This is the python source code of atpic.com (http://atpic.com) a phot sharing site that I use to test various technologies.
- wiki where photos can easily be intserted (extended reStructuredText format)
- a virtual filesystem used to make in-place uploads by FTP possible
- search with a rich syntax
- search supports CJK and Thai
- REST API: the site itself uses it
- API data in XML or JSON
- site uses a XSLT style sheet for the presentation layer
- dns based load balancing with custom dns server
- atpic.com for the API, atpicdata.com for the content
- CSRF and antidos protection
- WURFL based device identification
- python3 with several Ctypes drivers
- uwsgi with nginx
- elasticsearch for search
- powerdns
- pyparsing for search grammar
- redis
- virtualization (qemu) for the transformation layer. Look at the list of security bugs to convince you you should not run that in a non secured layer https://www.cvedetails.com/vulnerability-list/vendor_id-1749/Imagemagick.html
- ZeroMQ for message passing
- fuse
- xslt
- openssl
- docutils
- investigate replacing QEMU with docker containers
- need better scaling or clustering
- work on the presentation layer
- try a presentation with angular2
- work on usability
- populate the wiki with a good documentation
- document the API with swagger/OpenAPI Specification(OAS)
