Orbited + Django dev daemon

2010-08-21 Websites

Today I got my Django project working with Orbited.

By creating a twisted proxy for Orbited and Django I am able to serve a development environment for both Django and Orbited plus the builtin MorbidQ message queue.

I am going to be using this to give live notifications of events that are happening on the system in realtime, and so it should be able to handle quite a large load. To do this I will use another queue in production, but I have found it needed to sort out the development environment first of course.

This daemon I have put up at GitHub .

It even serves the static files. Much thanks goes to the HotDot project for seeing how alot of this was done, but I have taken out the authentication and other bits to make it cleaner for general use.
