(Py)HP (H)ypertext (P)reprocessor

I want PHP style 'quick' template execution, but with Python instead.

Warning: Currently very insecure. Do not use.

Credit

I stole a lot of code from stackoverflow. Thanks to @aarondewindt for helping make this a reality.

Installation

PyHP is installable with pip.

pip install pyhp-hypertext-preprocessor

You can then serve .pyhp files fom your current directory with:

python -m pyhp.app

It is accessible at http://localhost:5000. If you have an index.pyhp file, that will be served. If not, you'll have to explicitly go to http://localhost:5000/myfile.pyhp to execute myfile.pyhp. Static files with common extensions (like css, js, jpg, etc) will automatically be served as static files.

Setup

You can set it up for local development with:

1. Fork this repository & clone your fork to your local machine.

2. Setup a virtual environment in your clone:

   python3 -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate

3. Install the pyhp package

   pip install -e . 

4. Run pyhp!

   python3 -m pyhp.app

   This should serve the contents of the current directory. You can try going to http://localhost:5000/hi.pyhp to test it out.
