Iceberg, Massimo Di Pierro, Your idea is great. These influence me and I rewrite .flx file. It is created on same github project with branch "get_new_stable". https://github.com/nus/web2py-for-fluxflex/tree/get_new_stable We can import this branch by using "Github import" menu.
The branch doing: 1. get new stable file from web2py.com. 2. unzip 3. deploying This idea's strong point: - User can get new stable file everytime. Iceberg, How to write .flx file is in http://jp.doc.fluxflex.com/ and other library code. 2011/8/23 Massimo Di Pierro <massimo.dipie...@gmail.com>: > I think there should be a recommended way to created branded versions > of web2py. > > I would recommend: > - getting the latest official stable > - unzip > - add your own "init" app, with landing branded page etc, linking > admin. > - have a standard mechanism to add a brand logo to admin as well > - rezip and distribute > > we could create a hook (div) for the admin logo, a sample branded > init, and a script to create this. > > Massimo > > > > > On Aug 22, 2:24 am, Iceberg <iceb...@21cn.com> wrote: >> Omi Chiba, >> >> Thanks VERY MUCH for your effort on building the web2py installation >> package (a.k.a. library on fluxflex).
