For me, Django doesn't seem to be delivering on its promise to allow
me to build a collection of apps and organize them in different

can find doesn't really give any clues about best practices for
project organization. One problem is that the name of the Django
project folder (and thus root module) always seems to creep into the
code in the app-specific directories. Any insight you can offer would
be appreciated.
in most cases (all for me so far) you can omit the project name.
I had started doing that in several places but then had problems when
I tried to set up my project with lighttpd according to
https://simon.bofh.ms/cgi-bin/trac-django-projects.cgi/wiki/DjangoFcgiLighttpd
The result was that I started qualifying more names than I had been
before.
I actually ran into some problems while deploying with mod_python
when mentioning the project name in urls. conf and in some import
statements. it's all about the python-path :)
Of course.
I always use e.g
app_name.models.bla instead of project_name.app_name.models.bla
everywhere now At does seem a bit weird, that in many tutorials and
the Documentation the project name is always creeps in.
Yeah. And conversely, it's weird that in other places django smooshes
together what ought to be separate namespaces. For example, a
template can refer to the templatetags of any app without
qualification. Is there even a way to add qualification to
disambiguate? If I have two apps with a templatetag called "index,"
what happens?
I guess it's bad practice when trying to decouple an app from
specific projects. I agree that there should be a chapter on best
decoupling practaces in the docs.
decoupling url.confs: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/0_91/
tutorial3/#decoupling-the-urlconfs
Yes, that's useful, and I have to admit that I haven't applied it to
my project yet.
