project_installer

project_installer is a project skeletton installer for python. The virtualenvwrapper plugin is a fork and based on virtualenvwrapper.django.

It can be used in two ways:

• a readymade installer that can be customized and implemented in a standalone-python script, which will install a virtualenvironment, a database and a django-installation, plus accordingrequirements set in the skeletton's requirements.
• a plugin template plugin for virtualenvwrapper to create new projects, which can be used with mkproject. This will install the same except the virtualenvironmentsince it has been setup by the virtualenvwrapper already.

Currently the git repository points to Virtualenv Skeletton Directory, this can be adjusted when using the first approach

Installation

$ pip install git+https://github.com/Libermentix/project_installer.git@master

Usage

Custom Installscript

1. Create a python script, make sure the package is in your PYTHONPATH

#!/usr/bin/env python

from project_installer import ProjectInstaller

installer = ProjectInstaller(
                  path=<PATH_TO_PROJECT_DIR>, project_name='<PROJECT_NAME>'
)
installer()

2. You can adjust the following variables:
   • flavor = 'django_custom' #current default, needs to be a subdirectory git repo
   • git_repo = 'https://github.com/Libermentix/venv_skeletton_directory.git'
   • postactivate='<ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES TO BE SET> n'
   • postdeactivate='<ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES TO BE DELETED> n'
   • settings_module='settings.base' #relevant for django installations
   • is_production=True or False #relevant for django installations
   • settings_module = 'settings.base' #relevant for django installations
   • is_production = False #relevant for django installations
   • domain_prefix = 'www' #relevant for django installations
   • media_prefix = 'upload.cdn.' #relevant for django installations
   • static_prefix = 'static.cdn.' #relevant for django installations
   • domain = '.com' #relevant for django installations

Virtualenvwrapper integration

$ mkproject -t custom_project my_project_site

Extension and Modification

This project setup is based on a custom class based Installer system. It can thus be easily extended.

Todos:

1. extend tests
2. extend documentation

Forked from virtualenvwrapper.django to allow for a more flexible project setup.
