I wanted to mention a project that I've been hacking that I think fits the bill of what you are looking for. Here is my current description of what it is: " A very complete example of how to a create a realtime web application using Django + Orbited + Twisted." Currently the code is a glorified example (it nearly could be called a 'complete app') and that is: "Realtime Voting Both - Realtime Voting, Chatting, and Editing Polls." The code is here: http://github.com/clemesha/hotdot and it is basically a "larger, more complete example" than the one I did some months ago, described here (you (Steve) have made a couple very helpful comments there so I know that you know of it's existence): http://clemesha.org/blog/2009/apr/23/Django-on-Twisted-using-latest-twisted-web-wsgi/ So, in the spirit of "release early and iterate", I invite you to go play with it: http://github.com/clemesha/hotdot It has some really cool parts (Django running from twisted.web.wsgi, Orbited as a Twisted Service, authentication using Twisted Cred+Django models, filtering/modification/logging of in-transit Orbited messages, etc) but it is also 'not done' and has some remaining 'crufty parts' (which others might have great ideas on how to improve on :-). I plan to continue to improve on it, and fairly soon I'll do a formal write-up/blog-post on the whole thing, but for now any feedback is appreciated. -Alex > > If you're interested, please contact me off-list at > sstein...@gmail.com. > > Thanks, > > S -- Alex Clemesha clemesha.org _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list Twisted-Python@twistedmatrix.com http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
