Back-Ends simplified.
Backpipe tries to support all operating systems.
But its primary focus lies on Linux support,
as it is the main choice for website hosting.
Running it on Windows might lead to issues and is not recommended.
The name 'Backpipe' is inspired by the english word 'Bagpipe'.
I decided to call it 'Backpipe', because it is a Back-End Framework.
It is just a little pun.
import backpipe
server = backpipe.BackPipe()
@server.get
def hello_world(r: backpipe.Request):
return (200, "Hello World")

import backpipe

@server.get
def my_ip_address(r: backpipe.Request):
return (200, r.address)

@server.any
def wrong_method(r: backpipe.Request):
return (405, f"Wrong method: {r.method}, use POST.")
@server.unknown
def unknown_method(r: backpipe.Request):
return (405, f"Unknown method: {r.method}, use POST.")
@server.post
def login(r: backpipe.Request):
try:
if r.headers["key"] == "password1234":
return (200, "Password correct!")
else:
return (304, "Password wrong!")
except KeyError:
return (400, "invalid request, 'key' header missing.")
server.run()
import backpipe

@server.post
def respond(r: backpipe.Request):
return (200, r.body) # Returns the clients's request body
server.run()
- URI-too-long message raises error on client-side when using Python requests
- Limited client information on URI-too-long message (probably unfixable.)
When activating HTTPS, you need to sign your certificate file
with a key provided by a trusted authority.
Self-signing your certificate will make tools such as
CURL, your Browser, etc. raise a warning,
that the website may be unsafe.
