============================
Bottle: Python Web Framework
============================
Bottle is a fast, simple and lightweight WSGI_ micro web-framework for Python_. It is distributed as a single file module and has no dependencies other than the `Python Standard Library <http://docs.python.org/library/>`_.
* **Routing:** Requests to function-call mapping with support for clean and dynamic URLs.
* **Templates:** Fast and pythonic :ref:`built-in template engine <tutorial-templates>` and support for mako_, jinja2_ and cheetah_ templates.
* **Utilities:** Convenient access to form data, file uploads, cookies, headers and other HTTP-related metadata.
* **Server:** Built-in HTTP development server and support for paste_, bjoern_, gae_, cherrypy_ or any other WSGI_ capable HTTP server.
.. rubric:: Example: "Hello World" in a bottle
::
from bottle import route, run, template
@route('/hello/<name>')
def index(name):
return template('<b>Hello {{name}}</b>!', name=name)
run(host='localhost', port=8080)
Run this script or paste it into a Python console, then point your browser to `<http://localhost:8080/hello/world>`_. That's it.
.. rubric:: Download and Install
.. __: https://github.com/bottlepy/bottle/raw/master/bottle.py
Install the latest stable release with ``pip install bottle`` or download `bottle.py`__ (unstable) into your project directory. There are no hard [1]_ dependencies other than the Python standard library. Bottle supports **Python 2.7 and Python 3**.
.. deprecated:: 0.13
Support for Python 2.5 and 2.6 was dropped with this release.
