aiohttp does :term:`requoting` of incoming request path.
Unicode (non-ASCII) symbols are processed transparently on both route adding and resolving (internally everything is converted to :term:`percent-encoding` form by :term:`yarl` library).
But in case of custom regular expressions for :ref:`aiohttp-web-variable-handler` please take care that URL is percent encoded: if you pass Unicode patterns they don't match to requoted path.
When a client peer is gone a subsequent reading or writing raises :exc:`OSError` or more specific exception like :exc:`ConnectionResetError`.
The reason for disconnection is vary; it can be a network issue or explicit socket closing on the peer side without reading the whole server response.
aiohttp handles disconnection properly but you can handle it explicitly, e.g.:
async def handler(request):
try:
text = await request.text()
except OSError:
# disconnected
:func:`run_app` accepts either application instance or a coroutine for making an application. The coroutine based approach allows to perform async IO before making an app:
async def app_factory():
await pre_init()
app = web.Application()
app.router.add_get(...)
return app
web.run_app(app_factory())
Gunicorn worker supports a factory as well. For Gunicorn the factory should accept zero parameters:
async def my_web_app():
app = web.Application()
app.router.add_get(...)
return app
Start gunicorn:
$ gunicorn my_app_module:my_web_app --bind localhost:8080 --worker-class aiohttp.GunicornWebWorker.. versionadded:: 3.1
Sometimes you need to register :ref:`handlers <aiohttp-web-handler>` on more complex criteria than simply a HTTP method and path pair.
Although :class:`UrlDispatcher` does not support any extra criteria, routing based on custom conditions can be accomplished by implementing a second layer of routing in your application.
The following example shows custom routing based on the HTTP Accept header:
class AcceptChooser:
def __init__(self):
self._accepts = {}
async def do_route(self, request):
for accept in request.headers.getall('ACCEPT', []):
acceptor = self._accepts.get(accept)
if acceptor is not None:
return (await acceptor(request))
raise HTTPNotAcceptable()
def reg_acceptor(self, accept, handler):
self._accepts[accept] = handler
async def handle_json(request):
# do json handling
async def handle_xml(request):
# do xml handling
chooser = AcceptChooser()
app.add_routes([web.get('/', chooser.do_route)])
chooser.reg_acceptor('application/json', handle_json)
chooser.reg_acceptor('application/xml', handle_xml)
The best way to handle static files (images, JavaScripts, CSS files etc.) is using Reverse Proxy like nginx or CDN services.
But for development it's very convenient to handle static files by aiohttp server itself.
To do it just register a new static route by :meth:`RouteTableDef.static` or :func:`static` calls:
app.add_routes([web.static('/prefix', path_to_static_folder)])
routes.static('/prefix', path_to_static_folder)
When a directory is accessed within a static route then the server responses
to client with HTTP/403 Forbidden by default. Displaying folder index
instead could be enabled with show_index parameter set to True:
web.static('/prefix', path_to_static_folder, show_index=True)
When a symlink from the static directory is accessed, the server responses to
client with HTTP/404 Not Found by default. To allow the server to follow
symlinks, parameter follow_symlinks should be set to True:
web.static('/prefix', path_to_static_folder, follow_symlinks=True)
When you want to enable cache busting,
parameter append_version can be set to True
Cache busting is the process of appending some form of file version hash to the filename of resources like JavaScript and CSS files. The performance advantage of doing this is that we can tell the browser to cache these files indefinitely without worrying about the client not getting the latest version when the file changes:
web.static('/prefix', path_to_static_folder, append_version=True)
:mod:`aiohttp.web` does not support template rendering out-of-the-box.
However, there is a third-party library, :mod:`aiohttp_jinja2`, which is supported by the aiohttp authors.
Using it is rather simple. First, setup a jinja2 environment with a call to :func:`aiohttp_jinja2.setup`:
app = web.Application()
aiohttp_jinja2.setup(app,
loader=jinja2.FileSystemLoader('/path/to/templates/folder'))
After that you may use the template engine in your :ref:`handlers <aiohttp-web-handler>`. The most convenient way is to simply wrap your handlers with the :func:`aiohttp_jinja2.template` decorator:
@aiohttp_jinja2.template('tmpl.jinja2')
async def handler(request):
return {'name': 'Andrew', 'surname': 'Svetlov'}
If you prefer the Mako template engine, please take a look at the aiohttp_mako library.
