mod_psp

18th March 2003

Sterling Hughes (recently blogrolled) has been working on mod_psp, a Python Server Pages module for Apache. He’s up to version 0.2.1 already. Stuart once told me that the toughest problem when embedding Python code in HTML is figuring out how to deal with indentation blocks—PSP appears to handle this by letting the indentation “leak” in to the HTML, which seems a bit of an ugly workaround. Still, if the module ends up being any where near as straight forward to install and use as PHP it could become a very useful tool.
