weppy is a full-stack python framework that includes everything needed to easily create fast, scalable and secure web applications. It takes some components from web2py and has a syntax inspired to Flask.
The aim of weppy is to be clearly understandable, easy to be learnt and to be used, in order to let you completely focus on your product's features:
@app.route()
@service.json
@requires(auth.is_logged_in, otherwise=not_authorized)
def todos():
page = request.params.page or 1
return {'todos': auth.user.todos.select(paginate=page)}
def not_authorized:
response.status = 401
return {'error': 'not authorized'}You can install weppy using pip:
pip install weppy
The documentation is available at http://weppy.org/docs. The sources are available under the docs folder.
The "bloggy" example described in the Tutorial is available under the examples folder. While we're still populating this folder with more examples, you can take a look also at H-Funding, which can give you a deepen view on weppy's features.
Some benchmarks including weppy were published by Kirill Klenov who tested several frameworks with Python 3.
This is an extract from the results for a simple JSON serialization:
| framework | req/s | ms/req | performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| weppy | 10853 | 18.46 | 2.5x |
| flask | 6831 | 29.38 | 1.6x |
| django | 4330 | 46.61 | 1x |
weppy is currently released in beta stage. What does it mean?
