yafowil.webob 1.1

Introduction
============

This is the WebOb integration for YAFOWIL.

This package registers a global preprocessor for yafowil. It wraps the any WebOb
BaseRequest derived request instance.

Special behaviors:

- All WebOb params - available at WebObs request in a so called ``MultiDict`` - are
returned in MultiDicts ``mixed`` flavor. This is how Yafowil expects them.
IOW: If a query-key exists several times the values are aggregated in a list.
If a query-key exists one time, the value is returned as string.

- File Uploads provided by WebOb as ``cgi.FieldStorage`` objects are turned into
Dicts with the keys:

file
file-like object to read data from

filename
submitted name of the upload

mimetype
type of the upload

headers
all headers

original
keeps the original ``cgi.FieldStorage`` object

Source Code
===========

The sources are in a GIT DVCS with its main branches at
`github <http://github.com/bluedynamics/yafowil.webob`_.

We'd be happy to see many forks and pull-requests to make YAFOWIL even better.
