Overview of this book

Today’s developers need something more powerful and customizable when it comes to web app development. They require effective tools to build something unique to meet their specific needs, and not simply glue a bunch of things together built by others. This is where Sanic comes into the picture. Built to be unopinionated and scalable, Sanic is a next-generation Python framework and server tuned for high performance. This Sanic guide starts by helping you understand Sanic’s purpose, significance, and use cases. You’ll learn how to spot different issues when building web applications, and how to choose, create, and adapt the right solution to meet your requirements. As you progress, you’ll understand how to use listeners, middleware, and background tasks to customize your application. The book will also take you through real-world examples, so you will walk away with practical knowledge and not just code snippets. By the end of this web development book, you’ll have gained the knowledge you need to design, build, and deploy high-performance, scalable, and maintainable web applications with the Sanic framework.

This book has so far assumed that we are building out endpoints using the traditional method of combining HTTP methods with thoughtful paths to point to specific resources. In this approach, web servers are responsible for being the interface between a client and the source of data (for example, a database). The concept of GraphQL pushes all of that aside and allows the client to directly request what information it wants to receive. There is a single endpoint (usually /graphql) and a single HTTP method (usually POST). The single route definition is meant to be used for both retrieving data and causing state changes in the application. This all happens through a set of queries that are sent as the body on that single endpoint. GraphQL was meant to revolutionize the way we build the...
