OpenERP buildout recipe
7
=======================
9
This recipe for `Buildout <https://github.com/buildout/buildout>`_ is
10
a fully featured tool allowing you to define and deploy quickly
11
OpenERP installations of any kinds, ranging from development setups to
12
fully automated production deployments or continuous integration.
14
Some of its main features include:
16
* uniformity across OpenERP versions (from 5.0 onwards)
17
* installation of OpenERP server and, if meaningful, GTK and web clients.
18
* retrieval of main software and addons from various sources,
19
including the major version control systems
20
* ability to pinpoint everything for replayability
21
* management of OpenERP configuration
22
* dedicated scripts creation for easy integration of external tools,
23
such as test launchers
24
* packaging: creation of self-contained equivalents for easy
25
deployment in tightly controlled hosting environmenents.
27
All these to be considered together with zc.buildout‘s general
28
properties, such as an extensible configuration file format for easy
29
variation or separation of concerns, native Python distributions
30
installation, and of course the huge ecosystem of other recipes.
