The package license (AGPL3+) implicitly indicates the license of each
file. However, it is desirable to have license headers in each file.
This is the case for many prominent projects like GNU project, Mozilla
etc.
- There is no point in keeping this one single file as with different
license from the rest of the package. This change simplifies things.
- The file has been almost entirely been rewritten for Django, module
loading, CherryPy static directories etc.
- This change will be pushed with the consent of new authors: fonfon and
Me.
- Store users using Django user/group/permission model
- Database is data/plinth.sqlite3 instead of data/user.sqlite3
- Use Django auth context processors in templates
This commit is big because anything small breaks the code.
- Django dispatcher is based on regular expressions and does not need a tree structure
- Reduces a lot of unnecessary dependencies among modules
- Use Django sessions middlewear instead of CherryPy sessions
- Introduce dependency based modules instead of numeric load order
- Remove PagePlugin and simply use Django views
- Eliminate page rendering wrappers in favor of Django context processors
- Use custom auth for now until replaced by Django auth middlewear
- Use Django templated 404 and 500 error pages
