Hello fellow Django users! I've been wanting to set up gitosis on a server for a while now. I think a new Django app might make this easier for the end users. The people that'd access the git repos I want to host could simply put their public SSH key in their Django-powered user profile, the new app lets gitosis know, and away they go.
The only issue is that gitosis expects me to build configuration files manually, adding users by hand. It'd be fairly straightforward to get a django-gitosis app to streamline this for me. I'm mostly interested in getting feedback for my ideas. If someone is interested, and would like to contribute to my little app, that'd be great too. I haven't dove into the gitosis code much, but it is written in Python. At some point gitosis parses the config options and makes them available via a Python interface. The first way to get a django-gitosis to handle the configuration on the fly would be to replace the code that parses the text file, and make it code that parses a Django model, but returns the same type of information to the file. I bet this method is more trouble than it's worth. The next method is to modify the config files directly. I like this solution better because it's the simplest one. Simple usually means "less likely to break in the future", which is good. I do believe that gitosis uses a Python module to read from and write to its config files, and I can use the same thing. What method would you use, and why? Thanks for the input!
