funcportal 0.1.0

Serve Python functions as web APIs

funcportal runs your Python functions as a web API, with no code changes required.

Usage

Given a Python module like code.py below:

# code.py
def address(name):
    """Get someone's address."""
    if name == 'Jane':
        return '1 Main Street'
    elif name == 'John':
        return '2 Alternative Avenue'
    else:
        return None

You can serve the function address() as a web API with funcportal on the command line:

$ funcportal code:address

and you can then make HTTP POST requests to it, for example with the Python requests library:

import requests
response = requests.post(
    'http://localhost:5000/address',
    json={'name': 'Jane'}
)
address = response.json()['result']
