Hi all,

I'd like to hear from python web devs on strategies for instrumenting  
production wsgi apps for perfomance and availability monitoring. Are  
there existing tools that you use? What sort of things do you monitor  
(db connection state, response time stats etc) and how intrusive are  
the instrumentation tools on the performance of the system itself?

-Taj.

Graphite + statsd/pystatsd is pretty good for performance tracking.

http://codeascraft.etsy.com/2011/02/15/measure-anything-measure-everything/

The app sends performance metrics as UDP packets to statsd and
collects stats and updates Graphite, the storage and rendering engine,
at regular intervals. Since the app is using UDP, it doesn't have to
wait for acknowledgement for packets send, adding very less overhead.

We use nagios for availability monitoring. There are many
alternatives, try asking google.

I recommend using DTrace.

There was a video hosted on YouTube last night on using DTrace to
understand MySQL performance. I have retweeted about it (@sriramnrn)
today morning.

If you use DTrace, you can understand latencies at various sections of
the system.

Interesting. 

I think it should be possible (and would be useful) to drop statistics
obtained using dtrace into graphite (along with other things that dtrace
can't do) so that you can a single uniform picture of what's going on.

I think it is too low-level tool to use for performance monitoring. It
might be good for some detailed introspection or troubleshooting. I
think the python profiler gives quite good information about where the
time is spent.

I use a special query parameter to dump the profiling information of
handling a single request using hotshot profiler.

http://openlibrary.org/lists?_profile=true

(scroll to the bottom to see the output of the profiler).

It's a bit of a long story really. It's mostly based on Anand's
experiences creating another noSQL storage system on top of postgreSQL
and some performance problems with couch itself. 

If there's sufficient interest, it would be a fun talk. All the noSQL
naysayers would be welcome too. :)

So, do we have any more interest in the talk? 

Any other talks which people might be interested in giving?

I did some work myself recently using Lamson[1] which is an MVC
framework for email based applications. I can give a presentation on
that if there's interest. 

As for time, this weekend is BarCamp. Perhaps the next weekend (18 or 19
June).

Subject: [BangPypers] return value
Message-ID: <BANLkTin-co3uGhkmvgRL37sy-b3My66v8g@mail.gmail.com>

HI All,

In my framework, some of function returns a Tuple.

def fn ():
    return a,b

x,y = fn()

Going forward, I got such a situation where we need to return single value
from function. (Don't ask me to retain old behavior :) )

Now the problem is we need to maintain backward compatibility too.
Is there any way we can make the function so smart that according to the way
function is being called, it should return single value or a tuple.

Does your func by any chance accept **kw (i.e, multiple arguments)?

Yes,

It takes, *arg as well as**args.
I just gave an example to show the return from function behavior.

Then it should be easy right...
think in terms of...what you will do when you are given an ice-cream...

Message-ID: <BANLkTikzPAvvNZJpGXg-HmXXnKqh9=97_Q@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all , While doing some experiments to extend some features of my
project . I added an app and tried to create a generic relation using
the contenttype framework  as described here

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/contenttypes/

However when run syncdb again . The fixtures fail to load and give the
following error

IntegrityError: duplicate key value violates unique constraint
"django_content_type_app_label_key"

Can some explain to me what is going on/wrong here ?

Notably fixtures load fine as long as there is no contenttype based relation.

Depends on what you want out of it. You could extract text and just
diff it or you can check sum the files and compare the hashes.

Message-ID: <BANLkTimdcuTdun4FuOSOVssCDqeEB-uB4Q@mail.gmail.com>

All,

While looking into news.google.co.in site, they find the similar news by
grouping them..

For example, The following news headlines from different online portal are
grouped together.

Jayalalithaa meets PM, DMK watches closely
Jaya to meet PM today in New Delhi
Jaya-PM meet, 'jittery' DMK watches on Times

How to do this in Python? I think, NLT toolkit is too large for me to learn
and do.. Any other fun & simpler way to do that?

Regards,

Gopal

I dont think you can do it without using some kind of natural language
processing or parsing system. I had tried doing something similar to pickup
relevant keywords from an article, and the home grown script just got
bigger,complex and actually buggier.And  it kept throwing irrelevant stuff.

1) NLTK is pretty simple. You can do duplicate detection pretty easily -
look out for sample codes.

2) Do a keyword generation from the content and check the correlation
between documents.

3) For headlines alone : do a substring matching?(but this would leave the
semantics of the text - i.e, 'Jayalalitha was last seen in KOdagu estate'
and 'Real estate would get a boost under Jayalalitha' would be categorized
under the same)

Thanks for suggestion. Can you give me a specific NLT toolset/approach with
example if you have experience already?

