breily / juno

a lightweight and simple python web framework

Juno

• Juno is a web framework that was designed to make development as fast as possible.
• Repository: http://github.com/breily/juno
• I have not updated Juno in about 6 years and don't plan to return to it. Have fun with it. It's not a great web framework but there's some interesting Python code in it.

Using Juno

To start off:

from juno import *

@route('/')
def index(web):
    return 'Juno says hi'

run()

Add some url handling:

@route('/hello/:name/')
def hello(web, name):
    return 'Hello, %s' %name

Use a template:

@get('/hi_template/:name/')
def template_hi(web, name):
    template('hello.html', name=name)

Build a model:

Person = model('Person', name='string')
p = Person(name='brian')

Features

• All normal web framework stuff (models, routes, views, templates)
• WSGI compliant, with included development server as well as SCGI/FastCGI servers
• Database access through SQLAlchemy
• Templating included through Jinja2 and Mako, but Juno can use anything.

Install

• You can use easy_install:

    easy_install Juno
  

• Or pull from Github, and then do:

    $ python setup.py install   # As root
    $ python
    >>> import juno             # Make sure everything worked
  

• Optional Dependencies:

  • SQLAlchemy (for database access)
  • Jinja2/Mako (for templating)
  • Flup (for SCGI/FastCGI only)
  • Beaker (for sessions)
  • Werkzeug (for debugging)

Note

• Juno violates some usual principles of good design (don't use global variables, don't do things implicitly, etc.) for the sake of fast development and less boilerplate code. You've been warned.
