🍵 Tea

Micro HTTP library with WebSocket support for Python.

Tea has Express.js-like syntax (which is web framework for JavaScript) with it's callback function syntax, Request, Response and URL objects. Got a lot of reference from popular web frameweorks like Flask, FastAPI and Express.js. Tea is like lightweight mix of their best features. Of course pretty good with WebSocket support.

Finally, the 418 I am a teapot code comes true. Enjoy!

Quick Start

$ pip install tea-web

Hello, World!

Simple Hello, World! example in Tea. See /examples for more example.

# app.py
from tea import Tea
app = Tea()
def handle_index(req, res):
    res.send("Hello, World!")
app.get("/", handle_index)
app.listen(port=8080)

Advantages of Tea

• Lightweight. No external requirement and the package cost is only ~10 KB.
• More control over the Request, Response and URL objects. This objects can be used outside the library structure.
• Easy to use and helpful on handling simple HTTP requests.
• Built-in WebSocket support.

Disadvantages of Tea

• Limited features and methods.
• No template engine.
• Callback function syntax is not really Pythonic without decorators. (Done on purpose but true.)
• Not sure if it's ready for production.
