I wrote my initial response at like 12am, so sorry it was so terse. I wanted to thank Mark for bringing this issue up to the ML, and I will try to do that more successfully in the future. I realize that the change I made effects the entire TG dispatch, and that really needs to be discussed. This change is really forward-looking. I am hoping that there will be a miriad of tools for TG that can be plugged into an existing application, and I expect these tools to use TW. TW is such a powerful technology, and I would hope that making it as easy as possible to use would be beneficial. I hope this explains my POV a little better.
Oh, and if I get to vote: +1 :-) cheers. -chris On Jan 15, 1:50 am, Michael Brickenstein <brickenst...@mfo.de> wrote: > Hi Chris! > > It easy to suggest something (without having the time to help). > But I think, this is related to some crucial design problem (at least > in the old version dbsprockets). > > You remember all the problems, we had with having a version of > dbmechanic for Pylons/TG1/TG2 and to fix bugs in all of them... > Essentially, I think Catwalk2 should be its own WSGI app. > It shouldn't need to be it's own framework like RUM, but maybe just be > a TG2 app, mountable in other TG2 apps. > I think, that should solve the problem (and would be a good test, if > TG2 is designed cleanly enough to support that). > > Michael > > On 15 Jan., 07:48, percious <ch...@percious.com> wrote: > > > Just so you guys know, this change allows people with mako, jinja, or > > chameleon.genshi default_templates to use "tg components" like > > tgext.admin and Catwalk.
