Request Handlers

A request handler is a neutral name for what some other frameworks call “controllers” or “views”. It is simply a Python function that accepts the request and response objects as parameters, and returns a response.

from diva.templating import output, render

@output('index.html')
def index(request, response):
    return render(message='Hello, world!')

This defines a function called index that will respond to requests by rendering the template index.html.
