Create an HTTP Server for Administration #14

Open anlumo opened 11 years ago

anlumo commented 11 years ago

Users have to be able to create and administer (modify and close) projects. They are only allowed to access their own projects.

For this, we need a web interface. The django Qt port we are using for the database abstraction also comes with an HTTP server we can use for this task. Keeping everything in Qt allows us to use the same database abstraction layer and data structures for the whole project.

Using this infrastructure, implement a web server that can serve generic HTML/CSS/JS pages and images, and implements a JSON-based REST API so the web interface can display and modify the data stored on the server.

This part also has to be audited for potential security issues.
