Build standard or custom profiles of the OpenLayers library

Project description

***********************************************
Recipe for custom build profiles for OpenLayers
***********************************************

.. contents::

The recipe provides the means to create `custom build profiles`_ for the OpenLayers_ javascript library. It is derived largely from hexagonit.recipe.cmmi. A compressed, single OpenLayers.js file, and accompanying "img" and "theme" directories are created in the named directory under the buildout's "parts" directory.

For example, consider the following buildout.cfg file::

[buildout]
parts = openlayers-2.7-wms

[openlayers-2.7-wms]
recipe = zgeo.recipe.openlayers
url = http://openlayers.org/download/OpenLayers-2.7.tar.gz
include =
OpenLayers/Map.js
OpenLayers/Layer/WMS.js

Building it out::

$ bin/buildout -c buildout.cfg

Detailed Documentation
**********************

Supported options
=================

url
URL to the package that will be downloaded and extracted. The
supported package formats are .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, and .zip. The
value must be a full URL,
e.g. http://openlayers.org/download/OpenLayers-2.7.tar.gz. The
``path`` option can not be used at the same time with ``url``.

path
Path to a local directory containing the source code to be built
and installed. The directory must contain the ``configure``
script. The ``url`` option can not be used at the same time with
``path``.

md5sum
MD5 checksum for the package file. If available the MD5
checksum of the downloaded package will be compared to this value
and if the values do not match the execution of the recipe will
fail.

patch-binary
Path to the ``patch`` program. Defaults to 'patch' which should
work on any system that has the ``patch`` program available in the
system ``PATH``.

patch-options
Options passed to the ``patch`` program. Defaults to ``-p0``.

patches
List of patch files to the applied to the extracted source. Each
file should be given on a separate line.

keep-compile-dir
Switch to optionally keep the temporary directory where the
package was compiled. This is mostly useful for other recipes that
use this recipe to compile a software but wish to do some
additional steps not handled by this recipe. The location of the
compile directory is stored in ``options['compile-directory']``.
Accepted values are 'true' or 'false', defaults to 'false'.


Additionally, the recipe honors the ``download-directory`` option set
in the ``[buildout]`` section and stores the downloaded files under
it. If the value is not set a directory called ``downloads`` will be
created in the root of the buildout and the ``download-directory``
option set accordingly.

The recipe will first check if there is a local copy of the package
before downloading it from the net. Files can be shared among
different buildouts by setting the ``download-directory`` to the same
location.

Example usage
=============

We'll use a simple tarball to demonstrate the recipe::

>>> import os.path
>>> src = join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'testdata')
>>> ls(src)
- OpenLayers-2.7.tar.gz

Let's create a buildout to build and install the package::

>>> write('buildout.cfg',
... """
... [buildout]
... parts = package
...
... [package]
... recipe = zgeo.recipe.openlayers
... url = file://%s/OpenLayers-2.7.tar.gz
... include =
... OpenLayers/Map.js
... OpenLayers/Layer/WMS.js
... """ % src)

This will download, extract and build our demo package with the
default build options::

>>> print system(buildout)

Installing checkouts
====================

Sometimes instead of downloading and building an existing tarball we
need to work with code that is already available on the filesystem,
for example an SVN checkout.

Instead of providing the ``url`` option we will provide a ``path``
option to the directory containing the source code.

Let's demonstrate this by first unpacking our test package to the
filesystem and building that::

>>> checkout_dir = tmpdir('checkout')
>>> import setuptools.archive_util
>>> setuptools.archive_util.unpack_archive('%s/OpenLayers-2.7.tar.gz' % src,
... checkout_dir)
>>> ls(checkout_dir)
d OpenLayers-2.7

>>> write('buildout.cfg',
... """
... [buildout]
... parts = package
...
... [package]
... recipe = zgeo.recipe.openlayers
... path = %s/OpenLayers-2.7
... include =
... OpenLayers/Map.js
... OpenLayers/Layer/WMS.js
... """ % checkout_dir)

Since using the ``path`` implies that the source code has been
acquired outside of the control of the recipe also the responsibility
of managing it is outside of the recipe.
