[web2py] Re: Hassle-Free Application Hosting?
Hi all, I'm the co-founder and CEO of DotCloud. We're eager to make it as easy as possible to deploy web2py on our service! I'd like to offer 2 things: 1. Beta invites for anyone on this group who is interested. Just mention the web2py mailing list in our registration form (http:// dotcloud.com) 2. All the help you need putting together a dotcloud on web2py tutorial. If you're interested in participating, let me know and we'll get started. As for requirements.txt and wsgi.py, it's pretty straightforward - you'll find more information in the docs [1] but I'll be happy to elaborate privately if needed. I hope this can be helpful to the web2py community.

Good news, everyone! According to recent testing, web2py runs on DotCloud like a charm. I've put up a little tutorial: http://docs.dotcloud.com/static/tutorials/web2py/ It's still very basic and certainly needs to be refined, but I hope it's sufficient to get started.

Is there a demand for a Heroku-like service in the web2py community? If there was a critical mass, I wonder if someone/firm could be convinced to build out this type of offering.

I sent a message to some services that are still in private beta, they asnswered that they are going to support web2py. http://stable.io/ http://stable.io/http://www.ep.io/ http://www.ep.io/I am in contact with the owners of nodegrid to include web2py deployment, would be great to push my mercurial repository directly into a running app. -- Bruno Rocha http://about.me/rochacbruno/bio
