Eve is an out-of-the-box, highly customizable and fully featured RESTful Web API framework that you can use to effortlessly build and deploy your own APIs
from eve import Eve
app = Eve()
app.run()The API is now live, ready to be consumed:
$ curl -i http://example.com/people/
HTTP/1.1 200 OKAll you need to bring your API online is a database, a configuration file
(defaults to settings.py) and a launch script. Overall, you will find that
configuring and fine-tuning your API is a very simple process.
