GenericSetup Product README
Overview
This product provides a mini-framework for expressing the configured
state of a Zope Site as a set of filesystem artifacts. These artifacts
consist of declarative XML files, which spell out the configuration
settings for each "tool" in the site , and supporting scripts / templates,
in their "canonical" filesystem representations.
Configurations Included
The 'setup_tool' knows how to export / import configurations and scripts
for the following tools:
- (x) removal / creation of specified tools
- (x) itself :)
- (x) the role / permission map on the "site" object (its parent)
- (x) properties of the site object
Extending The Tool
Third-party products extend the tool by registering handlers for
import / export of their unique tools.
See doc/handlers.txt for a step by step how-to.
Providing Profiles
GenericSetup doesn't ship with any profile. They have to be provided by
third-party products and depend on the registered handlers.
See doc/profiles.txt for more details.
