This project is obsolete. I just put it here for archiving. SPARK ==================================================================== Spark's Python And Ruby Kit for deleveping web sites. ==================================================================== The documents are at http://pytan.com/ Contents -------- 1 Quick Start 2 Prerequisites and Optionals 3 Web Server Setup - Built-in Server - Apache + ModPython - Apache + ModRuby - Lighttpd + Ruby Fastcgi - Lighttpd + Python Fastcgi - Twisted 4 Other Info -------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Quick Start -------------------------------------------------------------------- 1, Type "python setup" or "ruby setup" 2, "chmod 777 +R cache" 3, "python scripts/server.py" or "ruby scripts/server.rb" to start buildin webserver at port 8888. See section 3 - Web Server Setup for other webserver setup. The setup step does NOT install anything in your site-packages or site-ruby or gems directory, everything is setup within current directory. -------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Prerequisites and Optionals: -------------------------------------------------------------------- Prerequisites: For web server prerequisites, see specific web server in the next section. Optionals: 1, Mysql binding mysql-python: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python/ MySQL/Ruby: http://www.tmtm.org/en/mysql/ruby/ Try following to make sure it installed correctly: import MySQLdb #python require "mysql" #irb 2. Mochikit http://www.mochikit.com/ Note: Mochikit is already installed in public/js directory to support admin_controller. 4. FCKeditor http://www.fckeditor.net/ FCKeditor is prefered for blog writting interface -------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Web Server Setup -------------------------------------------------------------------- 3.1 Built-in Server ------------------------------ to start: $python scripts/server.py or $ruby scripts/server.rb The default port is 8888. Please note built-in server is slow. It's good for debug, since the server fork new cgi process for each request, you don't have to restart the server for changes to take effect. 3.2 Apache + ModPython ------------------------------ Install ModPython: http://www.modpython.org Type: import mod_python to make sure it is installed correctly. Copy/paste the content of the file "etc/apache_modpython.conf" to your httpd.conf (or copy the file to your conf.d/ directory). The only thing you need to change is "ServerName" directive. Restart apache. 3.3 Apache + ModRuby ------------------------------ DO NOT use. Currently broken, will be fixed. Install ModRuby: http://www.modruby.net/ 3.4 Lighttpd + Python Fastcgi ------------------------------ Install Flup: http://www.saddi.com/software/flup/ Type import flup to make sure it's installed correctly. Optionally make modification to etc/lighttpd-python.conf. Start lighttpd: lighttpd -f etc/lighttpd-python.conf 3.5 Lighttpd + Ruby Fastcgi ------------------------------ Install ruby-fcgi: http://sugi.nemui.org/prod/ruby-fcgi/ Type require "fcgi" to make sure it's installed correctly. Optionally make modification to etc/lighttpd-ruby.conf. Start lighttpd: lighttpd -f etc/lighttpd-ruby.conf 3.6 Twisted ------------------------------ to start: $./scripts/twistedctl start to stop: $./scripts/twistedctl stop -------------------------------------------------------------------- 4.
