NAME

       roundup-demo  -  create  a  roundup  "demo"  tracker and launch its web
       interface

SYNOPSIS

       roundup-demo [backend [nuke]]

OPTIONS

       nuke   Create a fresh demo tracker (deleting the existing one if  any).
              If  the  additional  backend argument is specified, the new demo
              tracker will use the backend named (one of  "anydbm",  "sqlite",
              "metakit",  "mysql"  or "postgresql"; subject to availability on
              your system).

DESCRIPTION

       This command creates a fresh demo tracker for you to  experiment  with.
       The  email  features of Roundup will be turned off (so the nosy feature
       won't send email). It does this by removing the nosyreaction.py  module
       from the demo tracker's detectors directory.

       If   you  wish,  you  may  modify  the  demo  tracker  by  editing  its
       configuration files and HTML templates. See  the  customisation  manual
       for information about how to do that.

       Once you've fiddled with the demo tracker, you may use it as a template
       for creating your real, live  tracker.  Simply  run  the  roundup-admin
       command  to  install  the  tracker  from  inside  the demo tracker home
       directory,  and  it  will  be  listed  as  an  available  template  for
       installation. No data will be copied over.
