Table of Contents
Welcome to the notmm project wiki!
notmm is a multi-purpose, heterogenous (non-monolithic), WSGI-based web toolkit on top of Django.
In short, this library ultimate goal is simply to provide a comprehensive set of tools to develop well-designed Django and/or Paste-based apps.
Features
- A generic mako-based render_response view (in notmm.wsgi.utils.mako_render_response)
- No (more) templates bundled in the standard source distribution! (New!)
- Contextual session support (New!) (See ScopedSession?)
- Support for setuptools and distribution packaging in Egg format (work in progress)
- API documentation available in reStructuredText and HTML (work in progress)

Getting started
This section is very oldish and inaccurate. Adventurous readers are encouraged to read initial instructions in INSTALL.
- Install? - Installation tutorial (start-here!)
- Configuration - How to configure and build a site distribution
- Cookbook? - Unofficial applications cookbook (TODO)
Development
New features being developed in my spare time.. ;-)
notmm.adapters.DjangoSettingsAdapter? - Experimental adapter for configuring a Django app w/PasteDeploy- notmm.wsgi.response.WSGIResponse - A experimental WSGI response subclass based on Paste (WebOb) and PEP-333
- notmm.utils.template - New template loader module based on mako
- notmm.models - New Django model implementation; An excuse for not yet studying SQLAlchemy..
Features being marked as deprecated/obsolete:
- Hm, sure there should be some..
Reusable Django-based applications
- apps.blogs - A blogging module with partial TinyMCE support
- apps.polls - A lightweight Polls/voting package
- apps.sandbox - Dummy package I use mainly for testing and development purposes
- apps.newadmin - Replacement package for django.contrib.admin (Experimental and kludgy!)
Please see the README for the list of packages included with the source distribution.
Demo site
A early demo is available here: http://frutz.dnsdojo.net:8080/stn-technical-blog/
This demo (err, weblog) currently implements the apps.blogs app.
