-
-``cubicweb-ctl`` tool
-=====================
-
-`cubicweb-ctl` is the swiss knife to manage *CubicWeb* instances.
-The general syntax is ::
-
-  cubicweb-ctl <command> [options command] <arguments commands>
-
-To view available commands ::
-
-  cubicweb-ctl
-  cubicweb-ctl --help
-
-Please note that the commands available depends on the *CubicWeb* packages
-and cubes that have been installed.
-
-To view the help menu on specific command ::
-
-  cubicweb-ctl <command> --help
-
-Listing available cubes and instance
--------------------------------------
-
-* ``list``, provides a list of the available configuration, cubes
-  and instances.
-
-
-Creation of a new cube
------------------------
-
-Create your new cube cube ::
-
-   cubicweb-ctl newcube
-
-This will create a new cube in
-``/path/to/forest/cubicweb/cubes/<mycube>`` for a Mercurial forest
-installation, or in ``/usr/share/cubicweb/cubes`` for a debian
-packages installation.
-
-Create an instance
--------------------
-
-You must ensure `~/cubicweb.d/` exists prior to this. On windows, the
-'~' part will probably expand to 'Documents and Settings/user'.
-
-To create an instance from an existing cube, execute the following
-command ::
-
-   cubicweb-ctl create <cube_name> <instance_name>
-
-This command will create the configuration files of an instance in
-``~/etc/cubicweb.d/<instance_name>``.
-
-The tool ``cubicweb-ctl`` executes the command ``db-create`` and
-``db-init`` when you run ``create`` so that you can complete an
-instance creation in a single command. But of course it is possible
-to issue these separate commands separately, at a later stage.
-
-Command to create/initialize an instance database
--------------------------------------------------
-
-* ``db-create``, creates the system database of an instance (tables and
-  extensions only)
-* ``db-init``, initializes the system database of an instance
-  (schema, groups, users, workflows...)
-
-Commands to control instances
------------------------------
-
-* ``start``, starts one or more or all instances
-
-of special interest::
-
-  start -D
-
-will start in debug mode (under windows, starting without -D will not
-work; you need instead to setup your instance as a service).
-
-* ``stop``, stops one or more or all instances
-* ``restart``, restarts one or more or all instances
-* ``status``, returns the status of the instance(s)
-
-Commands to maintain instances
-------------------------------
-
-* ``upgrade``, launches the existing instances migration when a new version
-  of *CubicWeb* or the cubes installed is available
-* ``shell``, opens a migration shell for manual maintenance of the instance
-* ``db-dump``, creates a dump of the system database
-* ``db-restore``, restores a dump of the system database
-* ``db-check``, checks data integrity of an instance. If the automatic correction
-  is activated, it is recommanded to create a dump before this operation.
-* ``schema-sync``, synchronizes the persistent schema of an instance with
-  the instance schema. It is recommanded to create a dump before this operation.
-
-Commands to maintain i18n catalogs
-----------------------------------
-* ``i18ncubicweb``, regenerates messages catalogs of the *CubicWeb* library
-* ``i18ncube``, regenerates the messages catalogs of a cube
-* ``i18ninstance``, recompiles the messages catalogs of an instance.
-  This is automatically done while upgrading.
-
-See also chapter :ref:`internationalization`.
-
-Other commands
---------------
-* ``delete``, deletes an instance (configuration files and database)
-
-Command to create an instance for Google AppEngine datastore source
--------------------------------------------------------------------
-* ``newgapp``, creates the configuration files for an instance
-
-This command needs to be followed by the commands responsible for
-the database initialization. As those are specific to the `datastore`,
-specific Google AppEgine database, they are not available for now
-in cubicweb-ctl, but they are available in the instance created.
-
-For more details, please see :ref:`GoogleAppEngineSource` .
