What is PyAMS

PyAMS (Pyramid Application Management Suite) is a small suite of packages written for applications and content management with the Pyramid framework.

PyAMS is actually mainly used to manage web sites through content management applications (CMS, see PyAMS_content package), but many features are generic and can be used inside any kind of web application.

All PyAMS documentation is available on ReadTheDocs; source code is available on Gitlab and pushed to Github.

What is PyAMS_pagelet?

This package is a small rewrite of z3c.pagelet package for use with Pyramid and PyAMS.

PyAMS_template allows to separate a view’s Python code from it’s template implementation, so that this template can be easily overriden for a given context, layer or view; it also allows to separate a “content” template from a “layout” template which is handling all common elements in a web page.

PyAMS_pagelet is an implementation of this pattern: a pagelet is a Pyramid view registered with the name of the pagelet; the layout template can then just use a “${structure:provider:pagelet}” directive to automatically insert the pagelet matching the current browser URL.
