When: 7 PM Thursday December 10, 2009 Where: Sully's House Tap Room and Grill Topics ------ 1. 7:00 Packaging Python for Debian/Ubuntu (Tal Liron ) 2. 8:00 REST-ful Web apps with Django Piston (Matt Dorn ) Details ------- 1. Packaging Python for Debian/Ubuntu Tal Liron Introduction to the whole Debian distribution system, which is actually pretty neat, and show you how to push your Python app into a Personal Package Archive (PPA) on Launchpad, which is not neat at all and in fact is an undocumented abyss teeming with poisonous, man-eating crocodiles. I'll save you from the crocodiles. 2. REST-ful Web apps with Django Piston Matt Dorn A common complaint about Django, the leading Python web application framework, is that it doesn't make writing REST APIs easy enough. In fact the paradigm for a typical Django application involves views which map to HTML page templates. With end users increasingly expecting rich interfaces with the responsiveness of a desktop application, this paradigm is being superseded. Fortunately a third-party Django application called Piston fills the gap. Django/Piston can be combined with the Ext JS JavaScript framework and widget set to create attractive, responsive Web applications, and this talk will show you how.
