ZC Buildout recipe to build and install ejabberd.

Project description

The ejabberd http://www.process-one.net/en/ejabberd/ is a distributed, fault-tolerant technology that allows the creation of large-scale instant messaging applications. This buildout recipe downloads and installs ejabberd into an isolated development environment.

A brief documentation

This recipe takes a number of options:

erlang-path

The path where to find the erlc command (default = /usr/local/bin).

url

The URL to download the ejabberd source distribution.

prefix

Prefix path (default = <buildout directory>).

make

Alternate make command (e.g. gmake).

Tests

We will define a buildout template used by the recipe:

>>> buildout_cfg = """
... [buildout]
... parts = ejabberd
... offline = true
...
... [ejabberd]
... recipe = rod.recipe.ejabberd
... url = http://www.process-one.net/downloads/ejabberd/2.1.6/ejabberd-2.1.6.tar.gz
... """

We’ll start by creating a buildout:

>>> import os.path
>>> write('buildout.cfg', buildout_cfg)

Running the buildout gives us:

>>> output = system(buildout)
>>> if '/sample-buildout/parts/ejabberd' in output: True
... else: print output
True
