The SRTool allows users to substitute an alternate master application
instead of the default "yp" in order to customize their instance to
their organization.
This is done by:
(a) Creating a datasource directory under bin
(b) Defining a "datasource.json" file
(c) Defining 'export SRT_MAIN_APP="<app>"' in "srtool_env.sh"
This environment files are scanned by 'bin/srt', and if such an
alternate master app is found it pre-empts the default 'yp'.
This value is set via the environment because "lib/srtmain/settings.py"
is the file that sets the app (and this the URL) ordering, and it is
processed before any database is attached.
To disable the alternate main app, simply rename its "datasource.json"
file and it will be ignored for the next start.
The sample alternate app "acme" is provided to demonstrate this facility.
Additionally, a development tool 'bin/dev_tools/master_app.sh' has been
added to help switch between master apps, to aid testing.
$ ./stop.sh
$ ./master_app.sh acme
$ ./start.sh
... test ...
$ ./stop.sh
$ ./master_app.sh yp
$ ./start.sh
Other included fixes:
* Fix the ACME JSON files formating
* Remove ACME "_sample" from all but "datasource.json_sample"
* Fix tabs to spaces in "srt"
* Add global contect values to views::managedcontextprocessor so
that other app templates can share them
