Re: [che-dev] Execute bash commands as part of a project template

Thanks, Tyler!

Now I know what the Factories at beta.codenvy.com are good for. I will give them a try.

Any timeline about having something similar in Che?

It's not possible today.

You'd have to programatically invoke a REST command to the workspace after the workspace has been generated, done through third party program that is controlling the creation / destruction of the workspace.

We have the same need internally and have been discussing how we might do this.

Codenvy's factory capability - a form of workspace automation - has post-ws creation command invocation built into it.  So the ability is there.  

But we do not a clean way to do it in Che yet.

Hi,

I want to execute a bash command when a project is created from a project template.

My use case is that PHP applications based on the Zend Framework (this is a PHP web framework) has to be deployed in a specific way on the Apache server. The project has a folder named "public". This folder must be the document root.

So after the project is created, I want to change the Apache document root to point to /projects/my-zend-framework-project.

Other popular PHP frameworks have similar requirements.

I see in the Template model that I can define a user command, but it does not fit my use case completely. I want the command to be executed automatically after project creation without any user interaction. This way I am saving users an important step of the dev environment setup.

How can I achieve this?
