Hello group,
I've been lurking and watching for a while. I need to change hats now and get some coding done. I'm an engineer/ sysadmin/ dev and a public university who's been willingly forced to be a sysadmin after years of C/C++ development.
I'll be on IRC in the evenings. I'm hoping to converse with some of you well-known folks (and others) so I can pick up speed w/ twisted/ python. I definitely want to do things "by the books" (w/ respect to twisted methodology.)
I seem to be a mere step or two away from clicking, but I'm thinking in circles at the transition between design and implementation. I need to decide how much to code from scratch, how much to borrow from twisted-related libraries, and how much is available from twisted itself. Please offer suggestion for which classes/ libraries to use (and avoid) and even project skeletons to start with.
Use Cases:
- Emacs fragment manager: sent & receive blocks of text to a twisted server from emacs. Sort by user, time, name.
-SSH command - line manager : send command strings to twisted server. Another fuzzy goal would be to have the commands run on other hosts by the twisted server.
-LDAP - user database authentication.
After implemeting those features, I expect to re-evaluate my skills and design so as to begin phase 2.
Feel free to make suggestions or wait for more pointed questions.
