Project structure for large tornado project ?

[Eugene Liang]

Hi all, 

I'm sort of an intermediate tornado developer and know my way around building simple tornado apps.

I'm trying to improve myself and want to learn how to build larger tornado projects. 

Say for example, I want to build Facebook ( just the functionalities ) using Tornado, how should I organize my code such that I can quickly iterate with a team of coders ?

I've googled around and found some samples: 

https://github.com/bueda/tornado-boilerplate

https://github.com/decultured/Tornado-Base-Project

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15415634/whats-the-best-structure-for-a-large-scale-python-tornado-project

Which of the above is the most suitable ? How would you do it ?

My stack includes Python, MongoDB, jQuery on a Ubuntu server.

Looking forward to great discussions.

Best Regards.

Hi,

I'm also new at Tornado and at my company we're up to a project. We've organized as following:

moules
	user
		actions
			user_registration.py
			user_login.py
		models
			user.py
		handlers.py
		routes.py
app.py
logging.ini

That is, we've identified independent "modules". There are many modules say user, security, configuration, etc. We're using SQLAlchemy. Since all the heavy works are done in model files say user.py from above architecture, the file is getting pretty much big. Other than that, everything seems maintainable.

Hi, 

sounds like a good way to maintain a large project.

So to use the user model, you simply import it at your actions ?

I assume that you have multiple developers developing this project ?

Lastly, mind sharing with us how your routes.py and handlers.py look like ?

Thanks!
