== Setting Up a ccPublisher Sandbox ==
 
 
 
A sandbox is a checkout of the ccPublisher sourcecode from Subversion.  Setting up a sandbox lets you work with the most recent features, as well as work on the source code yourselfFor background on how the sourcecode is organized see [[ccPublisher 2 Architecture]].
 
 
 
As of 8 February 2006, a C compiler is no longer required to build ccPublisher 2 or P6.

=== Getting Started ===
 
 
Before you begin building you will need to check out the source code.  ccPublisher uses [http://subversion.tigris.org Subversion] for source control.  To check out the most recent copy of the code, execute the following command:
 
 
  $ svn co svn://svn.berlios.de/cctools/publisher/trunk ccpublisher
 
 
This will check out the entire required source tree, including dependencies from the Zope 3 project, into the <code>ccpublisher</code> directory.
 
 
=== Running ===
 
 
Once you have the dependencies listed above installed, run <code>main.py</code> to start ccPublisher:
 
 
  $ python ccp.py

This page describes the prerequisites needed to develop ccPublisher. We try to maintain pure Python within our Subversion repository (either with a vendor tag or svn:external). However, there are a handful of dependencies which are better built on individual systems or installed from binaries.

Developing ccPublisher

Depending on your platform and toolset, your development model may vary slightly. See the appropriate tool/platform-specific page:
