hypernova-python

A Python client for the Hypernova service

Getting Started

Install the python client from pypi

pip install hypernova

Once you have the client installed and an instance of the Hypernova service running, you can making requests is easy.

Example

import hypernova

renderer = hypernova.Renderer('http://localhost')
html = renderer.render({'MyComponent.js': {'name': 'Foo'}})

Configuration

You can pass configuration options to Renderer at initialization.

• url: The address of the Hypernova service is listening, including port if necessary
• plugins: A list of plugins to use
• timeout: Number of seconds to wait for a response from the Hypernova service
• headers: Dictionary of HTTP headers to override the default. You will want to include 'Content-Type': 'application/json'

Plugins

You can implement custom events and alter requests through the Plugin Lifecycle. All lifecycle methods are optional.

Example

import hypernova
import random

class MyPlugin(object):
    def prepare_request(self, current_jobs, original_jobs):
        job = current_jobs.get('MyComponent.js')
        job.update({'random_int_for_reasons': random.randint(0, 100))
        return current_jobs

renderer = hypernova.Renderer('http://localhost', [MyPlugin()])