Hi Gopalakrishnan,

You can follow the following algorithm for clustering the news items:

1. Tokenize the headline.
2. Remove the stop words from the headlines, i.e., words like "a",
"an", "is", "the", etc.
3. Generate shingles from the remaining words.
??? ex, 4-shignles for watches generates the following.
??? ['wa', 'wat', 'watc']
??? ['at', 'atc', 'atch']
??? ['tc', 'tch', 'tche']
??? ['ch', 'che', 'ches']
??? ['he', 'hes']
??? ['es'']

4. Calculate Jaccard similarity between each pair of headlines. This
will result in a "n*n" matrix for "n" news headlines.
    Jaccard similarity = (number of common singles between HEAD_a and
HEAD_b) / (number of unique singles in HEAD_a and HEAD_b combined)

5. Cluster the headlines constrained by a parameterized
MIN_SIMILARITY_THRESHOLD.

Devjyoti

Try clustering with Python NLTK ( http://www.nltk.org/ ).
NLTK is well documented, and what you are looking for
will probably be available from nltk.cluster. The site has
a free, downloadable book , and extensive documentation.
See, e.g., http://www.opendocs.net/nltk/0.9.5/api/nltk.cluster-module.html

If you are willing to go away from Python, there are various
options, such as:
* Carrot 2: http://search.carrot2.org/stable/search
* Mahout: http://lucene.apache.org/mahout/

You can also do this by utilizing the entity extraction/categorization
provided by
online Linked-data/clustering providers. One such service is OpenCalais
provided by Thomson-Reuters.

I had played around with Calais one year back and found it very useful
to learn about Linked-data and entity extraction.

In fact, there is an already existing news clustering service written
on top of OpenCalais.

http://www.opencalais.com/applications/interceder

Klezio.com was also a very good example of this, but now it seems
to be down.

In fact I cooked up an application to pull out the cost of mobile
phones using Opencalais and demoed it in a BangPypers meeting
some time back, here is an archive of it.

Image quality of what ?

        - Images embedded in PDF files ?
        - Raster images saved as PDF files ?

If it is PDF, you need a pdf library like pyPdf to open the pdf file
and extract images. Pull up the code and customize it yourself.

k-means. Or, you could manually select which are your classes. Then, you
need to train a
classifier<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_classification_%28machine_learning%29>which
will classify new articles into one of your classes.

For both these tasks, nltk provides very nice, pythonic tools. You can also
search for other pythonic machine learning toolkits. If you need to do
anything with natural language processing, though, nltk is well worth your
time to learn. It has excellent documentation including a few books.

Hi All,

I want to change the IP of remote server.
I can do it manually using control panel. But i need to do that in a script.
So is there any simple API in python which can be used for the same?

You should be able to ssh into the machine and use ifconfig to change
it. I don't know how that will crap your existing connection so it might
be a good idea to simply run it as a shell pipeline. Why involve Python
for this at all?

If you _want_ to involve python, then take a look at func. With Func,
changing the machine IP is just one of the many sysadmin tasks you'll
be able to perform.

         please help me with code snippet if possible. What is best lists
comparing method to get items not present in working copy, present in
repository.

Hello Kenneth,

           I want to check all the files from working copy to repository if
files are missing from working copy and found in repository I need to delete
them.

           Ya SVN Status gives me files added, removed, I mentioned user
deletes files manually not using SVN delete. how should I check for deleted
files.

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.ref.svn.c.status.html

'!'  - Item is missing (e.g., you moved or deleted it without using
svn). This also indicates that a directory is incomplete (a checkout
or update was interrupted).

Seems to be similar to Fabric [http://fabfile.org] but limited to

Nothing Fedoraspecific apart form being hosted at a fedorahosted.
There are people using this on other platforms too.

There are other more popular tools which do similar stuff, though.
Some of these are Puppet and Chef (incidentally, both are written in
Ruby).

The last time I checked (and it was a long time ago), it needed physical
access to the repository file system (not just the checkout) to be able
to do anything. That makes it useless for the OPs needs.

@Shashidhar

             You mean the *svn delete* must work when you *svn update?. *Yes
we can do it. but its a tricky way. What I suggest is to create a
shell/python script named *svn *and put in higher path hierarchy (for
example /usr/local/bin). In side the script you code like if its ran with
argument other than *up* or *update* the run /usr/bin/svn <arguments>. if
the argument is *update* or *up* you have to do your tasks like checking for
the removed files in the working copy and /usr/bin/svn delete the files you
got , and then you can run /usr/bin/svn update inside the script. :)

That means write a script to override the existing svn command.. this may
work.. try it..