Warning
:func:`aiohttp_jinja2.template` should be applied before :meth:`RouteTableDef.get` decorator and family, e.g. it must be the first (most down decorator in the chain):
@routes.get('/path')
@aiohttp_jinja2.template('tmpl.jinja2')
async def handler(request):
return {'name': 'Andrew', 'surname': 'Svetlov'}
Reading from the WebSocket (await ws.receive()) must only be
done inside the request handler task; however, writing
(ws.send_str(...)) to the WebSocket, closing (await
ws.close()) and canceling the handler task may be delegated to other
tasks. See also :ref:`FAQ section
<aiohttp_faq_terminating_websockets>`.
:mod:`aiohttp.web` creates an implicit :class:`asyncio.Task` for handling every incoming request.
Note
While :mod:`aiohttp.web` itself only supports WebSockets without downgrading to LONG-POLLING, etc., our team supports SockJS, an aiohttp-based library for implementing SockJS-compatible server code.
Warning
Parallel reads from websocket are forbidden, there is no possibility to call :meth:`WebSocketResponse.receive` from two tasks.
See :ref:`FAQ section <aiohttp_faq_parallel_event_sources>` for instructions how to solve the problem.
:mod:`aiohttp.web` discourages the use of global variables, aka singletons. Every variable should have its own context that is not global.
Global variables are generally considered bad practice due to the complexity they add in keeping track of state changes to variables.
aiohttp does not use globals by design, which will reduce the number of bugs and/or unexpected behaviors for its users. For example, an i18n translated string being written for one request and then being served to another.
So, :class:`Application` and :class:`Request` support a :class:`collections.abc.MutableMapping` interface (i.e. they are dict-like objects), allowing them to be used as data stores.
For storing global-like variables, feel free to save them in an :class:`Application` instance:
app['my_private_key'] = data
and get it back in the :term:`web-handler`:
async def handler(request):
data = request.app['my_private_key']
Rather than using :class:`str` keys, we recommend using :class:`AppKey`. This is required for type safety (e.g. when checking with mypy):
my_private_key = web.AppKey("my_private_key", str)
app[my_private_key] = data
async def handler(request: web.Request):
data = request.app[my_private_key]
# reveal_type(data) -> str
In case of :ref:`nested applications <aiohttp-web-nested-applications>` the desired lookup strategy could be the following:
- Search the key in the current nested application.
- If the key is not found continue searching in the parent application(s).
For this please use :attr:`Request.config_dict` read-only property:
async def handler(request):
data = request.config_dict[my_private_key]
The app object can be used in this way to reuse a database connection or anything else needed throughout the application.
See this reference section for more detail: :ref:`aiohttp-web-app-and-router`.
Variables that are only needed for the lifetime of a :class:`Request`, can be stored in a :class:`Request`:
async def handler(request): request['my_private_key'] = "data" ...
This is mostly useful for :ref:`aiohttp-web-middlewares` and :ref:`aiohttp-web-signals` handlers to store data for further processing by the next handlers in the chain.
:class:`StreamResponse` and :class:`Response` objects also support :class:`collections.abc.MutableMapping` interface. This is useful when you want to share data with signals and middlewares once all the work in the handler is done:
async def handler(request): [ do all the work ] response['my_metric'] = 123 return response
To avoid clashing with other aiohttp users and third-party libraries, please choose a unique key name for storing data.
If your code is published on PyPI, then the project name is most likely unique
and safe to use as the key.
Otherwise, something based on your company name/url would be satisfactory (i.e.
org.company.app).
Asyncio has :mod:`Context Variables <contextvars>` as a context-local storage (a generalization of thread-local concept that works with asyncio tasks also).
aiohttp server supports it in the following way:
A server inherits the current task's context used when creating it. :func:`aiohttp.web.run_app()` runs a task for handling all underlying jobs running the app, but alternatively :ref:`aiohttp-web-app-runners` can be used.
Application initialization / finalization events (:attr:`Application.cleanup_ctx`, :attr:`Application.on_startup` and :attr:`Application.on_shutdown`, :attr:`Application.on_cleanup`) are executed inside the same context.
E.g. all context modifications made on application startup are visible on teardown.
On every request handling aiohttp creates a context copy. :term:`web-handler` has all variables installed on initialization stage. But the context modification made by a handler or middleware is invisible to another HTTP request handling call.
