Assuming you are under the web2py folder using the linux Bash shell you can
do
mkdir applications/appname
cd applications/appname
tar zxvf ../../welcome.w2p
If instead you want to do it from Python, also assuming you are in the
web2py folder:
>>> import os
>>> from gluon.admin import w2p_unpack
>>> os.mkdir("applications/appname")
>>> w2p_unpack('welcome.w2p', "applications/appname")
You can make a script that does this:
<file name="create.py">
import sys
path = sys.argv[1] # first argument is location of web2py
appname = sys.argv[2] # second argument is name of app
os.chdir(path)
import os
from gluon.admin import w2p_unpack
os.mkdir("applications/%s" % appname)
w2p_unpack('welcome.w2p', "applications/%s" % appname)
</file>
then you would use is as
python create.py /path/to/web2py appname
