tcar-prepare(1) =============== Name ---- tcar-prepare - Prepare the repository workplace. Synopsis -------- *centos-art.sh prepare /path/to/your/workplace* Description ----------- When you install The CentOS Artwork Repository in your workstation, it only provides the source files and documentation you need to produce final content but no way to produce final content inside the location it was installed. To produce final content using the source files provided by The CentOS Artwork Repository you need to create a directory in your workstation where you can store the files you produce and the configuration files provided by the installed repository. This directory is known as the ``repository workplace'' and you should create it using the *prepare* module of *tcar* script. The *prepare* module creates the workplace in the location you specified as argument in the command-line. Inside the workplace, there is one directory for each visual manifestation The CentOS Project is made of. Each directory inside the workplace might exist to organize other directories or storing final content. The directories storing final content hold one configuration file describing how the final content is produced inside of it. The configuration files inside the workplace are symbolic links to configuration files inside The CentOS Artwork Repository installed in your workstation. The first time you create the workplace using the *prepare* module, it doesn't include images required to brand other images (e.g., The CentOS Symbol and The CentOS Type). This is something you need to do in order for images requiring brand information to be rendered as they are expected. Rendering images related to brands might consume some time but it is something that needs to be done just once, unless variations to brand information be introduced to The CentOS Artwork Repository, in which case it would be required to render them again to propagate the changes introduced to brand information the next time images requiring them be rendered. [[options]] Options ------- The *prepare* module accepts the following options: *--help*:: Print module's documentation. *--version*:: Print module's version.
