shrive 0.1.0

A Python package built with Rust using PyO3

Shrive

"...in slaughterhouses far beyond their ken. I shed no tear for those that die unshriven... For they are men. Just men. And what are men but chariots of wrath... by demons *driven."

Alan Moore is the greatest goddamn writer that ever graced the funny pages. Yeah, Gaiman, Morrison, Kiernan, Gillen, Spurrier - all good! All great! But Alan was something else. And that is to say nothing of his Blakean epic "Jerusalem", the post-hoc epitaph and exultation of his friend Steve "Unearthing" or the best representation of Tipheret put to paper "Snakes & Ladders".

What does this have to do with this guy:

Well... nothing, positively fuck all. But I couldn't think of a better name than "shrive" (y'know, I'm German, we use that root as the regular word for to write ("schreiben")), for extracting text from the Andrew Lang fairy books.

And I wanted that for a multi-stage web project. I want to have a folder that I can watchdog and then have individual files for file-based routing. I really like the Python watchdog and this gives me the perfect excuse to try PyO3 (I saw it on Developer Voices and thought "Ooh, neat!" in a Margin Simpson voice). And with this crate I hope to leverage the blazingly fast execution of Rust/PyO3 with the commodity of the Python watchdog.

After the watchdog, I'll see about what web framework would be best for serving the files.

Current contenders:

• Astro
• SvelteKit
• Zine
