Pyramid TODOs
|
=============
|
|
Nice-to-Have
|
------------
|
|
- Consider adding exclog to all scaffolds to print tracebacks to the console
|
while the debug toolbar is enabled.
|
|
- Add narrative docs for wsgiapp and wsgiapp2.
|
|
- Better "Extending" chapter.
|
|
- Flesh out "Paste" narrative docs chapter.
|
|
- Basic WSGI documentation (pipeline / app / server).
|
|
- Change docs about creating a venusian decorator to not use ZCA.
|
|
- Try to better explain the relationship between a renderer and a template in
|
the templates chapter and elsewhere. Scan the documentation for reference
|
to a renderer as *only* view configuration (it's a larger concept now).
|
|
- Add better docs about what-to-do-when-behind-a-proxy: paste.urlmap ("/foo =
|
app1" and "domain app1.localhost = app1"), ProxyPreserveHost and the nginx
|
equivalent, preserving HTTPS URLs.
|
|
- _fix_registry should dictify the registry being fixed.
|
|
- Make "localizer" a property of request (instead of requiring
|
"get_localizer(request)"?
|
|
- Alias the stupid long default session factory name.
|
|
- Debug option to print view matching decision (e.g. debug_viewlookup or so).
|
|
- Non-bwcompat use of threadlocals that need to be documented or ameliorated:
|
|
security.principals_allowed_by_permission
|
|
resource.OverrideProvider._get_overrides: can't credibly be removed,
|
because it stores an overrideprovider as a module-scope global.
|
|
traversal.traverse: this API is a stepchild, and needs to be changed.
|
|
Configurator.add_translation_dirs: not passed any context but a message,
|
can't credibly be removed.
|
|
- Deprecate pyramid.security.view_execution_permitted (it only works for
|
traversal).
|
|
- Create a function which performs a recursive request.
|
|
- Create a ``render_view`` that works by using config.derive_view against an
|
existing view callable instead of querying the registry (some sort of API
|
for rendering a view callable object to a response from within another view
|
callable). Possible idea: have config.add_view mark up the
|
function/method/class like @view_config does, then use the attached info to
|
derive a view callable whenever called via some API.
|
|
- Provide a ``has_view`` function.
|
|
- Update App engine chapter with less creaky directions.
|
|
- Introspection features (whatever is needed by Alan/ptah).
|
|
Future
|
------
|
|
- 1.5: turn ``pyramid.settings.Settings`` into a function that returns the
|
original dict (after ``__getattr__`` deprecation period, it was deprecated
|
in 1.2).
|
|
- 1.3: Kill off ``bfg.routes`` envvars in router.
|
|
- 1.3/1.4: - Eliminate non-deployment-non-scaffold-related Paste dependencies:
|
``paste.urlparser.StaticURLParser``, ``paste.auth.auth_tkt`` (cutnpaste or
|
reimplement both).
|
|
- 1.3/1.4: use zope.registry rather than zope.component.
|
|
- 1.3/1.4: get rid of zope.configuration dependency. This will also speed up
|
startup time (defer _bootstrap and registerCommonDirectives() until needed).
|
|
- 1.3: Michael's route group work
|
|
- 1.3: Add a default-view-config-params decorator that can be applied to a
|
class which names defaults for method-based view_config decorator options.
|
|
- 1.4: Remove ``chameleon_text`` / ``chameleon_zpt`` deprecated functions
|
(render_*)
|
|
- 1.4: Remove ``pyramid.configuration.ConfigurationError`` (deprecated).
|
|
- 1.4: Remove ``pyramid.paster.PyramidTemplate`` (deprecated).
|
|
- 1.3: Remove ``pyramid.renderers.renderer_from_name`` (deprecated).
|
|
- 1.5: Remove ``pyramid.requests.DeprecatedRequestMethodsMixin``.
|
|
- 1.4: Remove ``pyramid.settings.get_settings`` (deprecated).
|
|
- 1.5: Remove all deprecated ``pyramid.testing`` functions.
|
|
Probably Bad Ideas
|
------------------
|
|
- Add functionality that mocks the behavior of ``repoze.browserid``.
|
|
- Consider implementing the API outlined in
|
http://plope.com/pyramid_auth_design_api_postmortem, phasing out the
|
current auth-n-auth abstractions in a backwards compatible way.
|
|
- Maybe add ``add_renderer_globals`` method to Configurator.
|
|
- Supply ``X-Vhm-Host`` support (probably better to do what paste#prefix
|
middleware does).
