I am working on a tool that can create an application like that without
write server code, but the system is write in Python3.1

I would like to design a web site that can be used to help
people to find a cat
that they can adopt. Note, this is a non-profit project, but one
that I
believe to be quite important. Here are some of my initial
thoughts on this
project.
Site purpose:
To provide a web site for anyone to look at information on cats
at this home, and how
they can adopt one or more of these homeless cats.
Some features of the site:
1. A cat database that I as the web site designer would create.
This database would
contain an entry for each cat available for adoption. It would
include such things
as the name, sex, age, paths to image(s) and/or video(s) of the
cat, health status,
etc (see below).
2. Anyone accessing this site should be able to easily navigate
around it and to
examine entries in this database. The client (designated person
at the home
where the cats are kept for adoption) would be given privileges
to modify the
database (add, delete, and modify entries). The user interface
for the client
to update the database should be very easy to use. This GUI
provided to the
client for modification of the database would be written in
Python.
3. There would be no inputs to this web site. There would be an
embedded link for a
potential customer to send an email to the responsible person
(bringing up
their email client).
4. Track number of visitors to the site.
Preliminary notes on the database
Fields:
- ID code (key)
- Name
- Sex (M / F)
- Neutered / Not neutered
- Age (estimated)
- Type (breed)
- Tagged (chip or ear marking)/ Not tagged
- Checked In date (yy/mm/dd)
- Checked Out date (yy/mm/dd)
- Status (needs home / has home)
- Social state (1,2,3,4,5)
- Health state (1,2,3,4,5)
- Companion state (1,2,3,4,5)
- Image (file name) % multiple files allowed
- Video (file name) % multiple files allowed
- Medical/vet data (text on vaccinations, etc.)
- General information (text on cat that includes comments,
observations, etc.)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes on database:
* state = 1, Best
5, Worst
Examples:
Social state = 5, very unfriendly, afraid, etc.
3, can touch if careful
1, very friendly, unafraid
Health state = 5, not in good health (eg infection)
3, only minor health problems
1, in very good health
Companion state = 5, must have another cat or cats as company
3, could be with other cat(s) company
1, does not need the company of another cat
Now, with this initial information (granted this is very
rough), my question:
How, armed with Python 2.6 (or 2.7) and all of the Python
packages available,
should I attack the problem of getting this web site up and
running on a Windows
platform?
Please keep in mind that do have some experience with Python and
HTML; but, this
would be my first web site project using Python.
Any suggestions, study plan, references, etc. would be welcomed.
