getting text from webpage that has embedded flash
HI, Im trying to parse a bands myspace page and get the total number of plays for their songs. e.g. http://www.myspace.com/mybloodyvalentine The problem is that I cannot use urllib2 as the "Total plays" string does not appear in the page source. Any idea of ways around this? Thanks, O -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: pypi mirror
Hi Sławek, You could also do a local or private egg repository. I documented how I did this for my internal projects here: http://www.sourceweaver.com/posts/private-python-egg-repository I hadn't come across z3c.pymirror before.

nozama-cloudsearch-service a local Amazon CloudSearch instance.
Hello, Have you ever wanted to test your app against a dev version of your production CloudSearch? Is management saying budget constraints won't allow this? Then Nozama CloudSearch is for you. It is a light weight implementation of Amazon's CloudSearch service you can run locally. Its has additional REST API features which allow inspection of data in a way not available via Amazon CloudSearch. It is BSD licensed and available now from pypi https://pypi.python.org/pypi/nozama-cloudsearch-service: easy_install nozama-cloudsearch-service Or from source code checkout from github here: * https://github.com/oisinmulvihill/nozama-cloudsearch It also has documentation which it self hosts or can be seen on readthedocs: * https://nozama-cloudsearch.readthedocs.org/en/latest/index.html I've implemented batch uploading and I'm working on search at present. I thought I'd get this out early in case others are hitting against this. I'd welcome contributions. I don't intend this to be a replacement for Amazon CloudSearch. Its a helper service I use it as part of a vagrant+puppet provisioned developer environment. This emulates our production environment locally.

nozama-cloudsearch-service 1.1.2: a local Amazon CloudSearch using ElasticSearch as its backend.
Hello, Have you ever wanted to test your app against a dev version of your production CloudSearch? Is management saying budget constraints won't allow this? Then Nozama CloudSearch is for you. It is a light weight implementation of Amazon's CloudSearch service you can run locally. Its has additional REST API features which allow inspection of data in a way not available via Amazon CloudSearch. Nozama is also a way to migrate from Amazon CloudSearch to ElasticSearch. Version 1.1.2 This now supports text searching and uses ElasticSearch as it backend. Facets are not yet supported. I use MongoDB to store the results of batch upload runs. This will change in future as I believe I can use ElasticSearch for this too. It is BSD licensed and available now from pypi https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ nozama-cloudsearch-service: easy_install nozama-cloudsearch-service Contributions are always welcome. Just fork me on github: * https://github.com/oisinmulvihill/nozama-cloudsearch It also has documentation which it self hosts or can be seen on readthedocs: * https://nozama-cloudsearch.readthedocs.org/en/latest/index.html All the best, Oisin -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
ann: servicestation - run your linux/mac services on windows without needing pywin...
Hi There, I gave a lightning talk about my ServiceStation project at Europython 2009. While it isn't written in Python (C++/Windows), I did write it with python in mind. Its released under the CDDL license. I'm hoping it will be of use to other Python users who will need to run their services on windows, but don't want to learn much/anything about windows service programming. The ServiceStation blurb is: ServiceStation allows you to run arbitrary programs as a service on the Windows platform. The program you wish to run does not need to be changed to allow it to work with ServiceStation or windows services. This project was developed with an eye to running Python web services on Windows, without the need to use and include Pywin32. This meant we could take services running on Linux/Mac and run them unmodified on Windows." If your interested in this check out the projects trac page for docs and download http://www.foldingsoftware.com/servicestation All the best, Oisin -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I may not have used the right google fu the day I decided to do this ;) So maybe it does all the following, however servicestation distingusihes itself by: * Properly tracking all child processes launched by the command it runs and closes them on stop/restart. * Monitoring the command its running and keeping it alive. * Allows you to set the description / name from the config file. * It logs useful information to the event viewer so you can see why it couldn't run the command under its care. * Can interact with the desktop or not so you can run programs with a gui but not actually see it. * Does not disconnect the service if you log-out as some runners do. Thats all I can think of. I should probably add this to this wiki too, Thanks for prompting me on this. Oisin -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
