(note that those are templates used by 'pcreate' to render a scaffold).
