Re: [Mailman-Developers] [Queries] Related to List Styles in mailman
hi, The advantage of first is that we will gonna have all the styles at a single place and no need to call for the default page from other places as we will gonna do in the second method. Here but we have to apply the constraints on the default entries and not on other entries. On other hand in second point we will have a unify table with same functionality for all the entries but we have to call the default styles which will be at different place.

I will really need to discuss these things. Any new suggestions are also welcome.

Hoping for reply. There are a few different approaches one could take. Currently, you define a list of Python import paths which are used to search for styles (specifically, objects implementing the IStyle interface). These are collected in the style manager and then when a mailing list is created through the create_list() function (in app/lifecycle.py), the style name is looked up and applied to the newly created mailing list. The simplest part of this task would be to query the REST API for the available styles, and provide a selection menu for the style to apply when creating a new mailing list. This really wouldn't be enough for a GSoC though. The next step might be to add a ui for defining new styles. You'd have to work out how to store the style persistently so that it could be used later, and I'm not sure whether that would be best by writing to the database, or just creating a file on disk that can be imported into the style manager. You'd want to handle composition of styles too. All of these keep the basic idea that styles are applied when the mailing list is created, but once created a style is no longer used. We've talked about building a system where styles would be persistently associated with the mailing list so that if you change values in the style, all lists connected to that style would get updated. That would require a pretty extensive reworking of both the style system and mailing lists, so I think it would actually be *too* big for a GSoC.
