How to use Radiant trunk in your subversion-managed project

If you are developing a project based around Radiant, and want to use Radiant trunk (or some other non-gem version), here is how to do that.

1. cd ~/src
2. svn co http://svn.radiantcms.org/radiant/trunk/radiant/ radiant_trunk
3. cd radiant_trunk/config
4. ln -s database.mysql.yml database.yml
5. script/generate instance -d mysql ~/your/project/trunk
6. cd ~/your/project # <code>svn add trunk</code> # <code>svn commit -m"initial radiant file structure, without pointing to a custom radiant version (yet)"</code> # <code>cd vendor</code> and set your Radiant version... ## With a "subversion external":http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.advanced.externals.html:<br/> <code>svn propset svn:externals 'radiant http://svn.radiantcms.org/radiant/trunk/radiant/ .'</code> ## With "piston":http://piston.rubyforge.org:<br/> <code>piston import http://svn.radiantcms.org/radiant/trunk/radiant/</code> # <code>svn commit -m"Fixing project to specific Radiant version."</code>
