A utility that generates an installation script for Installer, using a reaction based graphical front end.
| | Status: | Open | | Priority: | Medium | | Category: | workbench/general | | Description: | By using a graphical interface, the Installer script generation utility can allow anyone to create standardized installation packages quickly and easily.
For users, this means more well written install scripts, and for developers this reduces the time needed at that final step.
The simplified operation of the program will be :-
- Select file(s) to install
- Choose where to install files on users computer
- Utility generates Installer based script for package
Features :-
- Easy to use reaction based GUI
- Allow single or multiple files to be selected by a file lister
- Arrange hierarchy of where to install files at destination, including quick options to install selected files to LIBS: or other system assigns
- Check selected files if they already exist, and also check versions of said files, so newer ones are not overwritten
- Update user-startup with needed assigns
- At end of install option to open readme file and/or run program itself
Would be nice to have:
- Create log of script generation
- Ability to preview install
- Ask user if they want icon added to Dock
- Create installation logfile at users end
- Generate installation script for new python based installer
