For a long term project, I am selecting a python based persistency system:
http://case.lazaridis.com/multi/wiki/Persist At this point, Django's persistency layer seems intresting, but the evaluation uncovered a few weaknesses, most importantly the lack of schema evolution support: http://case.lazaridis.com/multi/wiki/DjangoProductEvaluation Overview of resulting simplification issues: * Replace command "django-admin.py" by "django-admin" or "django" * Replace command "manage.py" by "django" * Enable sqlite3 database / filename by default * Externalize database settings (e.g. dbdefault.py) * Enable Admin application by default * Create a superuser by default (e.g. user:admin / pass:django) * Rename "startapp" to "createapp" * Provide basic Database Evolution (e.g. add field) Solving those Issues would allow to produce a Django-Quick-Start which could be taken within 5 minutes (+ Installation Effort), which would allow intrested parties to come quickly in contact with Django. I would be intrested to creat a skeleton for the "Database Schema Evolution" (I have implemente a very simply one for a Ruby ORM). To do so, I would need some feedback from the developers list. Can I rely on this? - You can find more information about the overall project here: http://lazaridis.com/pj/index.html . -- http://lazaridis.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
