I am planning on doing a lot of coding over Christmas. A mail list system, Flickr based photo album, etc. If I could write them in a way that it would be easy for other people to integrate, I would be happy to donate.
My understanding - please correct Naming Convention/Coding style http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0008.html Widgets http://www.turbogears.org/docs/devcasts.html they go in Turbogears.widgets Toolbox turbogears.toolbox.tools Things that I think would be interesting and I will get around to. Batch manager - nightly,weekly cleanup jobs email manager - process incoming email. Security manager - I want to make a new identity system with database configuration Paypal manager or accounting manager. Modules By this, I mean chunks of code with templates, javascript, images, etc. A photoalbum, a bulletin board, a shopping cart, etc. Suppose, I wrote my module - code was in turbogears/addins/ModuleName - template directory would be below it. - model.py would be in the ModuleName directory. That way, a procedure could vacuum up all the model.py's and add them automatically. - database tablenames would start with ModuleName_blah - static files are in turbogears/static/addins/ModuleName I am planning on using apache to serve the static stuff. Theoretically, you could add Root.bbs = BulletinBoard() and be done. I am not yet sure what to do with batch jobs and email processors but they should be easy to find too. Packaging - use easyinstall No idea how I would do this yet but I will figure it out when the time comes. Sorry if this is beyond what TG should be. I am just really enthusiastic about it. I recently threw away about 10K lines of buggy PHP code that I wrote. It only did about half of what TG does. Of course, there are a few things that TG does not do and I want to add them in quickly. Thanks Alvin
