*yawn*.. been a while since I last posted anything technical here. So some update.

I just started playing with Grok while trying to understand more on Zope3 stuff. So this post and the next few posts will focus mainly on Grok and how to do stuff on it (from my understanding).

Installing Grok

Using buildout, here's the buildout.cfg:

[buildout]
parts = grok
download-cache = downloads

[grok]
recipe = zc.recipe.egg
eggs = 
   grokproject

Using virtenv / normal python

easy_install-2.4 grokproject

Creating a Grok Project

grokproject --zopectl [projectname]

That command will create another buildout with grok and zope3.