An example of context vars usage:
from contextvars import ContextVar
from aiohttp import web
VAR = ContextVar('VAR', default='default')
async def coro():
return VAR.get()
async def handler(request):
var = VAR.get()
VAR.set('handler')
ret = await coro()
return web.Response(text='\n'.join([var,
ret]))
async def on_startup(app):
print('on_startup', VAR.get())
VAR.set('on_startup')
async def on_cleanup(app):
print('on_cleanup', VAR.get())
VAR.set('on_cleanup')
async def init():
print('init', VAR.get())
VAR.set('init')
app = web.Application()
app.router.add_get('/', handler)
app.on_startup.append(on_startup)
app.on_cleanup.append(on_cleanup)
return app
web.run_app(init())
print('done', VAR.get())
.. versionadded:: 3.5
:mod:`aiohttp.web` provides a powerful mechanism for customizing :ref:`request handlers<aiohttp-web-handler>` via middlewares.
A middleware is a coroutine that can modify either the request or
response. For example, here's a simple middleware which appends
' wink' to the response:
from aiohttp.web import middleware
async def middleware(request, handler):
resp = await handler(request)
resp.text = resp.text + ' wink'
return resp
Warning
As of version 4.0.0 "new-style" middleware is default and the
@middleware decorator is not required (and is deprecated), you can
simply remove the decorator. "Old-style" middleware (a coroutine which
returned a coroutine) is no longer supported.
Note
The example won't work with streamed responses or websockets
Every middleware should accept two parameters, a :class:`request
<Request>` instance and a handler, and return the response or raise
an exception. If the exception is not an instance of
:exc:`HTTPException` it is converted to 500
:exc:`HTTPInternalServerError` after processing the
middlewares chain.
Warning
Second argument should be named handler exactly.
When creating an :class:`Application`, these middlewares are passed to
the keyword-only middlewares parameter:
app = web.Application(middlewares=[middleware_1,
middleware_2])
Internally, a single :ref:`request handler <aiohttp-web-handler>` is constructed by applying the middleware chain to the original handler in reverse order, and is called by the :class:`~aiohttp.web.RequestHandler` as a regular handler.
Since middlewares are themselves coroutines, they may perform extra
await calls when creating a new handler, e.g. call database etc.
Middlewares usually call the handler, but they may choose to ignore it, e.g. displaying 403 Forbidden page or raising :exc:`HTTPForbidden` exception if the user does not have permissions to access the underlying resource. They may also render errors raised by the handler, perform some pre- or post-processing like handling CORS and so on.
The following code demonstrates middlewares execution order:
from aiohttp import web
async def test(request):
print('Handler function called')
return web.Response(text="Hello")
async def middleware1(request, handler):
print('Middleware 1 called')
response = await handler(request)
print('Middleware 1 finished')
return response
async def middleware2(request, handler):
print('Middleware 2 called')
response = await handler(request)
print('Middleware 2 finished')
return response
app = web.Application(middlewares=[middleware1, middleware2])
app.router.add_get('/', test)
web.run_app(app)
Produced output:
Middleware 1 called Middleware 2 called Handler function called Middleware 2 finished Middleware 1 finished
A common use of middlewares is to implement custom error pages. The following example will render 404 errors using a JSON response, as might be appropriate a JSON REST service:
from aiohttp import web
async def error_middleware(request, handler):
try:
response = await handler(request)
if response.status != 404:
return response
message = response.message
except web.HTTPException as ex:
if ex.status != 404:
raise
message = ex.reason
return web.json_response({'error': message})
app = web.Application(middlewares=[error_middleware])
A middleware factory is a function that creates a middleware with passed arguments. For example, here's a trivial middleware factory:
def middleware_factory(text):
async def sample_middleware(request, handler):
resp = await handler(request)
resp.text = resp.text + text
return resp
return sample_middleware
Note that in contrast to regular middlewares, a middleware factory should return the function, not the value. So when passing a middleware factory to the app you actually need to call it:
app = web.Application(middlewares=[middleware_factory(' wink')])
Although :ref:`middlewares <aiohttp-web-middlewares>` can customize :ref:`request handlers<aiohttp-web-handler>` before or after a :class:`Response` has been prepared, they can't customize a :class:`Response` while it's being prepared. For this :mod:`aiohttp.web` provides signals.
