Documentation
- A fixture for testing WSGI applications conveniently and in-process,
in paste.fixture
- A fixture for testing command-line applications, also in
paste.fixture
- Check components for WSGI-compliance in paste.lint
- Check filesystem changes, with paste.debug.fsdiff
- A threaded HTTP server in paste.httpserver
- A tool for seeing and killing errant threads in the HTTP server, in
paste.debug.watchthreads
- Chain and cascade WSGI applications (returning the first non-error
response) in paste.cascade
- Dispatch to several WSGI applications based on URL prefixes, in
paste.urlmap
- Allow applications to make subrequests and forward requests
internally, in paste.recursive
- Redirect error pages (e.g., 404 Not Found) to custom error pages, in
paste.errordocument.
- Easily deal with incoming requests and sending a response in
paste.wsgiwrappers
- Work directly with the WSGI environment in paste.request
- Run CGI programs as WSGI applications in paste.cgiapp
- Traverse files and load WSGI applications from .py files (or
static files), in paste.urlparser
- Serve static directories of files, also in paste.urlparser; also
serve using the Setuptools pkg_resources resource API.
- Proxy to other servers, treating external HTTP servers as WSGI
applications, in paste.proxy.
- Serve files (with support for If-Modified-Since, etc) in
paste.fileapp
- Catch HTTP-related exceptions (e.g., HTTPNotFound) and turn them
into proper responses in paste.httpexceptions
- Manage HTTP header fields with paste.httpheaders
- Handle authentication/identification of requests in paste.auth
- Create sessions in paste.session and paste.flup_session
- Gzip responses in paste.gzipper
- A wide variety of routines for manipulating WSGI requests and
producing responses, in paste.request, paste.response and
paste.wsgilib.
- Create Apache-style logs in paste.translogger
- Handy request and response wrappers in paste.wsgiwrappers
- Handling of request-local module globals sanely in paste.registry
- Authentication using cookies in paste.auth.cookie and
paste.auth.auth_tkt; login form in paste.auth.form
- Authentication using OpenID in
paste.auth.open_id, using CAS in paste.auth.cas
- HTTP authentication in paste.auth.basic and
paste.auth.digest
- Dispatch to different authentication methods based on User-Agent, in
paste.auth.multi
- Grant roles based on IP addresses, in paste.auth.grantip
- Catch (optionally email) errors with extended tracebacks (using
Zope/ZPT conventions) in paste.exceptions
- During debugging, show tracebacks with information about each stack
frame, including an interactive prompt that runs in the individual
stack frames, in paste.evalexception.
- Catch errors presenting a cgitb-based
output, in paste.cgitb_catcher.
- Profile each request and append profiling information to the HTML,
in paste.debug.profile
- Capture print output and present it in the browser for
debugging, in paste.debug.prints
- Validate all HTML output from applications using the WDG Validator, appending any errors
or warnings to the page, in paste.debug.wdg_validator
- A file monitor to allow restarting the server when files have been
updated (for automatic restarting when editing code) in
paste.reloader
- A class for generating and traversing URLs, and creating associated
HTML code, in paste.url
- A small templating language (for internal use) in
paste.util.template
- A class to help with loops in templates, in paste.util.looper
- Import modules and objects given a string, in
paste.util.import_string
- Ordered dictionary that can have multiple values with the same key,
in paste.util.multidict
