Re: Python simple web development
Until I'm an experience Python coder, I'm sticking with built-in
packages only. My simple CGI is:
#!/usr/bin/env python
# this simple CGI responds to a GET or a POST
# send anything you want to this and it will parrot it back.
# a line that starts with #2 is the old-style code you should use that
works
# with versions less than Python 2.6. I'm using 2.6.2 and am trying to
use
# code that works with Python 3.x and up.
import cgi ## so that I can be a web server CGI
import os ## only purpose is for getting the CGI client values like IP
and URL
def main():
# create the output variable and then add stuff to it that gets
returned
cgiResponseData = 'stuff from the client browser connection:\n'
# so that there is something to return, go through the CGI client
data
#2 for cgiKey in os.environ.keys():
for cgiKey in list(os.environ.keys()):
# for each client data value, add a line to the output
cgiResponseData = cgiResponseData + \
str(cgiKey) + ' = ' + os.environ[cgiKey] + '\n'
# this says give me a list of all the user inputs posted to the cgi
formPostData = cgi.FieldStorage()
cgiResponseData = cgiResponseData + '\n\nstuff from the URL POST
or GET:\n'
# cycle through those inputs and output them right back
#2 for keyValue in formPostData:
for keyValue in list(formPostData):
cgiResponseData = cgiResponseData + \
str(keyValue) + ' = ' + formPostData[keyValue].value + '\n'
#2 print 'Content-type: text/html'
#2 print
#2 print cgiResponseData
print('Content-type: text/html')
print('')
print(cgiResponseData)
main()

It's tutorial is very brief, and (if memory serves) webpy didn't even have any docs at all for a while. As Thomas suggests, maybe have a look at Werkzeug http://werkzeug.pocoo.org/ . They've got substantial docs (which look quite good) and even a nifty screencast. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Python simple web development
What about Werkzeug? I like its simplicity (well, basically everything I need are WSGI request/response objects :) + some templating library).

But complexity typically brings in an extra overhead that the OP might not need. I'm using turbogears for a project but for other simple things I don't, because the all the super powerful infrastructure of turbogears is just not necessary and slows things down without a reason. So I would recommend the OP against using either django or turbogears if the project is really small and will stay small in the future. This last point is hard to guess in advance though :) Cheers, Daniel > Have a read of the first few chapters of the Django book... > > http://www.djangobook.com/ -- Psss, psss, put it down! - http://www.cafepress.com/putitdown -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Python simple web development
I just started with web2py (http://www.web2py.com/) for an internal- use-only app that doesn't need to be very pretty. Been using it for about a week and after re-watching the tutorial, I've decided that I'm making things way too complicated. So today I'm going to replace a lot of my code with some built-ins.