For example, a middleware can only change HTTP headers for unprepared responses (see :meth:`StreamResponse.prepare`), but sometimes we need a hook for changing HTTP headers for streamed responses and WebSockets. This can be accomplished by subscribing to the :attr:`Application.on_response_prepare` signal, which is called after default headers have been computed and directly before headers are sent:
async def on_prepare(request, response):
response.headers['My-Header'] = 'value'
app.on_response_prepare.append(on_prepare)
Additionally, the :attr:`Application.on_startup` and :attr:`Application.on_cleanup` signals can be subscribed to for application component setup and tear down accordingly.
The following example will properly initialize and dispose an asyncpg connection engine:
from sqlalchemy.ext.asyncio import AsyncEngine, create_async_engine
pg_engine = web.AppKey("pg_engine", AsyncEngine)
async def create_pg(app):
app[pg_engine] = await create_async_engine(
"postgresql+asyncpg://postgre:@localhost:5432/postgre"
)
async def dispose_pg(app):
await app[pg_engine].dispose()
app.on_startup.append(create_pg)
app.on_cleanup.append(dispose_pg)
Signal handlers should not return a value but may modify incoming mutable parameters.
Signal handlers will be run sequentially, in order they were added. All handlers must be asynchronous since aiohttp 3.0.
Bare :attr:`Application.on_startup` / :attr:`Application.on_cleanup` pair still has a pitfall: signals handlers are independent on each other.
E.g. we have [create_pg, create_redis] in startup signal and
[dispose_pg, dispose_redis] in cleanup.
If, for example, create_pg(app) call fails create_redis(app)
is not called. But on application cleanup both dispose_pg(app) and
dispose_redis(app) are still called: cleanup signal has no
knowledge about startup/cleanup pairs and their execution state.
The solution is :attr:`Application.cleanup_ctx` usage:
async def pg_engine(app: web.Application):
app[pg_engine] = await create_async_engine(
"postgresql+asyncpg://postgre:@localhost:5432/postgre"
)
yield
await app[pg_engine].dispose()
app.cleanup_ctx.append(pg_engine)
The attribute is a list of asynchronous generators, a code before
yield is an initialization stage (called on startup), a code
after yield is executed on cleanup. The generator must have only
one yield.
aiohttp guarantees that cleanup code is called if and only if startup code was successfully finished.
.. versionadded:: 3.1
Sub applications are designed for solving the problem of the big monolithic code base. Let's assume we have a project with own business logic and tools like administration panel and debug toolbar.
Administration panel is a separate application by its own nature but all
toolbar URLs are served by prefix like /admin.
Thus we'll create a totally separate application named admin and
connect it to main app with prefix by
:meth:`Application.add_subapp`:
admin = web.Application()
# setup admin routes, signals and middlewares
app.add_subapp('/admin/', admin)
Middlewares and signals from app and admin are chained.
It means that if URL is '/admin/something' middlewares from
app are applied first and admin.middlewares are the next in
the call chain.
The same is going for
:attr:`Application.on_response_prepare` signal -- the
signal is delivered to both top level app and admin if
processing URL is routed to admin sub-application.
Common signals like :attr:`Application.on_startup`, :attr:`Application.on_shutdown` and :attr:`Application.on_cleanup` are delivered to all registered sub-applications. The passed parameter is sub-application instance, not top-level application.
Third level sub-applications can be nested into second level ones -- there are no limitation for nesting level.
Url reversing for sub-applications should generate urls with proper prefix.
But for getting URL sub-application's router should be used:
admin = web.Application()
admin.add_routes([web.get('/resource', handler, name='name')])
app.add_subapp('/admin/', admin)
url = admin.router['name'].url_for()
The generated url from example will have a value
URL('/admin/resource').
If main application should do URL reversing for sub-application it could use the following explicit technique:
admin = web.Application()
admin_key = web.AppKey('admin_key', web.Application)
admin.add_routes([web.get('/resource', handler, name='name')])
app.add_subapp('/admin/', admin)
app[admin_key] = admin
async def handler(request: web.Request): # main application's handler
admin = request.app[admin_key]
url = admin.router['name'].url_for()
:mod:`aiohttp.web` supports Expect header. By default it sends
HTTP/1.1 100 Continue line to client, or raises
:exc:`HTTPExpectationFailed` if header value is not equal to
"100-continue". It is possible to specify custom Expect header
handler on per route basis. This handler gets called if Expect
header exist in request after receiving all headers and before
processing application's :ref:`aiohttp-web-middlewares` and
route handler. Handler can return None, in that case the request
processing continues as usual. If handler returns an instance of class
:class:`StreamResponse`, request handler uses it as response. Also
handler can raise a subclass of :exc:`HTTPException`. In this case all
further processing will not happen and client will receive appropriate
http response.
