Introducing blogcdb

Monday, December 22, 2008

I have created a new project at github.

It's blogcdb ( a blog engine that uses couchdb ).

The blog engine is made with turbogears 2, a very good python web framework.

Also uses dojo javascript framework for some fancy stuff. Dojo version 1.2.3 is included.

To store blog posts, comments and attachments , the erlang based couchdb document database engine is used.

Requirements:

couchdb-python module by Christopher Lenz and Jan Lenhardt.
python 2.6
turbogears 2 : trunk version which also needs a lot of modules.
dojo 1.2.3 ( included ).
couchdb ( svn truk version ) available from apache software foundation.
erlang/otp
mozilla's spidermonkey.

I have created a github project with the name couchdb-wxpython.


The project is a python script that uses:

wxpython ( a python module for GUI which is cross-platform. It is a wrapper for wxwidgets ).

couchdb , a document oriented database to store blogposts , comments and attachments.


The program can also take screenshots and store them as attachments into couchdb.
