Hi everyone, and thanks dbdweeb for breaking the silence!

This list has been set up for discussions around accessing YDN Web
Service APIs using Python, and to collect ideas and feedback around
the new Python Developer Center: http://developer.yahoo.com/python/

I'd like to extend the conversation to cover anything related to Web
Service programming with Python. Please feel free to share tips or
open up discussions about the most effective ways of parsing XML,
making HTTP requests or dealing with RSS feeds.

If you have any suggestions for the developer center itself, please
share them with the list or e-mail me directly.

Thanks,

Simon Willison

I'm in the first week of my Python REVIVAL.
How could I forget how beautiful it is to write code in such a great
language (uff! 10 years since my last real code written in Python)!!!
I've recently listened to an interview with Guido van Rossum laughing
about writing "Hello World" in Java.
Well, Guido is right! I mean, now I can take a 6 year old kid and say to
him  that he can "command" Python to write his name. (Hey, mr. Python!
I command you to >>>print "The little prince").
Sorry for the hyper enthusiasm, but I can't help it!

Hey, me too although I was learning python a while ago but had to take
a break whilst I picked up C# and .Net, but now I'm free and can
return to the glorious beauty that is Python, in the beutiful
surroundings that is Derbyshire, England.

If you want to get a project done, use python!

The Developer Center has a short list here:

http://developer.yahoo.com/python/#reference

If you've programmed before in another language, http://
diveintopython.org/ is excellent. If you're learning programming from
scratch you should check out http://www.ibiblio.org/obp/thinkCSpy/ .

Hope that helps,

Simon Willison

A decent cross platform IDE for Python (in general) is the
pydev plugin for Eclipse. You can find it at pydev.sourceforge.net. Of
course the prerequisite is that you install Eclipse (chances are,
you've already done that, right?)

Although it's not cross-platform, anyone lucky enough to be working on
OS/X just really needs TextMate (from macromates.com); it's simply the
best thing going. period. If you're a Windows user wScite is an
excellent choice.

Hi,
Does Yahoo BBAuth work for Y! groups?

I'm the developer/maintainer of bangpypers.org, the bangalore Python
users group.
We have our y! group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/bangpypers.

Instead of having the members to create a new account at
bangpypers.org, I would like to use yahoo SSO to authenticate them.

Is this possible currently?
If not, is somehing like this on the cards?

Regards,
Pradeep

I'm trying to send a request for term extraction from python using:
url='http://search.yahooapis.com/ContentAnalysisService/V1/termExtraction?appid=\
YahooDemo&query=madonna&context='
+ s

However, my string (s) can be quite big. Does anyone know of a
limitation of the string (context) size?

Cheers
Sharon

Hi João Paulo,

I didn't use the python-ldap API before, but I would give python-ldap
module a try:

http://python-ldap.sourceforge.net/

Hope that helps.

Hi everyone,

We're going to be moving this group to the new Yahoo! Developer Network
forums. This group will be closing at the end of March.

The forums will make it easier and faster to get answers, as you will
be able to search for answers from other related groups, too.

The new Python Development Forum is at:
http://developer.yahoo.net/forum/index.php?showforum=76

Please post all future questions and comments there!

Sincerely,

Robyn Tippins
Community Manager, YDN

This group is closed. In the future, please visit:
