Moulinette
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
The *moulinette* is a Python package that allows to quickly and easily
|
|
prototype interfaces for your application.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Overview
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
Initially, the moulinette was an application made for the
|
|
[YunoHost](https://yunohost.org/) project in order to regroup all its
|
|
related operations into a single program called *moulinette*. Those
|
|
operations were available from a command-line interface and a Web server
|
|
providing an API. Moreover, the usage of these operations (e.g.
|
|
required/optional arguments) was defined into a simple yaml file -
|
|
called *actionsmap*. This file was parsed in order to construct an
|
|
*ArgumentParser* object and to parse the command arguments to process
|
|
the proper operation.
|
|
|
|
During a long refactoring with the goal of unify both interfaces, the
|
|
idea to separate the core of the YunoHost operations has emerged.
|
|
The core kept the same name *moulinette* and try to follow the same
|
|
initial principle. An [Actions Map](#actions-map) - which defines
|
|
available operations and their usage - is parsed and it's used to
|
|
process an operation from several unified [Interfaces](#interfaces). It
|
|
also supports a configuration mechanism - which allows to restrict an
|
|
operation on an interface for example (see
|
|
[Authenticators](#authenticators)).
