Creating a New Site

You can create a new site by running the command, punch setup. Setup command accepts a path of a directory to create the site. It will create the directory if it doesn't already exist.

	punch setup mysite

In the above example, site will be created in a directory named mysite relative to the current path. If you don't specify a path, new site will be created inside the current directory.

You can also specify a boilerplate to use when creating the site. Boilerplates are bascially Punch site structures which can be used a base for a new site. Punch will copy the structure of given boilerplate to new site. Path of the boilerplate can be specified as --template (or -t). You can download any of publicly available boilerplates or use one of your own.

	punch setup mysite -t ~/resources/boilerplates/backfist 

This will create a new site using the boilerplate available at ~/resources/boilerplates/backfist.
