Hello everyone, I am working on a CMS that includes a bunch of applications (like Story, Event, etc...) with some being propriatary and some being third party. When it comes to our naming conventions, we've had a bit of discussion over namespace issues. Now I have been referencing James Bennett's post on Projects (http://www.b-list.org/weblog/2007/nov/09/ projects/) to make the argument that we should be putting our application directory under the Python path and then importing our apps like:
from story.models import Story But the other side of the discussion is instead doing something like: from foobar.story.models import Story ... where foobar is our Python package name (the name of our CMS basically) so that we can avoid possible namespace issues. I have read the Python docs (http://www.python.org/doc/2.5.2/tut/ node8.html#SECTION008400000000000000000) about packages and it seems as though the recommended approach would be to do the second example (from foobar.story.models import Story) but from everything Im hearing in the Django community is that the one I propose (from story.models import Story) is the preferred method. Could anyone shed some light on the issue and let me know which one is the best approach in your mind (I know there are "many ways to skin a cat"...)? Thanks for any help!
