gladius 0.1.1

Full-stack web apps in Python

gladius

Gladius aka "gladius" is a full-stack web framework facilitating web application development exclusively in pure Python, eliminating the need for HTML, CSS, or JavaScript. It is built for those who prefer to use Python, providing access to features typically found in modern web frameworks.

Gladius integrates basic HTML5 elements, TailwindCSS styling, and DaisyUI components, built on top of aiohttp, uvloop, and HTMX, allowing developers to concentrate on application logic and functionality, while the framework handles the UI/UX aspects. It also incorporates client-side routing typical of Single Page Applications (SPAs), promoting smoother transitions and increased interactivity.

In essence, gladius offers a simplified and cohesive development experience, making it a practical choice for developers seeking a Python-centric approach to both frontend and backend development.

Hello World

from random import randint

from gladius import Gladius, Component, EventRequest
from gladius.daisyui import DaisyUI

# glados daisyui
g = Gladius()
ui = DaisyUI(g)

# callbacks
async def hello_button_click(button: Component, req: EventRequest):
    hello_text.content = f'Hello {randint(0, 100)}'

async def world_button_click(button: Component, req: EventRequest):
    world_text.content = f'World {randint(0, 100)}'

# page
page = ui.Page(title='Hello world', class_='p-10')
page.add(vflex := ui.VFlex())

# top cards
vflex.add(card := ui.Card())
card.add(hello_text := ui.Text('Hello'))

vflex.add(card := ui.Card())
card.add(world_text := ui.Text('World'))

# buttons
vflex.add(hflex := ui.Flex())
hflex.add(join := ui.Join())
join.add(button := ui.Button(class_='btn btn-primary', onclick=hello_button_click).add('Hello'))
join.add(button := ui.Button(class_='btn btn-secondary', onclick=world_button_click).add('World'))

# router
g.route('/', page)
app = g.get_app()
