Buffet 0.9
This release includes a template composition feature provided by Bill Mill. In his words:
It would be nice to have a way to tell buffet to render multiple templates in sequence. For example, “return [(head, {}), (story, {}), (foot, {})]” Would render those three templates in order.
He provided a patch to support that feature, and it is now available for others to use. I love open source.
So … Buffet is at 0.9 now … it basically does everything that I originally intended for it to do (and more now). I have received lots of great feedback via email, on #cherrypy and in various mailing lists (thanks to all of you). So what’s going to make it 1.0?
Tests and profiling.
For both of those, I plan on making use of Robert Brewer’s excellent work in CherryPy. His test stuff is great. I have written a couple tests for CherryPy and it was pretty straight forward. For profiling, I am going to use CherryPy’s integrated profiler, but I am going to have to figure out how to profile a filter with it.
Anyhow, this is fun. Python is fun. CherryPy is fun. I have been making use of open source software for years now and it is cool to give back, even in a small way.

chris - hello. well JR and I have gone pro and split the cost of a hosting service. “siteground” is pretty cool, comes with fantastico and 12gb of hard drive space (a bit of an overkill.). anyways we are trying to run wordpress (and its auto install works great) but we are wanting to do something similar to what you are doing. a blog.gatheringinlight.com. i set mine up to redirect from gatheringinlight.com to the blog.gatheringinlight.com. next I installed wordpress into root/wordpress but can’t for the life of me figure out what files need to go into the blog-root in order to pick up on the core files in the wordpress folder. I don’t know if this makes sense or not but I read WP’s instructions on it, and I still can get it to work. Im wondering if you can help out? shoot me an email if you want to talk on the phone or if you know what files (and script) i need to do to get it to run let me know. thanks for your help. (basically i just didn’t want WP in my root directory, and I want to keep my main domain (gatheringinlight) open in case i ever want to make a home page). lata.

Well, the way I have mine setup for blog.dowski.com is with an Apache virtual host. I don’t know if you have that feature available to you on siteground. Send me an email if you have any specific questions though.
