Making python apps web accessible via turbogears ??

[gale.m...@gmail.com]

Hey,

Is there a simple way to take a current python app which runs as a GUI
and make it web accessible via TurboGears ??

I want to be able to make system-config-kickstart (available via: yum -
y install system-config-kickstart) accessible via a web interface.

Or maybe just use some of it's modules to import data ?

Its simple if the app wasn't written around the GUI. It is hard if it was.
So, the answer is: it depends on the app.

If it has modules, you can redraw some screens as HTML forms and work with
that importing those modules. It should be as simple as that.

Michael, I highly recommend the O'Reilly book, "RESTful Web Services"
http://www.amazon.com/RESTful-Web-Services-Leonard-Richardson/dp/0596529260/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/105-0043136-1801236?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1193797341&sr=1-1

It helped me immensely on figuring that kind of stuff out.

Have you looked at:
https://hosted.fedoraproject.org/projects/wevisor

If you're interested in working on that, I think development has stalled
and someone needs to step in to pick up the reigns.
