You might need to do this sometimes, tt’s as simple as this:

On Linux:

rm -rf `find . -name .svn`

On Windows

Create a .bat file (some name like: delete_svn.bat) at the root of the directory from where u want to delete all .svn subfolders

for /f “tokens=* delims=” %%i in (’dir /s /b /a:d *svn’) do (
rd /s /q “%%i”
)

I decided to try Google App Engine for a personal project, that pulls yahoo weather at a regular time interval, but as I dived into Google App Engine then this simple thing can not be done in cron jobs, so I started to think about the solution, here is what I came up with, just the idea:

- Create a Cronjob class to handle the cronjob: this class will do the all the tasks that need to be done regularly
- Use javascript at client side to refresh the Cronjob page at a regular time interval.

I think the idea is simple, it does solve the problem but require you to have the page opened all the time. Some of you may have better idea?

I’m quite new to Django, Pinax and mod_wsgi, so today i decided to try on Pinax with a Slackware 12.1 development box. Everytime I forget after doing something, so better to note it down here, easier for me to remind it later, official Pinax 0.5 has been out for few days, and it’s a good time to try it to see how it can replace my current home-made PHP CMS. I’m not very used to Django, so another chance to play with it, my experience with Python framework only stop at Skunkweb & Quixote.
