Bottle

Bottle is a lightweight Python web micro-framework and template engine. It functions as a WSGI web framework that routes HTTP requests to Python functions to generate dynamic content.

The framework is distributed as a single Python file with no external dependencies. This minimalist distribution model allows for rapid application prototyping and the creation of web services with a small footprint.

The project provides capabilities for dynamic request routing, REST API development, and dynamic HTML rendering. It includes a built-in HTTP development server for web application hosting and a pluggable template system for injecting data into views.

Features

Micro-frameworks - Provides a minimalist software library for constructing lightweight web APIs and basic web applications.

Single-File Framework Distributions - Packages the entire framework core into a single Python module to eliminate external dependencies.

Python Web Frameworks - Provides a flexible framework for developing web applications using the Python programming language.

Request Middleware - Implements a pipeline of wrapper functions to process incoming HTTP requests and outgoing responses.

Request Routing - Maps incoming network requests to specific backend functions using dynamic URL patterns.

Single-File Web Frameworks - Distributed as a single Python file with no external dependencies for a minimalist footprint.

Web Application Frameworks - Provides a standard server interface to create lightweight web applications that handle HTTP requests.

WSGI Application Servers - Implements a standard WSGI gateway interface to standardize communication between the web server and the application.

Pattern-Based Route Mapping - Matches incoming URL paths to handler functions by converting dynamic route patterns into regular expressions.

Route Registries - Implements an in-memory registry to store and quickly look up URL patterns and their associated callbacks.

Rapid Prototyping - Enables rapid spinning up of functional web servers to test ideas without complex configuration.

HTML Template Renderers - Generates dynamic web pages by injecting Python data into templates for browser delivery.

Dynamic Template Rendering - Generates HTML content by injecting data into views using a built-in or third-party engine.

HTML Templating Engines - Includes a system for generating HTML content by injecting Python data into views.

Pluggable View Engines - Provides a common rendering interface that allows switching between the built-in template system and external libraries.

RESTful API Development - Facilitates the development of backend endpoints that route network requests for data exchange.

Web Frameworks - Simple micro-framework for web apps.
