Python for NetBeans 7.0 required a rewrite. New version is found in their developer plugin repo (you have to manually edit it).

Often overlooked, gedit makes a pretty darn good Django IDE. http://www.micahcarrick.com...

Re: Using Mako with Tornado Web Server

I haven't heard of Mako before but after reading the post and the replies I think I'll give it a try. Thank you for the review.

Hi,

I was playing around with something similar, and I think you might be able to get better performance by using render_context, and creating a context with the current request handler. This way mako will write directly to your request, and not buffer into a string.

Here's my render_template:

def render_template(self, templatename, **kwargs):
mytemplate = self.makolookup.get_template(templatename)
context = Context(self)
try:
#r = mytemplate.render(h=helpers, **kwargs)
mytemplate.render_context(context, **kwargs)
except:
exceptions.html_error_template().render_context(context)
raise

Update: Validators work (see the example in 'demos'), without the need for sessions.

And Matt, see http://github.com/hudora/hu... so you can generate QR codes locally. ^_~

Re: google wave invite or nomination?

ninjacipher — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 22:24:54 -0000

I agree on all counts. I was really excited about Wave when I watched the videos, but at this point I haven't logged in for months. It is a cool concept but until it has a wider user base it's not really that useful to me...

(however the with:public waves are pretty entertaining)

hmmm very interesting. Didn't notice the mongodb session handler in your repo. I'll have to go back and take a look at that. Totally agree about not being the lonely hero. I'm all about using the right tool for the right job, and if someone has done it already I'm happy to not reinvent the wheel. To be honest in my initial searching I couldn't find a session handler out there for mongodb so we just quickly hacked up our own.

As for my opinion about sessions... it really depends on what kind of info your looking to store. If there is anything remotely sensitive you prob want to hold onto it yourself. If you need to persist something for a long period of time then cookies are the way to go. I tend to use a combo of both. To each his own though. :)

Thx for the comments. I'll keep an eye on your repo. Interested to see where you end up with it. I think some of the things your working on will make Tornado a much more approachable option for a lot of developers.

Had been one of the first Wave users back then, and have still some of the you-can-invite-too invites open.

After about six of my friends joined and us doing one wave, we realized it sounded way better on the videos than it was in reality: Very seldom was two or more of us online and logged into Wave the same time. Mostly it has been like emails, which you can comment inline and which are on the same version when you logged in. I believe that only in rare occasions the real-time thing is needed. And then you better make a phone call or chat by Jabber or Google Talk.

The revolution didn't really appear. In the meanwhile, we resorted to emails.

W-Mark Kubacki — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 17:33:51 -0000

Actually that was not my work - I just merged the session part from Milan Cermak's repository. And, you can store session data in files, files in directories, MySQL, Redis, Memcached and MongoDB. Plus the other extras, which are not on topic here. ^_~

It's often better to join forces than be the lonely hero. I hope that with sessions I can get Ian Bicking's FormEncode validators integrated (disclosure: Iam one of FE authors), so we get an leightweight web-app framework similar to TurboGears.

Currently I am stuck by the decision whether to use (in my own web-app) sessions at all or whether to let the clients store everything in cookies, to spare me the overhead of storing and retrieving session data. How do you think about this?

ninjacipher — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 15:04:41 -0000

Sweet! Nice work. Looks like you also did some work on adding session support. Very cool. We did something similar but instead of using memcached we store the sessions in mongodb. Anyway nice work. Love to see how it evolves.

Hi Matt. Some days ago I've integrated Mako templates similarly, but finally forked Tornado and replaced their templating engine completely (along with the uncommon i18n support, which is done by gettext now). See wmark/tornado at Github for more.
