-Installation
-------------
-
- git clone http://.../app.sh.git
-
- mkdir /opt/apps
- cd /opt/apps
- ln -s .../app.sh.git/app.sh app.sh
-
-NOTE: The bash completion is not perfect yet.
-
- echo 'source .../app.sh.git/app_completion' >> ~/.bashrc
-
-Or was it `~/.bash_profile`? hmm
-
-TODOs
------
-
-* Support installation-wide settings. Useful for shared environment
- settings etc (PATH).
-
-* Add support for hooks in .app/hooks. Example hooks:
- * Diff config. Save a backup of the config on installtaion.
- * Copy the configuration from the previous installation.
-
-* Support changing current version.
-
-* Document app.sh
- * Concept: config. group, key and value.
- * Scriptable
-
-* init.d support - register the application under /etc/init.d on
- installation. Should probably be a plugin.
-
-* Support -h for all applicable methods to show the help/usage.
-
-* Rename "scripts/" to handlers or something similar. Perhaps just
- remove it entirely.
-
-* Document how the operate method (custom pid-method stuff) can see
- its own output for debugging.

-Directory Hierarchy
--------------------
-
-### Current
-
-App.sh is installed through cloning the git repository and/or
-unpacking a tarball from the git repository. The directory that
-contains the app.sh libraries is known as `$APPSH_HOME`.
-
-App.sh related:
-
- ./ The root of an application set. Known as $APPSH_APPS
- ./app The app script, symlinked from your git clone directory
- ./.app/lib bash libraries used by app.sh and methods
- ./.app/var runtime data
-
-Applications:
-
- ./<name>/<instance>/ - Known as $APPSH_INSTANCE_HOME
- current -> - symlink to the currently installed app
- versions/ - collection with all installed versions
- 1.0/ - A installed version. The zip file is unzipped here.
- root/ - The current directory when executing methods and scripts
- scripts/
- 1.1/
- 2.0/
-
-Creating Apps
--------------
-
-"App bundles" are basically just zip file with a specific layout. It
-has to contain at least a `root/` directory which contains your
-application. It can contain anything. The `current` symlink will point
-to this directory.
-
-The bundle can also contain a special `scripts` directory which
-contains scripts that's run durtion package operations. Only
-`postinstall` is currently supported.
