Miniagent

Miniagent is a multi-adaptable and lightweight server framework based on Flask.

Installing

$ pip install -U miniagent

Advised Virtual Environment Install

Virtual env is highly advisable because the more projects you have, the more likely it is that you will be working with different versions of Python itself, or at least different versions of Python libraries.

$ pip install virtualenv

Next create a virtualenv:

$ virtualenv venv
New python executable in venv/bin/python
Installing distribute............done.
$ . venv/bin/activate
(venv)$

Now install miniagent on the virtual env, it will install all the dependencies and these will be isolated from your system’s python packages

(venv)$ pip install miniagent

Sample code download

Create an sample project after installing miniagent

$ mini-project tanminkwan/banking-poc /
