Abstract: Design, develop, test, and deploy your Python web applications easily Walks through building a complete Python web application using CherryPy 3 The CherryPy HTTP:Python interface Use CherryPy with other Python libraries Design, security, testing, and deployment In Detail CherryPy is a Python library for web development that allows developers to build web applications in the same way as any other object-oriented Python program. Enriched by several years of active development, it has become one of the most established toolkits for building solid and high-performance web applications in Python. CherryPy abstracts the complex low-level HTTP protocol into an easy-to-use interface that respects Python idioms. The library aims at being simple to learn for a beginner while offering the most advanced features to fluent Python developers. For these reasons CherryPy was chosen to be at the heart of the popular and feature-rich TurboGears web framework. CherryPy-powered web applications are stand-alone Python applications with their own embedded multi-threaded web server, but can also run behind Apache or IIS for scalability. This book covers the CherryPy library for Python web development from its history and installation through its main features and core concepts to its integration with Python and other products to construct, test, and deploy a sample photoblog application. The author Sylvain Hellegouarch is dedicated to the development of free software projects and has been coordinating and administrating the community efforts around the CherryPy project since 2004. The approach based on an example application introduces many other common Python libraries, providing transferable skills also relevant for non-web Python projects

Sylvain Hellegouarch is an IT Software Consultant dedicated to the development of free software projects such as CherryPy. Since 2004, he has been coordinating and administrating the community efforts around the project providing support for newcomers and seasoned developers, alike. In 2006, he developed 'bridge' and 'amplee', two Python-based projects centered on XML and the upcoming Atom Publishing Protocol respectively.
He has also been deeply involved in The Viberavetions Project, a comprehensive grassroots solution for independent artists and musicians to better connect with consumers, as well as the nuXleus project, a platform designed for faster, more reliable inter- and intra-application and personal communication.
Born in France, Sylvain graduated with a degree in Computer Science from South Brittany University, Lorient, France in 2002. Since then he has been working as an IT consultant for a variety of companies, both small and large. He currently resides in the United Kingdom.
Throwing myself into the adventure of writing a book was a challenge I had in mind for a while before Packt Publishing came along and I do thank them for trusting me on the CherryPy book. Overall writing a book is a task you can't carry alone; editors and reviewers are critical to the release of a good quality book. I thoroughly thank Robert Brewer and Rmi Delon for undertaking the task of reviewing my work and I much appreciate how difficult it has been. Both contributed complementary feedback that hopefully will make you enjoy reading this book. Beyond that I want to thank Robert for making CherryPy such a fantastic product to use; I hope this book will show how professional CherryPy is. Of course all of this would not have been possible if Rmi, the founder of the project, had not given the keys and his full trust to the community for carrying the project. In addition I would like to thank Christian Wyglendowski who has done a fantastic job at supporting the community for so long with such indulgence and sense of humor. I would also like to give thanks to my contacts at Packt Publishing, Nanda Padmanabhan, Patricia Weir, and Suneet Amrute for their support and patience throughout the making of this book. They have trusted me and listened to my concerns in a way that I can only be grateful for.
I also want to acknowledge the support I received from folks at the Viberavetions project especially M. David Peterson who has become a close friend, without forgetting Uche Ogbuji, Russ Miles and Kurt Cagle who have all shared their views at times when I needed them.
I heartily want to thank all my friends who have always respected my passion for being part of open-source projects and communities while reminding me that there is more to life than lines of code. They have been a breath of fresh air to me throughout these years and a great comfort when times weren't good: one person particularly who has taken a great place in my life and who has always pushed me ahead.
Lastly I want to deeply thank my beloved family for always being discreetly there for me and supporting my decisions even when they did not look like they were in my best interests. You have never failed me and the work I have put into this book is a way for me to thank you for that. Merci vous.
This book is for the CherryPy community and beyond.

Over the last few years, the boom that the World has experienced with the Internet breakthrough has pushed almost every programming language or platform to welcome the rise of web development toolkits, libraries, and frameworks.
The Python programming language has grown a rather large list of these environments though apart from a few of them such as Zope and Twisted most have a fairly small community. It is in this context that CherryPy came into existence when Rmi Delon, its creator, decided that he needed a tool that would work as he wanted for his own personal projects. He then released CherryPy under a free software license so that anyone could use, distribute, and contribute to the project.
CherryPy is a Python library implementing the HTTP protocol, which is at the very core of the Web, using common Python idioms. On top of that CherryPy offers its own view and concepts on how to help a developer to build web applications while being minimally intrusive through its own simple and straightforward API.
This book will guide you through the CherryPy library with the aim of giving you the key to make the best of it in your own web applications.
The first four chapters are dedicated to CherryPy, providing information ranging from its history to an in-depth presentation of its key features. The rest of the book will then take you into the development of a photoblog application. Each chapter tries to provide enough background to allow you to ponder the why and how of each decision made. Indeed writing software applications is not a precise science and compromises need to be undertaken for the better, however, the truth is that writing software usually does not go quite as planned. I have written this book with the hope that in the end you would have learnt much more than using a Python library.
