mass email app for django
Hi Group, currently i evaluating / research for a django app that supports mailing specific texts to a receipient list (like mass emailing). the corner features are: - email text should be editable (text or html nothing special) thru the admin app - the receipient list should be maintainable independently from users and texts (like a addressbook that is maintanale thru admin app) - ideally supports several mail backends like smtp, aws sms, postmark etc.. - processing of the sending can be done async via django cli / message queue services The closest use case app would be something like a newsletter app, where the subscibers can be maintainted apart from django.auth.users I am aware of www.djangopackages.com and found already a couple of applications that could make the job. I ask you folks if someone has good experience with a specific one and or what features are included and helpfull and what are not that helpfull. I really appreciate your contributions. -- Best Regards, Sven -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: text media files for comments
Hi Fatih, i would ask myself the question is this static data that not changes frequently or is it editable content that should be: a) maintainable from users (without code updates of course) b) is maintained independently form software releaes if one of thoses questions can be answered with yes then i would go for a model that stores that texts. So that in fact you only render that stuff within a normal view (like blog posts but much more simpler) if the answer is no: then just include it like css of js files and deliver the files with a custom ResponseView that reads the file content and puts it out, or a specialized template view that skips the parse and processing aspect of processing templates.

Re: mass email app for django
Hi Serge, unfortunately the smtp server is a managed server therefore no configuration to use a db as virtual mail backend can be performed. But thanks for your notes, especially i wasn't aware that djnago can use the postmark / rest api for mails out of the box. I need to investigate on that - exiting.

Re: mass email app for django
Hi Dedrerik, maybe your are right and just using a service like Mailchimp (which seems to be pretty userfriendly) would be the best way to go. I will defenetly have a look on it and try to find out if the users needs can be satisfied by that. Thanks a lot.

open data protocol and django
Hi Folks, again i wanna ask you if someone of you already had the chance to play around with the open data protocol and a django integration? Currently it looks like that there is no real stable client implementation for python. Only found that https://code.google.com/p/odata-py/ and it is still not production ready. After thinking about it i came to the idea that the djnago-rest-framework would be maybe the best starting point. The protocol is a REST based one and therefore only some serializers and glue code for data types and REST methods would be needed. An extension to rest-framework would be an possible option, maybe. Therefore the question if someone maybe did already a small playaround basing on django-rest-framework or a small selfmade implementation?

Re: How to re-sync with Heroku?
Hi Scott, it looks more like a cygwin - heroku issue. If you search for the heroku command, where do you find it, if even? Try to extend your PATH variable to the path whereever the tool belt was installed and try it again.
