izzati
A simple, multi-language frontend to backend communication library
Why?
I created this because I was recently at a hackathon where we created an app and a backend and had to send a picture to the backend and receive some text as a response. We spent close to 9 hours of our 36 hours and we still couldn't get it working. We were sleep deprived, there were so many options and we just couldn't get it to work. So I made this, which is designed to Just Work between a backend and a frontend where you can send send text or a file with a few commands and removing all the need for extra research or dealing with HTTP POST or GET etc.
Features
- Dead simple library that is intuitive to use
- Supports sending images back and forth and returns a simple file object on both sides
- Uses callbacks so no large while loop
- Supports easy to use background processes
- Deciphers all the messages into native dictionary objects
- Clear documentation so everything you need is in one place
Samples
Working samples include tests/test.py which is the backend, tests/test-frontend.py
which is the backend, and a Java sample inside the Android project.
