Basically, that is what we felt, and were lucky to find ILU. It doesn't
really give you an out-of-the-box solution, just the tools to make one.
Which is what we did, and connected it to httpd APIs to eliminate CGI.
The following is a sample published object, implemented in Python. As
you can see, most of the lines are HTML formatting:
import wwworb, ilu
ilu.CreateServer('wwworbsimple')
form='''<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="simple">
Input #1<INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="Input_1"><br>
Input #2<INPUT NAME="Input_2" TYPE="RADIO" VALUE="Value_1" CHECKED>Value
1
<INPUT NAME="Input_2" TYPE="RADIO" VALUE="Value_2">Value 2<br>
<INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" NAME="SubmitMethod" VALUE="Post Me!!">
<INPUT TYPE="RESET" VALUE="Reset Form"></FORM>'''
class SimpleNode(wwworb.Node):
ReturnString = '''<head><title>Parameter Display</title></head><body>
Here were the parameters to %s<br>
<dl>
<dt>data<dd>%s
<dt>http-info<dd>%s
%s
</dl>''' + form + '</body>'
def __init__(self,handle):
self.IluInstHandle = handle
self.IluPublish()
print 'Published %s' % self.IluSBH()
def Get(self,req): return wwworb.Response(self.ReturnString %
('GET',req.getData(),req.getHTTPInfo(),''))
def Post(self,req): return wwworb.Response(self.ReturnString %
('POST',req.getData(),req.getHTTPInfo(),req.getDataAsForm()))
SimpleNode('simple')
ilu.RunMainLoop()
