Codebase Documentation
========================
This chapter covers the libraries that GNU MediaGoblin uses as well as
various recipes for getting things done.
Software Stack
==============
* Project infrastructure
* `Python <http://python.org/>`_: the language we're using to write
this
* `Nose <http://somethingaboutorange.com/mrl/projects/nose/>`_:
for unit tests
* `buildout <http://www.buildout.org/>`_: for getting dependencies,
building a runtime environment, ...
* Data storage
* `MongoDB <http://www.mongodb.org/>`_: the document database backend
for storage
* Web application
* `Paste Deploy <http://pythonpaste.org/deploy/>`_ and
`Paste Script <http://pythonpaste.org/script/>`_: we'll use this for
configuring and launching the application
* `WebOb <http://pythonpaste.org/webob/>`_: nice abstraction layer
from HTTP requests, responses and WSGI bits
* `Routes <http://routes.groovie.org/>`_: for URL routing
* `Beaker <http://beaker.groovie.org/>`_: for handling sessions
* `Jinja2 <http://jinja.pocoo.org/docs/>`_: the templating engine
* `MongoKit <http://namlook.github.com/mongokit/>`_: the lightweight
ORM for MongoDB we're using which will make it easier to define
structures and all that
* `WTForms <http://wtforms.simplecodes.com/>`_: for handling,
validation, and abstraction from HTML forms
* `Celery <http://celeryproject.org/>`_: for task queuing (resizing
images, encoding video, ...)
