Werkzeug
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
Werkzeug is a comprehensive `WSGI`_ web application library. It began as
|
|
a simple collection of various utilities for WSGI applications and has
|
|
become one of the most advanced WSGI utility libraries.
|
|
|
|
It includes:
|
|
|
|
* An interactive debugger that allows inspecting stack traces and source
|
|
code in the browser with an interactive interpreter for any frame in
|
|
the stack.
|
|
* A full-featured request object with objects to interact with headers,
|
|
query args, form data, files, and cookies.
|
|
* A response object that can wrap other WSGI applications and handle
|
|
streaming data.
|
|
* A routing system for matching URLs to endpoints and generating URLs
|
|
for endpoints, with an extensible system for capturing variables from
|
|
URLs.
|
|
* HTTP utilities to handle entity tags, cache control, dates, user
|
|
agents, cookies, files, and more.
|
|
* A threaded WSGI server for use while developing applications locally.
|
|
* A test client for simulating HTTP requests during testing without
|
|
requiring running a server.
|
|
|
|
Werkzeug is Unicode aware and doesn't enforce any dependencies. It is up
|
|
to the developer to choose a template engine, database adapter, and even
|
|
how to handle requests. It can be used to build all sorts of end user
|
|
applications such as blogs, wikis, or bulletin boards.
|
|
|
|
`Flask`_ wraps Werkzeug, using it to handle the details of WSGI while
|
|
providing more structure and patterns for defining powerful
|
|
applications.
