Our Motivation: Users •Thousands of people use ZopeSkel •Use for buildouts, themes, content types, products •Continually answer template questions incorrectly •ZopeSkel made by developers for developers •Themers and integrators are the actual users •Recognize this •Separate common usage from developer usage •Simplify the use of ZopeSkel 18

Our Goals •Better questions in templates •Templates with verbose help •Repeatable personals preferences •Context sensitive questions •Fewer questions •Remove diagnostics from standard output •Documentation on good template writing •Refactor tests •Wrap and rename 19

Wrap and Rename 20

Our Design •Verbose description var in templates •onchange hook called on var change •$HOME/.zopeskel •easy attribute on questions •pre( ) template warning •post( ) template instructions •promote consistency in template 21

Day One Accomplishment 22

Button Is Dead; Long Live Button bin/zopeskel 23

bin/zopeskel $ bin/zopeskel Usage: zopeskel <template> <output-name> [var1=value] ... [varN=value] zopeskel --help Full help zopeskel --list List template verbosely, with details zopeskel --make-config-file Output .zopeskel prefs file Plone Development | archetype: A Plone project that uses Archetypes content types | kss_plugin: A project for a KSS plugin | plone: A project for Plone products | plone2_theme: A theme for Plone 2.1 | plone3_portlet: A Plone 3 portlet 24

bin/zopeskel --help $ bin/zopeskel --help This script allows you to create basic skeletons for plone and zope products and buildouts based on best-practice templates. It is a wrapper around PasteScript ("paster"), providing an easier syntax for invoking and better help. Invoking this script -------------------- Basic usage:: zopeskel <template> (To get a list of the templates, run the script without any arguments; 25

bin/zopeskel --list $ bin/zopeskel --list Plone Development ----------------- archetype: A Plone project that uses Archetypes content types This creates a Plone project that uses Archetypes content types. It has local commands that will allow you to add content types and to add ﬁelds to your new content types. kss_plugin: A project for a KSS plugin This creates a project for a KSS plugins ('Kinetic Style Sheets', a Plone 3 framwork for JavaScript/AJAX). plone: A project for Plone products 26

Pre-run Template Help $ bin/zopeskel plone3_buildout plone3_buildout: A buildout for Plone 3 installation This template creates a Plone 3 buildout (for most users, a preferred way to get an installation of Plone 3 is to use the appropriate installer, as these are all buildout-based since Plone 3.1) If at any point, you need additional help for a question, you can enter '?' and press RETURN. Enter project name: 27

Template question help Enter project name: ? ************************************************************************** ** *** NOTE: You probably don't want to use this template! ** Since Plone 3.1, the preferred way to get a buildout-based setup ** for Plone is to use the standard installer for your operating ** system (the Windows installer, the Mac installer, or the Uniﬁed ** Installer for Linux/Unix/BSD). These give you a best-practice, ** widely-used setup with an isolated Python and a well-documented ** buildout. This template is here for older versions of Plone and ** for experts who explicitly want a raw, non-installer-based ** installation. ** (This message is particularly aimed at people following out-of- ** date books/documentation that suggest this is the right way to get ** a Plone-based buildout. This is no longer the case.) ************************************************************************** Enter project name: 28

Template question help Expert Mode? (What question mode would you like? (easy/expert/all)?) ['easy']: ? | In easy mode, you will be asked fewer, more common questions. | In expert mode, you will be asked to answer more advanced, | technical questions. | In all modes, no questions will be skipped--even things like | author_email, which would normally be a default set in a | $HOME/.zopeskel ﬁle. Expert Mode? (What question mode would you like? (easy/expert/all)?) ['easy']: 29

Nested Package Names: Expert Mode This template expects a project name with 2 dots in it (a 'nested namespace', like 'foo.bar.baz'). Enter project name: plone.app.example If at any point, you need additional help for a question, you can enter '?' and press RETURN. Expert Mode? (What question mode would you like?
