Hi,
I hope this is a right place to ask, not very sure where to post on
internet.
It's about planning a django project, maybe a similar django package has
been already there, if it's true, I hope someone can tell me which it is.
The feature list of the project I am wishing to do is:
- Let users upload some images(a folder contains image files)
- Backend generates static htmls to present those images, basically as
a gallery, via an generated url
- User can select from default themes(templates)
- The template I am talking about here is not django template, they
are a bunch of xhtml, css and js files can be choose from default or
uploaded by user.
- User can upload and use their customized templates
- I made a local Python program that can work for the purpose
here: https://github.com/viewplatgh/pgal, maybe can help you understand
the
feature I am trying to implement on the django project
- The workflow is quite similar to http://codepen.io, but what user
inputs are images, optionally templates, css and js files, rather than html
file itself. The htmls are generated by django app, and create a short url
for people who uploaded/built their resources to view the gallery.
I know this app don't have to be implemented by using django. I
choose django because Python is the language I'm familiar with and it's the
framework I have a little experience with, but to implement such a site I
have so many questions and don't know where to start. I don't expect an
exact answer to this post, but just hope to collect more helpful
information, resources and ideas from experienced programmers to help me
kick my project off...
Here is some questions in my mind currently:
- Would django allow me to write a bunch of files at backend?
- Unlike php, django's urls don't map to server's folders. But I need
that feature to let user view the generated statics. How do I work through
this. Should I generate django templates?
- How to prevent user from uploading malicious stuff to backend...
Any suggestions, ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!
Thanks
Rob L
