Product Description

Product Description

This book covers the CherryPy library for Python web development from its history and installation through its main features and core concepts to its integration with Python and other products to construct, test, and deploy a sample photoblog application. The author Sylvain Hellegouarch is dedicated to the development of free software projects and has been coordinating and administrating the community efforts around the CherryPy project since 2004. The approach based on an example application introduces many other common Python libraries, providing transferable skills also relevant for non-web Python projects. This book is principally geared towards Python web developers, who are looking to add the power of the CherryPy library to their existing Python skillset. It assumes a good working knowledge of Python. Although the CherryPy toolkit is at the core of the book, many other common libraries are introduced.

2.0 out of 5 stars Tech writing is an art, this author ain't got the talent., 27 April 2009
CherryPy is a well-designed web application framework completely written in Python that certainly deserves its sizeable and growing popularity. Such applicution surely would benefit from an in-depth and well written reference.

Unfortunately this book is neither: although the author is closely involved in the ongoing development of CherryPy and comes across as a technically very knowledgable person, he is not a gifted writer. His language is stilted and concepts are introduced haphazardly. This results in a hard to read book aggravated by chapters that might be relevant on itself (like e.g. Testing or Object relational mappers) but that detract from the subject at hand. Even as a reference manual this book is no winner due to the poor index.

Unless you are addicted to paper you are probably better of browsing the CherryPy website.
