"""An alternative Quixote demo. This version is contained in a single module and does not use PTL. The easiest way to run this demo is to use the simple HTTP server included with Quixote. For example: $ server/simple_server.py --factory quixote.demo.altdemo.create_publisher The server listens on localhost:8080 by default. Debug and error output will be sent to the terminal. If you have installed durus, you can run the same demo, except with persistent sessions stored in a durus database, by running: $ server/simple_server.py --factory quixote.demo.altdemo.create_durus_publisher """ from quixote import get_user, get_session, get_session_manager, get_field from quixote.directory import Directory from quixote.html import href, htmltext from quixote.publish import Publisher from quixote.session import Session, SessionManager from quixote.util import dump_request def format_page(title, content): request = htmltext( '

The session manager uses has_info() to know if it should hang on to a session object or not: if a session is "dirty", then it must be saved. This prevents saving sessions that don't need to be saved, which is especially important as a defensive measure against clients that don't handle cookies: without it, we might create and store a new session object for every request made by such clients. With has_info(), we create the new session object every time, but throw it away unsaved as soon as the request is complete. (Of course, if you write your session class such that has_info() always returns true after a request has been processed, you're back to the original problem -- and in fact, this class *has* been written that way, because num_requests is incremented on every request, which makes has_info() return true, which makes SessionManager always store the session object.
