this is a general question, but one that has lingered with me from the beginning. what exactly is the desired procedure for creating sites under binarycloud with regard to the make system? (this of course applies to the future state of BC rather than now) for example, say i have installed binarycloud in /usr/local/binarycloud, and i have a few modules installed in /usr/local/binarycloud/user/mod, etc etc. now, to create a NEW site, what is the process? i imagine it's something like this... - i define several XML files to specify pageDefs, dataSources, entityDefs, etc etc. - i run 'make site' or equivalent, - i copy the build dir to a place to be served by apache - customize/expand my pages, do extra stuff, post-install stuff here the need for multiple make targets seems apparent here, though non-existant at the moment. alex, could you help enlighten us? jason |

And you hit the nail on the head: we had a big discussion about this a while ago, and we all agreed: multiple make targets. -a |

Hi, I haven't been looking at binary cloud for about two months now.... I wonder what's the status now, what's ready and what's not ? Cheers Jimmy |

Note that the code that works, works. I'm trying to make sure that as each piece is released, it's solid. Suffice it to say that if you need querymanager or Page, you're using production code. We could always use extra hands for tasks, I'm working through specs for a number of tasks for BC that I'll release in the coming week. best, _alex |

Just wanted to point out / ask about the multi-site Makefile building. This seems so fundamental, I would think it would be nice to have this functional before the managers.

What is the status on this? It's going to happen next. Multi site makes will be finished right after the tag parsing stuff. want to help? :) _a > > > I haven't been looking at binary cloud for about two months now....

Actually, this is why I asked.. Justin and I have been following intently, sorta waiting for a moment to help. It would seem at this point that the best way to involve developers is with a very descriptive task/todo list. I'll research this a bit Monday. > > Just wanted to point out / ask about the multi-site Makefile building. > > This seems so fundamental, I would think it would be nice to have this > > functional before the managers.

That is exactly what I'm doing, i saw that need too :) That spec is in my queue, I'll move it up to the "top of the list" and check it into CVS (today, if possible) I've also got a 'roadmap' going for EntityManager stuff that I'm going to write up and send to the list. best, _alex |