Note
A server that does not understand or is unable to comply with any of the expectation values in the Expect field of a request MUST respond with appropriate error status. The server MUST respond with a 417 (Expectation Failed) status if any of the expectations cannot be met or, if there are other problems with the request, some other 4xx status.
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.20
If all checks pass, the custom handler must write a HTTP/1.1 100 Continue status code before returning.
The following example shows how to setup a custom handler for the Expect header:
async def check_auth(request):
if request.version != aiohttp.HttpVersion11:
return
if request.headers.get('EXPECT') != '100-continue':
raise HTTPExpectationFailed(text="Unknown Expect: %s" % expect)
if request.headers.get('AUTHORIZATION') is None:
raise HTTPForbidden()
request.transport.write(b"HTTP/1.1 100 Continue\r\n\r\n")
async def hello(request):
return web.Response(body=b"Hello, world")
app = web.Application()
app.add_routes([web.add_get('/', hello, expect_handler=check_auth)])
To register custom resource use :meth:`~aiohttp.web.UrlDispatcher.register_resource`. Resource instance must implement AbstractResource interface.
:func:`run_app` provides a simple blocking API for running an :class:`Application`.
For starting the application asynchronously or serving on multiple HOST/PORT :class:`AppRunner` exists.
The simple startup code for serving HTTP site on 'localhost', port
8080 looks like:
runner = web.AppRunner(app)
await runner.setup()
site = web.TCPSite(runner, 'localhost', 8080)
await site.start()
while True:
await asyncio.sleep(3600) # sleep forever
To stop serving call :meth:`AppRunner.cleanup`:
await runner.cleanup()
.. versionadded:: 3.0
Stopping aiohttp web server by just closing all connections is not always satisfactory.
The problem is: if application supports :term:`websocket`s or data streaming it most likely has open connections at server shutdown time.
The library has no knowledge how to close them gracefully but developer can help by registering :attr:`Application.on_shutdown` signal handler and call the signal on web server closing.
Developer should keep a list of opened connections (:class:`Application` is a good candidate).
The following :term:`websocket` snippet shows an example for websocket handler:
from aiohttp import web
import weakref
app = web.Application()
websockets = web.AppKey("websockets", weakref.WeakSet)
app[websockets] = weakref.WeakSet()
async def websocket_handler(request):
ws = web.WebSocketResponse()
await ws.prepare(request)
request.app[websockets].add(ws)
try:
async for msg in ws:
...
finally:
request.app[websockets].discard(ws)
return ws
Signal handler may look like:
from aiohttp import WSCloseCode
async def on_shutdown(app):
for ws in set(app[websockets]):
await ws.close(code=WSCloseCode.GOING_AWAY,
message='Server shutdown')
app.on_shutdown.append(on_shutdown)
Both :func:`run_app` and :meth:`AppRunner.cleanup` call shutdown signal handlers.
aiohttp ceils internal timeout values if the value is equal or
greater than 5 seconds. The timeout expires at the next integer second
greater than current_time + timeout.
More details about ceiling absolute timeout values is available here :ref:`aiohttp-client-timeouts`.
The default threshold can be configured at :class:`aiohttp.web.Application`
level using the handler_args parameter.
app = web.Application(handler_args={"timeout_ceil_threshold": 1})Sometimes there's a need to perform some asynchronous operations just after application start-up.
Even more, in some sophisticated systems there could be a need to run some background tasks in the event loop along with the application's request handler. Such as listening to message queue or other network message/event sources (e.g. ZeroMQ, Redis Pub/Sub, AMQP, etc.) to react to received messages within the application.
For example the background task could listen to ZeroMQ on
zmq.SUB socket, process and forward retrieved messages to
clients connected via WebSocket that are stored somewhere in the
application (e.g. in the application['websockets'] list).
To run such short and long running background tasks aiohttp provides an ability to register :attr:`Application.on_startup` signal handler(s) that will run along with the application's request handler.
