hypernova-python

A Python client for the Hypernova service

Getting Started

Install the python client from pypi

pip install hypernova-python

Once you have the client installed and an instance of the Hypernova service running, you can making requests is easy.

Example

import hypernova

renderer = hypernova.Renderer('http://localhost')
html = renderer.render({'MyComponent.js': {'name': 'Foo'}})

Configuration

You can pass configuration options to Renderer at initialization.

• url: The address of the Hypernova service is listening, including port if necessary
• plugins: A list of plugins to use
• timeout: Number of seconds to wait for a response from the Hypernova service
• headers: Dictionary of HTTP headers to override the default. You will want to include 'Content-Type': 'application/json'

Plugins

You can implement custom events and alter requests through the Plugin Lifecycle. All lifecycle methods are optional.

Example

import hypernova
import random

class MyPlugin(object):
    def prepare_request(self, current_jobs, original_jobs):
        job = current_jobs.get('MyComponent.js')
        job.update({'random_int_for_reasons': random.randint(0, 100))
        return current_jobs

renderer = hypernova.Renderer('http://localhost', [MyPlugin()])
