Recieps
=============
This is a collection of code snippets and examples for common use cases.
Keeping track of Sessions
----------------------------
There is no build in support for sessions because there is no *right* way to do it (in a micro framework). Depending on requirements and environment you could use beaker_ middleware with a fitting backend or implement it yourself. Here is an example for beaker sessions with a file-based backend::
import bottle
from beaker.middleware import SessionMiddleware
session_opts = {
'session.type': 'file',
'session.cookie_expires': 300,
'session.data_dir': './data',
'session.auto': True
}
app = SessionMiddleware(bottle.app(), session_opts)
@bottle.route('/test')
def test():
s = bottle.request.environ.get('beaker.session')
s['test'] = s.get('test',0) + 1
s.save()
return 'Test counter: %d' % s['test']
bottle.run(app=app)
Debugging with Style: Debugging Middleware
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bottle catches all Exceptions raised in your app code to prevent your WSGI server from crashing. If the build-in :func:`debug` mode is not enough and you need exceptions to propagate to a debugging middleware, you can turn off this behaviour::
import bottle
app = bottle.app()
app.catchall = False #Now most exceptions are re-raised within bottle.
myapp = DebuggingMiddleware(app) #Replace this with a middleware of your choice (see below)
bottle.run(app=myapp)
Now, bottle only catches its own exceptions (:exc:`HTTPError`, :exc:`HTTPResponse` and :exc:`BottleException`) and your middleware can handle the rest.
The werkzeug_ and paste_ libraries both ship with very powerfull debugging WSGI middleware. Look at :class:`werkzeug.debug.DebuggedApplication` for werkzeug_ and :class:`paste.evalexception.middleware.EvalException` for paste_. They both allow you do inspect the stack and even execute python code within the stack context, so **do not use them in production**.
Embedding other WSGI Apps
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is not the recommend way (you should use a middleware in front of bottle to do this) but you can call other WSGI applications from within your bottle app and let bottle act as a pseudo-middleware. Here is an example::
from bottle import request, response, route
subproject = SomeWSGIApplication()
@route('/subproject/:subpath#.*#', method='ALL')
def call_wsgi(subpath):
new_environ = request.environ.copy()
new_environ['SCRIPT_NAME'] = new_environ.get('SCRIPT_NAME','') + '/subproject'
new_environ['PATH_INFO'] = '/' + subpath
def start_response(status, headerlist):
response.status = int(status.split()[0])
for key, value in headerlist:
response.add_header(key, value)
return app(new_environ, start_response)
Again, this is not the recommend way to implement subprojects. It is only here because many people asked for this and to show how bottle maps to WSGI.
Ignore tailing slashes
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For Bottle, ``/example`` and ``/example/`` are two different routes. To threat both URLs the same you can add two ``@route`` decorators::
@route('/test')
@route('/test/')
def test(): return 'Slash? no?'
or add a WSGI middleware that strips tailing slashes from all URLs::
class StripPathMiddleware(object):
def __init__(self, app):
self.app = app
def __call__(self, e, h):
e['PATH_INFO'] = e['PATH_INFO'].rstrip('/')
return self.app(e,h)
app = bottle.app()
myapp = StripPathMiddleware(app)
bottle.run(app=appmy)
