infrae.rest 1.0.1

Define a REST API to access and manage Zope 2 content

infrae.rest provide a simple way to write REST APIs in Zope 2.

API

infrae.rest provides mainly a base class REST which behave a lot like a Grok view:

from infrae.rest import REST

class MyAction(REST):
    """My action REST API.
    """

    def POST(self, name, value):
        # Called by POST /content/++rest++myaction&name=foo?value=bar
        return 'Success'

    def GET(self):
        # Called by GET /content/++rest++myaction
        values = self.context.something()
        return self.json_response(values)

You just have to grok your package to make it available.

• You can provide: POST, GET, HEAD, DELETE requests.

• You can use the directives grok.name, grok.require and grok.context to configure your REST API. They work exactly like on a grok.View.
