Status
******
The buildout system is under active development. Some near term
priorities include:
- Fixing `bugs <https://launchpad.net/products/zc.buildout/+bugs>`_
- Making it easier to implement recipes by separating install and update.
- Making buildouts more
`repeatable <https://features.launchpad.net/products/zc.buildout/+spec/repeatable>`_
- Adding support for making distributions from buildouts
- Better error reporing
- Handling of egg extras
- More recipes
Change History
**************
1.0.0b5
=======
Refactored to do more work in buildout and less work in easy_install.
This makes things go a little faster, makes errors a little easier to
handle, and allows extensions (like the sftp extension) to influence
more of the process. This was done to fix a problem in using the sftp
support.
1.0.0b4
=======
- Added an **experimental** extensions mechanism, mainly to support
adding sftp support to buildouts that need it.
- Fixed buildout self-updating on Windows.
1.0.0b3
=======
- Added a help option (-h, --help)
- Increased the default level of verbosity.
- Buildouts now automatically update themselves to new versions of
zc.buildout and setuptools.
- Added Windows support.
- Added a recipe API for generating user errors.
- No-longer generate a py_zc.buildout script.
- Fixed some bugs in variable substitutions.
The characters "-", "." and " ", weren't allowed in section or
option names.
Substitutions with invalid names were ignored, which caused
missleading failures downstream.
- Improved error handling. No longer show tracebacks for user errors.
- Now require a recipe option (and therefore a section) for every part.
- Expanded the easy_install module API to:
- Allow extra paths to be provided
- Specify explicit entry points
- Specify entry-point arguments
1.0.0b2
=======
Added support for specifying some build_ext options when installing eggs
from source distributions.
1.0.0b1
=======
- Changed the bootstrapping code to only install setuptools and
zc.buildout. The bootstrap code no-longer runs the buildout itself.
This was to fix a bug that caused parts to be recreated
unnecessarily because the recipe signature in the initial buildout
reflected temporary locations for setuptools and zc.buildout.
- Now create a minimal setup.py if it doesn't exist and issue a
warning that it is being created.
- Fixed bug in saving installed configuration data. %'s and extra
spaces weren't quoted.
