A package designed to ease building HTTP REST APIs out-of-the-box, suitable for interactive environments like Jupyter Lab
Project description
Flasked
Flasked is an advanced Flask extension that brings unparalleled flexibility and ease to REST API development with Flask, particularly shining in dynamic environments like Jupyter notebooks. It empowers developers to dynamically manage routes without the need for server restarts, supports background server execution for seamless interactive development, and maintains compatibility with WSGI servers like Gunicorn for production deployments.
Key Features
-
Dynamic Route Management: Flasked allows for the dynamic addition, modification, and deletion of routes in real-time, eliminating the need for server restarts and enhancing the development workflow.
-
Background Server Execution: Designed with interactive environments in mind, Flasked can run the server in the background, making it a perfect match for Jupyter notebooks and similar setups.
-
WSGI Compatibility: While Flasked excels in development and testing environments, it is also fully compatible with WSGI servers, ensuring a smooth transition from development to production.
