NetJin - Simple Python Web Server Implementation

Overview

NetJin is a lightweight web server implemented in Python using sockets. It provides a simple implementation of the HTTP protocol, allowing users to build and run web applications with ease.

Features

• Routing: Easily define routes for different URLs and HTTP methods.
• Request Handling: Handle incoming HTTP requests and process them accordingly.
• Response Rendering: Render HTML templates for generating dynamic content and return other responses as well.
• Error Handling: Customizable error handling for managing HTTP errors.

Installation

You can install NetJin using pip:

pip install WebServer

Alternatively, you can clone or download the repository and include the NetJin file in your project directory.

Usage

1. Import the necessary classes:

   from WebServer import WebServer, Request, Response
   

2. Create an instance of the WebServer class:

   app = WebServer(debug=True)
   

3. Define routes using the @app.route() decorator, specifying the URL path and supported HTTP methods. For example:

   @app.route("/", methods=["GET"])
   def home(request: Request, response: response) -> None:
       return response.render("index") # This corresponse to index.html
   

4. Implement functions to handle each route, receiving Response and Request objects as parameters.

5. Run the server:

   if __name__ == "__main__":
       app.run()
   

Settings

To configure your project, create a file named Settings.py in a directory named Configurations at the root of your project. Define the required variables as needed. For example:

from pathlib import Path
from typing import List

__all__ = [
    "BASE_DIR",

    "HOST",
    "PORT",
    "DEBUG",
    "ALLOWED_HOST",

    "TEMPLATE_DIRS",
    "STATIC_DIRS",
    "PUBLIC_DIR",
    "MEDIA_DIR",
]

# Build paths inside the project like this: BASE_DIR / 'subdir'.
BASE_DIR = Path(__file__).resolve().parent.parent.parent.parent

# Turn off (False) for production.
DEBUG: bool = True

# Server Configuration
HOST: str = "127.0.0.1"
PORT: int = 8000
ALLOWED_HOST: List[str] = []

# Path to HTML files
TEMPLATE_DIRS: str | List[str] = "templates"  # BASE_DIR / "templates"
# Path to static folders (Directory for CSS, JS, Image, etc.)
STATIC_DIRS: List[str] = ["statics"]  # BASE_DIR / "statics"
# Path for public directory (where non-static files are located.)
PUBLIC_DIR: str = "public"
# Path where media files are stored.
MEDIA_DIR: str = "media"
