waffleweb VS Flask

It might seem strange use a new Python web framework over an older, more mature framework, but in this article I will tell you why you should. Waffleweb is, you guessed it, a Python web framework. Waffleweb was released on the 15th of July 2022, while Flask was released on April the 1st 2010. As you can see Flask is a lot older.

For those who don't know Waffleweb is a Python web framework. It is lightweight and highly customizable. You can find Waffleweb at https://github.com/Berserkware/waffleweb.

I'd suggest Flask or some of the smaller projects in the Pallets ecosystem:

https://github.com/pallets/flask

#!/usr/bin/python # # https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/3.0.x/installation/ # from flask import Flask, jsonify, request contacts = [ { "id": "1", "firstname": "Lorem", "lastname": "Ipsum", "email": "[email protected]", }, { "id": "2", "firstname": "Mauris", "lastname": "Quis", "email": "[email protected]", }, { "id": "3", "firstname": "Donec Purus", "lastname": "Purus", "email": "[email protected]", } ] app = Flask(__name__, static_url_path='', static_folder='public',) @app.route("/contact//save", methods=["PUT"]) def save_contact(id): data = request.json contacts[id - 1] = data return jsonify(contacts[id - 1]) @app.route("/contact/", methods=["GET"]) @app.route("/contact//edit", methods=["GET"]) def get_contact(id): return jsonify(contacts[id - 1]) @app.route('/') def root(): return app.send_static_file('index.html') if __name__ == '__main__': app.run(debug=True)

I was looking at all the big projects like numpy, pytorch, flask, etc.

I may use Flask-Admin initially to offload the "CRUD" operations to have an initial prototype fast but then drop it ASAP because I don't want to write a "flask-admin application" to fight against later on. If the application is mainly "CRUD", then Flask-Admin is suitable.

Now...

Would you do a breakdown/list of all the jobs you've done by sector/vertical and by function/role and by application functionality?

In the lab to follow, we will be setting up an end-to-end DevOps workflow for a Flask microservice with GitHub Actions, using a self-managed custom runner for maximal control over the pipeline execution environment and automating deployments to a local Kubernetes cluster. Furthermore, we will construct separate pipelines for our "development" and "production" environments to further elaborate on the concepts of continuous deployment and delivery.

Flask Micro web Framework: You will use Flask to build a Flask web application.

In an earlier post I mentioned a bunch of Open Source web applications. Let's now focus on the ones written in Python using Flask the light-weight web framework.
