Currently, there is no documentation for django-threaded-multihost in
the django-threaded-multihost code [1].
In the Satchmo documentation, django-threaded-multihost gets a brief
mention in the requirements documentation which simply says [2]:
"""To support multi store configurations"""
I see that if SATCHMO_SETTINGS = {'MULTISHOP': True}, then a monkey
patch for Site.objects.get_current() is applied (which says it
'Patched Django for multihost awareness.').
So we have 'multihost', 'MULTISHOP' and 'multi store'. 'host' and
'store/shop' are two different things right? Is this a documentation
bug/unfortunate naming of a setting?
In another post on this list [3], the OP is trying to host two shops
on the same site, e.g. example.com/shop1/ and example.com/shop2/ but
discovers that the threaded_multihost monkey patch will attempt to
lookup the ``current_site`` in the database by domain and not by
settings.SITE_ID, leading to surprising behavior.
The standard Django supplied shortcut ``Site.objects.get_current()``
is optimized to only hit the db once, for the life of the application
server process by relying on the clearly documented settings.SITE_ID
and caching the result. In threaded_multihost.sites.by_host there's a
whole chain of try/except if/else blocks, which could result in
several queries and, since this is a thread local variable dependent
on each request, this happens every single request.
What does the multihost bit of django-threaded-multihost provide that
using the standard Django sites framework can't?
How would one run multiple stores for the SAME SITE, managed by the
same Django/Satchmo admin interface at all, django-threaded-multihost
or not (e.g. example.com/shop1/ & example.com/shop2/)?
Is this even possible currently?
Any chance the author(s) can shed some light on the intended usage so
we can document this?
Thanks,
John-Scott
