Powered by Flask, MongoDB, Redis and good intentions Eve allows to effortlessly build and deploy highly customizable, fully featured RESTful Web Services.
from eve import Eve
app = Eve()
app.run()
The API is now live, ready to be consumed:
$ curl -i https://example.com/people
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
All you need to bring your API online is a database, a configuration file
(defaults to settings.py
) and a launch script. Overall, you will find that
configuring and fine-tuning your API is a very simple process.
Eve is thoroughly tested under Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.3, 3.4 and PyPy.
