Bartender – WSGI App Auto-loader¶
Bartender is a WSGI application for managing other WSGI applications at runtime. It uses stevedore to load the applications and werkzeug to dispatch incoming requests based on the URL path.

Installation¶
Python Versions¶
bartender is being developed and tested under Python 2.7.
Basic Installation¶
Bartender should be installed into the same site-packages area where the WSGI applications are installed (either a virtualenv or the global site-packages). You may need administrative privileges to do that. The easiest way to install it is using pip:
$ pip install bartender
or:
$ sudo pip install bartender
Source Code¶
The source is hosted on github: https://github.com/dhellmann/bartender
Reporting Bugs¶
Please report bugs through the github project: https://github.com/dhellmann/bartender/issues
For Developers¶
If you would like to contribute to bartender directly, these instructions should help you get started. Patches, bug reports, and feature requests are all welcome through the GitHub project. Contributions in the form of patches or pull requests are easier to integrate and will receive priority attention.
Building Documentation¶
The documentation for bartender is written in reStructuredText and converted to HTML using Sphinx. You will need the following packages in order to build the docs:
- Sphinx
- docutils
Once all of the tools are installed into a virtualenv using pip, run
python setup.py build_sphinx to generate the HTML version of the
documentation:
$ python setup.py build_sphinx
running build_sphinx
creating build
creating build/sphinx
creating build/sphinx/doctrees
creating build/sphinx/html

Running Tests¶
The test suite for bartender uses tox, which must be installed
separately (pip install tox).
To run the tests under Python 2.7, run tox from the top level
directory of the git repository.
To run tests under a single version of Python, specify the appropriate environment when running tox:
$ tox -e py27
Add new tests by modifying an existing file or creating new script in
the tests directory.
