[issue1034] [patch] Add 2to3 support for displaying warnings as Python comments
New submission from Adrian Holovaty: Per a Python-3000 mailing list discussion here -- http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-3000/2007-August/009835.html -- I have implemented an addition to the 2to3 utility that enables warnings to be output as comments in Python source code instead of being logged to stdout.

ANN: Python interface to Microsoft Outlook Web Access
Hi all, Because I telecommute, I'm limited to using my company's webmail interface, Microsoft Outlook Web Access, rather than having direct POP or IMAP access to e-mail. This isn't ideal, for several reasons: * Outlook Web Access has a horrendous user interface in any browser other than Internet Explorer. (And I'm on Linux, so I can't use Internet Explorer.) It's hard to search, the icons are unintuitive, it encourages top-posting and doesn't have the basic benefits of a desktop e-mail app, such as spell-checking and address auto-completion. * Using webmail forces me to keep a browser window/tab open to check messages. And Outlook Web Access doesn't auto-refresh, so I have to remember to click Inbox every so often to get the latest messages. This is a huge disruption. * It's just simpler and more efficient to have all my e-mail in one place. So I figured I'd do a bit of programming to make my life easier. The result: weboutlook, a Python library that screen-scrapes Outlook Web Access. It can: * Log into a Microsoft Outlook Web Access account on a given server with a given username and password. * Retrieve all e-mail IDs from the first page of your Inbox. * Retrieve all e-mail IDs from the first page of any folder in your webmail (such as Sent Items). * Retrieve the full, raw source of the e-mail with a given ID. * Delete an e-mail with a given ID (technically, move it to the Deleted Items folder). Also, I've included a Python implementation of a POP server that provides a POP interface to the scraper. This means I can point my desktop e-mail client at the script, my e-mail client will think it's a normal POP server, and my e-mails will download nicely into my desktop app, with the screen-scraper running silently behind the scenes. I put this together in my free time, and it's been working nicely for a week, so I'm open-sourcing it for other poor souls who've been sentenced to use Outlook Web Access. I presented this at yesterday's Chicago Python Users Group meeting and was surprised to see that, even in a group of only 30 people, 5 or 6 people used Outlook Web Access through their company. I hope somebody finds this useful. http://www.holovaty.com/code/weboutlook/ Please send comments and improvements to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Adrian -- Adrian Holovaty holovaty.com | djangoproject.com | chicagocrime.org -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Being unjust
Fuzzyman wrote: web.py has the great advantage that (allegedly) you can migrate apps from CGI to FastCGI, mod_python, WSGI. This isn't an advantage of web.py over other frameworks. You can do the same thing with Django, because it has a WSGI backend; people run Django with mod_python, FastCGI, etc. I believe the same flexibility applies to TurboGears. There are a few fundamental philosophy differences in web apps which makes it a bit of a religious war. This means getting something into the standard library is likely to be the cause of intractable discussions. *sigh* As much as I'd like to see the core bits of Django (which wouldn't require a database or include other fancy high-level features) included in the standard library, I do think it'd devolve into a religious war inevitably. A better goal, I think, would be to add some WSGI code to the standard library -- for instance, code that runs a development server for a WSGI-compliant framework, etc. Perhaps wsgiref: http://svn.eby-sarna.com/wsgiref/ Just my two cents, Adrian -- Adrian Holovaty holovaty.com | chicagocrime.org | djangoproject.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Help me in this please--is Python the answer?
Ray wrote: Does the comparison between dynamic and static language carry over to comparison between Django and Turbogear too? Is this what is meant by Turbogear is much more flexible than Django? Nah, the difference is more than Django is a complete product whereas TurboGears is a collection of unrelated parts glued together.

Re: Help me in this please--is Python the answer?
Ray wrote: Yes, but this is more of a web application though--something that I've never developed in Python before, so... I'll be evaluating Django shortly--let me see how it compares to Tomcat. Performance is one of the key features of Django. For example, I'm using Django at washingtonpost.com for the U.S. Congress Votes Database, which has more than 4 million records and is linked-to from the washingtonpost.com home page whenever there's a key congressional vote. (http://projects.washingtonpost.com/congress/) The server doesn't break a sweat, thanks to Django's very-convenient-and-powerful cache system: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/cache/ Also, the developers at grono.net, a Polish social networking site with more than half a million users, have converted various bits of their Java code to Python/Django. They've found that Django is not only much quicker (and more fun) to develop in, it's also *faster* than Java and requires less hardware. E-mail me personally if you want their contact information for direct testimonials; we'll be publishing some more testimonials publically as we get closer to Django 1.0. I would never use TurboGears or Ruby on Rails over Django for any performance-intensive Web app. In my opinion, both frameworks make some poor design decisions regarding the importance of performance.

