Re: Admin Backend for Pyramid
Hi! There are a lot of frameworks. RUM is a project by Alberto Valverde and me. https://bitbucket.org/albertov/rum/wiki/Home It might not be the simplest and not built on the latest tech., but it features a lot of features and a lot of flexibility. Cheers, Michael Am Mittwoch, 23.

I am a huge Django fan, having created about two dozen projects with it. But right now I'm in the process of looking at other python web frameworks. To me Pyramid seems like a framework where some really smart people created something having great potential. But my real question is: Since I love Django (and the automatic super-configurable admin backend), is there something similar already available (or in progress) for Pyramid? I took a quick look at formalchemy which I don't really like from a users perspective (doubleclicking on list items, no many2many relations, strange users/groups front end interface etc), and did not find anything else on the web yet. If there is no such thing (or do you think that it's not necessary at all)? How do *you* guys implement sensible CRUD interfaces for administrators of a web site? I'd love to read some ideas from you. Martin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups pylons-discuss group.

Re: application deployment question about nginx and pylons

I was under the impression that nginx is easier to setup and faster/lighter weight for things specific to web applications. My experience has been that apache configs don't fit my brain all that well, whereas I found nginx configuration to be fairly straightforward for the most part. That's exactly my point of view. With nginx you can get a performant deployment in reasonable time. It feels like much more made for this job.

Re: Extracting Django forms from Django
deform looks cool. Regarding form libraries: I think approaches like tw.forms are indeed much too magically, if you want to generate just a few forms. However, if you are building a CRUD application, these libraries provide the necessary abstractions. By the way, of course CRUD applications can (if properly implemented) handle objects spread over several tables (just use SA for mapping them to one object and be careful about deleting these objects). Of course you would not do that for just a simple form.

I can't really explain it any better than what you've written here: http://groups.google.com/group/pylons-devel/msg/cab1ce37e61d7b96 Chris McDonough has remedied my FormEncode complaints by making Yet Another Form Library. :)http://docs.repoze.org/deform/ It's still a bit early yet in its life, but its 100% unit tested, and has extensive documentation, which is awesome. I didn't want to question Pylons' commitment to formencode... sorry, if my original message came off that way. I'm sure that for many people formencode/ToscaWidgets or Mike's approach work fine. This is more of a personal preference towards WTForms or Django forms. Unfortunately, WTForms still lacks i18n completely. Thus my attempt at extracting Django's forms. Not sure if Chris has gotten i18n into Deform yet, I know he's working on it though if its not in there already. I've never written a (distributable) python library before, but that is very well explained here (http://guide.python-distribute.org/). What I'm still missing is the translation/i18n part. Formencode allows several different ways (http://formencode.org/ Validator.html#localization-of-error-messages-i18n), Django uses another approach... and I'm somewhat lost now how to proceed.

Re: can any one recommend a good library for generating printable reports for my pylons web app?
We also use reportlab in RUM to generate pdf's with landscape tables of data. No complaints.

Re: redirect_to exception not being processed in controller when a function
Hi David!
Sorry, I just found your message in pylons discuss, when just searched
the list for posts about RUM.
There exists a mailing list for rum, on which I can more easily find
questions:
http://groups.google.com/group/rum-discuss
I try to reproduce the problem.
Thank you very much for the nice words about RUM.
Actually, it's rails scaffolding and django admin work still somewhat
smoother,
but using SA, RUM has a lot of potential:
http://python-rum.org/wiki/AdvancedDataMapping
And of course it has supported inheritance beginning with version
0.1 :-).
Please don't hesitate to ask question about RUM and its customization
on the RUM mailing list.

Hi,
I am trying to incorporate rum into my pylons project. This was the
first time I have tried to incorporate another wsgi app into an
existing pylons app.
Therumdocs state that a way to do this is to create a controller as
a *function*, like so:
def AdminController(environ, start_response):
authorize('admin') # calls redirect_to('login') if not logged in
...
return my_rum_app(environ, start_response)
routes are something like:
map.connect('admin', '/admin', controller='admin')
map.connect('/admin/{url:.*}', controller='admin')
So all /admin.* urls go to this function, AdminController. And it
works fine.
However, when I want to to some authentication, and call redirect_to
(login) before the final call to my_rum_app if not logged in, I
don't get a redirect, but rather an uncaught exception:
HTTPFound: 302 Found content-
type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Length: 0 location: /login/
I figured out a way to avoid this problem, but am wondering if there
is a better way. Here is what I did:
Instead of controller function, I made a standard controller class,
with a single action index. It turns out that for the routes above,
*all* requests go to index() (not sure why!).
class AdminController(BaseController):
def index(self):
authorize('admin')
...
return my_rum_app(request.environ, self.start_response)
This works just fine and redirects work correctly, but am wondering
how to fix up the first solution with controller as a function so that
the redirect exceptions are processed by pylons. Partially, the reason
I would like to know is to increase my understanding of how this whole
thing works!
Thanks,
David
PS: rum, by the way, looks like a dynamite package! Haven't played
with it enough to know everything, but looks like it could easily
function as the admin CRUD interface everybody thinks is so great
about rails...

Re: Rum
Hi! I have read this thread, and it made me a little bit sad, as Alberto and I have invested much energy into RUM. I recognize, that every impression about the project is posted by the best knowledge. Nevertheless, I find the information here rather misleading. So please, let me clarify some things. - performance: I think the current versions are maybe not fast as a Porsche, but fast enough for most purposes. We had some heavy problems until the beginning of this year in tw.rum. These are fixed now. The last performance issues, I had were due to SA/Genshi (when using much data). Moreover, I want do denote, that due to generic functions, it is fully possible to extend our query mechanism for eager loading related objects. This can speed up index views even more. In this way, this demonstrates, that the generic design in RUM is suited to make good use of the underlying excellent SA technology and can be used as way, to avoid performance penalties of abstraction. - bugs: please feel free, to report every bug to our mailing list or trac instance. We take issues very serious. In fact, Alberto and I were the first, who stepped in, when there were heavy security issues in TG2 (in no way a problem *in* RUM), which were reported on our mailing list. This demonstrates, that we take care. Of course, we completely can't avoid bugs, but we do our best, to take issues serious. Personally, I use a RUM instance on a production application with much content, which is edited by real end users (those, who make your phone ring, if something doesn't work). -- What is still missing are some nice Ajax widgets. Anyways, meanwhile we have plenty of features: Come in and explore!

I think, the Pylons community has a very good understanding, that there can exist different components for the same purpose with their own advantages.
