|
Basic installation requires Python 2.2, and the Zope 'Interface' package. |
Python 2.2.2 or better is required. Some portions of PEAK may support only |
If you want to run the test suite or use any of TransWarp's frameworks |
POSIX-like and/or Windows operating systems. |
(e.g. database interaction, UML/XMI processing, etc.), you will also need |
|
Aaron Watters' 'kjbuckets' library for your version of Python. See |
Note: if you have installed previous versions of PEAK or TransWarp, be |

sure to remove them before installing this one. A lot of things have |

SCRIPTS |
|
|
|
On operating systems where 'os.name == "posix"', PEAK installs a Python |
|
script named 'peak'. 'peak' is an application bootstrap script that |
|
can invoke any object that is referenceable via the PEAK naming system. |
|
Run the 'peak' script for usage info, or see the 'Bootstrap' class in |
|
'peak.running.commands' for more on how to make objects bootable via 'peak'. |

Aaron Watters' 'kjbuckets' Module |
|
|
See "http://phd.pp.ru/Software/Python/#kjbuckets":http://phd.pp.ru/Software/Python/#kjbuckets |
PEAK now includes a copy of Aaron Watters' 'kjbuckets' module for |
for information on downloading and installing kjbuckets for various |
your convenience, and automatically installs it alongside PEAK in |
platforms and versions of Python. Note that if you're on Windows, all you |
your Python 'site-packages' directory. (Note that this will overwrite |
need to do is copy the '2.2/kjbuckets.pyd' to |
any existing installation of the 'kjbuckets' module.) |
'/Python22/Lib/site-packages/kjbuckets.pyd', and you're done. On other |
|
platforms, install as you would any other Python module, with:: |
'kjbuckets' is copyright Aaron Watters and contributors; please see |
|
the 'src/kjbuckets/COPYRIGHT.txt' file for details of its license. |
|
|
|
The Zope 3 'Interface' and 'Persistence' Packages |
|
|
|
PEAK includes a copy of the following packages from the Zope X3 Milestone 2 |
|
release, and will install them unless Zope X3 is available on 'sys.path' |
|
at the time 'setup.py' is run: |
|
|
|
- 'zope.interface' |
|
|
|
- 'persistence' |
|
|
|
- 'ZConfig' |
|
|
|
These packages are automatically installed alongside PEAK in your |
|
'site-packages' directory, unless you specify an alternate installation |
|
location to 'setup.py'. Note that this will overwrite any existing |
|
installation of these packages. |
|
|
|
To prevent overwriting versions of these packages that were installed |
|
separately, 'setup.py' attempts to detect the presence of Zope X3 by |
|
importing 'zope.component' (which is not distributed with PEAK). If you |
|
have a 'zope.component' package on your 'sys.path' when 'setup.py' runs, |
|
'setup.py' will assume you have a complete Zope X3 installation, and it |
|
will not install any of the Zope packages listed above, in order to avoid |
|
overwriting newer versions from your Zope installation. |
|
|
|
The 'zope.interface', 'persistence', and 'ZConfig' packages are |
|
Copyright Zope Corporation and contributors; please see the 'LICENSE.txt' |
|
files in their directories for details of their licenses. |
|
|
|
TESTING YOUR INSTALLATION |
|
|
|
PEAK comes with a moderately-sized built-in test suite. If you wish to |
|
run it after installation, you can do so like this:: |
|
|
|
python setup.py test |
|
|
|
This will run over 120 tests on various parts of PEAK. If you have |
|
installed everything correctly, 100% of the tests should succeed. If |
|
anything is broken, you will probably be unable to run the tests at all. |
|
|
|
If you'd like to run only a portion of the test suite, you can supply |
|
the '--test-module' or '-m' option to the test command as follows:: |
|
|
|
python setup.py test --test-module=peak.util.tests |
|
|
|
python setup.py test -m peak.tests |
|
|
|
And so on. You can also use 'python setup.py -q test' to make the tests |
|
run more "quietly". |
|
|
|
|
|
|
python setup.py install |
|
|
|
Note: if you aren't on Windows, and for some reason can't compile the |
|
kjbuckets module, you can as a last resort download this file: |
|
|
|
"http://www.chordate.com/kwParsing/kjbuckets0.py":http://www.chordate.com/kwParsing/kjbuckets0.py |
|
|
|
Rename it to "kjbuckets.py", and place it in your Python path. This runs |
|
slower than the C version, but it'll do in a pinch. |
|
|
|
|
|
The Zope 'Interface' Package |
|
|
|
The easiest place to find a copy of the Interface package is in the |
|
'lib/python' directory of a Zope installation. Just copy it over to your |
|
main Python path, or add the 'lib/python' directory to your Python path. |
|
|
|
Failing that, you can download a copy direct from Zope.org's CVS repository: |
|
|
|
"http://cvs.zope.org/Packages/Interface/Interface.tar.gz?tarball=1":http://cvs.zope.org/Packages/Interface/Interface.tar.gz?tarball=1 |

TESTING YOUR INSTALLATION |
|
|
|
TransWarp comes with a moderately-sized built-in test suite. If you wish to |
|
run it after installation, you can do so like this:: |
|
|
|
python setup.py test |
|
|
|
This will run about 75 tests on various parts of TransWarp. If you have |
|
installed everything correctly, 100% of the tests should succeed. If |
|
you're missing any needed parts, you will probably be unable to run the |
|
tests at all. |
|
|
|
If you'd like to run only a portion of the test suite, you can supply |
|
the '--test-module' or '-m' option to the test command as follows:: |
|
|
|
python setup.py test --test-module=TW.Database.tests |
|
|
|
python setup.py test -m TW.API.tests |
|
|
|
And so on. You can also use 'python setup.py -q test' to make the tests |
|
run more "quietly". |
