Will Django be included with Sage?

savecancel

There are currently no plans to include Django with Sage. Nobody has ever suggested doing so or brought it up on the list. I think Django is very "easy" to install using easy_install into Sage, though, e.g.,

sage -sh
easy_install django

Probably there is no need to include it with Sage.

I doubt that Sage will include Django just because http://ask.sagemath.org is a Django application. AskBot is not being shipped with Sage -- it has a lot of dependencies other than just Django.

However, it is fairly easy to install Django within the Sage environment. You can run

$ sage -sh
$ easy_install django

from the command line.