Note:- Every svn command you use in side the script must contain absolute
path other wise it will end up in a looping call

Hi all,
Can anyone please suggest some actively developed python WebDAV client
library ?
I did my preliminary search and found quite a few libraries almost all of
them are abandon ware.

Subject: [BangPypers] export methods from a python class as RESTful
	webservice calls
Message-ID: <BANLkTikCrAcRG_ft2A4P7sVKWNw4mAB_+g@mail.gmail.com>

Hello group,

I have used Django, Pylons for different projects before but i want
something minimal without overheads of MVC frameworks.

say I have something like

class X(object):
  ...

  def A(p1, p2,...):
      ....
      return {'state':x}

  def B(p1, p2,..):
      ....
      return {'state':y}

I want to expose calls to A and B over HTTP.

Assuming I do not want any more features, I was wondering is what would be
best/ efficient way to export methods A, B as RESTfull webservice calls.


thanks,
umar

You have quite a few options. 
1. Use the plain old SimpleHTTPServer module and write something to
   expose these calls. 
2. Use a microframework like web.py or flask. A complete flask or web.py
   app looks almost like the code you've pasted here. 
3. Use a framework explicitly meant for writing restful services
   (e.g. restish)

thanks noufal,

I can see i am spoiled with choices. Flask looks enticing ,
SimpleHTTPServer is not a bad idea either in my case (no external
dependency).

Message-ID: <87boxo7lbu.fsf@sanitarium.localdomain>



Hello everyone,
        We're still looking for sponsors for PyCon India 2011. 

        The details of the event are on the website
http://in.pycon.org. The summary is that it's in Pune on the 16, 17 and
18 of September of this year.

        If you know of any companies who might be interested, please
raise your hand! 

        All aspects of the conference are coordinated and conducted by
volunteers and members of the Indian Python community. It relies on all
of us to do our part to get it going. We had a decent run for 2
years. Let's make it happen again and keep it going.

Thanks.

Hi Noufal,

Is there a link on the site that shows the sponsor brackets etc. I
looked and couldn't find it - something like
http://rubyconf.org/sponsor would be nice.

Thanks,

Noufal,

May you let us know the following details

2. Who do you expect to attend the event from corporate?
3. Any specific event for sponsors?

Subject: [BangPypers] Uninstalling Python 2.6
Message-ID: <BANLkTimn8ObCNUSMAnmoxZE3WCbGGMbh_g@mail.gmail.com>

Hey Guys,

I want to remove Python 2.6 from my computer, or at least change the
default python to 2.5. When I try to remove Python 2.6 through the
package manager, it asks me if I want to remove about 200 other
things, which I don't want to do. Things that only support Python 2.5
(like vim.. etc) try to use python 2.6 instead of python 2.5 by
default, which screws things up. How do I fix this?

Note: I am trying with ubuntu-9.10(Karmic)

-Ganesh.

Did I learn something today? If not, I wasted it.

You won't be able to remove python-2.6 because of dependencies, but
you can install python-2.5 and make it the default by using the
`update-alternatives` command
(http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/karmic/man8/update-alternatives.8.html).

It would be something like (after installing python-2.5) -

# update-alternatives --config python

BG

Hmm, in that case, you might need to do something like this but YMMV -

# update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python2.6 1
# update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python2.5 10
# update-alternatives --config python

I would recommend that you read the update-alternatives manual page
before trying any of the above.

BG

Regarding the "clone" operation problem, I think its "pinax-admin
clone_project" (you missed underscore I guess between *clone* and *project*).
Its in the docs<http://pinaxproject.com/docs/0.7/install/#starting-a-new-pinax-project>

And regarding sqlite, I think you tried installing sqllite(with double el in
the spelling) and thats why bash errored telling you to type sqlite(single
el).

Did I answer your question ?

If you can print the error/exception details that would be helpful.

addition, one of the grants will cover up to $AUD500 of travel and
accommodation costs for a woman living outside of the Sydney region to
attend.

These grants aim to reduce the financial barriers to attending PyCon
AU 2011, by subsidising the registration and travel costs of people
from diverse groups, who contribute in important ways to the Python
community.

must additionally:
?* live further than 150 km from the conference venue.

(If you are unsure, please visit
?http://maps.google.com.au/maps/place?q=66+Goulburn+St,+Sydney,+NSW+2000
?and use the "Get Directions" link in the upper left-hand corner to
?calculate the driving distance from your place of residence to the venue.)

