pyojo

Web framework to create Dojo apps.

Project description

About 'pyojo' app development
-----------------------------

This is yet another framework to help develop web applicattions
with python. The difference is that it is oriented to create
applications with The Dojo Toolkit, trying to facilitate a set
of wrappers to generate the javascript sent to the client and
providing help to work with the AMD loader.

Pyojo provides decorators to set up the route map and assign
some functions or classes to certain URLs, but it also can be
used creating python modules in a folder structure, where the
name of the module defines the content type, and the returned
value of a function named GET, POST, PUT or DELETE is the
response.

The minimal "Hello World":

import pyojo
from pyojo import server

@pyojo.route("/")
def Home():
return "Hello World!"

server.main()

A basic example with javascript:

import pyojo

#Redirect to index.html
@pyojo.route("/")
def Home(request):
return request.static("index.html")

And then a couple of modules at ./srv (the default folder) will
handle this request:

srv/index_html.py:

def GET(request):
return '''<html>
<body><script src='main.js'></body>
</html>'''

srv/main_js.py:

def GET(request):
return "alert('Hello World!');"

But the real power is in the pyojo.js modules, offering a set
of code generation utilities for your Dojo application.
