Efesto
A micro REST API meant to be used almost out of the box with other microservices.
It kickstarts you by providing a simple way to build a backend and expose it. Efesto uses PostgreSQL and JWTs for authentication.
Efesto follows the UNIX principle of doing one thing and well, leaving you the freedom of choice about other components (authentication, caching, rate-limiting, load balancer).
Installing
Install efesto, possibly in a virtual environment:
pip install efesto
Create a postgresql database and export the database url:
export DB_URL=postgres://postgres:postgres@localhost:5432/efesto
Export the jwt secret:
export JWT_SECRET=secret
Populate the db:
efesto install
Create an admin:
efesto create users tofu --superuser
Now you can start efesto, with either uwsgi or gunicorn:
gunicorn "efesto.App:App.run()"
Efesto should now be running:
curl http://localhost:8000/version

Docker
Docker images are available in the hub:
strangemachines/efesto:lateststrangemachines/efesto:2.3strangemachines/efesto:2.2strangemachines/efesto:2.1
Performance
Efesto performs at about 200 requests/second on a small digital ocean droplet, for requests that include JWT authentication, fetching data and printing out JSON.
You have seen 100k requests benchmarks, but don't be fooled: most benchmarks from authors are made so that their package comes to the top and do not reflect real conditions.
