Hi. 

In general, for GSoC, I want to look at the project ideas, the org profile, 
and such over the next couple of weeks.
I try and make the Org page the starting point. 

Kind Regards,
Carlton

Re: Google Summer of Code 2019

2019-02-16 Thread Aleksi Häkli

Just my 2 cents or ramblings on the topic of GSoC and deployment:

Most Django deployments we do are executed by running containers from 
custom built Docker images from private repositories.

They are mostly run with either

- Docker Compose on small scale, or
- Heroku, Kubernetes or other container orchestrator on larger scale.

The Docker images and their packaging are starting to look quite similar 
these days with their 12-factor setups and service oriented approaches.

The baseline package is usually just a Python template that runs Django 
installation with all the checks, static file compilation, and whatnot at 
the end of the image build. 

Then there is, usually, a shell startup script, that is run as an 
entrypoint, which runs migrate and other state related commands on 
container startup and execs the Django application as configured.

The Docker images we build ideally support running multimode with the 

- web server container running Gunicorn, uwsgi, or a similar HTTP 
application server, and 
- the background worker container running a task executor like Celery or 
Django Q

and the container orchestrator just supplying the command (one can think of 
this as the "mode") to run in.

This is all and good, and Django supports a runner setup like this 
beautifully without any gimmicks with Docker images and containers. 

Well, you have to figure out the necessary build and startup commands and 
so forth, but there are good online resources for figuring out those things 
nowadays.

Progressing to the point I am trying to bring up, I think that 
containerization instructions with some good examples including stuff like 

- Docker image packaging for a basic Django web server using FOSS 
components,
- configuration and settings examples in a Docker build and deployment 
setup for Django,
- multimode container examples for running in web server or web worker role,
- sane defaults for security hardening and checkups, and
- defining startup scripts for running tasks like migrations before 
application execution

could be quite invaluable in the Django deployment documentation at e.g. 
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/deployment/

The deployments are starting to look so similar these days that supplying 
good stock examples for packaging a basic web server and web worker image 
and running it as a container could be a good idea that could save 
tremendous amounts of time for people building their first or second 
deployments. Best practices never hurt anybody either.

Of course e.g. many of the Cookiecutter templates available have examples 
for Docker packaging, but none of the ones I have seen discuss the process 
in an easily accessible format that ties in well with Django development 
and documentation. They are usually more expert oriented and just supply 
some opinionated configuration examples that might or might not work or be 
secure or up-to-date. 

I imagine at least including some Docker packaging and workload 
containerization components in the GSoC proposition could be helpful. 
Packaging could align with the GSoC motives as e.g. Kubernetes enablement 
is well in line with modern IaaS hosting interests.

A DevOps guy

I was looking into how ansible is used to automate the deployment procedure 
for django, and it does indeed seem to cover a lot of ground. It seems 
unlikely that I can add anything particularly new to the automation 
process.

Yes in my experience Heroku/Divio/Elastic Beanstalk/other PaaS platforms
already fit the space of a "simple Django deployment". I am also skeptical,
I'd need to see how it fit in the space, what it does differently, and how
it will be maintained long term. I think it's a bit outside the remit of

Re: Google Summer of Code 2019

2019-02-15 Thread Josh Smeaton

If you really think you want to work on a deployment project, you should 
get the requirements together very quickly, so someone on this list can 
sanity check that it's something both feasible and useful.

I have done a **lot** of different deployments, and other than deploying to 
heroku, they have never been the same. I'm rather skeptical that some tool 
can be built for deploying a Django application that didn't already mimic 
an existing tool like Ansible or Salt (or Heroku CLI).

Examples: what application server (gunicorn, uwsgi, mod_wsgi)? What web 
server (nginx, apache, caddy)? What database server, and is it remote or 
local? How are environment variables securely provisioned and deployed? 
Where is static content served from, and do you need S3 keys? How are you 
managing TLS certificates?

Start a new thread on this list when you have an outline for what you want 
to do. At that stage we should be able to tell you if you should proceed 
with a detailed project scope or not. I don't want you to work on a 
detailed project scope and then get knocked back for the idea being 
infeasible. Remember, the project would need to be very useful for Django 
users.

I'd also just like to call out that projects like Django Channels would 
likely be in scope too, provided the current maintainers felt comfortable 
mentoring a student. A quick note about Channels specifically - the current 
maintainers have **just** taken up that mantle, so you should have a 
specific idea in mind if that's what you're interested in, not ask the team 
for ideas.

