PyHP enables users to integrate Python code into an HTML document in a similar manner to PHP.
As a software review, I would like to introduce PyHP - a system that embeds Python code in an HTML document, similar to PHP. This means that PyHP affords developers the ability to utilize the powerful capabilities of Python programming language within scripts that are structured similar to those in PHP.
PyHP operates using Python 2.0 language to parse elements within an HTML page. Initially, I was enamored with PHP, but I've since discovered that embedding code in HTML does not seem to be a logical approach to web design. While the ideation behind this system is impressive, I decided that it was not for me. However, if you're interested in exploring a new approach to web design using Python, check out the very cool Quixote Framework instead.
A while back, I tested another system called PMZ that operates quite similarly to PyHP. Unfortunately, I quickly discovered shortcomings with PMZ. Chief among them was the fact that PMZ doesn't execute its programs in a separate namespace. This defect causes the software to break if there is a defined variable, which shares a name with a vital value in the interpreter namespace. I found this fault unacceptable.
Luckily, PyHP can bypass this error using Python 2.0's InteractiveInterpreter class. Additionally, PyHP is designed to pair well with Apache's mod_python, which means it is accelerated when used in conjunction with it. Though it also operates well as a standalone application, PyHP caches modules that are imported and supports manual caching of variables, which helps it run even more effectively.
Finally, PMZ has a fixed set of headers that cannot be modified by a PMZ script. With PyHP, scriptwriters can specify headers to attach to their documents, even in the middle of an HTML file. Version 0.92 of PyHP includes better documentation, bug fixes, and has undergone thorough testing before release.
In conclusion, PyHP provides a flexible and straightforward way to embed Python code into HTML documents, making it an excellent option for developers seeking a new approach to web design.
