I've been doing some work for Charsheet recently, fixing old bugs and adding new features. I figured it was about time for a 1.0, so I tagged it and released it to the wild. Many thanks to oddshocks not only for the original 0.1 version of charsheet, but for continued assistance in massaging the site into something cool.

Notable Features

Character classes! You are now given a class based on your favorite language (by klocs [1]), and your top two stats on the page.
Fixing Github integration. This was technically fixed in August, but it was not finalized or pushed upstream until a few weeks ago. - Github backend switched from pygithub3 back to pygithub
Completely removed tw2 from the site [2]
Charsheet will now deploy on Openshift! - But not with a MySQL database. This is a known bug with knowledge.
Gnu-cat Will no longer stick around when the back button is pressed - Yes, it is actually called GNU-cat.
Fixed some incompatibilities with Pyramid 1.5

There's more, but that is the big stuff I'm seeing from the git log. In any case, the site is live, so just hop over to https://charsheet-qalthos.rhcloud.com and put in your Github, Ohloh, and/or Coderwall username(s) and see what your coder character sheet looks like!

[1]	Kilo-Lines Of Code, or a unit of 1000 lines of code for the uninitiated.

[2]	This bears some explanation, but it was just tw2.forms, and the forms were static, meaning they were quite underutilized. Forms are now pure HTML forms.

So the past two days have been madness trying to get the recently christened WebBotWar (or just WebBot) to actually work on the web.

We had it working locally some time last week (I think... the days are really starting to mush together), but OpenShift was a whole other thing …

Recently I've been playing with OpenShift, a new(ish) service from Red Hat as a sort of 'push to cloud' deployment strategy. It's interesting for people like me who can whip up a site quick, but don't necessarily have the framework in place to host it.

Due to my work …

I figured out the problem I was having with OpenShift.

To put it simply, I didn't pay enough attention.

For reference, when moving an existing TurboGears app to OpenShift, make sure you add the changes in config/app_cfg.py

As soon as I saw that, I felt really silly for …

After much work and many trials, I finally have an app pushed to OpenShift with no manual tweaking necessary. As often happens with these things, the solution was much simpler than expected.

Note: I still don't have a foolproof 'follow this' solution ready, as the one I built works exactly …
