Re: Is Django suitable for this purpose?

2015-01-22 Thread Collin Anderson 
Hi,

As others have mentioned, it's totally possible. Regardless of using Django 
or not, the integration could easily be the hardest part, and that's where 
the "up to a minute delay" could come in.

Actually, OP should expect impartial advice on suitability, as list
membership does not automatically mean devout follower.

+1, although I would argue that there are already many hosted appointment
booking systems out there, you should probably use one of those services
instead. To make the two systems work, either make use of their webhooks,
or if they don't have any, then write a connector for them.

I'm not sure what kind of answers you expect by asking if django is the
best tool on a django forum...

In any case, of course it is possible to do this in django, it all depends
on you, django is just a framework but you still need to connect the dots

the time lag would only depend on how you code your system and your
resources, django should not be on your way

good luck

Is Django suitable for this purpose?

2015-01-20 Thread Mike Taylor 
I want to have an appointment booking option built into a website for a 
clinic.

The feature needs to integrate with the software that runs their office 
( http://www.atlaschirosys.com/)

In order to be fully useful, it would need to be virtually instantaneous in 
filling the requested appointment spot.  A time lag of more than a couple 
minutes would not be acceptable.

So, is this even possible and is Django the best tool for building it?

Thank you for ANY input.
