Flask-sustainable

Supported Python versions License Latest Version PyPI Publish Python CI

Flask-Sustainable is an extension for Flask that provides a simple way to add sustainability to your application.
This is done by compressing the HTTP responses as soon as possible.
More, HTTP headers are used so that the server can return information on the performance of the application.

Two types of headers are used:

  • indicators
  • scores

Get started 🚀

Installation 📦

Install the extension with pip:

pip install flask-sustainable
# Or
pip install git+https://github.com/av1m/flask-sustainable.git

Try it out 🔬

💡 The code is available in example.py file

import flask
from flask_sustainable import Sustainable
from flask_sustainable.indicator import PerfCPU, PerfRAM, PerfTime

app = flask.Flask(__name__)
sustainable = Sustainable(app)  # Invoke Sustainable().init_app(app)
sustainable.add_indicators(PerfTime(), PerfCPU(), PerfRAM)

@app.route("/")
def helloWorld():
    return "Hello, World!"

Then, try with cURL or Postman (or any other HTTP client):

$ curl http://localhost:5000/ -I -H "Perf: Perf-Time,Perf-CPU Perf-RAM"

Perf-Time: 0.76592
Perf-RAM: 0.12114
Perf-CPU: 0.97900

cd flask-sustainable
  1. Run make command
make install
  1. Run a sample; a server is running on port 5000
python example.py

Everything has been installed and configured correctly! 🎊 Once you modify the code, you can run make format and make test commands to check the code style and test coverage (through make coverage).

To find out all the available commands, you can use make help :

help              Display callable targets.
test              Run all tests.

requirements      Install requirements.
install           Install package.
run               Run a example script.
format            Format code.
