Is it possible to use Django with Qooxdoo framework?

Guys i would like to use Django as my backend framework and qooxdoo as the frontend framework.

Is it practical to do this?

Has anyone tried to do this?

How did 开发者_JAVA百科they do it?

Links and pointers would nice.

I have no direct experience using Django and qooxdoo, but the general answer to the question "Is it practical?" is: yes :). Although Django's default rendering behaviour is to produce HTML (which is unsuitable for a single page application like the ones you build with qooxdoo), it's easy to switch to returning e.g. Json on requests, which is a common format for the client-server communication between a qooxdoo frontend and a server. They just exchange data.

Has anyone tried to do this? - Yes, but they don't give much information on how, other than the before mentioned Json data exchange, implementing a Json RPC server in Django using RPC4Django.

AFAIK, there is no deeper Django integration, e.g. interfacing qooxdoo with Django views on the server (like dojango).

Hope this helps.

Update:

• There is one elaborate product, Sava, using qooxdoo for the frontend and Django for the backend. There is a short overview, but I think it's closed-source so it only testifies to the "practicality" of using this technology stack. You probably won't learn in detail how it is realized.
• There is also enre, a qooxdoo-based GUI for Django. But I'm not familiar with it, and couldn't find any documentation on first glance, so I'm not sure what this really means.
