Spyce testimonials

Since the Daily Python URL was kind enough to link to the 2.0.3 announcement, I thought a few testimonials might be in order. :)
I tried downloading, installing and using Spyce 2.0.2 on Windows and Linux yesterday and it worked like a dream. I have already set up a useful little dynamic site on a linux box and plan to expand it radically in the weeks ahead. I am using Spyce in webserver mode and also using the scheduler to trigger periodic repository updates.

Spyce is really speeding up my "project"... at this rate, I'll be ready for pre-beta testing in about two months. I'm utterly addicted to encapsulation via active tags.

(Not to pick on them since they do have a nice framework, but Tim was formerly using CherryPy. Most recently, anyway.)

Here is an update: I have created and deployed 5 Spyce-based apps incorporating 15 spy pages as well as an extended version of the "ToDo List" demo application. I did this in 7 weeks starting from scratch. Two of the apps are already in active use on 2 continents (with 2 more continents to be added soon.)

I still consider myself a Spyce neophyte, but the bottom-line is that Spyce has enabled me to realize the python advantage of rapid development in the realm of dynamic web-based apps.

I have checked lots of python webframework (django,turbogears2,cherrypy,zope,web2py and lots other on python site : http://wiki.python.org/moin/WebFrameworks)

My requirement was very simple:

1. Python version 2.5+ (for our leagacy code)
2. No MVC framework (wanted raw control, minimum setup requirement,easy to deploy,wanted to create own directory structure).
3.Easy to deploy.
4.Basic web object requirement(response,request,session,form handling,database operation)
5.Own autentication module.
6. Should work on windows and unix/linux.
7.Able to work with Apache 2.2 or lighttpd.
8.Easy to integrate AJAX.

And all of the above requirements
fitted only one and that was none other than "SPYCE"


More I invested time to look into "SPYCE" framework more I loved it.

I have created scalable and loosely coupled AJAX-JQUERY solution within short period of time.

Lots of Thanks to "SPYCERS" who created this lovely framework.

Spyce has given me herculean strenght for python web development.

Feel free to ask me regarding my experice with my beloved Python framework at sksahir @ gmail .com

Why schema definition belongs in the database

Earlier, I wrote about how ORM developers shouldn't try to re-invent SQL . It doesn't need to be done, and you're not likely to end up with an actual improvement. SQL may be designed by committee, but it's also been refined from thousands if not millions of man-years of database experience. The same applies to DDL. (Data Definition Langage -- the part of the SQL standard that deals with CREATE and ALTER.) Unfortunately, a number of Python ORMs are trying to replace DDL with a homegrown Python API. This is a Bad Thing. There are at least four reasons why: Standards compliance Completeness Maintainability Beauty Standards compliance SQL DDL is a standard. That means if you want something more sophisticated than Emacs, you can choose any of half a dozen modeling tools like ERwin or ER/Studio to generate and edit your DDL. The Python data definition APIs, by contrast, aren't even compatibile with other Python tools. You can't take a table definition

Python at Mozy.com

At my day job, I write code for a company called Berkeley Data Systems. (They found me through this blog, actually. It's been a good place to work.) Our first product is free online backup at mozy.com . Our second beta release was yesterday; the obvious problems have been fixed, so I feel reasonably good about blogging about it. Our back end, which is the most algorithmically complex part -- as opposed to fighting-Microsoft-APIs complex, as we have to in our desktop client -- is 90% in python with one C extension for speed. We (well, they, since I wasn't at the company at that point) initially chose Python for speed of development, and it's definitely fulfilled that expectation. (It's also lived up to its reputation for readability, in that the Python code has had 3 different developers -- in serial -- with very quick ramp-ups in each case. Python's succinctness and and one-obvious-way-to-do-it philosophy played a big part in this.) If you try it out, pleas

A review of 6 Python IDEs

(March 2006: you may also be interested the updated review I did for PyCon -- http://spyced.blogspot.com/2006/02/pycon-python-ide-review.html .) For September's meeting, the Utah Python User Group hosted an IDE shootout. 5 presenters reviewed 6 IDEs: PyDev 0.9.8.1 Eric3 3.7.1 Boa Constructor 0.4.4 BlackAdder 1.1 Komodo 3.1 Wing IDE 2.0.3 (The windows version was tested for all but Eric3, which was tested on Linux. Eric3 is based on Qt, which basically means you can't run it on Windows unless you've shelled out $$$ for a commerical Qt license, since there is no GPL version of Qt for Windows. Yes, there's Qt Free , but that's not exactly production-ready software.) Perhaps the most notable IDEs not included are SPE and DrPython. Alas, nobody had time to review these, but if you're looking for a free IDE perhaps you should include these in your search, because PyDev was the only one of the 3 free ones that we'd consider using. And if you aren
