Python

In this folder we have 2 popular python web frameworks. Both are heavily used to serve APIs as well as web applications.

Flask

The flask app only consist of the swagger ui Flasgger dependency. In this exmaple you can see that The endpoint for the swagger /api-docs is exposed but was never declared, and it's even missing from the Api specification itself, even though the paths are generated from the endpoints/paths exposed. To run the flask app you can use:

cd flask
python3 app.py

To list the routes use:

flask routes

To automate retrieval as part of a python script/bash:

python3 -c 'from app import app; app.url_map'

Django

Django is a more opininated and restricted Web framework, and a very robust API framework with djangorestframework to run the app:

cd django/demo


It also provides a list of all endpoints using the django-extensions:
```bash
pip install django-extensions

Ensure in settings.py that the DEBUG = True and that django-extensions is added to the INSTALLED_APPS array.

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'django_extensions'
...
]

Now, execute:

python manage.py show_urls
