| PackageDescription | supersonic micro-framework for building cloud APIs - Python 3.x
Falcon is a high-performance Python framework for building cloud APIs. It
encourages the REST architectural style, and tries to do as little as possible
while remaining highly effective.
.
Unlike other Python web frameworks, Falcon won't bottleneck your API's
performance under highly concurrent workloads. Many frameworks max out at
serving simple "hello world" requests at a few thousand req/sec, while Falcon
can easily serve many more on the same hardware.
.
Falcon isn't very opinionated. In other words, the framework leaves a lot of
decisions and implementation details to you.
.
Features:
* Intuitive routing via URI templates and resource classes
* Easy access to headers and bodies through request and response classes
* Idiomatic HTTP error responses via a handy exception base class
* DRY request processing using global, resource, and method hooks
* Snappy unit testing through WSGI helpers and mocks
* 20% speed boost when Cython is available
* Python 2.6, Python 2.7, PyPy and Python 3.3 support
.
This package provides the Python 3.x module. |
