===============
SIMO - Buildout
===============

This is a buildout system for SIMO. It is based on zc.buildout.


Installation
------------

If you're using a source distribution, this isn't needed:

 $ svn co http://svn.simo-project.org/simo/trunk simo

Once you have the source, run in the root SIMO folder:

 $ python bootstrap.py
 $ python build_env.py


Developing
----------

The SIMO code is under ``src/``. It is installed as a
development egg so any changes made to the source code are immediately
available for use.

There is a python interpreter available under::

  $ ./bin/python

that has SIMO available for importing and use.

If you're using multiple zc.buildout based buildouts for your
development, you may wish to share the downloaded eggs and tarballs
among them to save disk space. To do this create a file::

  ~/.buildout/default.cfg

and put the following there::

  [buildout]
  eggs = /path/to/shared/egg/container
  download-directory = /path/to/shared/package/container
