'''job.py must be executed by a "zopectl run" command and, as single arg, must get a string with the following format: :::[:]. is the userName of the Zope administrator for this instance. is the path, within Zope, to the Plone Site object (if not at the root of the Zope hierarchy, use '/' as folder separator); leave blank if using appy.gen > 0.8 is the name of the Appy application. If it begins with "path=", it does not represent an Appy application, but the path, within , to any Zope object (use '/' as folder separator); leave blank if using appy.gen > 0.8; is the name of the method to call on the tool in this Appy application, or the method to call on the arbitrary Zope object if previous param starts with "path=". (optional) are the arguments to give to this method (only strings are supported). Several arguments must be separated by '*'. Note that you can also specify several commands, separated with semicolons (";"). This scripts performs a single commit after all commands have been executed.
