Hi Bernd, I'm sorry that you had such a bad experience with TG. TG Documentation is trying to improve but as people who contribute to the doc part are few and often busy that process is a bit slowed down. I have to say that for me TG is indeed quite good as a rapid development framework, you can get your application working in the paster serve development server on sqlite in a few second. Deploying it is not really strictly related to being a "rapid web development framework" it is mostly related to the technology/solution that you use to deploy the software than the framework itself. If you find the mod_wsgi deploying too confusing please consider deploying the application with the proxied Service/Daemon methodology, for small applications it works quite well and is easier to achieve. > It's sad because the concept of combining SQLalchemy, ToscaWidgets and > Genshi is promising. > It seems what the people from Django achieve is not (only) setting the > words nicely in the docs but organizing the setup and structures in a > clear way, then it actually _works_ nicely, so the docs describing it > come out this way. > I'm sure that the TG documentation will improve, in the mean time I would suggest you to try to use the Service/Daemon deployment method or follow the mod_wsgi guidelines for Pylons to quickly setup your TG2 application in a server. http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/QuickConfigurationGuide http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/IntegrationWithPylons -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
