Otto 1.0

WSGI-compliant HTTP publisher.

Overview

Otto is an HTTP publisher which uses a routes-like syntax to map URLs to code. It supports object traversal.

You can use the publisher to write web applications. It was designed with both small and large applications in mind. We have tried to incorporate elements of existing publishers to allow diverse and flexible application patterns while still being in concordance with the Zen Of Python.

Here’s a variation of a familiar theme:

#!/usr/bin/env python2.6

import otto
import webob
import wsgiref.simple_server

app = otto.Application()

@app.route("/*path/:name")
def hello_world(request, path=None, name=u'world'):
    return webob.Response(u"An %d-deep hello %s!" % (len(path), name))

wsgiref.simple_server.make_server('', 8080, app).serve_forever()
