create command, it should give you an example of a full-featured project file structure: https://github.com/bocadilloproject/bocadillo-cliWe’re still working towards being able to easily split an app into multiple files :)
Anyway good job, there are features that look cool
Hi Ilyes! Thanks for pitching in, this is an interesting question!
Actually, Bocadillo uses Starlette as an ASGI toolkit, not as a framework. For example, we reuse Starlette’s HTTP request representation (the Request class), as well as various ASGI middleware classes (eg the CORS middleware) and some other features (eg background tasks). But Bocadillo has a different design for views, and other features completely separate from Starlette (eg dependency injection). This hasn’t happened yet, but I’d be very much keen to bring generic enough features back into Starlette (in fact, I am personally a contributor to Starlette and uvicorn). :)
OTOH, it is true that FastAPI can be seen as a framework of a framework. For example, its app class is a direct subclass of ‘Starlette’ class. I think tiangolo is involved in both Starlette and uvicorn as well though.
If I use bocadillo, I will mention to my community (video games so also some devs) to increase the visibility of your project!

from .app import app
ImportError: attempted relative import with no known parent package
INFO: Stopping reloader process [18712]From the tutorial it seems like templates should be in the same subdirectory as app.py but jinja2 throws an error if it is
The docs say that it should be placed in the same directory relative to where the app is run (ie using uvicorn), so that means the location you put it at should work. Doesn’t it?
If I run uvicorn asgi:app --reload in the second demo subdirectory, it errors:
Yes, that is expected, because the generated demo package uses relative imports, which you can’t use in Python unless you’re running from outside of that package. We should probably add a warning/caveat in the docs
https://safe.menlosecurity.com/https://bocadilloproject.github.io/guides/agnostic/templates.html#how-templates-are-discovered
shows the templates directory at the same level as app.py. However, app.py is created in the second demo subdirectory and when I tried running there it caused the above error. So I was able to make it work but it seems inconsistent with the documentation.
Hi peeps, just to let you know that I am planning to close this Gitter chat soon.
The experience I’ve had is that most of the discussions taking place here would benefit from being out there in the open (ie in GitHub issues), indexed, searchable and actionable.
Also, while I enjoy answering questions, the chat or DM system here has been taking up on my attention, and it would be much easier to manage via issues.
So I invite everyone to start using issues for questions (even simple ones!), since this chat should be closed by next week. 👍 Thanks!
slack because of ecosystem + mobile app, and I've also heard of https://twist.com which is a slack alternative
