Guestbook
*************
.. topic:: Introduction
This example shows how to create a simple guestbook application using
:doc:`../gateways/twisted` and the `Flex SDK`_.
A live demo can be found on the PyAMF blog_.
.. contents::
.. image:: images/guestbook-example.jpg
Download
========
Clone the PyAMF repository with:
.. code-block:: bash
git clone git://github.com/hydralabs/pyamf.git pyamf
cd doc/tutorials/examples/actionscript/guestbook
Alternatively, if you just want to have a look, you can browse_ the example online.
Database
========
**Note**: make sure you have Twisted_, MySQL-Python_ and MySQL_ installed.
This example uses a MySQL setup with a database called 'guestbook'. The `schema file`_
is included that you need to run on your database first.
The database host/username/password settings can be found in the `config file`_.
Gateway
=======
The remoting gateway for the Adobe Flash Player and other AMF clients starts on
http://localhost:8080 when you launch the `development server`_:
.. code-block:: bash
twistd -noy guestbook.tac
You should see something like:
.. code-block:: bash
2008-04-12 15:12:14+0200 [-] Log opened.
2008-04-12 15:12:14+0200 [-] twistd 8.0.1+r23300 (/usr/local/bin/python2.5 2.5.2) starting up
2008-04-12 15:12:14+0200 [-] reactor class: <class 'twisted.internet.selectreactor.SelectReactor'>
2008-04-12 15:12:14+0200 [-] twisted.web.server.Site starting on 8080
2008-04-12 15:12:14+0200 [-] Starting factory <twisted.web.server.Site instance at 0x12efb48>
Clients
=======
Flash Player
------------
You can simply open the `SWF file`_ and it will connect to http://localhost:8080.
Python
------
The Python AMF client can be started by running the following from the `python`
folder:
.. code-block:: bash
python client.py
Options
_______
When you run `python client.py --help` it will display the various options available
for this example client:
.. code-block:: bash
Usage: client.py [options]
Options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-p PORT, --port=PORT port number [default: 8000]
--host=HOST host address [default: localhost]