More information can be found at?http://pycon-au.org/2011/grants/

Award Amount
------------
Both selected grant recipients will receive a free Full registration
to PyCon AU (including a seat at the conference dinner on Saturday
night), worth $198.

In addition, the recipient of the travel and accommodation grant will
be reimbursed up to $500 in travel and accommodation costs.

Timeline
--------
Applications for the gender diversity delegates grants are open now,
and will close on **8th of July**. We will notify all successful
recipients of their award by **15th of July** so that you can have
ample time to complete your travel plans.

Message-ID: <CC0CC2862BF94D41A65DC4511A12B49328FD08E0@weaver.REZAYAT.NET>

Hi,


 I have a PDF document which consist of barcode characters. Now how can I retrieve that bar-coded value programmatically. When I googled I found a tool called Pypdf which provides a function called 'PdfFileReader'

To read the PDF file, but how can I read the barcode form the existing PDF. Any solution?

Not quite sure what you expect to extract here? The barcode is just
an image, so what exactly would you expect the output of this program
to be?

If you need to decode the barcode, there are a couple of open-source
packages to do that. One that I have used is libdmtx (
http://www.libdmtx.org/ ).
It is in C, though there seems to be a Python wrapper for it:

Another solution might be using zbar: http://zbar.sourceforge.net/


Zbar can be used for reading bar codes from various sources, such as video streams, image files and raw
intensity sensors (from: README)

It's python binding (python-zbar) can be installed directly using the apt-get.

Hope this helps.

Subject: [BangPypers] Python User Group International Survey
Message-ID: <BANLkTi=no1A9J31rS5vq2yrWi7V2yj8U1Q@mail.gmail.com>

The PSF is happy to launch today an international survey of Pythonuser
group organizers to help it better serve the large and ever-expanding
international Python user community.

The survey contains questions on user group organization, events,
demographics, and growth. There are some questions with numerical
answers, and while your best guess is fine, you may find it helpful to
gather some statistics on your user group membership before starting
the survey (example statistics include the number of active members
and the size and topics for recent user group events).

We expect this survey to take around 30 minutes to complete. We
appreciate your time and honesty in answering these questions.

The PSF blog post announcing the survey:
http://pyfound.blogspot.com/2011/06/tell-us-about-your-user-group.html

The survey was written by Jessica McKellar (http://jesstess.com),
organizer for the Boston Python Meetup
(http://meetup.bostonpython.com), and Jesse Noller
(http://jessenoller.com/), PSF board member and PyCon chair with input
and feedback from survey specialists and others.

https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/BWLG8SZ

The survey was pretested with a handful of user group organizers, and
their answers were phenomenal. Organizers have tons to say about these
topics, and we hope to get a lot of great, actionable data for
strengthening the relationship between the PSF and Python user groups
out of this effort.

Outreach, education, diversity and community building are critical for
Python as a community, and the Foundation - this data should greatly
assist in our targeting our resources and furthering the mission of
the Foundation in all ways.

Thank you

The Python Software Foundation

Hi,

I am trying to use reportlab(along with svglib) to draw a svg string into a
pdf, but so far have not been successful.
I can share the code for the same; but was wondering if anyone has any other
options for the same?

It was a fun hack in the morning : i wanted to export protovis charts as a
pdf.

Tried pycairo, but couldnt set it up right. Also, pisa wasnt working right.
Then tried with reportlab but of no avail. Then stumbled on svglib and made
it work on svgstring.
But something wasnt right, if i had multiple bars in a chart, the 0.5
version of svglib wasnt working right.
Had to break my head for sometime, but later stumbled on the latest version
of svglib, thats 0.6.3.
Things worked, but the scaling was screwed up. More looking around for
scaling/transform functions.
And finally it all worked seamlessly.

Will post this in github in a couple of days.

Not quite what you want, but after struggling with PIL, and other libraries
for some simple-to-moderately complex image processing, we have chosen
to simply use ImageMagick via popen. Imagemagick is fully featured, at least
as far as we are concerned. You could use it to convert SVG to PDF, and
scale the image in the process.

Gora

Problem statement : given a svg string, i want this to be
converted-to/embedded-in
pdf. The svg file should NOT be created on the file system.
(If the svg can *automatically* scale based on the width of the pdf, then
its awsum!)

What is the memory footprint of ImageMagick? I dont like to have truck load
of apps to get
something done. ReportLab is a known name in creating pdfs and its installed
almost
always, and svglib is just ONE single py file. But if ImageMagick is AWSUM,
then dont
mind giving it a try.

You must have mistaken me for someone willing to do your homework for you
for free. By all means, go with ReportLab if that meets your needs: I have
*no* particular need to push Imagemagick on to you.

