a.k.a. « Flask on steroids »

An opinionated Flask extension designed by and for web developers to reduce boilerplate code when working with Marshmallow, MongoDB and/or JSON.

Documentation: https://flask-stupe.readthedocs.io

Features

• Return any object type in views, and it will be coerced to a flask.Response

• Validate payloads through Marshmallow schemas

• Easily add JSON converters for any custom type

• Fetch all the blueprints from a whole module in one line

• Native ObjectId support for both Flask and Marshmallow

• Powerful configuration management

• Decorators to handle authentication, permissions, and pagination

• 100% coverage and no dependency

Install

$ pip install flask-stupe

Comparison

Here is a comparison of a bare Flask application and its equivalent Stupeflask version. They both rely on MongoDB, handle input and output in JSON, and allow to create a user and retrieve one or more.

Bare Flask

With Stupeflask

from bson import ObjectId from flask import abort, Flask, jsonify, request from marshmallow import Schema from marshmallow.fields import String from pymongo import MongoClient app = Flask(__name__) users = MongoClient().database.users class UserSchema(Schema): username = String(required=True) password = String() @app.route("/user", methods=["POST"]) def post_user(): json = request.get_json(force=True) validation_result = UserSchema().load(json) if validation_result.errors: abort(400, validation_result.errors) result = users.insert_one(validation_result.data) inserted_id = str(result.inserted_id) validation_result.data.update(_id=inserted_id) return jsonify(validation_result.data) @app.route("/user/<id>") def get_user(id): try: id = ObjectId(id) except ValueError: abort(404) user = users.find_one({"_id": id}) user["_id"] = str(user["_id"]) return jsonify(user) @app.route("/users") def get_users(): limit = request.args.get("limit", 100, type=int) skip = request.args.get("skip", 0, type=int) cursor = users.find().limit(limit).skip(skip) return jsonify(list(cursor))

from flask import request from flask_stupe import paginate, schema_required from flask_stupe.json import Stupeflask from marshmallow import Schema from marshmallow.fields import String from pymongo import MongoClient app = Stupeflask(__name__) users = MongoClient().database.users class UserSchema(Schema): username = String(required=True) password = String() @app.route("/user", methods=["POST"]) @schema_required(UserSchema()) def post_user(): result = users.insert_one(request.schema) request.schema.update(_id=result.inserted_id) return request.schema @app.route("/user/<ObjectId:id>") def get_user(id): return users.find_one({"_id": id}) @app.route("/users") @paginate(limit=100) def get_users(): return users.find()
