}

@app.route('/')
@use_args(hello_args)
def index(args):
    return 'Hello ' + args['name']

if __name__ == '__main__':

Changelog

0.6.0 (2014-09-23)

  • Add validate parameter to Parser.parse and Parser.use_args. Allows validation of the full parsed output.

  • If allow_missing is True on an Arg for which None is explicitly passed, the value will still be present in the parsed arguments dictionary.

  • Backwards-incompatible: Parser's parse_* methods return webargs.core.Missing if the value cannot be found on the request. NOTE: webargs.core.Missing will not show up in the final output of Parser.parse.

  • Fix bug with parsing empty request bodies with TornadoParser.

0.5.1 (2014-08-30)

  • Fix behavior of Arg's allow_missing parameter when multiple=True.

  • Fix bug in tornadoparser that caused parsing JSON arguments to fail.

0.5.0 (2014-07-27)

  • Fix JSON parsing in Flask parser when Content-Type header contains more than just application/json. Thanks Samir Uppaluru for reporting.

  • Backwards-incompatible: The use parameter to Arg is called before type conversion occurs. Thanks Eric Wang for the suggestion.

  • Tested on Tornado>=4.0.

0.4.0 (2014-05-04)

  • Custom target handlers can be defined using the Parser.target_handler decorator.

  • Error handler can be specified using the Parser.error_handler decorator.

  • Args can define their request target by passing in a target argument.

  • Backwards-incompatible: DEFAULT_TARGETS is now a class member of Parser. This allows subclasses to override it.

0.3.4 (2014-04-27)

  • Fix bug that caused use_args to fail on class-based views in Flask.

  • Add allow_missing parameter to Arg.

0.3.3 (2014-03-20)

  • Awesome contributions from the open-source community!

  • Add use_kwargs decorator. Thanks @venuatu.

  • Tornado support thanks to @jvrsantacruz.

  • Tested on Python 3.4.

0.3.2 (2014-03-04)

  • Fix bug with parsing JSON in Flask and Bottle.

0.3.1 (2014-03-03)

  • Remove print statements in core.py. Oops.

0.3.0 (2014-03-02)

  • Add support for repeated parameters (#1).

  • Backwards-incompatible: All parse_* methods take arg as their fourth argument.

  • Add error_handler param to Parser.

0.2.0 (2014-02-26)

  • Bottle support.

  • Add targets param to Parser. Allows setting default targets.

  • Add files target.

0.1.0 (2014-02-16)

  • First release.

  • Parses JSON, querystring, forms, headers, and cookies.

  • Support for Flask and Django.
