Mixing Python web platforms PHP, e.g. - Mediawiki, Wordpress, etc

Is anyone developing application integrated with Mediawiki - using Django or other Python web development platforms using mod_wsgi?

Would be very interested to find out what has been done in this direction and maybe there is some code available for re-use. (I've started creating wiki extensions working with MW database in python whose output is injected via Apache's include virtual directive. it works ok, but a bit slow so far - maybe I can optimize it though)

Basically I would like to have certain parts of displ开发者_如何学Cayed wiki pages be prepared with python.

Has anyone reproduced common MW skins in python templates?

edit: found this nice video showing how PyCon site does just that (not with MW though) - using custom template loader

Thanks.

There are so many different ways to do this.

• You can make a mediawiki skin that uses iframes and inserts things from a Python server.
• You can write a python app that accesses mediawikis data somehow and outputs it.
• You can put a Python server in front that extracts the content from mediawiki and put's it into a page that is otherwise generated from Python.
• You can use deliverence to skin mediawiki, and use it's pyref functionality to call pythonscripts and insert that into the skin (I think, I haven't done that myself).

Which way is best for you completely depends.

Can't you use Mediawiki HTTP based API? Loose coupling is great.
