Subject: [Web-SIG] Looking for a Python Ajax Middleware script
Message-ID: <688208.3519.qm@web26305.mail.ukl.yahoo.com>


























Has anyone?tried the following with Python? 
? 
1. Put a code into the script like Feedback.? The code is actually a data processing program/script, which runs about 1 or 2 minutes, generates a new file on the server for users to download. 
Or the code/script of data processing sits outside and can be called/fired off to run within something like the feedback.? It does the same thing as I stated above. 
? 
2.? While data processing is going on, there will be no data passed back from the server to clients.? How do we have a screen for end users to look at and telling them that data processing is going on??? Perhaps a cranking engine turning. 
? 
3.? Automated registration, authentication and session management?? Linking to registration and authentication is an automated process of allocating temporary folders for each user on the server? 
? 
Have you come across to these? 
? 
Frankly speaking, I am not a programmer, but got thrown into the situation. 
? 
I am using IIS 6.0 and Windows Server 2003.?? It can allow Microsoft's .NET service.? 
? 
I think that what ideally I need is a Python middleware script which manages the dynamic UI interfaces and data processing engines. 
? 
Your suggestions and recommendations will be deeply appreciated. 
? 
Sincerely, 
? 
David

Subject: [Web-SIG] Looking for a generic XMLrequest and data extraction
	script
Message-ID: <10243.28687.qm@web26304.mail.ukl.yahoo.com>

Hello,
?
I am also looking for a Python script to do the following:
?
Send an http request to a remote geodata server and read the data into our existing Python geoprocessing scripts.
?
Is there a generic script available so that I can customise it for the project in hand?
?
Sincerely,
?
David

It sounds like you could use zc.async: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zc.async/

>From the above page:

   The zc.async package provides an easy-to-use Python tool that
   schedules work persistently and reliably across multiple processes
   and machines.
