Every WSGI app is better with a raptor.

Project description

https://github.com/ralphbean/raptorizemw/raw/master/raptorizemw/resources/raptor.png

Installation

You could install it yourself with pip:

$ pip install raptorizemw

Or you could add raptorizemw to the list of required packages in the setup.py file of your project.

Usage in TurboGears 2

Simply edit myapp/config/middleware.py and add the following to make_app(...):

# Wrap your base TurboGears 2 application with custom middleware here
import raptorizemw
app = raptorizemw.make_middleware(app)

Restart your app, but watch out for raptors!

Usage in Pyramid

Edit myapp/__init__.py and replace the return config.make_wsgi_app() line with the following:

import raptorizemw
app = config.make_wsgi_app()
app = raptorizemw.make_middleware(app)
return app

Usage in a PasteDeploy pipeline

You can also add raptors into your PasteDeploy pipeline like so:

[pipeline:main]
pipeline =
    raptorize
    my-app

[filter:raptorize]
use = egg:raptorizemw
enterOn = konami-code
delayTime = 3000
random_chance = 0.25
only_on_april_1st = True

[app:myapp]
...

Essentially, you’re able to specify raportizemw as a filter within your WSGI pipeline, and configure options accordingly as per the Configuration section below.

Configuration

make_middleware(...) and RaptorizeMiddleware.__init__(...) both take a number of configuration keywords:

  • enterOn can be one of two actions: ‘timer’ or ‘konami-code’. If ‘timer’ is specified, then the raptor is shown on page load. If ‘konami-code’, then the raptor is shown if the page-viewing user enters the sacred sequence. Default is ‘timer’.

  • delayTime must be an int and is the number of milliseconds until the raptor is shown. Default is 2000.

  • random_chance must be a float between 0.0 and 1.0 representing a ‘percent chance’ to load the raptor. A value of 1.0 means the raptor will be injected every time; a value of 0.0 means it will never be injected; a value of 0.5 will result in a 50% chance of raptors. Default is 1.0.

  • only_on_april_1st should be a bool value that will restrict raptors only to April Fool’s day. The configuration will coerce Boolean-like strings (such as t, true, y, yes, on and 1) into a suitable format if provided in this manner (such as through a text-based pipeline configuration). Default is False.

For example:

app = raptorizemw.make_middleware(
    app,
    enterOn='konami-code',
    delayTime=500,
    random_chance=0.5,
    only_on_april_1st=True
)

will result in 50% of pages loaded with raptors on April Fool’s Day only. These raptors will only be displayed if the user also enters the konami code, and quite quickly, after only a half a second.
