-Installation
-============
-
-Download the source
--------------------
-
-- The `Google AppEngine SDK` can be downloaded from:
-  http://code.google.com/appengine/downloads.html
-
-
-Please follow instructions on how to install `CubicWeb` framework
-(:ref:`CubicWebInstallation`). 
-
-Once ``cubicweb-ctl`` is installed, then you can create a Google
-App Engine extension of our framework by running the command ::
-
-   cubicweb-ctl newgapp <myapp>
-
-This will create a directory containing ::
- 
-   `-- myapp/
-       |-- app.conf
-       |-- app.yaml
-       |-- bin/
-       |    `-- laxctl
-       |-- boostrap_cubes
-       |-- cubes/
-       |    |-- addressbook/
-       |    ..
-       |    |-- comment
-       |    ..
-       |    `-- zone/
-       |-- cubicweb/
-       |-- custom.py
-       |-- cw-cubes/
-       |-- dateutil/
-       |-- docutils/
-       |-- fckeditor/
-       |-- i18n/
-       |-- index.yaml
-       |-- loader.py
-       |-- logilab/
-       |-- main.py
-       |-- migration.py
-       |-- mx/
-       |-- roman.py
-       |-- rql/
-       |-- schema.py
-       |-- simplejson/
-       |-- tools/
-       |-- views.py
-       |-- vobject/
-       |-- yams/
-       `-- yapps/
-
-  
-This skeleton directory is a working `AppEngine` application. You will
-recognize the files ``app.yaml`` and ``main.py``. All the rest is the
-`CubicWeb` framework and its third-party libraries. You will notice that 
-the directory ``cubes`` is a library of reusable cubes.
-
-The main directories that you should know about are:
-
-  - ``cubes`` : this is a library of reusable yams cubes. To use 
-    those cubes you will list them in the variable 
-    `included-yams-cubes` of ``app.conf``. See also :ref:`cubes`. 
-  - [WHICH OTHER ONES SHOULD BE LISTED HERE?]
-
-Dependencies
-------------
-
-Before starting anything, please make sure the following packages are installed:
-  - yaml : by default google appengine is providing yaml; make sure you can
-    import it. We recommend you create a symbolic link yaml instead of installing 
-    and using python-yaml:
-    yaml -> full/path/to/google_appengine/lib/yaml/lib/yaml/
-  - gettext
-
-Setup
------
-
-Once you executed ``cubicweb-ctl newgapp <myapp>``, you can use that ``myapp/`` 
-as an application directory and do as follows.
-
-This installation directory provides a configuration for an instance of `CubicWeb`
-ported for Google App Engine. It is installed with its own command ``laxctl`` 
-which is a port of the command tool ``cubicweb-ctl`` originally developped for 
-`CubicWeb`.
-
-You can have the details of available commands by running ::
-
-   $ python myapp/bin/laxctl --help
-
-
-Generating translation files
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-`CubicWeb` is fully internationalized. Translation catalogs are found in
-``myapp/i18n``. To compile the translation files, use the `gettext` tools
-or the ``laxctl`` command ::
-
-  $ python myapp/bin/laxctl i18nupdate 
-  $ python myapp/bin/laxctl i18ncompile 
-
-Ignore the errors that print "No translation file found for domain
-'cubicweb'". They disappear after the first run of i18ncompile.
-
-.. note:: The command  myapp/bin/laxctl i18nupdate needs to be executed
-   only if your application is using cubes from cubicweb-apps.
-   Otherwise, please skip it.
-
-You will never need to add new entries in the translation catalog. Instead we would
-recommand you to use ``self.req._("msgId")`` in your application code
-to flag new message id to add to the catalog, where ``_`` refers to
-xgettext that is used to collect new strings to translate. 
-While running ``laxctl i18nupdate``, new string will be added to the catalogs.
-
-Generating the data directory
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-In order to generate the ``myapp/data`` directory that holds the static
-files like stylesheets and icons, you need to run the command::
-
-  $ python myapp/bin/laxctl populatedata
-
-Generating the schema diagram
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-There is a view named ``schema`` that displays a diagram of the
-entity-relationship graph defined by the schema. This diagram has to
-be generated from the command line::
-
-  $ python myapp/bin/laxctl genschema
-
-Application configuration
--------------------------
-
-Authentication
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-You have the option of using or not google authentication for your application.
-This has to be define in ``app.conf`` and ``app.yaml``.
-
-In ``app.conf`` modify the following variable::

-  # does this application rely on google authentication service or not.
-  use-google-auth=no
- 
-In ``app.yaml`` comment the `login: required` set by default in the handler::
-
-  - url: .*
-  script: main.py
-  # comment the line below to allow anonymous access or if you don't want to use
-  # google authentication service
-  #login: required
-
-
-
-
-Quickstart : launch the application
------------------------------------
-
-On Mac OS X platforms, drag that directory on the
-`GoogleAppEngineLauncher`.
-
-On Unix and Windows platforms, run it with the dev_appserver::
-
-  $ python /path/to/google_appengine/dev_appserver.py /path/to/myapp/
-
-Once the local server is started, visit `http://MYAPP_URL/_load <http://localhost:8080/_load>`_ and sign in as administrator. 
-This will initialize the repository and enable you to log in into 
-the application and continue the installation.
-
-You should be redirected to a page displaying a message `content initialized`.
-
-Initialize the datastore
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-You, then, want to visit  `http://MYAPP_URL/?vid=authinfo <http://localhost:8080/?vid=authinfo>`_ .
-If you selected not  to use google authentication, you will be prompted to a 
-login form where you should initialize the administrator login (recommended
-to use admin/admin at first). You will then be redirected to a page providing
-you the value to provide to ``./bin/laxctl --cookie``.
-
-If you choosed to use google authentication, then you will not need to set up
-and administrator login but you will get the cookie value as well.
-
-This cookie values needs to be provided to ``laxctl`` commands
-in order to handle datastore administration requests.
-
-.. image:: images/lax-book.02-cookie-values.en.png
-   :alt: displaying the detailed view of the cookie values returned
-
-
-.. note:: In case you are not redirected to a page providing the 
-   option --cookie value, please visit one more time  
-   `http://MYAPP_URL/?vid=authinfo <http://localhost:8080/?vid=authinfo>`_ .
-
-Once, you have this value, then return to the shell and execute ::
- 
-  $ python myapp/bin/laxctl db-init --cookie='dev_appserver_login=test@example.com:True; __session=7bbe973a6705bc5773a640f8cf4326cc' localhost:8080
-
-.. note:: In the case you are not using google authentication, the value returned
-   by `http://MYAPP_URL/?vid=authinfo <http://localhost:8080/?vid=authinfo>`_ 
-   will look like :
-   --cookie='__session=2b45d1a9c36c03d2a30cedb04bc37b6d'
-
-Log out by clicking in the menu at the top right corner
-and restart browsing from `http://MYAPP_URL/ <http://localhost:8080>`_ 
-as a normal user.
-
-Unless you did something to change it, http://MYAPP_URL should be
-http://localhost:8080/