One good thing we can add is redis support for caching, it's good that
there are libraries out there, it's about time redis is included, because
it's well documented and does all the things memcached does and even more.

Or maybe some async support.

That seems accurate.
In your opinion, would it still be infeasible to provide support for one 
stack to begin with? For example: gunicorn + nginx? And that can ultimately 
lead to support for other configurations.

Re: Google Summer of Code 2019

2019-02-14 Thread Tom Forbes

Out of interest, do the projects for GSOC have to fall within the Django
repository themselves? Could they be an associated project under the Django
umbrella?

I think something that helps with deployment in general could be interesting,
but it definitely does not live inside Django core. However some form of 3rd
party package exploring this is another matter entirely.

Thank you Carlton. I had in mind an idea for providing out-of-the-box

time consuming tasks for us was deployment on a server, mainly due to a 
lack of experience. That's why I figured that an automated system for

Hello Carlton sir,
I have worked on Django as a part of a project and wished to ask if the 
organization is still accepting proposals for GSoC 2019.

2019-02-04 Thread Carlton Gibson

And thank you Tim, yes, exactly what I need. 

To all: 

I will put in the org application today. We'll then see about the 
proposals. 

The main thing is that we need to know who you are, and have confidence in 
you in order to commit to the project with you. 
For people to mentor you is a big commitment of time and energy. You need 
to demonstrate that will be well invested. 

The way to do that is to get involved and show us who you are over the next 
few months. 
Help reproduce bugs, review patches, create patches etc. 
It doesn't take much before you're visible. (Really!) 

The best way (also) to come up with project ideas is to see where there are 
issues already. 
(Much better than us providing a list.) So again, be involved. 

If you start now, there's still lots of time, so I'm hoping. 

Kind Regards,

Carlton

It's a private wiki that only Django team members like Carlton can access. 
It contains the information for Django to apply for GSoC.

Hey Parth, 

Yes, you're right: 

> Students can register and submit their applications to mentor 
organizations. All proposals must be submitted by April 9, 2019 20:00 
(CEST).

There's time. I was thinking tomorrow was the full proposal deadline. 
(That's my lack of familiarity with it.) 

I will fill do the the Organisation application today. The programme seems 
a good opportunity. 

Kind Regards,

Carlton

Hey, I am really enthusiastic for doing GSoC with Django, I had been 
working for a few months to get myself familiar with the code base. I have 
quite a few unpolished ideas in my mind for projects like the one posted 
here 

.

Though I'm unable to understand why Django is not ready to participate in 
GSoC this year?

Also, I would like to point out what *Carlton* said in his post 

.

   - I don't think it is justified to expect mind-blowing project proposal 
   this early. As per the GSoC's timeline, the application deadline is April 9 
   which is like two months for now.
   - Even the discussions of ideas according to Google begins from 20 days 
   from now.
   - There is also no ideas page for Django for 2019, to which students can 
   refer.
   - More importantly, as a student, I think many students will be 
   genuinely interested to take up a few good projects with Django.

 We haven't had any high quality student applications that we could

 Perhaps it's partly a function of a poor ideas page (
 https://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/SummerOfCode2018). Perhaps we 
 don't do a great job of publicizing our involvement and attracting high

Yes. GSoC wasn't at all on my radar before your post here Tim. 

We've had a few "hello" posts but no even semi-concrete proposals from 
students. (Equally we don't have a list ready to go.) 

I had a look at the process. It seems a moderate commitment, so, for me, I 
think I'd want to be familiar with applicants before we took that on. i.e. 
We need say to students to get involved months before. 
I'll think about messaging for that for next year because GSoC seems good

SO unless someone is going to blow us away with an outline of a proposal 
TOMORROW, we'll have to pass this year. (Deadline being Tuesday.)

As of now, I haven't seen any existing Django contributors who are planning 
to propose a project, therefore I don't think it's worthwhile for the DSF 
to apply for this summer. The decision to apply on behalf of the DSF is up 
to Carlton, Mariusz, or another potential mentor.

Re: Google Summer of Code 2019

2019-01-29 Thread Adam Johnson

Small point: a cross-DB JSONField could also serve as a cross-DB
ArrayField, since JSON can store arrays. I don't believe MySQL or SQLite
have "array" types, so to build a cross-DB ArrayField you'd emulate them
with JSON plus a restriction to just storing arrays, which comes back to
building a cross-DB JSONField.

