Starfyre ⭐🔥

Introduction:

Starfyre is a library that allows you to build reactive frontends using only Python. With Starfyre, you can create interactive, real-time applications with minimal effort. Simply define your frontend as a collection of observables and reactive functions, and let Starfyre handle the rest.

📦 Installation:

pip install starfyre

A sample project is hosted on GitHub.

🚀 Sample App

To create an application

python3 -m starfyre --create="my-app"

my-app/src/__init__.fyre

from .parent import parent
from .store import store

def mocked_request():
  return "fetched on the server"


async def handle_on_click(e):
  alert("click rendered on client")
  if 1==1:
    print("Hello world")

  current_value = get_parent_signal()
  set_parent_signal(current_value + 1)
  a = await fetch('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/todos/1')
  print(await a.text())
  print("handles on click")
  

<style>
  body {
    background-color: red;
  }
</style>

<pyxide>
  <store>
    <parent hello='world'>
        <span onclick={handle_on_click}>
          {[ mocked_request() for i in range(4)]}
        </span>
    </parent>
  </store>
</pyxide>


<script>
// this is the optional section 
// for third party scripts and custom js

⚙️ Developing Locally

Python version 3.10

  1. Fork this repo
  2. Clone this repo - git clone https://github.com/sparckles/starfyre
  3. Go in to the starfyre directory - cd starfyre
  4. Download poetry curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org/ | python3 -
  5. Install the dependencies poetry install
  6. Activate poetry virtual environment poetry shell
  7. Run the script ./build.sh. This command will run the build process in starfyre against the test application in test-application directory.
  • The build.sh file is a simple script that runs two commands sequentially.
    • python -m starfyre --build=True --path="test_application/"
      • The path variable here is the path to our application.
      • The build directory is basically a python package that contains all the compiled files. We use the --build flag to run that package.
  1. You can find a small test application in the test_application directory.
  2. Navigate to cd test_application/dist.
  3. Open index.html in your browser to see the output.
