In case anyone is interested. I use it under OS X, but it ought to work under any unixalike. Put it in (say) update.sh in the same directory as web2py/, and run it to:
1. create a snapshot of your current web2py/, renamed to its web2py version 2. download the new source version 3. unzip it over your existing web2py/ 4. run the web2py application-update command Seems to work OK, ymmv, your own risk, always back up, don't come crying to me, etc. #!/bin/bash # TARGET=web2py # web2py or a soft link to web2py read a VERSION c < $TARGET/VERSION SAVE=$TARGET-$VERSION URL=http://www.web2py.com/examples/static/web2py_src.zip ZIP=`basename $URL` # Save a copy of the current version, # but don't overwrite a previous save. # if [ -d $SAVE ]; then echo "Rename or remove $SAVE first" >&2 cat $SAVE/VERSION >&2 exit 1 fi if [ -d $TARGET ]; then echo "Old version:" cat $TARGET/VERSION cp -R $TARGET $SAVE fi # # Fetch the new version # curl -O $URL # # Unzip into web2py # unzip -o $ZIP echo "New version:" cat $TARGET/VERSION # # Update the web2py standard applications # python $TARGET/web2py.py --upgrade=yes --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
