Quart is an async Python web microframework. Using Quart you can,
* render and serve HTML templates,
* write (RESTful) JSON APIs,
* serve WebSockets,
* stream request and response data,
* do pretty much anything over the HTTP or WebSocket protocols.
Quickstart
----------
Quart can be installed via `pip
`_,
.. code-block:: console
$ pip install quart
and requires Python 3.7.0 or higher (see `python version support
`_
for reasoning).
A minimal Quart example is,
.. code-block:: python
from quart import Quart, render_template, websocket
app = Quart(__name__)
@app.route("/")
async def hello():
return await render_template("index.html")
@app.route("/api")
async def json():
return {"hello": "world"}
@app.websocket("/ws")
async def ws():
while True:
await websocket.send("hello")
await websocket.send_json({"hello": "world"})
if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run()
if the above is in a file called ``app.py`` it can be run as,
.. code-block:: console
$ python app.py
To deploy this app in a production setting see the `deployment
`_
documentation.
Contributing
------------
Quart is developed on `GitHub `_. If
you come across an issue, or have a feature request please open an
`issue `_. If you want to
contribute a fix or the feature-implementation please do (typo fixes
welcome), by proposing a `merge request
`_.
Testing
^^^^^^^
The best way to test Quart is with `Tox
`_,
.. code-block:: console
$ pip install tox
$ tox
this will check the code style and run the tests.
Help
----
The Quart `documentation `_ or
`cheatsheet
`_
are the best places to start, after that try searching `stack overflow
`_ or ask for help
`on discord `_. If you still
can't find an answer please `open an issue
`_.
Relationship with Flask
-----------------------
Quart is an asyncio reimplementation of the popular `Flask
`_ microframework API. This means that if you
understand Flask you understand Quart.
Like Flask Quart has an ecosystem of extensions for more specific
needs. In addition a number of the Flask extensions work with Quart.
Migrating from Flask
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It should be possible to migrate to Quart from Flask by a find and
replace of ``flask`` to ``quart`` and then adding ``async`` and
``await`` keywords. See the `docs
`_
for more help.
