Web Programming in Python: Techniques for Integrating Linux, Apache and MySQL
by George K. Thiruvathukal, Thomas W. Christopher, John P. Shafaee Paperback: 450 pages Dimensions (in inches): 1.34 x 9.23 x 6.99 Publisher: Prentice Hall ISBN: 0130410659; 1st edition (October 15, 2001) Explains how to build production-quality web applications with Python and other open source technology. The opening chapters introduce the Python language, the Linux operating system, Apache web server and network configuration, CGI programming, and MySQL database essentials. The second half of the book describes template processing with the WriteProcessor, form processing with the WebForm module, and the Slither application development framework.Book News, Inc.®, Portland, OR Book Info: If you're ready to use Python and open source in a real production environment, this book delivers the techniques and code you're looking for. From the Back Cover: Enterprise-class open source Web development — step-by-step, start-to-finish! • Build production-quality Web applications with Python and open source technology • Includes in-depth coverage of Python's intrinsic support for CGI programming • Demonstrates efficient template processing using a powerful yet simple module known as the Write Processor • Contains complete tutorials on Python, Apache Web Server, and MySQL • Features start-to-finish Web application case studies based on Slither, a new Python-based portal application development platform Python is 100% enterprise ready, with powerful database, network, and Internet support. Now there's a book that shows you Python at work in a real enterprise environment. Web Programming in Python demonstrates exactly how to build robust, Web-based systems that integrate Python with three powerful open source technologies: Linux, Apache, and MySQL. Coverage includes all this, and more: • Self-contained Python tutorial: from the basics to advanced object-oriented and metaprogramming techniques • Fundamentals of Web development in Linux environments, covering file systems, processes, networking, and HTTP (the protocol of the web) • Network setup and Apache configuration, including the configuration of Secure Sockets Layer to support HTTPS • Python CGI programming: generating clean HTML code without unnecessary complexity and techniques for separating HTML from your business logic • An effective logging framework to support server-side debugging without using a debugger • MySQL: An immersive introduction to SQL and the book modules to integrate data access in your applications • Object-oriented techniques for form processing and powerful template processing using the Write Processor module In an extensive case study section, you'll discover the new open source Slither Application Development Framework, and use it to build two powerful collaboration and e-commerce applications. If you're ready to use Python and open source in a real production environment, one book delivers the techniques and code you're looking for: Web Programming in Python.

Christopher was formerly a professor at the Illinois Institute of Technology. Customer Reviews Reviewer: John R. Williams from San Francisco, CA One of the best books around on web programming. A must-read for any programmer trying to build e-commerce applications. Reviewer: frequent_flyer from Paris, Ille de France France I don't know of any better book for those who need a quick start on serious applications using the Linux platform. It was written from the trenches, by experts in the subject who are not afraid of getting their hands dirty. The authors demonstrate a deep understanding of the details and have managed to keep a practical perspective. I haven't tested the code examples (bugs?), but the framework is extremely easy to use and very clever. I wish more books on Business Management and new technologies were written like this... |
