adds command line option parsing to the confwiz.
the previous --uninstall option behaves as before, but it parsed
more explicitly with the twisted usage library.
added is a --server option, which controls which web site the
backend script for configuration is to be found on. (it is looked
for at /native_client.php on the given server) this option can be
used on conjunction with --uninstall to control where the uninstall
is recorded
Options:
-u, --uninstall record uninstall
-s, --server= url of server to contact
[default: https://beta.allmydata.com/]
e.g. confwiz.py -s https://www-test.allmydata.com/
in justin's testing, the uninstall tracking was hanging the uninstall
process (on vista) for now, until we see enough need for it to warrant
more detailed testing/debugging/tweaks, I'm simply disabling the call
to confwiz --uninstall
also this adds a 'welcome page' to the install process. once the user
has installed the windows build, then the installer will open a web
browser to the 'welcome page' on the website ('/welcome_install')
this moves some of the code common to both windows and mac builds into the
allmydata module hierarchy, and cleans up the windows and mac build directories
to import the code from there.
now that web templates are found via pkg_resources, then the windows build
should in fact _use_ pkg_resources, rather than exclude it from the build
to prevent nevow exploding upon import due to the zip provider exception,
so that the pkgreshook can do install location based lookups
the recent changes to webish's template lookup (to use nevow.util hence
pkg_resources) to support the mac build, needs these changes to the windows
build in match the new lookup path
having changed the web template retrieval to use nevow.util.resource_filename
(and hence through pkg_resources when available) that adds a requirement that
py2exe be given a hint to induce it to include the allmydata.web module so that
it becomes importable.
this changes the confwiz so that hitting the 'create account' button, rather than
opening a webbrowser to the register page, instead provides a simple account creation
ui directly, along with changes to the backend (native_client.php) to support that.
also added a 'connecting...' message so the user sees a response when they hit
login or create account, since the getBasedir call can sometimes take up to ~5min
(which is unacceptable for a user product, but this at least somewhat ameliorates
the issue of the ui locking up and not giving the user any feedback while it's
happening)
this adds the latest build of mike's winfuse plugins, now also running as
a windows service (and using the node.url, private/root_dir.cap files from
the noderoot specified by the registry) into the install process.
