 Install Handler
=================

The :term:`install handler` is responsible for initial setup of a new
:term:`app` install.

The installer runs interactively via command line, prompting the user
for various config settings etc.  If all goes well the :term:`app dir`
is created with basic config files, and tables are created in the
:term:`app database`.

The base class and default install handler is
:class:`wuttjamaican.install.InstallHandler`.

The :term:`app handler` is responsible for creating the install
handler via
:meth:`~wuttjamaican.app.AppHandler.get_install_handler()`::

   app = config.get_app()
   install = app.get_install_handler()
