Remove Twisted web server
Twisted web server is not used anymore and has been superseded by
pyramid many years ago. Furthermore, our usage is not compatible with
Python 3. So we drop the "etwist" sub-package.
As a consequence, "all-in-one" configuration type gets dropped as it was
Twisted-specific. We resurrect it in cubicweb/pyramid/config.py by only
keeping options used by the "pyramid". Similarly, we introduce a
AllInOneCreateHandler in cubicweb/pyramid/pyramidctl.py that is
basically the one that lived in cubicweb/etwist/twctl.py and is used to
create the "all-in-one" instance. Added a TODO here about "pyramid.ini"
that could be generated at the end of bootstrap() method.
In cubicweb/devtools/httptest.py, CubicWebServerTC is now equivalent to
CubicWebWsgiTC and the latter is dropped.
=====================================================
|cubicweb| - The Semantic Web is a construction game!
=====================================================
|cubicweb| is a semantic web application framework, licensed under the LGPL,
that empowers developers to efficiently build web applications by reusing
components (called `cubes`) and following the well known object-oriented design
principles.
Main Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* an engine driven by the explicit :ref:`data model
<TutosBaseCustomizingTheApplicationDataModel>` of the application,
* a query language named :ref:`RQL <RQL>` similar to W3C's SPARQL,
* a :ref:`selection+view <TutosBaseCustomizingTheApplicationCustomViews>`
mechanism for semi-automatic XHTML/XML/JSON/text generation,
* a library of reusable :ref:`components <Cube>` (data model and views) that
fulfill common needs,
* the power and flexibility of the Python_ programming language,
* the reliability of SQL databases, LDAP directories, Subversion and Mercurial
for storage backends.
Built since 2000 from an R&D effort still continued, supporting 100,000s of
daily visits at some production sites, |cubicweb| is a proven end to end solution
for semantic web application development that promotes quality, reusability and
efficiency.
QuickStart
~~~~~~~~~~
The impatient developer will move right away to :ref:`SetUpEnv` then to :ref:`ConfigEnv`.
