Lastest release
notmm toolkit v0.4.5
About
Controversial, scalable, and independent fork of Django on top of WSGI with privacy, security and freedom of expression in mind. Designed to provide a fresh and efficient web application platform for Python web developers using the MVC philosophy plus several modifications to allow unrestricted customizations on top of Django. Designed so that programmers can stay in control of their web sites easily using a traditional approach to web development, that is, by fully centralizing (as opposed to distributed) the controller and related middlewares into a single Python based (WSGI) application.
Design philosophy
Scalable and non-monolithic By Design
Allow developers to write scalable Django apps easily.
The notmm toolkit provides a modular controller-based API to develop advanced WSGI applications on top of the Django framework while staying in control of the undelegated web framework based on the WSGI specification.
Pragmatic Web Application Development
Enable developers to test and develop server side WSGI applications in a sandbox environment by writing unit tests.
Rapid Framework Refactoring
Based on the unittest module for continuous integration and rapid web framework refactoring.
Open Source
Fully open source licensed (ISC). The notmm toolkit works best under the GNU/Linux OS or a BSD variant.
Features
- Follows the WSGI 1.0 specification for development of related HTTP-based libraries in Python.
- Supports most Django apps designed for Django, including Satchmo, FeinCMS, and more.
- MVC (Model-View-Controller) API design with built-in regular-expression URL dispatching.
- UTF-8 template loading, rendering, and caching. (Mako, Beaker New)
- Memcache backend support tools. (New)
- The API pages and the Developer Handbook are generated with Doxygen and Sphinx respectively.
- Compatible with Python 2.5, 2.6, and 2.7.
- Commercial support kindly offered and available on request. :)
Experimental Features
- Experimental AES encryption of picklable Python objects using pycryptopp
- Experimental SQLAlchemy database backends and functions. (Declarative mapper, Elixir)
- Experimental non-relational database backends and functions. (Schevo, MongoDB)
- Experimental unittest2 integration in the notmm.utils.test package.
- Experimental I18N support. (Based on Django's I18N framework)
- Experimental C bindings generation with Cython.
