Hi all, I am trying to figure out if I can use Django's sites-system in a small experiment I am conducting. Please bear with me, as I am still struggling to fully understand the sites-system. I am using the svn version of Django (currently rev 7106, I believe).
I would like to build a site published on *one* address (e.g. example.com) where users can register for something like a "master account" and several "normal accounts" and get their own little sandbox to handle their data (this would be similar to a site, but it would not have its own domain name; let's call this a "pseudo-domain"). The idea, of course, is to handle data for multiple pseudo-domains in the same database, while still disallowing people from one pseudo-domain access to the data of another pseudo-domain. This would be useful for a whole suite of software-as-a-service deployments; e.g. if I where to offer a service of "Family Accounting" (just a silly example), a family would setup a master account (the "administrator") and several normal accounts, and then they could happily start entering their earnings and spendings, resting assured that no one outside their pseudo-domain would see their accounting status. As far as I can tell, the Django site-system relies on the different sites having different domains, while my requirement seems to indicate that the "site" (or pseudo-domain) should be decided by the logged in user rather than the domain name, so I am a bit pessimistic that I can accomplish what I say above, even though the two use cases seems very similar data-handling-wise; please tell me I am wrong... :-) Also, is there a way to play with the sites-system using runserver? It seems you need to have multiple settings-files (which I guess would be simple using e.g. Apache and a bunch of virtual hosts), but it seems I cannot do that with runserver.
