Django Panpub

Warning: early-stage dev

Panpub, from pan ("all, of everything") and publishing. A Django publishing app providing united streamlined outputs from centralised normalised inputs, with an embedded system of claims regarding each content and role (creator, curator, mediator).

Directions

  • Medium openness: widely-used media - writing, picture, audio and video - with outside link as a fall-back option
  • Access first: various commonly-used formats for import and export
  • Living culture: claims of participation (whether as creator, curator or mediator) available for each unique content
  • Batteries included: delicious base of models, decorators and templatetags, with its standard topping of views, forms, urls and templates for reuse

Achieved features

  • Panpub ecosystem: claim system, corpus creation, system-wide exporting, search system (django-filter)
  • Text model: use of pandoc as the middleman, upload and download

Requirements

  • Python3
  • Django
  • pandoc

Ecosystem

  • models: Corpus, Content, Crafter, Claim
  • decorators: has_any_claim, has_creator_claim, has_curator_claim, has_mediator_claim
  • templatetags: crafterworks
  • utils: panpub_export

Writing

  • main class: Text
  • inputs: .md (pandoc-standard or github-flavored), .latex, .docx, .odt, .html, .rst, native Haskell
  • in-house: markdown (pandoc-standard)
  • ouputs: .md (pandoc-standard or github-flavored), .html, .docx, .epub, .odt
  • templatetags: craftertexts

Spoilers

  • Text medium: fixing integration of xetex and adding .pdf to the outputs, extending .md and .latex plugins
  • Picture medium: Pillow-fed input, with opt-in EXIF-cleaner and LSB-smoother (a.k.a. anti-steganography)
  • Dataset medium: Tablib-fed input
  • pandoc auto-installation
  • and even more !
