This documents the procedure I used to setup a Grok virtual environment for working on the Viejo content management system. Note that as of September 29th, grokproject 0.9 and grok 0.14 work on python2.5. So the easy_install-2.4 can be omitted.
sudo apt-get install build-essential python-dev python-setuptools subversion bzr
sudo easy_install virtualenv
mkdir viejo_virtualenv
cd viejo_virtualenv
virtualenv --no-site-packages virtualgrok
source virtualgrok/bin/activate
easy_install grokproject
grokproject Viejo
cd Viejo
rm -rf setup.py buildout.cfg src
bzr checkout lp:~viejo-team/viejo-code/yagni .
./bin/buildout
./bin/test
Now, we're good to go TDD. The main files and directories of our project are:
setup.py -> Mostly to include packages required for our project to work
buildout.cfg -> Configuration for our instance
src/viejo/models.py -> Stores the models of our application. See the Model-view-controller for more
src/viejo/tests -> Directory to store our unit doctests
src/viejo/ftests -> Directory to store our functional doctests