Sigh!

Well, if i had asked you to do my homework, i wouldnt have  taken the
hassles of investigating
so much before posting. And wouldn't ask you pertinent Qs w.r.t what you
suggest.
If you namedrop, then substantiate it suitably - i.e, suggesting a package
should come with its own reasons,
and you should also be ready to take questions.

But nwayz, get a Ethics 101 course in the nearest school.

So, i spent some more time in investigating some issues with SVG to PDF
conversion
and it looks like that the text and opacity present in SVG cant be converted
to PDF 'directly'.

For eg. the last image on this page :
http://mbostock.github.com/protovis/docs/label.html
Using Reportlab and svglib, i see no opacity and also the text size doesnt
scale. But, i heard
from one more guy(who was using cairo) that he was getting the right opacity
but not the
right text size. I tried contacting the author of svglib for some support,
but looks like he is not maintaining
it anymore. I looked around the code of svglib and it looks like this can be
done, but i need to
investigate on how reportlab works with opacity.

My apologies: My tone was too snarky.

We use Imagemagick through the command-line interface, and our
demands are nowhere near high enough that I have had cause to
investigate memory usage. Also, forgot to mention that Imagemagick
does have Python bindings, but they are sadly incomplete. So, going
through the command-line via Popen seemed to be the best bet.

Sorry, disagree there, and am not sure what exactly you mean
by "namedropping". Also, I pointed out a solution to you, and
definitely do *not* feel that my obligations extend beyond that.
I am not sure where you derive that expectation from.

Gora

+1. 

A couple of side points. There is a PythonMagick which are bindings to
image magick - http://www.imagemagick.org/download/python/. They look
reasonably uptodate and I'd expect them to perform better than
suprocesses.

Hello Friends,

This is Off Topic and nothing related to Python in general...thought of
sending here since many industry veterans watch this list.

We would like to have a *good* business email vendor, and hosting for our
website.

Would like to know the ones you have found to be good in *India*.

Google Apps looks very attractive...but prices are high ($50/per account/per
year)...where as many Indian vendors provide 5-10 email addresses at much
lower price.

Any suggestions?

Thanks and best regards,
Vishal Sapre

Try mitsu.in  for a domain registration and host the website in appspot.
I find this combination to be the cheapest of all. I have always been
doing/using this combo.

Also, if the number of users is just going to be 5-10, then google
apps<http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/group/index.html>should be
good.

Hello Everyone,

Anyone knows any good package for spell checker/corrector in python ?
Something like google's did you mean functionality.

The best open-source spellchecker that I know of is aspell. Unfortunately,
only C bindings are available by default, but one can build Python bindings
with SWIG. We have done that already, though not yet put it together as
an open-source package. Please email me off-list if you are interested in
this.

> Something like google's did you mean functionality.

This is not the same thing as spellchecking. It is more like a recommendation
engine. Which one did you want? Can you provide some use cases?

Gora

Hi Gora,

Thanks for the quick reply. Basically I am looking for spell correction in
the sense if someone does a mistake in spelling.

Let say someone want to search "restaurant" and types the spelling wrong as
resturant or something. So that we can help him correct it.

Thanks,
Puneet

In that case, you definitely want a Python binding around aspell. Several
people have already suggested possibilities here. Try Enchant before
other things, as it allows one the possibility of using backends other
than aspell, such as hunspell, though at least last when I looked at it,
aspell was better, and supported better.

Gora

Enchant + edit distance will solve the problem . You can use
theedit_distance from nltk.metrocs

Not a library but probably something you should read.

Hi,

We have a project that's is to build a desktop application on top of Linux
using Python either using PyQT or wxPython.
We estimate around 15-20 hours of work for an experienced developer.

Apart from building a GUI, this would also mean writing code to recognize CD
Drives, removable disk and cards. Rest of the logic would be simple.

Interested. please get off the list, via email with me

Hello Jaganadh

                I already used pyenchant and implemented for German, French,
Italy, Czech, English languages.
                But I am also facing problem with special characters in the
German language i.e UMLAUTS. Its not giving me proper result for the German
special characters. It check a word and says its wrong.

               Do you have any idea about how to handle this exception?
               Thanks in advance.

Which function from Enahcnt dict you are using ".check(word)" or
".suggest(word)" ? .
I think the german special charcters problem may due to:
1) Either enchant may not be reading the dict file with proper encoding . I
am not sure about this . I will check and tell

This is an informational post only. I've been watching some of the
performance developments on PyPy, but this one made me feel real good.
Apparently PyPy is going to lose the GIL and implement locking via STM
