Project Template for a high-performance RESTful web service in Python, using falcon-jsonify middleware and MongoEngine Object-Document-Mapper.

• Install PyPy (or just use Python 2.7) and MongoDB
• Check database credentials at src/settings.py
• Install dependencies on a virtualenv:

virtualenv -p /usr/bin/pypy env
source env/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

./run_server.sh

Listening at localhost:8000. Gunicorn is used as WSGI HTTP Server.

Demo routes:

• POST /api/example {"email": "value"} create an item
• GET /api/example return all items
