This looks very interesting; I'd be curious to see if this could be
useful for Vudo. I'd like it very much if Vudo could sit on top of a
more general framework (not just the Zope 3 libraries).
Early on, the idea was that this could be Grok, but it quickly turned
out that Grok makes too many assumptions for our use.
I recently pasted a basic Pylons application and it gives you something
that I think would be attractive in a Zope/Vudo/Bfg-based setup: A
canonical directory structure, e.g.
./templates
./routers
./config
etc. (can't remember the details)
Sure. I think one of us (maybe Paul?) signed up to write a PasteScript template
to lay out a directory structure something like this.
We don't currently provide an easy way to serve out a static directory full of
content. We'd need to add that (or decide not to add it in favor of letting a
separate "resource" server serve the static stuff).
Perhaps this could benefit the following scenario:
-- Set me up with a new Zope/Vudo/Bfg-application and give me some
starting points.
If Bfg can provide the lower layer, then I think Vudo will be great for
providing the higher layers, e.g.
-- skinning
-- content types and widgets
-- authoring
-- admin
Sounds good to me.
The plans are to keep BFG mostly policy-agnostic save for
the very basics (graph traversal, a default templating language, and a calling
and response convention for views).
I had planned to create another package named repoze.lemonade which:
- Wired in ZODB
- Defined base classes for folderish and leafish types.
- Had an object add/remove/move event model.
- Did indexing of content.
It sounds like Vudo could either build on top of that or just *be* that. It
might be better to continue layering stuff, I suppose, without going "straight
to the content management layer". Would it be appropriate for Vudo to build on
something like that?
What would Vudo need out of a framework?
