fiole 0.4.1

The handy Python web framework.

fiole.py is a WSGI micro-framework with the following development constraints:

• Single file, no external dependency

• Provide enough features to build a web application with minimal effort

• Embed a compact template engine

• Keep the module reasonably small

Main features:

• Routing

• Methods GET/HEAD/POST/PUT/DELETE

• Error handlers

• File uploads

• Static files

• Fast template engine

• Secure cookies

Disclaimer: this framework is intentionally limited. If you need a robust and scalable solution, look elsewhere.

Example

from fiole import get, run_fiole


@get('/')
def index(request):
    return 'Hello World!'

run_fiole()

Thanks

Thank you to Daniel Lindsley (toastdriven) for itty, the itty-bitty web framework which helped me to kick-start the project.

Thank you to Andriy Kornatskyy (akorn) for his blazingly fast and elegant template library wheezy.template: it is the inspiration for the template engine of fiole.py.

The following projects were also a great source of ideas:

• Werkzeug (HTTPHeaders and EnvironHeaders datastructures)

• WebOb (parsing the Accept headers)

• Bottle (embedding a simple template engine)

• Jinja2 and Mako (common template engine syntax and features)
