This is initial release of HalWeb, there will be changes incompatible with the current one. so please be patient.

If you are eager to try it you need manualy to setup the AppenginePath in the config.py to HalWeb installation.

Offcourse you need to have Appengine on your system

Any of this three shoud work:

shell>python setup.py install or shell>easy_install halweb or shell>python setup.py install`

1. open hal.py in your shell by typing hal:

   cmd>hal

2. Create a project:

   shell>hal
   hal>project /home/myhome/MyProjects/TestProject

3. Run your project:

   shell>cd /home/myhome/MyProjects/TestProject
   shell>python manage.py
   hal>run

Woalla you have your project setup and running

Open the manage.py console in you project and type: :

hal>>mvcfh Galery.Photo

The console will give you the opportunity to setup the model:

..............class Galery.Photo(db.Model):
Property0>........

Populate it like this:

..............class Galery.Photo(db.Model):
Property0>........Name str required=True
Property1>........Description txt
Property2>........DateCreated date
Property3>........Content blob
Property4>........MimeType str
Property5>........
Save Galery.Photo?(y/n) y

With this you have defined the Model, It's controller, forms and also address binding which is added in the handlerMap.py file

You can also add different Models under the 'Package' Galery and use them in the code

Later you can

With

Exporting it to some directory:

hal>pack package Galery /some/destination/NameOfThePackage   

Also unpack it from there to some other Hal project:

hal>unpack package Galery /from/the/package/directory

Or delete it if you were just playing:

hal>del package Galery

Note: Official Online Hal Packages Repository is comming soon

I'll put more in near future, explaining how betautifully it works. :)
