This is a tiny Plone product that provides some often used methods for an Install.py script. You just have to unpack the product in your Plone Products folder, that's all.
InstallUtils provides installation methods to be used in the Install.py script for Plone products. The bundle takes the complexity out of your Install script,
into separately tested installer methods. This greatly enhances the stability of your Install procedures. The bundle provides numerous methods often
used in an installation procedure, like installing external methods, new portal roles, workflows, properties, etc.
All methods are coded in separate files, and are imported from the utils.py file. If you wish to add your own methods, please be so kind as to obey the following rules, then send us the method:
- add python doc;
- add code comments;
- add print statements when starting your method, and when ending your install, and in between whatever you're installing;
- have a beer.
