port manager for developing multiple local web apps
Project description
When you’re building several web apps simultaneously (increasingly common in the microservice age) it’s annoying to remember which app is on which port. plut (port lookup table) does it for you.
To install, run pip install plut. I think there’s also a tool called easy_install but I don’t know how to use that.
Usage
The point of plut is to remember what app is running where. plut does this by mapping names to ports. To get the port corresponding to a name, run:
import plut
port = plut.port('myservice') # returns an int
plut saves this inside ~/.plutfile. The next time you run plut.port, it’ll check if a port already exists and if so, give you that instead.
You can also do this from the command-line:
plut # lists all services plut rm <name> # remove a service plut <name> # get the port of a service
