Thanks for all that you share guys. I would like to ask for a recommendation.
I have a web interface made with web2py, this interface manage a web application firewall (nginx and modsecurity). It does commands and file modifications in the system to manage properly the WAF, the database is SQLite. I don't use sqlform.grid, most of the things in the view are made with pure JavaScript and Html, and all the commands to the system are with subprocess. Works pretty fast and without any issue. My question is if py4web is ok to do this tasks too, like editing files in system, executing commands and task more oriented to the system and not to a db. Now I have to a small adpatation to my app because modsecurity has a new version and they changed some things, and I was thinking that maybe I can port all to py4web and have a fresh new start, but I'm not sure..., I love web2py and now is easy to me to do things with him. Should I stay in web2py? Or I should start using py4web for this kind of project? Cheers! Chris.
