Quickstart ========== For the restless:: import flask.ext.restless from elixir import Date, DateTime, Field, Unicode from elixir import ManyToOne, OneToMany from elixir import create_all, metadata, setup_all from sqlalchemy import create_engine # Entity classes must inherit from flaskext.restless.Entity. Other than # that, the definition of the model is exactly the same. class Person(flask.ext.restless.Entity): name = Field(Unicode, unique=True) birth_date = Field(Date) computers = OneToMany('Computer') class Computer(flask.ext.restless.Entity): name = Field(Unicode, unique=True) vendor = Field(Unicode) owner = ManyToOne('Person') purchase_time = Field(DateTime) # Basic Elixir setup is the same. metadata.bind = create_engine('sqlite:////tmp/test.db') metadata.bind.echo = False setup_all() create_all() # Create the Flask application and register it with the APIManager. app = flask.Flask(__name__) manager = flask.ext.restless.APIManager(app) # Create API endpoints, which will be available at /api/ by # default (with the lowercase form of the model name). Allowed HTTP methods # can be specified as well. manager.create_api(Person, methods=['GET', 'PATCH', 'POST', 'DELETE']) manager.create_api(Computer, methods=['GET']) # start the flask loop app.run()
