picoAPI

picoAPI is a server and framework for simple asynchronous web applications built with MicroPython for your microcontroller. Of course, it will run also on CPython. But it's designed primarily for the uPy.

Consider this an alpha release for now. APIs might change.

Features

• Familiar. Written like the frameworks you already know from the "big" Python.
• Designed as asynchronous from the ground up.
• Minimal memory usage. Can run also on ESP8266 devices like ESP-01.

Examples

See ./examples directory.

Basically, it's interface is the same as you normally would see on Flask or FastAPI.

from picoapi import Server

app = Server(debug=True)
app.add_static_route("/static", "./static")

@app.route("/hello")
async def hello(req, resp):
    return "Hello, world!", 201

app.run("192.168.4.1", 8000)

### Registering static route /static/ -> ./static/
### Registering route /hello -> hello()
### Starting server on 192.168.4.1:8000...
### 192.168.4.2:12345: GET /hello 201 (43ms)

In the above example, a function needs to have two params: req and resp, which are obviously Request and Response object.

Dependencies

picoAPI depends only on (u)asyncio
