a django based miniframework, inspired by sinatra
Project description
What is it?
Django is awesome, but starting a new project in it is a pain. importd is inspired from ruby’s sinatra. Hello world django project:
from importd import d
d(DEBUG=True)
@d("/")
def idx(request):
return "index.html"
@d("/post/<int:post_id>/")
def post(request, post_id):
return "post.html", {"post_id": post_id}
if __name__ == "__main__":
d.main()
To run it:
$ python foo.py
This will start the debug server.
To run it in production:
$ gunicorn foo:d
Some examples: https://github.com/amitu/importd/tree/master/examples
Backward Incompatibility Change
d.main() used to be not required, now it is.
Features
fully compatible with django
supports smarturls
most of regularly used django functions and classes available in d. namespace, eg d.HttpResponse, d.render_to_response, d.get_object_or_404 etc
automatically maps “templates” folder in foo.py directory to serve templates
automatically maps “static” folder in foo.py to serve static content
management commands still available: $ python foo.py shell
wsgi compliant
gunicorn support
works seamlessly with fhurl (http://packages.python.org/fhurl/)
