Hi .. somewhat of a noob here to web programming. Just getting my feet wet in python. I wanted to implement web hooks in python. Both at server end and client end. Is there any particular library for implementing web hooks? Or does django or twisted python handle this?

A:
You should probably mention that "web hooks" is a specific concept -- as explained at webhooks.org -- to avoid getting generic answers about the web, as I see you already have. It's hardly a popular or widespread concept, so the answerers' utter confusion is not surprising but easily predictable.
On your question, I know of Hookah (from the webhooks.org site) and durian (web hooks for Django). There are specific ones, such as TracWebHooks for adding web hooks to the issue tracking service Trac, but I gather you're looking for something more general.

My apologies .. I should have clarified the term Webhooks as given by you. I just peeked into the sites for Hookah and Durian. Both seem to be in alpha stage, but it seems that Hookah is aiming to be more comprehensive. So it seems, Hookah might be the answer for me. Thanks.
