README
Granian
A Rust HTTP server for Python applications.
Rationale
The main reasons behind Granian design are:
- Have a single, correct HTTP implementation, supporting versions 1, 2 (and eventually 3)
- Provide a single package for several platforms
- Avoid the usual Gunicorn + uvicorn + http-tools dependency composition on unix systems
- Provide stable performance when compared to existing alternatives
Features
- Supports ASGI/3 and RSGI interface applications
- Implements HTTP/1 and HTTP/2 protocols
- Supports HTTPS
- Supports Websockets over HTTP/1 and HTTP/2
Quickstart
You can install Granian using pip:
$ pip install granian
Create an ASGI application in your main.py
:
async def app(scope, receive, send):
assert scope['type'] == 'http'
await send({
'type': 'http.response.start',
'status': 200,
'headers': [
[b'content-type', b'text/plain'],
],
})
await send({
'type': 'http.response.body',
'body': b'Hello, world!',
})
and serve it:
$ granian --interface asgi main:app
You can also create an app using the RSGI specification:
async def app(scope, proto):
assert scope.proto == 'http'
proto.response_str(
status=200,
headers=[
('content-type', 'text/plain')
],
body="Hello, world!"
)
and serve it using:
$ granian --interface rsgi main:app
Project status
Granian is currently in early-stage development.
Granian is compatible with Python 3.7 and above versions on unix platforms and 3.8 and above on Windows.
