Tornado_jsonapi is a Python 3.3+ library for creating JSON API (as per jsonapi.org specification) using Tornado web framework. It features

• semi-automatic API generation using provided JSON schema of resource;
• support for arbitrary data sources, including SQLAlchemy and PostgreSQL (via DBAPI2 support layer);
• support for asynchronous data source operations;
• strict jsonapi.org specification conformance.

import sqlite3 import tornado.ioloop import tornado.web import tornado_jsonapi.handlers import tornado_jsonapi.resource schema = { "title": "post", "properties": { "text": { "type": "string" }, "author": { "type": "string" } } } res = tornado_jsonapi.resource.DBAPI2Resource( schema, sqlite3, sqlite3.connect(':memory:')) res._create_table() application = tornado.web.Application([ ( r"/api/posts/([^/]*)", tornado_jsonapi.handlers.APIHandler, dict(resource=res) ) ]) application.listen(8888) tornado.ioloop.IOLoop.current().start()

$ pip install tornado_jsonapi

a.k.a. TODO

• improve documentation 😔
• automatic API doc generation based on JSON schema;
• MongoDB/Motor support;
• support for API testing.
