The Pylons web framework is designed for building web applications and sites in an easy and concise manner. They can range from as small as a single Python module, to a substantial directory layout for larger and more complex web applications.
Pylons comes with project templates that help boot-strap a new web application project, or you can start from scratch and set things up exactly as desired.
Example Hello World
from paste.httpserver import serve from pylons import Configurator, Response
- class Hello(object):
- def __init__(self, request):
- self.request = request
- def index(self):
- return Response(body="Hello World!")
- if __name__ == '__main__':
- config = Configurator() config.begin() config.add_handler('home', '/', handler=Hello, action='index') config.end() serve(config.make_wsgi_app(), host='0.0.0.0')
Core Features
- A framework to make writing web applications in Python easy
- Utilizes a minimalist, component-based philosophy that makes it easy to expand on
