Can i use buildbot for the server part and integrate it with frontend suite ? I tested buildbot on postorius by deploying it on aws and the tests that do not require selenium webdriver are working fine. varun sharma writes:

Why would you use Django to build the tool as opposed to "just" a python package?

I was thinking of expanding it like buildbot to include django based GUI and detailed reports. So i thought we can use django, but if we just want a command line tool, then python module will be fine.

Why not do both? I think that you should be able to separate the "business logic" from the UI elements.

Then use the "if __name__ == '__main__':" technique to implement the CLI, and import the module into the optional Django front end.
