Today, I want to build a simple web service that provides some answers in JSON format – a so called RESTful web service. Therefore, I am looking for Python frameworks that provide easy and fast solution for this.
My search has led to the following Web Frameworks for Python:
- web.py (v0.38)
- Flask (v0.12)
- Django REST framework (v3.5.4)
- eve (0.7.2)
- CherryPy (v10.1.1)
From a first impression of the frameworks itself and some blog posts that describe solutions with it, the Flask framework seems to be fastest and easiest solution. I will probably give it a try. You know other frameworks. Feel free to add them in the comment section.
