🍵 Tea

Micro HTTP library in Python for building web servers.

Tea has Express.js-like syntax (which is web framework for JavaScript) with it's callback function syntax, Request, Response and URL objects. Got a lot of reference from popular web frameweorks like Flask, FastAPI and Express.js. Tea is like lightweight mix of their best features.

Finally, the 418 I am a teapot code comes true. Enjoy!

Quick Start

$ pip install tea-web

Hello, World!

Simple Hello, World! example in Tea. See /examples for more example.

# app.py
from tea import Tea

app = Tea()

def handle_index(req, res):
    res.send("Hello, World!")

app.get("/", handle_index)

app.listen() # listening port 8080

Pros

• Lightweight. No external requirement and the package cost is only ~10 KB.
• More control over the Request and Response objects. This objects can be used outside the library structure.
• Easy to use and helpful on handling simple HTTP requests.

Cons

• Limited features and methods.
• No template engine.
• Callback function syntax is not really Pythonic without decorators. (Done on purpose but true.)
• Not sure if it's ready for production.
