The past October 9, I’ve presented pyxser at the JRSL’09 — Jornadas Regionales de Software Libre — event. The assistance to the event was relatively poor in quantity, but strong in quality. The presentation itself was a conversation and interactive presentation for a small group, with continuous questions and explanations on how to work with pyxser, and how pyxser works. I’ve decided to publish the pyxser paper, presentation and demos, plus an explanation on this article about the presentation.
The presentation was focused on the pyxser serialization model and the proper usage of pyxser to store configurations and WebServices. Among other serialization implementations, pyxser differs in the XML generated which do not creates many XML elements with different names as class names are present on the given object, instead it uses an object model.
The paper about pyxser which was used to postulate to the JRSL’09 event can be downloaded here. It was written in Spanish and has a abstract as follows:
Pyxser es un proyecto FOSS desarrollado por Daniel Molina Wegener como una investigación e iniciativa propias. Es una extensión Python que utiliza las rutinas de libxml2 para realizar tareas de serialización y deserialización de objetos Python. Pyxser utiliza un modelo de serialización definido en un esquema XML y también en una DTD. La definición de un modelo de serialización permite la validación de la estructura del objeto serializado. El modelo también permite empotrar objetos Python que están serializados en otros documentos XML, como por ejemplo, incluir la definición de objetos Python dentro de un WSDL para utilizarlo con Web Services.
The presentation, as the same as the paper, was written in LaTeX using LaTeX Beamer with the Berlin theme and can be downloaded here. I will upload both of them — the presentation slides and the paper — to my LinkedIn profile too and also, both of them will be available in the pyxser web page. Read with attention, and have fun ;)
