Starting to port CobblerWeb to django (as is) would be how I'd start to do it -- I think we'd find out along the way what the roadblocks would be and where the framework would allow us to clean up things that are already there. There would be some things we'd have to get to eventually -- like making sure the auth modules still work without (much) reconfiguration. Once that was done we could look for ways to improve it. All the code is in CobblerWeb.py (cobbler/web) and webui_templates/*.tmpl presently though it need not be a 1:1 port The main thing is we're going to be using Cobbler's XMLRPC for the model, not so much the database. If cobbler does have a database, it will be beneath cobblerd so the Web app won't have to know about it. This essentially should be a seperate package just using the Cobbler XMLRPC api. We would not be porting anything served by /cblr/svc, just cobbler/web URLs as well, so no reason to worry about those. They are unauthenticated and meant for machines, not humans. --Michael _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
