Note that Paste Script is intended to this (among other things), and the command would probably go like: $ paster create --template=quixote You could also create, say, a dulcinea template that required the quixote template, thus created all the Quixote files as well, and added the Dulcinea-specific files. Myghty (latest release) is an example of a project that has a couple different Paste templates, for different levels of minimalism vs. completeness. A template can be pretty simple, just a bunch of files copied into place, potentially Cheetah templates that will be filled (if the file ends with _tmpl). It encourages, but doesn't require, that the result be a setuptools project. If it is a setuptools project, you can add project-specific commands (like, say, "create-db"). Also if it is a setuptools project, it's easier to make it usable with paste deploy, so you could do: $ paster serve SomeApp/docs/test_config.ini to start up the application with some testing configuration, probably a builtin web server, etc. Paste Script is described in: http://pythonpaste.org/script/ http://pythonpaste.org/script/developer.html -- Ian Bicking | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://blog.ianbicking.org _______________________________________________ Quixote-users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.mems-exchange.org/mailman/listinfo/quixote-users
