itty.py

The itty-bitty Python web framework that crawled the up world wide web.

itty.py is a little experiment, an attempt at a Sinatra influenced micro-framework that does just enough to be useful and nothing more.

Currently supports:

• Routing
• Basic responses
• Content-types
• HTTP Status codes
• URL Parameters
• Basic GET/POST/PUT/DELETE support
• User-definable error handlers
• Redirect support
• File uploads
• Header support
• Static media serving

Beware! If you're looking for a proven, enterprise-ready framework, you're in the wrong place. But it sure is a lot of fun.

Example

from itty import get, run_itty

@get('/')
def index(request):
    return 'Hello World!'

run_itty()

See examples/ for more usages.

Thanks go out to Matt Croydon & Christian Metts for putting me up to this late at night. The joking around has become reality. :)
