Macaron includes a plugin which simplifies the use of Bottle in your web applications. Bottle is a micro web framework for Python. To use it, simply, you just call bottle.install() with MacaronPlugin instance. After that you use it the way you’ve always done it.
Each module of Macaron(ORM) and Bottle(Routing/Templates) consists of only a single file. So you can use a full-stack web framework by using only two files.
This is sample of using MacaronPlugin in Bottle web application. And runnable sample is found at examples/bottle/ in the source tree.
#!/usr/bin/env python
from bottle import *
import macaron
# install MacaronPlugin instance
DB_FILE = "bookmark.db"
install(macaron.MacaronPlugin(DB_FILE))
# Class definition
class Bookmark(macaron.Model): pass
# Route definition
@route("/hello")
