Now we are going to implement a simple user authentication system. This tutorial will teach you how to use formencode to validate forms and CouchDB to store our user data. Let’s start by creating a new pylons project and some controllers. $ paster create -t pylons userdemo $ cd userdemo $ paster controller main $ paster controller auth Also, delete public/index. /2009/02/03/couchdb-and-pylons-getting-started/ Tue, 03 Feb 2009 18:25:33 +0000 /2009/02/03/couchdb-and-pylons-getting-started/ CouchDB is very cool(it’s built on erlang), and with Pylons, it is even cooler. Apache CouchDB is a distributed, fault-tolerant and schema-free document-oriented database accessible via a RESTful HTTP/JSON API. Normally a Pylons web application will use some sort of RDBMS for storing data and persistence – such as MySQL or PostgreSQL. I’ve decided to go a different route and integrate Pylons with CouchDB. Right now there is a Python library, couchdb-python, that will help us communicate with our CouchDB’s HTTP/JSON api. /2009/01/24/moostrax-will-return./ Sat, 24 Jan 2009 22:21:50 +0000 /2009/01/24/moostrax-will-return./ Yes, I recently made a post saying that MoosTrax will be going away forever. Due to all the comments and feedback, it is obvious to me that there are many people that enjoyed the service – so I’m going to bring it back. I’m moving my database backend from CouchDB to MySQL, so my issues with CouchDB won’t prevent me from providing MoosTrax. I have been working a lot on migrating the site and fixing it up…so I really hope to have it up in the next week or so. /2009/01/20/hasta-la-vista-moostrax./ Tue, 20 Jan 2009 16:42:56 +0000 /2009/01/20/hasta-la-vista-moostrax./ UPDATE 01/21/09: Okay, okay. A lot of you seem to like the site...I'm going to bring it back. Moving back to MySQL though. Stay tuned. Well, it was a fun while it lasted. Unfortunately, I’ve decided to close the doors of MoosTrax permanently. It started with BlackBerryTracker.com, which I had set up in Fall of 2007, to provide a site to track BlackBerry GPS-enabled devices. Prior to starting the site I had got my first BlackBerry, the 8800, and also my first GPS enabled phone.
