Sample Applications
|
===================
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
These applications are for an older version of :mod:`pyramid`,
|
which was named :mod:`repoze.bfg`. We'll be updating them soon to
|
use :mod:`pyramid`.
|
|
`repoze.cluegun <http://svn.repoze.org/repoze.cluegun/trunk/>`_ is a
|
simple pastebin application based on Rocky Burt's `ClueBin
|
<http://pypi.python.org/pypi/ClueBin/0.2.3>`_. It demonstrates form
|
processing, security, and the use of :term:`ZODB` within a
|
:mod:`repoze.bfg` application. It also has very simple
|
:term:`repoze.who` integration. Check this application out of
|
Subversion via::
|
|
svn co http://svn.repoze.org/repoze.cluegun/trunk repoze.cluegun
|
|
`repoze.virginia <http://svn.repoze.org/repoze.virginia/trunk/>`_ is a
|
very simple dynamic file rendering application. It is willing to
|
render structured text documents, HTML documents, and images from a
|
filesystem directory. This application runs the `repoze.org
|
<http://repoze.org>`_ website. Check this application out of
|
Subversion via::
|
|
svn co http://svn.repoze.org/repoze.virginia/trunk repoze.virginia
|
|
`repoze.shootout <http://svn.repoze.org/repoze.shootout/trunk/>`_ is
|
an example "idea competition" application by Carlos de la Guardia. It
|
demonstrates a hybrid of :term:`URL dispatch` and :term:`traversal`
|
and integration with `SQLAlchemy <http://www.sqlalchemy.org/>`_ and
|
:term:`repoze.who`. Check this application out of Subversion via::
|
|
svn co http://svn.repoze.org/repoze.shootout/trunk repoze.shootout
|
|
`bfgsite <http://svn.repoze.org/bfgsite/trunk>`_ is the software which
|
runs the `bfg.repoze.org <http://bfg.repoze.org>`_ website. It
|
demonstrates integration with Trac, and includes several
|
mini-applications such as a pastebin and tutorial engine. Check a
|
buildout for this application out of Subversion via::
|
|
svn co http://svn.repoze.org/buildouts/bfgsite/ bfgsite_buildout
|
|
`KARL <http://karlproject.org>`_ is a moderately-sized application
|
(roughly 70K lines of Python code) built on top of :mod:`repoze.bfg`
|
and other Repoze software. It is an open source web system for
|
collaboration, organizational intranets, and knowledge management, It
|
provides facilities for wikis, calendars, manuals, searching, tagging,
|
commenting, and file uploads. See the `KARL site
|
<http://karlproject.org>`_ for download and installation details.
|
