Circular imports have you down? Looking for a better way to build mid-to-large scale systems? Pop that flask into your hip pocket and take a brisk walk to clear your head.
Flask-HipPocket is a collection of convenience wrappers for the already intensely useful Flask web framework.
At its core are two classes:
Mapper- Enable centralized URL mapping based on
LazyLoaderfrom Flask's documentation HipPocket- A wrapper to enable running setup tasks on a Flask application at startup.
HipPocket itself also comes with two pre-defined tasks:
autoload- Load blueprints from a package and auto-register them with Flask To add a new blueprint to an autoloading application simply drop in a sub-package and reload your server.
setup_errors- Add basic error responses for all HTTP error codes.
It depends on your requirements. Some things to consider:
- It is currently late-alpha software.
- It is licenced under the MIT licence.
- It does not yet have full test coverage.
- It has limited documentation.
Flask-HipPocket is actively accepting patches and feedback at its GitHub repository.
