This is a simple node package to route http/https requests to python functions. It is useful for calling python functions from a web UI front end. Feel free to make your own changes and experiment.
The following application is published under GNU GPLv3 License. Please view LICENSE file included in the repository for more information.
As of now, this application accepts data from GET requests. POST request support will be added in upcoming versions. Clone the repository using the below command.
git clone https://github.com/IamVman/pyno-router.git
Navigate to the root directory and run below npm commands to install the missing dependencies or to setup for the first time. Make sure that package.json file is in the root directory.
npm install -g npm
npm install
After installing the dependencies, run the server using
node server.js
Currently, the server is set to accept only GET requests as part of pilot phase. The format to pass data to python script as follows
http://<hostname>:<port>/run?<arg1>=<data1>&<arg2>=<data2>
By default, when running in local machine, server listens on port 8888. In this case, URL would be http://localhost:8888/run?myarg=hello&myarg2=world
The names of arguments don't matter much. The ordering of arguments is important.
A test python script is given in the python_scripts folder which would output whatever arguments passed to it along with its own file path
