JJinuxLand: Python Werkzeug

JJinuxLand: Python Werkzeug: "I just finished the Werkzeug tutorial, and it looks pretty good.

Werkzeug started as simple collection of various utilities for WSGI applications and has become one of the most advanced WSGI utility modules. It includes a powerful debugger, full featured request and response objects, HTTP utilities to handle entity tags, cache control headers, HTTP dates, cookie handling, file uploads, a powerful URL routing system and a bunch of community contributed addon modules.

Werkzeug is unicode aware and doesn't enforce a specific template engine, database adapter or anything else. It doesn't even enforce a specific way of handling requests and leaves all that up to the developer.

Werkzeug is most useful for end user applications which should work on as many server environments as possible (such as blogs, wikis, bulletin boards, etc.).

Having coded applications in Aquarium, Django, Pylons, Ruby on Rails, Zope, Plone, etc., I've been fascinated by the idea of an anti-framework. A framework establishes the flow of the application and calls your code at certain points. That's the opposite of a library. A library lets you call its code whenever and however you want. Werkzeug is a collection of libraries."

Mike Coyle’s Weblog » Blog Archive » My PM Network Interview, or Tales from the Cutting Room Floor: "8) What ways can small teams work most effectively to accomplish big tasks?

There are four aspects that drive small-team effectiveness: Planning, Process, Automation, and Asset Management.

* Planning: Small teams need to focus their efforts on understanding how the key moving parts of their project fit together so that they can proactively categorize and manage delivery risk. This is far more important than trying to optimize the workload balancing in your project plan, since you’re not trying to distribute lots of work among interchangeable resources on a large team.
* Process: Small teams should maintain strict adherence to a lightweight process. Individual heroics are not scalable nor predictable over time. Even small teams need to play by the book, but they need to make sure that it’s the right book for them.
* Automation: Small teams need to maximize the amount of work that they don’t do, and focus their efforts on the important stuff. If work cannot be avoided, it should be automated. Computers are really good at doing predictable stuff really fast.
* Asset Management: Small teams should manage their important data using some sort of version control mechanism. A good version control syste"

Overview — Sphinx Documentation

Overview — Sphinx Documentation: "Sphinx is a tool that makes it easy to create intelligent and beautiful documentation for Python projects, written by Georg Brandl and licensed under the BSD license.

It was originally created to translate the new Python documentation, but has now been cleaned up in the hope that it will be useful to many other projects. (Of course, this site is also created from reStructuredText sources using Sphinx!)"

SAGE: Open Source Mathematics Software

SAGE: Open Source Mathematics Software: "General and Advanced Pure and Applied Mathematics
Use SAGE for studying a huge range of mathematics, including algebra, calculus, elementary to very advanced number theory, cryptography, numerical computation, commutative algebra, group theory, combinatorics, graph theory, and exact linear algebra.
Use an Open Source Alternative
By using SAGE you help to support a viable open source alternative to Magma, Maple, Mathematica, and MATLAB. SAGE includes many high-quality open source math packages."

Pyxer - Python statt (durch) JavaScript

[Der Schockwellenreiter: Weblog-Archiv 07.03.2008]: "Pyxer (GPL) ist ein Python-AJAX-Server und -Framework, ähnlich dem Jaxter-Projekt von Aptana (hier nur mit Java). Es erlaubt, Client- wie auch Server-seitig den Einsatz von Python-Scripten. Diese werden dann vom Server nach JavaScript übersetzt. Das AJAX-Framework läuft transparent im Hintergrund. Sollte ich mal testen. [Peter van I. per Email.]"

Publicize PyCon - PyCon 2008 - Chicago - A Conference for the Python Community: "PyCon 2008

March 14-16, 2008

http://us.pycon.org

PyCon 2008, the sixth annual community conference for the Python programming language, comes to Chicago this year. The conference takes place March 14-16 at the Crowne Plaza Chicago O'Hare Hotel.

A rich schedule is being planned, including presentations, keynotes, Lightning Talks, an exhibition hall, and the hands-on Python Lab. Plentiful Open Space has been set aside for Birds-of-a-Feather sessions and other unscheduled 'unconference'-style activity. Several tutorials and talks are designed for new Python users and new programmers specifically.

The conference will be preceded by a day of intensive tutorials (March 13). Afterward, four days of development sprints (March 17-20) will bring participants together for face-to-face cooperation to advance several Python open-source projects.

PyCon attendance grew 44% from 2006 to 2007. PyCon 2008 has already set records for number of talks, tutorials, and sprints scheduled.

Registration is open now. Early-bird registration rates ($400 corporate, $220 hobbyist, $125 student) are available through February 20.

About Python:

Python is a dynamic, open-source programming language suited to many kinds of software development. TIOBE named Python the fastest-growing programming language of 2007. Python is particularly recognized as a valuable language for education. Its ease of use allows quick start-up and progress, yet it also encourages good long-term programming habits and style. Its clear, readable syntax makes cooperation between students and instructors easy. Thanks to its broad capabilities, rich libraries, and vigorous community, Python can continue to be a student's language of choice long after moving from beginner to expert. Python code can run on Java and .NET platforms through the Jython and IronPython implementations.

Tim Golden's Python Stuff: Win32 How Do I...?

Tim Golden's Python Stuff: Win32 How Do I...?: "The idea of this page is to answer various of the How Do I...? questions relating to Python under Win32. Although I probably will cover some simpler things, the intention is to group subjects which are less commonly covered in the books and mailing lists. You could see it as a kind of infrequently-asked questions."

Resolver Systems Ltd

Resolver Systems Ltd: "Resolver one is the right tool for anyone who performs complex data analysis daily. It combines a familiar spreadsheet-like interface with the powerful IronPython programming language to give you a tool to analyse and present your data. Learn more."

My Name Rhymes - Functional Roman Numerals in Python: "Just as a quck note, I thought I'd post the cleanest python I could come up with to solve the roman numerals problem I discussed earlier. It tries to use a functional style while actually avoiding recursion. To do so, I wrote an iterative python unfold:"

Python Package Index : virtualenv 1.0

Python Package Index : virtualenv 1.0: "virtualenv is a tool to create isolated Python environments.

The basic problem being addressed is one of dependencies and versions, and indirectly permissions. Imagine you have an application that needs version 1 of LibFoo, but another application requires version 2. How can you use both these applications? If you install everything into /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages (or whatever your platform's standard location is), it's easy to end up in a situation where you unintentionally upgrade an application that shouldn't be upgraded."

ShowMeDo Blog » Blog Archive » Growth in Python Project Popularity

ShowMeDo Blog » Blog Archive » Growth in Python Project Popularity: "Since March 2004 these figures suggest a tripling for NumPy and a doubling for wxPython, jython, py2exe and mysql-python - great growth!

The Python wiki also states that in March 2004 Python-2.3.3.exe had 60K downloads. Looking at the December 2007 Python.org download stats we can see that /ftp/python/2.5.1/python-2.5.1.msi has 511,104 downloads.

Assuming March 2004 was a representative month for Windows, this shows almost a 10-fold growth in Windows downloads in 3.5 years."
