[mod_python] Handlers "good practice" question

In this case its a mod_python handler, so it would be a replacement


>I mean, the default handlers are also a mechanism to go from web -> python code.

Yes all the default python handlers are a mechanism to gor from web to python code and are really fast.

>Also, based on the other responses, I definitely going to read the O'Reilly book about "Writing

I don't see why you should write modules in C and Perl to write a web application. ModPython offers
much more flexibility and power and ModPython *IS* an Apache C Module, your applications, IMHO should be written in a higher level language, and only if you really need very high performance, you could rewrite some of your application's modules in C.

To get to know mod_python I think you could begin to understand the Publisher handler and if you are more lazy then try PSP..

In any case if you will start a big project I strongly suggest you to use some MVC/templating library.
