Toy

Express-like Python backend for beginners — MongoDB, JWT, WebSockets, nested file routing.

Default port: 313.

Install

pip install toypy

Create a project

mkdir my-api
cd my-api
toy make
python main.py

Or: toy run

Beginner style

Put this one line at the top of files you edit (main.py, routes, controllers):

from toy.injected import *  # framework wiring — you can ignore this line

db = connect_mongo()

use("/api", "routes/api.py")

@get("/health")
def health(req):
    return makeResponse(200, data={"ok": True})

app.run(host=settings.HOST, port=settings.PORT, reload=settings.RELOAD)

With RELOAD = True in settings.py, saving a file restarts the server automatically. Set RELOAD = False in production.

Nest routes up to 5 layers with use("/prefix", "file.py").
Attach controllers like Node: get("/", usersController.list).

See START_HERE.md and toy help first after toy make. Full docs in docs/.

Commands

toy make          # scaffold project
toy make --force  # overwrite scaffold files
