🚀 Quick Start

Django

import b4n1_boost
report = b4n1_boost.install_django()
# Appends DjangoBoostMiddleware to settings.MIDDLEWARE
# Report shows: {'framework': 'Django', 'middleware_installed': True, ...}

FastAPI

from fastapi import FastAPI
import b4n1_boost

app = FastAPI()
b4n1_boost.install_fastapi(app)

Flask

from flask import Flask
import b4n1_boost

app = Flask(__name__)
b4n1_boost.install_flask(app)

Auto-detection

import b4n1_boost
b4n1_boost.autoboost()  # Detects Django/FastAPI/Flask automatically

One-line install all middleware

import b4n1_boost
report = b4n1_boost.boost_all()
# Applies: compression + ETag + security headers + CORS + rate limiting + health check
# Returns: {'framework': 'Django', 'applied': ['compression', 'etag', ...], 'middleware_count': 6}

🔧 Features

JSON Serialization (10x faster)

from b4n1_boost import NativeJson, canonicalize_json, validate_json

# Fast JSON dumps (uses orjson when available, 10x faster)
result = NativeJson.dumps({"users": [...]})

# Direct PyO3 path (no intermediate conversion)
result = NativeJson.dumps_direct(data)

# Batch: serialize N objects in a single GIL acquire
results = NativeJson.batch_dumps([obj1, obj2, obj3])

# Canonicalize: sorted keys, compact form (accepts str or dict)
canonicalize_json({"z": 1, "a": 2})  # '{"a":2,"z":1}'

# Fast JSON validation
validate_json('{"valid": true}')  # True

Compression (28x faster, GIL-free)

from b4n1_boost import compress

compressed = compress(payload, "zstd")   # 28x faster than stdlib gzip
compressed = compress(payload, "brotli") # Best ratio
compressed = compress(payload, "gzip")   # 1.47x faster than stdlib

# Static file compression
from b4n1_boost import compress_static_file, compress_static_dir
compress_static_file("app/static/app.js", algorithm="zstd")
compress_static_dir("app/static/", algorithm="zstd")

Content-Type Aware Middleware

from b4n1_boost.middleware import B4N1BoostCompressionMiddleware

# Automatically skips: images, video, audio, fonts, archives, already-compressed
app.wsgi_app = B4N1BoostCompressionMiddleware(app.wsgi_app, min_size=1024)

# For FastAPI/ASGI (streaming support)
from b4n1_boost.middleware import FastAPIBoostCompressionMiddleware
app.add_middleware(FastAPIBoostCompressionMiddleware)

ETag / 304 Caching

from b4n1_boost.middleware import ETagMiddleware
app.wsgi_app = ETagMiddleware(app.wsgi_app)

Rate Limiting

from b4n1_boost.middleware import RateLimitMiddleware
app.wsgi_app = RateLimitMiddleware(app.wsgi_app, max_requests=100, window_seconds=60)

Security Headers

from b4n1_boost.middleware import SecurityHeadersMiddleware
app.wsgi_app = SecurityHeadersMiddleware(app.wsgi_app)
# Adds: X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, HSTS, X-XSS-Protection, etc.

CORS

from b4n1_boost.middleware import CORSMiddleware
app.wsgi_app = CORSMiddleware(app.wsgi_app, allow_origins=["https://example.com"])

Health Check

from b4n1_boost.middleware import HealthCheckMiddleware
app.wsgi_app = HealthCheckMiddleware(app.wsgi_app, path="/health")
# GET /health → 200 {"status": "ok"}

Cache Layer

from b4n1_boost.advanced import ResponseCache
from b4n1_boost.middleware import CacheMiddleware

cache = ResponseCache(max_size=1000, ttl_seconds=300)
app.wsgi_app = CacheMiddleware(app.wsgi_app, cache=cache)

Django ORM Accelerator

from b4n1_boost.django_accelerator import bulk_insert_native, FastModelMixin

# PostgreSQL COPY — 5-10x faster than Django ORM
bulk_insert_native(MyModel, [
    {"name": "Alice", "email": "alice@example.com"},
    {"name": "Bob", "email": "bob@example.com"},
])

DRF Serializer Accelerator

from b4n1_boost.drf_accelerator import fast_serialize, FastSerializerMixin

# queryset → JSON without DRF overhead (5-10x faster)
json_bytes = fast_serialize(queryset, fields=["id", "name", "email"])

# Mixin for existing serializers
class MySerializer(FastSerializerMixin, serializers.ModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        model = MyModel
        fields = ["id", "name"]

JWT Validation

from b4n1_boost.advanced import validate_jwt

# Rust-native HMAC-SHA256 (no PyJWT dependency required)
payload = validate_jwt(token, secret="my-secret", algorithm="HS256")

HTML/CSS/JS Minification

from b4n1_boost.advanced import minify_html, minify_css, minify_js

minified = minify_html("<html>  <body>  Hello  </body>  </html>")

HTML → Markdown (Agentic)

from b4n1_boost import html_to_markdown

markdown = html_to_markdown("<h1>Title</h1><p>Content with <b>bold</b></p>")
# → "# Title\n\nContent with **bold**"

Telemetry

from b4n1_boost import telemetry_init, capture_error, log_info, log_phase, flush

telemetry_init(dsn="https://...")
capture_error(Exception("something"), context={"user": "123"})
log_info("Request processed", phase="http")
flush()

Background Worker (zero-GIL)

from b4n1_boost import worker_compress, worker_decompress, worker_minify_html, worker_validate_jwt

# Heavy ops offloaded to background thread — no GIL contention
future = worker_compress(data, "zstd")
compressed = future.result()

🔍 Status & Diagnostics

import b4n1_boost
print(b4n1_boost.status())
# {'version': '0.3.5', 'native_extension': True, 'features': [...]}

# Run hardware benchmarks
report = b4n1_boost.run_benchmarks(iterations=100_000)

# Generate fresh HTML status report
# python3 generate_report.py --open
