Nevow + Axiom = Fun
I’ve made a lot of progress with the photography website. I figured out how to make an admin interface that is password protected in Nevow using portals (which I have prior experience using in MV3D).
So now, I have a front page of the website that has the javascript slideshow on it, and an admin interface that allows you to modify which images get put in the slideshow and what order they’re in. It is pretty cool and works well though the admin interface is pretty simple. It lets you add photos by entering the url and display order. Then you can select them in a list and move them up/down or delete them.
My ultimate goal here is to allow Corey to upload photos to the app and then use PIL to resize them (and maybe even add a watermark if I get fancy). I’ll make a few sizes, but one will be slideshow sized so that he’ll be able to select any photos from his site to put on the slideshow.
My sister and Corey came by for the holiday, so I got a chance to talk to him more about what he wants out of the website.
Now, though, it’s MV3D time. And time to convert the terrain to use bodies.
