Or we could put a sample zope.conf somewhere on the web (heck, in svn is fine, using those nice *checkout* urls we've already used for downloading buildout's bootstrap.py or the Zope 2.12.2 versions.cfg).
Sphinx also supports the ability to insert a link to a file. Maybe put the complete zope.conf as a link below the example start-of-zope.conf?
It'd be even better if there was a command I could run to generate an up-to-date default zope.conf, like mkzopeinstance does. Is there one?
In my dreams, I wanted a (waves hands something like) buildout recipe that would: - take a skeleton - zip it up - put that zipped data and some unpacking code into a single .py file For me, the skeleton would be a zope2 buildout instance containing: - bootstrap .py - a minimal buildout.cfg - some empty directories for logs, var, etc, etc Sadly, that instancebuilder script/recipe is likely to remain a dream :-(
Now the "using buildout" section of INSTALL.rst leaves the user to write one completely from scratch
Anyone using that section of the docs should be happy doing that ;-)
without any tool support or even a link to documentation, and I'd like to fix this in case I have to set up a Zope 2.x instance ever again ;-)
You know where the skeleton zope.conf lives though... Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Batch Processing & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
