A simple but full-featured web framework in Python
Project description
Karrigell is a simple, lightweigth and full-python web framework, including a
web server and an SQL database (gadfly). All you have to do is download, unzip and
do "python Karrigell.py" : no configuration headaches. It allows execution of Python
scripts and of pages mixing Python and HTML (PHP-like) ; easy handling of
authentication and sessions ; dbStorage, a Python objects / database interface
working with gadfly or SQLite (take a class instance, open a database and do
database.write(object), no SQL syntax required) ; building pages from components.
Powerful post-mortem debugger with script listing, data browsing. Complete
documentation and many demos included
Version 2.0.3 includes many bug fixes and some new features :
** Bug fixes **
- add handling of urls without extensions in the debugger and Include
- in the name space, the field names with a leading undercore were not cleaned after
script execution !
- restore original sys.path after script execution (once a script named myScript.py
had been imported from a directory, it was impossible to import another myScript.py
from another directory)
- debug level could not be set to 0 !
- bug in update() method for objects in dbStorage
- error classes in gadflyStorage and sqliteStorage were not correctly set
- the query string of the caller url was not included in the qs generated by the
join() method for Components
- removed the cache mechanism in IncludeComponent : event if the script has not
changed, its output may have (search in a database for instance)
- when a script is cached, the query string attribute must be reset
** New features **
- in init file, in the "global" option of section "Server", specify Python scripts
which will be imported before each script execution (allowing for user-defined
values available for all scripts)
- better exception handling if parsing error in PIH scripts
- terrific database management demo ! (undocumented yet)
