Hi guys, We've just (almost certainly) chosen Pylons for a quick-and-dirty web application project. There are just a few outstanding things that we need to do, which I'm not sure how to approach. Speed is of the essence here, so having examples or documentation would be a huge help. I also don't have much time for trial-and-error, so opinionated responses highly appreciated.
1. We need a fairly heavily AJAXified UI. Is Prototype and the Railsish web helpers the best way to go? I'm a little wary of code generation in general and Prototype in particular, but I'm willing to ignore my instincts if this is the way people tend to do things. I haven't seen many tutorials or examples of alternative approaches, e.g. jQuery or MochiKit. The front page of pylonshq.com suggests other toolkits are supported, but I can't find any more resources. :-/ 2. Specifically, we need an auto-complete widget. I see Script.aculo.us has one of those, but no corresponding web helper. How easy would it be to hand-code the use of such a widget? Should I look for other frameworks instead? In fact, we need something even more dynamic: the user should use an auto-complete select box to find items and then press Enter or click a button to add it to a dynamically growing list, i.e. letting this act as a dynamic, auto-complete multi-select widget. 3. Are there any example applications that demonstrate the use of AuthKit (with a custom, in-the-app login form, and sensible permission/role/user handling and user storage)? I've seen the AuthKit tutorial, but it uses fairly frivolous examples. Maybe more questions later... but so far, what we've seen and tested of Pylons has been great. :) Martin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
