| 1 | == !BluePrint for the S3 Framework == |
| 2 | |
| 3 | This area is to develop & enhance the S3 Framework wich is built on top of T2/Web2Py. |
| 4 | |
| 5 | Current framework features are documented here: [wiki:DeveloperGuidelinesSahana3Framework DeveloperGuidelinesSahana3Framework] |
| 6 | |
| 7 | === Sub-menus === |
| 8 | Currently the left-hand navbar has only 2 levels of hierarchy: Modules & Module Options[[BR]] |
| 9 | Some modules (e.g. DVI) need more.[[BR]] |
| 10 | This is also discussed in the [wiki:BluePrintCSS BluePrintCSS] |
| 11 | |
| 12 | === MVC Separation === |
| 13 | Whilst Web2Py is fundamentally an MVC framework, it makes it encourages pushing back as much as possible into the Controller, Model or even Module to gain the benefits of re-use of code & massively simplified prototyping. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | If we think this could become problematic then we could choose to avoid this. |
| 16 | |
| 17 | There is already support in the framework for this: |
| 18 | * [wiki:DeveloperGuidelinesCRUDManual Manual Forms] |
| 19 | * Form Field fragments: e.g. {{{views/form_name.html}}} |
| 20 | |
| 21 | Q: Is it worth developing a version of the [wiki:BluePrintREST RESTful controller] which uses Manual Forms instead of T2? |