Re: Google Summer of Code 2019

2019-01-29 Thread Carlton Gibson

Hi Shrikrishna,

Not so much a ticket… See the thread I linked. There’s a lot of info there.

The first step (I think) is a proof-of-concept JSONField for SQLite — we have
the other three DBs.

So taking a look at the implementation of the existing fields and SQLite’s API
for the JSON extension, should lead you to be able to put together the first
draft of some thoughts as to how we’d go forward.

Have a rummage in `contrib.postgres` (and the Oracle and MySQL examples). How
do the equivalent lookups look in SQLite? (HasKey, ContainedBy, and so on.) Any
blockers?

A rough breakdown here would be a good starting point.

>From there, there are lots of people here who know a lot about this stuff
>(more that me).

I’m wondering about Florian’s point about scope. I don’t know much about GSoC,
so I don’t know what they’d require.
(The other wish-list item for me is a cross-DB ArrayField, but I haven’t even
begun to look what the support is like there, if any at all.)

Kind Regards,

Carlton

Maybe, we could append this idea with the 'Improve less popular database 
backend idea' on the wiki 

 page 
as that project is also not that big for a GSoC project but the purpose of 
both projects seems quite similar to me. So I guess we could have a good 
GSoC project by combining both the idea?

Not sure if GSOC changed that much, but it seems like somewhat small for a

The only one of those 3 that would be GSOC doable (IMO) would be the query

Re: Google Summer of Code 2019

2019-01-19 Thread akki

Hi

One of the most difficult things for me while preparing my GSoC proposal 
was getting myself acquainted to Django's humungous code base.
To prepare a proposal one should know what modules they would need to 
modify & what part of the code they will need to work with. To do that one 
should *at least* know what is the role of a particular module/file in the 
big picture of Django's code. For me, even though I had drilled down that I 
had to work just with django/db, I still had the task of figuring out the 
working of *so* many modules. There were *models.options, models.sql.query, 
models.sql.compiler, migrations.autodetector, migrations.loader, 
migrations.optimizer*, *backends.features*, *backends.introspection*, 
*backends.operations*, *backends.schema* and many more which were somehow 
connected to each other & doing something but I had no easy way to know 
what.
I think putting an individual README to places like django/core/ 
, django/db/models 
/, etc. with 
even a 1-2 line description of what purpose each of the folder/file (or at 
least the convoluted ones) in that folder serve might be great help to 
newbie programmers - just not for GSoC but any new contributor.
I understand that the work required to make this happen might be quite big 
and complex (maybe big enough to make it a GSoC project in itself, but 
Google doesn't accept purely documentation projects for GSoC IIRC) but 
might be achievable if merged in parts.

@Parth I am Django's GSoC fellow for 2016. If there is any way I could help 
you, feel free to reach me out 
. For other 
fellows, you can search for Django in the archives of GSoC's website 
.
Also, a quick way to ask questions about contributing to Django from the 
community is the IRC channel #django-dev

Google Summer of Code 2019

2019-01-16 Thread PARTH PATIL

Hey Parth here. I am genuinely interested in doing a project with django as 
student in gsoc 2019. I have been working hard since past few months to get 
myself familiar with the famework. I had few project ideas in mind, but I'm 
confused about the intricacies and needed some help. Also i haven't contributed 
much yet, it would be very helpful if anyone can give me proper channel from 
where i can seek help or discuss with other people. Also where can i find the 
contact of people who have already done a gsoc project with django.

P.S.:- I have tried posting on groups and messaging few people, but haven't 
gone far with that

Google Summer of Code 2019

2019-01-16 Thread Tim Graham

Org applications for Google's Summer of Code are now open (deadline
February 6). Do you think the Django Software Foundation should participate?

We haven't had any high quality student applications that we could accept
for the past two years.

Perhaps it's partly a function of a poor ideas page
(https://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/SummerOfCode2018). Perhaps we don't do
a great job of publicizing our involvement and attracting high quality
students. Perhaps it's because the student payment isn't all that much
(+/-$6000 USD, depending on student's country)* for the amount of work
involved (also, students have to put in a lot of work up front in their
application, with no guarantee of being accepted into the program).

If you have any ideas about mentoring or suggesting a project, or if you're
serious about being a student (you should start contributing to Django now
if you don't already), please share.
