“mostly trivial” to write a buildout.cfg to install Plone

a working Plone, but not necessarily a repeatable buildout

If you are completely new to buildout

install buildout first

curl -O http://python-distribute.org/distribute_setup.py

python distribute_setup.py

easy_install zc.buildout

mkdir plone

cd plone

buildout init

bin/instance console

Undo was no longer an option

Truncating the Data.fs (removing all transactions since, including the offending one)

undesirable

small additional buildout configuration file

beforestorage.cfg

enable-product-installation

tells Zope not to try and write product information to the ZODB

because zc.beforestorage puts your ZODB in read-only mode

<zodb_db main>    # Main database    cache-size 650000%import zc.beforestorage%import relstorage <before> before 2008-12-08T10:29:03    <relstorage>        <oracle>            dsn RELSTORAGE_DSN            password xxxxxxxxx            user xxxxxxxx        </oracle>    </relstorage> </before>    mount-point /</zodb_db>

when you start the instance, you are in the past

found the lost object

Export/Import

save the export on the server

buildout with your regular buildout file

restart

import the .zexp

reindex the imported content

using Repoze, WSGI and Deliverance

don't want to be dependent on a live internet connection for production deployment

based on the good-py

don't extend any remote services in the uber-buildouts

the goodness of: ZEO server4 ZEO clients running PasterSoftware load balancing using haproxyA Varnish cachenginx serving static content

Simply add one more line to your buildout.cfg within [buildout] section:

how simple it is to break a buildout

Links in a package’s description should not be parsed

Dead links should not be parsed by setuptools when running a buildout

setuptools have to ignore duplicated URLs in a package’s index

zodb cache site of 5000 objects

suggest smaller cache

cache megabyte limiter

"eggs"

known to work together

easy_install

zc.buildout
