Overview

ContentZip: A generic Content zip package

Intent

Automates the installation of arbitrary content such as static html, etc for a document root. The intent is to append to an existing document root directory where a zip package can easily be extracted to. It is important to not add to this directory in an absolute sense since we would not want to intrusively delete any data that could be shared by other deployment schemes (a shared docRoot for example).

Problem

Often content needs to be deployed and coordinated with an application deployment. For example, dynamic content is to be provided by an application server while static data also needs to be versioned, packaged, and deployed to some location in support of the application. This package could be deployed to an Apache httpd server or perhaps the application server itself depending on the environment and/or business requirements.
