I was recently working with django's syndication framework, and noticed that it felt clunky in a lot of ways. For example, I can only access the request and the kwargs for the function during the get_object method; if I want to do anything more complicated with them - for example, say I want to limit the items returned based on a tag that's in a GET parameter - there's not much that I can do. (I've chosen to return a dictionary from get_object containing the actual object and any variables that I want to have passed around to all the different methods.)
It seems like this would be a great place to dogfood the new CBVs; they could bring a lot of elegance to the framework. (For example, the whole 'dynamic attribute' feature would be unnecessary.) This is obviously something that can be done as a third-party app first; I'm just curious whether this is something that (generally speaking) people would be interested in seeing. I tried checking the tracker and google for previous discussions about this, but didn't find anything. --Stephen -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
