Applipy HTTP

pip install applipy_http

Applipy HTTP is a library that implements an AppHandle that starts a HTTP server, using aiohttp.

Basic Usage

Applipy HTTP is designed to be used by declaring the HTTP servers in the application configuration file and registering APIs to those servers.

First, lets declare a couple of HTTP servers, one anonymous and one with name demo:

# dev.yaml

app:
  name: http-demo
  modules:
    - applipy_http.HttpModule

http.servers:
- host: 0.0.0.0
  port: 8080

- name: demo
  host: 0.0.0.0
  port: 8081

Running applipy with the configuration above will result in an application that exposes two HTTP servers: one at 0.0.0.0:8080 and the other at 0.0.0.0:8081.

We can now register APIs to those servers and endpoints to the APIs. We do that by implementing them and binding them in modules.

Example

First, lets declare an API that has an endpoint /hello that returns Hello World! on GET and register that API to the anonymous HTTP server:

# hello.py

from aiohttp import web
from applipy import Module
from applipy_http import Api, Context, Endpoint, HttpModule, PathFormatter
from applipy_inject import with_names


# Endpoint implementation
class HelloEndpoint(Endpoint):

    def __init__(self):
        self.name = 'World'

    # handler for HTTP method GET
    async def get(self, request: web.Request, context: Context) -> web.StreamResponse:
        return web.Response(body=f'Hello {self.name}!')

    # handler for HTTP method POST
    async def post(self, request: web.Request, context: Context) -> web.StreamResponse:
        self.name = await request.text()
        return web.Response(body='Success')

    # path of the endpoint
    def path(self) -> str:
        return '/hello'


class HelloModule(Module):

    def configure(self, bind, register):
        bind(Endpoint, HelloEndpoint, name='hello')
        bind(PathFormatter, name='hello')

        # here we register the API to the anonymous HTTP server
        # (name argument in bind() is not set)
        bind(with_names(Api, 'hello'))

    @classmethod
    def depends_on(cls):
        return HttpModule,

Next, lets declare a second API with an endpoint /bye that returns Good Bye! on GET and register it to the demo HTTP server:

# goodbye.py

from aiohttp import web
from applipy import Module
from applipy_http import Api, Context, Endpoint, HttpModule, PathFormatter
from applipy_inject import with_names


class GoodByeEndpoint(Endpoint):

    async def get(self, request: web.Request, context: Context) -> web.StreamResponse:
        return web.Response(body="Good Bye!")

    def path(self) -> str:
        return '/bye'


class GoodByeModule(Module):

    def configure(self, bind, register):
        bind(Endpoint, GoodByeEndpoint, name='bye')
        bind(PathFormatter, name='bye')

        # here we register the API to the `demo` HTTP server
        # (name argument in bind() is set to `demo`)
        bind(with_names(Api, 'bye'), name='demo')

    @classmethod
    def depends_on(cls):
        return HttpModule,

Finally, lets update the configuration file to include our modules:

# dev.yaml

app:
  name: http-demo
  modules:
  - hello.HelloModule
  - goodbye.GoodByeModule

logging.level: INFO

http.servers:
- host: 0.0.0.0
  port: 8080
- name: demo
  host: 0.0.0.0
  port: 8081

To test it just install applipy_http (and pyyaml, because the config is in YAML and not in JSON) and run the application:

pip install applipy_http pyyaml
applipy

The implemented endpoints should be available in:
