iommi 0.1.0

iommi is a high level framework built on django

iommi is a django-based framework for even higher abstraction and faster development than django itself.

Major features:

• A system to project django model definitions into more high level definitions

• Forms <docs/forms>: view models, data validation, and parsing

• Queries <docs/queries>: filtering lists/query sets

• Tables <docs/tables>: view models for lists/query sets, html tables, and CSV reports

• Pages <docs/pages>: compose pages from parts like forms, tables and html fragments

All the components are written with the same philosophy of:

• Late binding

• Many layered customization

• Single point customization without needing to introduce entire chains of classes

• Prepackaged commonly used patterns (that can still be customized!)

• Declarative/programmatic hybrid API

• Everything has a name so can be referenced for customization

• Escape hatches included

Example:

def my_page(request):
    class MyPage(Page):
        foos = Table.from_model(model=Foo)
        bars = Table.from_model(model=Bar)

    return MyPage()

This creates a page with two tables, one for the model Foo and one for the model Bar.