ANN: Django 0.91 released
We're pleased to announce Django 0.91, the result of a month and a half of feature additions, bug fixes, usability changes and other improvements to the Django Web framework. http://www.djangoproject.com/ There are literally hundreds of improvements since version 0.90 -- but some of the most notable are: * Merged the new-admin branch, which heavily refactored the way the admin works, to make it more extensible. * Changed passwords to be stored with a salt, and with a tighter (and swappable) encryption algorithm. http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2005/nov/20/passwordchange/ * URLconfs no longer require named groups; you can use simple parentheses. http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2005/nov/28/urls/ * Changed the default project layout to add a manage.py utility, which avoids frustration with DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE. * Added a gorgeous template-debugging error page in the case of template syntax errors. http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2005/nov/23/template_errors/ * Added an {% include %} template tag. http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/templates/#include * Added a framework for template context processors. http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/templates_python/#subclassing-context-djangocontext * Improved the e-mail library to prevent header injections. http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/email/#preventing-header-injection * Added OR lookups to the database API. http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2005/nov/30/or/ * Made the template system scoped to the parser instead of the template module. Also changed the way tags/filters are registered and added support for multiple arguments to the {% load %} tag. In addition to the many, many changes, we've reworked the tutorial to simplify things -- namely using the new manage.py utility instead of futzing with the Python path and environment variables. http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/tutorial1/ Many thanks to all the great people who've contributed to this project. You can check them out in the AUTHORS file: http://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/AUTHORS About Django Django is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development and clean, pragmatic design. It lets you write high-quality Web apps very quickly, with very little code. It gives you: * An object-relational mapper, which currently works with PostgreSQL, MySQL and SQLite. (Oracle and MS-SQL support are coming.) This lets you query databases in Python; there's no need to write SQL if you don't want to. * A template system. * A beautiful, production-ready admin interface -- for free. * Full internationalization (i18n) support. * A super-cool community! * An RSS/Atom-producing framework. * Tons of other niceties, such as generic views (which abstract common Web-development patterns), based on several years' worth of solving Real Problems in the Real World.

Re: RoR like (was : SPE 0.8.1.b Python IDE...)
bruno at modulix wrote: Adrian, what you describe here is *exactly* what I call no Ajax support: you have to handle the whole thing manually, the framework doesn't provide anything by itself. Would you say the CGI module offers support for templating, data persistance and Ajax as well ?-) Hey Bruno, Sorry for the misunderstanding. Here's the Django code I use on the Ajax bit of the chicagocrime.org Find your District page (http://www.chicagocrime.org/districts/). See the Guess district button on that page. def rpc_guess_district(request, longitude, latitude): try: b = beats.guess_by_coordinates(float(longitude), float(latitude)) except beats.BeatDoesNotExist: return HttpResponse(Looks like you're not centered on a point in Chicago. + \ Please move the map to Chicago and try again.) return HttpResponse(You're centered on %s % b.get_name_and_district()) My point is, you don't need a huge serialization framework to do Ajax easily. As long as a server can return snippets of code (or even plain text), you can do it. These pages work the same way: http://www.chicagocrime.org/map/ http://www.chicagocrime.org/wards/ http://www.chicagocrime.org/route/ Hope that clears up my point of view, Adrian -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: RoR like (was : SPE 0.8.1.b Python IDE...)
bruno at modulix wrote: RoR is not an IDE, it's a web framework. The closest things in Python are TurboGears (good Ajax/js support via Mochikit), Subway (never tested), and Django (no Ajax support AFAIK). Note that no Ajax support is misleading. Of course you can use Ajax with Django, just as you can use it with *any* Web framework. That's because Ajax is a browser-side technology (JavaScript), not a server-side technology (Python). Django is just as capable of producing JavaScript as it is of producing (X)HTML or whatever else. Hope that clears things up!

ANN: Greasemonkey compiler
Greasemonkey (http://greasemonkey.mozdev.org/) is a Mozilla Firefox extension that allows you to write scripts, in JavaScript, that alter specific Web pages. I've written a compiler for these scripts. It's a Python module that takes a user script as input and creates a full-fledged Firefox extension. This is useful if you're a script developer and want to distribute your work to people without having to ask them to install Greasemonkey. It can also be a helpful starting point if you want to write a more advanced Firefox extension.
