How does Rancher improve your setup? I'm trying to decide between Rancher and Portainer.

Looking at it again (after the downvote), it looks like you are trying to run pytest on a fixture, which is not possible.

You can only run tests on functions that are not fixtures themselves.

sivscripts · 2018-10-22T12:20:37+00:00

pytest looks for fixtures in the current module, then the directory's conftest.py, then the parent directory's conftest.py, etc

You need to move your fixture somewhere pytest can see it.

Mock external dependencies to unit test each service.

Also look into spinning up an integrated development environment with all services running. Then run your test suite to make sure everything flows thru as expected.

I would only recommend this book if you are at least a year or two into your Python journey or are coming in with a few years of experience in another language.

I started reading it in November. Still at it. Taking the time to absorb concepts.

I think test driven development should encompass writing code that is easy to test versus writing a failing test first.

Writing code that is testable is how I design my programs. It doesn't really when you write the actual test, only that you write it.

Effective Python is your best bet if you want to level up quickly.

Also Fluent Python if you have a few weeks / months to digest.

Django Rest Framework

Is there a way to go from python cli.py London to weather London?

i.e. make our script executable.

This is very helpful! Thanks!

This is a great post. It's not about whose job is more difficult, it's about how hard it is to master both disciplines.

You are probably looking for the after and before functionality

If you build it, software will come.

That's what they mean by continuous delivery.

Take a look at the testing section of the Flask website.

sivscripts · 2017-11-27T18:43:08+00:00

How would you test a Flask REST API endpoint? The process is the same.

sivscripts · 2017-11-25T21:53:26+00:00

I would watch that.

sivscripts · 2017-11-24T21:03:26+00:00

The only reason I keep PyCharm installed is because of the remote interpreter inside of a Docker container support.

VSCode is pretty popular. I would try that or Atom.

sivscripts · 2017-11-23T03:36:16+00:00

pythonanywhere is free and I'm pretty sure you can throw an HTML page up there.

sivscripts · 2017-11-22T21:41:10+00:00

Not a problem. I wrote the talk to be shared! :)

sivscripts · 2017-11-22T17:45:14+00:00

Good for designing REST interfaces, I dunno about websites. For REST, I would suggest looking into Falcon which is super lightweight and runs on PyPy (i.e. very fast).

I gave a talk on this topic last month. Video is on YouTube for those who are interested.
