Fwd: Introducing live-xmaker

[bms.debian at barwap.com (Brendan Sleight)]

Hi All,

(Sorry if this is double post wrong to address)

I put together a little python script, live-xmaker. [1][2][3].
Live-xmaker is a command line front-end to live-helper, inspired by
morphix-mmaker[4][5] (written by Alex de Landgraaf). This allows all
the configurations for a liveCD build to be specified in one XML file.

For example:-
 live-xmaker --xml /usr/share/live-xmaker/templates/lightgui_all.xml
--output ./lightgui.iso

1: http://autotesting.livecd.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=live-xmaker.git;a=summary
2: git clone git://autotesting.livecd.org/git/live-xmaker.git
3: http://autotesting.livecd.org/debs/live-xmaker_0.1-1_i386.deb
4: http://www.morphix.org
5: http://www.morphix.org/doc/how_tos/all_man_pages/html/ar01s07.html

Example templates show what options are currently from a complex
example [6] to more simple examples[7][8].

7: http://autotesting.livecd.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=live-xmaker.git;a=blob_plain;f=templates/lightgui.xml
8: http://autotesting.livecd.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=live-xmaker.git;a=blob_plain;f=templates/very-simple-xfce.xml

I plan to update live-xmaker with all the possible options available
via live-helper.

Feedback is very welcome. I have also cc'ed the morphix-developers
mailing list as it may pique the interest of follow morphers.

Enjoy,
Brendan M. Sleight
