devdave/txweb

An alternative routing system for twisted.web that is backwards compatible

Twisted Web extension

A routing extension to twisted.web

Status

Super beta

Major issues

Error handling still needs to be improved/refactored

Purpose & History

This project started a few months around when Klein did and if you want a more complete web framework I would recommend that over txWeb.

TxWeb is an overlay above the twisted.web module/package along with providing a routing resource mechanism.

from twisted.internet import reactor

from txweb import Application



app = Application(__name__)

@app.route("/hello")
def provide_hello(request):
    return "Hello World"


@app.route("/args")
def provide_arguments(request):
    who = request.args.get("who", default="No body")
    says = request.args.get("says", default="Nothing")
    #Python 3.8
    return f"{who} said {says}"
# would output "DevDave said Hello" given /args?who=DevDave&says=Hello
# would output "No body said Nothing" give /args

@app.route("/process_form")
def handle_form(request):
    input1 = request.form.get("input1")
    return ""

app.listenTCP(8080)
reactor.run()
