OxAPY is a fast HTTP server for Python, built in Rust. Declare routes with decorators, return plain Python values, and let the framework handle the rest.

Features​

  • Decorator-based routing with path parameters
  • Middleware with per-router scoping
  • Sessions, JWT authentication, CORS
  • Template rendering, static files, file streaming
  • Serializers with validation
  • Async handlers
  • Hot reload for development

A taste of OxAPY​

from oxapy import Oxapy, Router, get


@get("/")
def hello(request):
    return "Hello, World!"


@get("/hello/{name}")
def greet(request, name):
    return {"message": f"Hello, {name}!"}


Oxapy(("127.0.0.1", 5555)).attach(Router().route(hello).route(greet)).run()
curl http://127.0.0.1:5555/
# Hello, World!

curl http://127.0.0.1:5555/hello/World
# {"message": "Hello, World!"}
