Netlify + uProc Integrations

Netlify is a static web hosting service that offers free plans and paid plans. Netlify is also a continuous delivery platform for deploying web projects. uProc is a lightweight framework that allows developers to write code quickly using any programming language.

In the first part of my article, I will explain why the integration of Netlify and uProc is valuable, and how it can be integrated. In the second part of my article, I will explain the benefits of the integration of Netlify and uProc.

Integration of Netlify and uProc

The integration of Netlify and uProc can be done by configuring each of them with the other’s URL. uProc has a feature called “source code generator”. It uses API calls to get the data from https://uproc.org/. When you develop a project with uProc, you need to give the source code generator a URL to get data from. The source code generator will get the data from uProc.org, and then pass the data to your project. You can use it in your project, like this:

https://uproc.org/source?name=John&age=20

It will return something like this:

name. John age. 20

If you want to send back some data from your project, you can configure it in your uProc project settings like this:

https://uproc.org/source?name=John&age=20&test=true

When you ask for data from Netlify, it returns JSON data. We can use that JSON data in our uProc project like this:

https://uproc.org/source?nethost=https://my-netlify-url&test=true&test2=true&test3=true&test4=true&test5=true&test6=true&test7=true&test8=true&test9=true&test10=true&test11=true&test12=true&test13=true&test14=true&test15=true&test16=true&test17=true&test18=true&test19=true&test20=true&test21=true&test22=true&test23=true&test24=true&test25=true&test26=true&test27=true&test28=true&test29=true&test30=true

This information comes from our configuration in Netlify. Now we have access to all these variables. test1, test2, test3, etc. This makes integration easy because we don’t have to worry about manually passing custom data between the two services. All we have to do is get access to the Netlify variables in our uProc source code creator. It’s as simple as declaring these variables like this:

{% for variable in site_data %} <p>{{ variable.key }}</p> {% endfor %} {{site_data}}

Now we can access all of Netlify’s data in our uProc source code creator. There are many ways we could do this. For example, we could add a method to our file called renderSiteData(. and access all of Netlify’s data through it like this:

def renderSiteData(). site_data = { 'site_id' . site_id, 'site_url' . site_url, 'host' . host, 'origin' . origin } return site_data; def renderContent(self). self.renderSiteData(. return "Hello World" app = uProcApp(. app.exec_with(app. app.get('/'. #=> "Hello World" app.renderSiteData(. #=> {"site_id". 1, "site_url". "https://cdn-webstatic-a.akamaihd.net/hls/content/1117/vid-prod/2018/01/09/vid-prod_rqj1vw0y_default_index8-quality-15-large-169.jpg", "host". "cdn-webstatic-a.akamaihd.net", "origin". "https://cdn-webstatic-a.akamaihd.net"} app.renderSiteData(.get('site_id'. #=> 1 app.renderSiteData(.get('host'. #=> "cdn-webstatic-a.akamaihd.net" app.renderSiteData(.get('origin'. #=> "https://cdn-webstatic-a.akamaihd.net" app.renderSiteData(.get('page_path'. #=> "/" app.renderSiteData(.get('title'. #=> " app.renderSiteData(.get('subtitle'. #=> " app.renderSiteData(.get('favicon'. #=> None app.renderSiteData(.get('author'. #=> None app.renderSiteData(.get('description'. #=> None app.renderSiteData(.get('tags'. #=> [] app.renderSiteData(.get('publish_time'. #=> None app.renderSiteData(.get('cache_time'. #=> None app.renderSiteData(.get('last_updated'. #=> None app.renderSiteData(.get('slug'. #=> "website" app.renderSiteData(.get('footer'. #=> None app.renderSiteData(.get('website_detected'. #=> None app.renderSiteData(.get('theme_name'. #=> None app.renderSiteData(.get('theme_version'. #=> None app.renderSiteData(.get('theme_url'. #=> None if __name__ == '__main__'. uproc = UprocApp(. uproc = UprocApp(app = app. uproc = UprocApp(app = app, template = 'mytemplate', version = '1.0'. if __name__ == '__main__'. app = uProcApp(. app = uProcApp(app = app. app = uProcApp(app = app, template = 'mytemplate', version = '1.0'. if __name__ == '__main__'. import sys import unittest class AppTest(unittest.TestCase). def setUp(self). self._app = UprocApp(app='mytemplate', version='1'. try. self._app = UprocApp(app='mytemplate', version='1', template='mytemplate'. except AttributeError. pass if sys.version >= '3'. unittest.skip("requires Python 3". else. self._app = UprocApp(. def test_baseapp(self). self._assertEqual(self._app(), ''. def test_template(self). self._assertEqual(self._app(), 'mytemplate'. if __name__ == '__main__'. unittest.main()
