CMFQuickInstallerTool is a facility for comfortable
activation/deactivation of CMF compliant products inside a CMF site.
Therefore it has to be installed as a tool inside a CMF portal, where
it stores the information about the installed products.
The
requirements for a product to be installable with QuickInstallerTool
are quite simple (almost all existing CMF products fulfill them):
- External Product: The product has to implement an external method 'install' in a python module 'Install.py' in its Extensions directory.
- TTW Product: The product has to have a 'Install' folder and
have a python script titled 'install' inside that folder.
Products can be uninstalled and QuickInstellerTool removes the following items a product creates during install:
- portal types
- portal skins
- portal actions
- portalobjects (objects created in the root of the portal)
- workflows
- left and right slots (also checks them only for the portal)
Attention: QuickInstallerTool just tracks which objects are ADDED, but not what is changed or deleted.
second Attention: QuickInstallerTool just can uninstall products that are installed via QuickInstallerTool
