Just a quick update here to let everyone know about my pylons fork. I’ve added my JSONRPCController and a small suite of unit tests. Now you can clone the repository and run the tests, play with the code, and if you’re up for it post some feedback. Oh the excitement is simply delicious.
Of course, there’s a bigger plan here. I hope JSONRPCController will be integrated into pylons, but it is just the first step. As you may be aware, I have been excited by the recent activity around pyjamas. Once JSONRPCController finds a home, the next step will be to create a setuptools plugin and pylons project template for building pyjamas-based projects on top of pylons.
However, it might be that this later stage of my plan will not be so easily accepted into the pylons core. I may have to spin it off into it’s own project. What would you call such a beast? A web application framework where you write the entire application in a single language. No HTML, templates, javascript, SQL, etc. Just straight Python. Nirvana? PyNirvana? I’m not good at the marketing stuff. Help me out here.