For example there's a need to run one quick task and two long running tasks that will live till the application is alive. The appropriate background tasks could be registered as an :attr:`Application.on_startup` signal handler or :attr:`Application.cleanup_ctx` as shown in the example below:
import redis.asyncio as redis
from aiohttp import web
async def listen_to_redis(app: web.Application):
client = redis.from_url('redis://localhost:6379')
pubsub = client.pubsub()
channel = 'news'
await pubsub.subscribe(channel)
while True:
try:
msg = await pubsub.get_message(ignore_subscribe_messages=True, timeout=1.0)
if msg is not None:
for ws in app['websockets']:
ws.send_str('{}: {}'.format(channel, msg))
await asyncio.sleep(0.01)
except asyncio.CancelledError:
break
await pubsub.unsubscribe(channel)
await pubsub.close()
async def background_tasks(app):
app[redis_listener] = asyncio.create_task(listen_to_redis(app))
yield
app[redis_listener].cancel()
await app[redis_listener]
app = web.Application()
redis_listener = web.AppKey("redis_listener", asyncio.Task[None])
app.cleanup_ctx.append(background_tasks)
web.run_app(app)
The task listen_to_redis will run forever.
To shut it down correctly :attr:`Application.on_cleanup` signal handler
may be used to send a cancellation to it.
Sometimes aiohttp is not the sole part of an application and additional tasks/processes may need to be run alongside the aiohttp :class:`Application`.
Generally, the best way to achieve this is to use :func:`aiohttp.web.run_app` as the entry point for the program. Other tasks can then be run via :attr:`Application.startup` and :attr:`Application.on_cleanup`. By having the :class:`Application` control the lifecycle of the entire program, the code will be more robust and ensure that the tasks are started and stopped along with the application.
For example, running a long-lived task alongside the :class:`Application` can be done with a :ref:`aiohttp-web-cleanup-ctx` function like:
async def run_other_task(_app):
task = asyncio.create_task(other_long_task())
yield
task.cancel()
with suppress(asyncio.CancelledError):
await task # Ensure any exceptions etc. are raised.
app.cleanup_ctx.append(run_other_task)
Or a separate process can be run with something like:
async def run_process(_app):
proc = await asyncio.create_subprocess_exec(path)
yield
if proc.returncode is None:
proc.terminate()
await proc.wait()
app.cleanup_ctx.append(run_process)
Pages like 404 Not Found and 500 Internal Error could be handled by custom middleware, see :ref:`polls demo <aiohttp-demos-polls-middlewares>` for example.
As discussed in :ref:`aiohttp-deployment` the preferable way is deploying aiohttp web server behind a Reverse Proxy Server like :term:`nginx` for production usage.
In this way properties like :attr:`BaseRequest.scheme` :attr:`BaseRequest.host` and :attr:`BaseRequest.remote` are incorrect.
Real values should be given from proxy server, usually either
Forwarded or old-fashion X-Forwarded-For,
X-Forwarded-Host, X-Forwarded-Proto HTTP headers are used.
aiohttp does not take forwarded headers into account by default because it produces security issue: HTTP client might add these headers too, pushing non-trusted data values.
That's why aiohttp server should setup forwarded headers in custom middleware in tight conjunction with reverse proxy configuration.
For changing :attr:`BaseRequest.scheme` :attr:`BaseRequest.host` :attr:`BaseRequest.remote` and :attr:`BaseRequest.client_max_size` the middleware might use :meth:`BaseRequest.clone`.
.. seealso:: https://github.com/aio-libs/aiohttp-remotes provides secure helpers for modifying *scheme*, *host* and *remote* attributes according to ``Forwarded`` and ``X-Forwarded-*`` HTTP headers.
aiohttp-swagger is a library that allow to add Swagger documentation and embed the Swagger-UI into your :mod:`aiohttp.web` project.
:mod:`aiohttp.web` itself does not support Cross-Origin Resource Sharing, but there is an aiohttp plugin for it: aiohttp_cors.
aiohttp-debugtoolbar is a very useful library that provides a debugging toolbar while you're developing an :mod:`aiohttp.web` application.
Install it with pip:
$ pip install aiohttp_debugtoolbarJust call :func:`aiohttp_debugtoolbar.setup`:
import aiohttp_debugtoolbar from aiohttp_debugtoolbar import toolbar_middleware_factory app = web.Application() aiohttp_debugtoolbar.setup(app)
The toolbar is ready to use. Enjoy!!!
aiohttp-devtools provides a couple of tools to simplify development of :mod:`aiohttp.web` applications.
Install with pip:
$ pip install aiohttp-devtoolsrunserverprovides a development server with auto-reload, live-reload, static file serving.startis a cookiecutter command which does the donkey work of creating new :mod:`aiohttp.web Applications.
Documentation and a complete tutorial of creating and running an app locally are available at aiohttp-devtools.
