What python framework can be used to build a REST api? I know of Flask, Django and Pyramid. I don't want anything that has those in it, i all i want is a pure Rest Framework (not Web framework with REST extensions). Something that is used for just RESTful ApI.
Just Models and Controllers no views.
Thanks in advance. |
You don't necessarily even need a framework. You could use some libraries. You only need: routing, HTTP request processing, and HTTP response preparation.
In general, I strongly support the idea of tying together tiny libraries, rather than using a framework. It takes months to learn every line of code in an end-to-end framework, but if you're pulling in just the 2-3 libraries you need, you can understand every line of your code. That's really important for efficiency/bugfixing/maintenance.

Note: Flask is basically just a combination of werkzeug and jinja for templating.
Flask just gives you the routing part maybe you can even strip flask out of it and just use wsgi.
