Rationale
|
||||
=========
|
||||
|
||||
As of early 2011, there is a lot of flux in the Python world with
|
||||
regard to web frameworks. There are a couple of big players, namely
|
||||
`Django`_, `Pylons`_, and `TurboGears`_, as well as several more
|
||||
obscure projects like `CherryPy`_ and `Bottle`_. Having worked with
|
||||
many of these projects, I decided that although each has its strengths,
|
||||
they all also had something about them that just made me feel
|
||||
uncomfortable working with them.
|
||||
|
||||
Framework Comparison
|
||||
====================
|
||||
|
||||
Django
|
||||
++++++
|
||||
|
||||
.. rubric:: Strengths
|
||||
|
||||
* Very popular and actively developed, making it easy to get help and
|
||||
solve problems
|
||||
* Fully-featured, including an Object-Relational Mapper, URL dispatcher,
|
||||
template engine, and form library. Also includes "goodies" like
|
||||
authentication, an "admin" application, and sessions
|
||||
|
||||
.. rubric:: Discomforts
|
||||
|
||||
I am not specifically listing any of these issues as weaknesses or
|
||||
drawbacks, because they aren't *per-se*. Honestly, there isn't anything
|
||||
wrong with Django, and many people love it. Personally, I don't feel
|
||||
comfortable working with it for a few reasons.
|
||||
|
||||
* Storing configuration in a Python module is absurd
|
||||
* All of the components are so tightly-integrated it is nearly
|
||||
impossible to use some pieces without the others.
|
||||
|
||||
* I really don't like its ORM. `SQLAlchemy`_ is tremendously more
|
||||
powerful, and isn't nearly as restrictive (naming conventions, etc.)
|
||||
* The session handling middleware is very limited in comparison to
|
||||
other projects like `Beaker`_
|
||||
* I am not fond of the template engine and would prefer to use
|
||||
`Genshi`_.
|
||||
|
||||
Pylons/Pyramid
|
||||
++++++++++++++
|
||||
|
||||
The original Pylons was a very powerful web framework. It was probably
|
||||
my favorite framework, and I have built a number of applications using
|
||||
it. Unfortunately, development has been discontinued and efforts are
|
||||
now being concentrated on `Pyramid`_ instead.
|
||||
|
||||
Pylons
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
.. rubric:: Strengths
|
||||
|
||||
* While not as popular as Django, there still a significant following
|
||||
* The code base is very decoupled, allowing developers to swap out
|
||||
components without affecting the overall functionality of the
|
||||
framework.
|
||||
|
||||
.. rubric:: Weaknesses
|
||||
|
||||
* Overutilization of StackedObject proxies and global variables
|
||||
|
||||
Pyramid
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
I simply do not like Pyramid at all, and it is really disappointing that
|
||||
the Pylons project has moved in this direction. Essentially everything
|
||||
that I liked about Pylons is gone. The idea of using *traversal* to map
|
||||
URLs to routines is clever, but it is overly complex compared to the
|
||||
familiar URL dispatching in other frameworks.
|
||||
|
||||
* Tightly integrated with several Zope components, mostly interfaces
|
||||
(*puke*)
|
||||
* Template renderers are insanely complex and again, I don't like Zope
|
||||
interfaces. There is no simple way to use Genshi, which I absolutely
|
||||
adore.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Other Frameworks
|
||||
++++++++++++++++
|
||||
|
||||
I haven't used the other frameworks as much. In general, I try to avoid
|
||||
having my applications depend on obscure or unmaintained libraries
|
||||
because when I find a bug (and I will), I need some assurance that it
|
||||
will be fixed soon. I do not like having to patch other people's code
|
||||
in production environments, especially if it is an application I am
|
||||
passing along to a client.
|
||||
|
||||
I never really looked at TurboGears at all, and with the recent changes
|
||||
to the Pylons project, upon which TurboGears is based, there is a great
|
||||
deal of uncertainty with regard to its future.
|
||||
|
||||
CherryPy is very nice, and I did a bit of work with it a while back. I
|
||||
thought it was dead for a long time, though, and I have never really
|
||||
produced a production application built on it. With its most recent
|
||||
release (3.2.0), it is the first web framework to support Python 3,
|
||||
which is exciting. I may revisit it in the near future, as a matter
|
||||
of fact.
|
||||
|
||||
The Truth
|
||||
=========
|
||||
|
||||
The truth is, I started *Milla* as an exercise to better understand
|
||||
WSGI. All of the frameworks discussed above are great, and will most
|
||||
likely serve everyone's needs. There really isn't any reason for anyone
|
||||
to use *Milla* over any of them, but I won't stop you.
