heya, We need to make a web-frontend for listing and adding items to a YSM (Yahoo Search Marketing) account. These would include things like new sub-accounts, new campaigns, keywords etc. You can check/edit these items through a SOAP API. At the moment, I'm using the SUDS library to manage these (https://fedorahosted.org/suds/)
I was going to use Django simply for the URL-routing and templating system (that and I'm more comfortable in Python than say, PHP), and eschew the model layer. So it's just be a series of views/forms that listed/manipulated SOAP calls. However, I was wondering, is it still possible to use the model layer, since the "model" is something accessed through SOAP queries, rather than something on a local database. I guess there's a lot of issues, I'm not sure if any of Django's introspection or model code would work, performance/latency etc., although I haven't really thought about it a lot. Is there any way to get it to work? Or would it be suitable to do a periodic dump from the SOAP api into a database, and use that as the model? I suppose then there might be issues of it getting out of sync, or other people editing the YSM account. Suggestions?
