Hi, I intend to use Django for a project that involves presenting some information comming from an external system.
In this particular case, I need to hit a URL that will give me back some XML. I need to process the XML and put it in data structures that I want to present with Django. Since the fetching and processing of XML can take more than a few seconds, I don't want to have to do it every time a page is fetched on the Django website. I would like to be able to check the external XML every minute or so and update my data structures at that moment. What would be the "canonical" approach to do this kind of thing in Django? Are threads safe to use with Django or can they present problems? Thanks, Paul PS: I should note that I am a beginner with Django, in case anyone wonders. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
