PyGTK Chart Widget
pygtkChart is a chart widget for GTK that offers line graphs and pie charts. It’s simple to use, but it is lacking one feature that I really wanted: bar charts. I added a bar chart widget to the package, but I have not been able to get in touch with the original author to contribute the code back. So, here it is.
Download: Clone from git://github.com/notmyname/pygtkChart.git or view the source at http://github.com/notmyname/pygtkChart/tree
Installation: $ python setup.py build && sudo python setup.py install
Description: I have added two new classes: BarChart and MultiBarChart. BarChart provides a simple bar chart. MultiBarChart allows for grouped bars. The code is fairly well commented and should be easy to follow.
These images are screenshots of bar_chart_test.py and multi_bar_chart_test.py, both found in bar_chart_test.tgz
UPDATE: a new version has been released

Quickly uploading data to Cloud Files

Cloud Files is a great way to store information, either to take advantage of the CDN or to offload the infrastructure requirements of storing large amounts of data. However Cloud Files is used, though, one still must upload the data to the service before being able to use it.
Uploading the data is not problematic if More >
Cloud Files Object Copy
about 3 months ago - No comments
Cloud Files does not currently support object copying. However, a simple workaround is to re-upload the file with the new name. Implementing this workaround may be inconvenient, and one may miss some things like ensuring that metadata is updated. I have added a copy feature to my fork of the python-cloudfiles API that takes care More >

Three tier python imports

Suppose you want to write a python module, and, like a good software developer, you want to keep a separation between your development, model/testing, and production versions of your code. This is a simple task with a few tricks in __init__.py.
First, our tester code:
1
2
3
import module
x = module.test.Klass()
print x.status()
module/_dev/test.py is similarly simple (the model and prod More >

Fantastic. The code is on git://github.com/notmyname/pypastry.git. Clone the repository and have fun. When you have some changes, submit a pull request, and I’ll take a look. Once you are on github, I can add you as a collaborator to the project.

Hi John!
I’m the original author ;-)
I like your bar chart extension. I did not have time to take a closer look at your code yet, but it looks great.
btw: you can contact me at any time by writing an email to sven@sven-festersen.de. If you did that I have to check my spam filter settings….
