Web framework to recommend

[Jacky]

Hi all,

I just started learning Python and would like to starting writing some
web-based applications with Python.

I did have pretty much experience with doing so with PHP and Java, but
Python seems a bit different for me.

Do you guys have some good web framework to recommend? (I don't want to
use CGI mode)

Thanks a lot.

Hi Jacky,
if you want make a good experiment, you can use:

LocaWapp - localhost web applications
http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/LocaWapp/09

Post here your feedback.
Bye and good work

Hi, Jacky

Please find below a link to the tool you're looking for :
http://karrigell.sourceforge.net/

It's small, easy to install and work with, good documented (In english
an in french).
The developper is also very reactive on questions / remarks.

I'm using it since more than 1 year without trouble

Hope you'll enjoy
Regards, Jerome

Hi Jacky,

Even though Turbogears and Django are focused from many people,
and I'm not so sure whether this the best or not,
but let's check at http://spyce.sourceforge.net,
you can embed Python script into the page just like JPS,ASP,PHP.

Hope this help.

Cheers!

You could check out my web framework, the UnrealTower Engine. It uses
Cheetah as template engine, it's fast and small - it doesn't get in
your way.

There's quite a lot of (good) web frameworks for Python, and choosing
the right one depends a lot on specific requirements you didn't express...

Hi all,

Thanks all of you for your recommendations, I'll check them out one by one.

Besides, I'd like to say more about what I want to do. Since I'm
planning to write something for "backend", I might not focus very much
on the layout (HTML template) yet. Instead, I'd like to receive inputs
in XML format and then output XML after processing (or maybe I should
use web services, perhaps?).

Of course, I will write a complete web application in my other projects
(such as those I wrote with PRADO and JSF), so all recommendations are
welcomed

Thank you!


Best Wishes,

Jacky

You might want to have a look at Turbogears.

Thank you!

Hello Jacky,

I found CherryPy + Cheeta a good solution.

Spyce is probably the most underappreciated Python
web solution out there. If you don't want the hassle
of a framework's learning curve, Spyce lets you do
PHP/JSP/ASP style coding using what you already know
about Python and not much else.

It is also more powerful than PHP because it supports
features such as custom tags (ala JSP) and others.


Check out the Wikipedia article below:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spyce

The important thing to note is that you can transparently
use traditional ASP, JSP style angled brackets <% and %>
and not the confusing [[, ]] that Spyce documentation defaults
to. I believe this is what may have turned many people (who are
not aware of the more standard alternative) off from using
Spyce.

I however, disagree with the assertion in the wikipedia
article that Spyce is easier to set up than PHP... PHP is
just as easy to set up as Spyce, if not easier...
