CMFDeployment Introduction This tool allows for static deployment of a CMF site to multiple target systems akin to the deployment features of advanced commerical CMS systems like interwoven or vignette. Features - Allows for custom skins for deployment separate then content management interface. - allows for business logic to filter deployed content using TALES expressions and Python Scripts - Pluggable Deployment Pipelines (Incremental, Full) - Pluggable Deployment Protocols, (currently RsyncSSH) - retraction of deployed content (using RsyncSSH protocol) - Deployment to multiple servers - Merging of DirectoryView (skin) resources into merged content. - Provides for Mime and Extension mapping to content - Provides for configurable URI Resolving of internal links within rendered content. - extensive statistics gathering and logging frameworks - and many more. Changes Summary The ChangeLog has more detailed information. Since Beta1 - Comprehensive Configuration Guide - A sample policy, thats suitable for deploying static copies of a basic plone site. - Memory optimization - Histories now save statistics and Logs from policy execution - Lots of fixes to the uri resolver, with a suite of unit tests - Better support for composite content types - More powerful filtering capabilities Todo Before 1.0 - testing - integrate configuration guide into online help Installation Developed and Tested on Linux (2.4), Solaris 9, Mac OS X (Jaguar) with Python 2.1.3, Zope 2.5.1 and CMF1.3 - Decompress distribution file and move to Products directory. - restart zope - in the root of the cmf site, add an external method:: Id: install_deployment_tool Module: CMFDeployment.Install Function: install - click on the test tab to complete installation Debian users will need to install the pyxml package. Configuration The use of this tool requires configuration of several sections, outlined below. further documentation can be found in the docs directory. Identification Identifies Content that should be deployed. The Portal Catalog is used as a content source, TALES Filters and Python Script Filters can be used to filter the available content set, and restrict what content objects will be deployed. Organization Organizes the content in a target directory structure. The default structure and organization implementation, utilizes the existing cmf structure, although it does allow for mounting from a non portal root folder. Mastering The process of rendering/cooking the content. - skin selection - mime mapping configuration for content - render method selection for content URIS Link Normalization During the mastering process the rendered view of content has extensions attached, and intra object references in rendered content need to be updated, as well as target url host information. Directory View (skin) Merging Skins .. Directory Views certain resources of directory views often need to be deployed alongside content. Deployment The actual deployment of content to the target server.

It has benefited greatly from his insights and wisdom. I'd like to thank my employer for allowing me to opensource this tool that was developed at their cost. Without companies and clients such as them the open source world would be a much poorer place.
