olympus-framework 0.1.1

A Python web framework foundation inspired by Laravel's routing, middleware, and exception handling.

Olympus

Olympus is a Python web framework foundation inspired by the rich routing, middleware, and exception handling systems found in Laravel. It provides a clean, extensible base that you can build upon for full-stack applications, whether you're serving HTML, JSON-based APIs, or file downloads. With Olympus, you can define routes using decorators, group them, apply middlewares globally or at the route level, and handle exceptions elegantly.

🚀 Key Features

• Expressive Routing System: Define routes via decorators, including route groups, URL parameters, and multiple HTTP methods.
• Advanced Middleware Support: Apply middleware globally, per route, or per group. Handle pre- and post-request logic easily.
• Exception Handling & Custom 404: Gracefully handle errors and register custom exception handlers, including global 404 responses.
• HTTPS Enforcement: Force HTTPS globally or on specific routes/groups with a single middleware.
• CORS Integration: Easily add CORS headers to your responses, handle preflight requests.
• JSON, File, and HTML Responses: Return JSON APIs, serve files for download, or integrate a templating engine for HTML rendering.
• Group Prefixes & Middleware Inheritance: Organize routes into groups that share a prefix, middleware stack, or both.
• Extensible & Composable: Olympus is designed as a foundational layer. Plug in your own ORM, templating engine, or validation library.

🛠️ Getting Started

Step 1: Install Olympus

Install Olympus via pip:

pip install olympus-framework

(Ensure you have Python 3.8+ available.)

Step 2: Define Your First Route

Create a main.py:

from src.server import run_server
from src.routing.decorators import route
from src.routing.response import Response
from src.routing.router import Router
from src.exceptions_manager import ExceptionsManager
from src.routing.exceptions import HttpNotFoundException

router = Router.get_instance()
exceptions_manager = ExceptionsManager()
router.set_exceptions_manager(exceptions_manager)

def handle_not_found(exc, request):
    return Response(status=404, body="Page not found!")
exceptions_manager.register_handler(HttpNotFoundException, handle_not_found)

@route("/hello", methods=["GET"])
def hello_route(request):
    return {"message": "Hello from Olympus!"}

if __name__ == "__main__":
    run_server("0.0.0.0", 8000)

Now, open http://localhost:8000/hello in your browser.

Step 3: Use Middlewares

Add global or route-level middleware:

from altxria.olympus.routing.middleware import Middleware

class LoggingMiddleware(Middleware):
    def handle_pre(self, request):
        print(f"Received request at {request.path}")
        return None

router.use_global_middleware(LoggingMiddleware())

All incoming requests are now logged before being handled.

Step 4: Group Routes & Enforce HTTPS

from altxria.olympus.routing.decorators import group
from altxria.olympus.routing.middleware import HTTPSMiddleware

@group(prefix="/admin", middlewares=[HTTPSMiddleware(enforce=True)])
class AdminGroup:
    @route("/dashboard", methods=["GET"])
    def dashboard(self, request):
        return {"admin": "This area is protected by HTTPS"}

    @route("/settings", methods=["GET"])
    def settings(self, request):
        return {"settings": "admin config"}
