Design, build and test RESTful web services with the Django framework and Python Key Features Create efficient real-world RESTful web services with the latest Django framework Authenticate, secure, and integrate third-party packages efficiently in your Web Services Leverage the power of Python for faster Web Service development Book Description Django is a Python web framework that makes the web development process very easy. It reduces the amount of trivial code, which simplifies the creation of web applications and results in faster development. It is very powerful and a great choice for creating RESTful web services. If you are a Python developer and want to efficiently create RESTful web services with Django for your apps, then this is the right book for you. The book starts off by showing you how to install and configure the environment, required software, and tools to create RESTful web services with Django and the Django REST framework. We then move on to working with advanced serialization and migrations to interact with SQLite and non-SQL data sources. We will use the features included in the Django REST framework to improve our simple web service. Further, we will create API views to process diverse HTTP requests on objects, go through relationships and hyperlinked API management, and then discover the necessary steps to include security and permissions related to data models and APIs. We will also apply throttling rules and run tests to check that versioning works as expected. Next we will run automated tests to improve code coverage. By the end of the book, you will be able to build RESTful web services with Django. What you will learn The best way to build a RESTful Web Service or API with Django and the Django REST Framework Develop complex RESTful APIs from scratch with Django and the Django REST Framework Work with either SQL or NoSQL data sources Design RESTful Web Services based on application requirements Use third-party packages and extensions to perform common tasks Create automated tests for RESTful web services Debug, test, and profile RESTful web services with Django and the Django REST Framework Who this book is for This book is for Python developers who want to create RESTful web services with Django; you need to have a basic working knowledge of Django but no previous experience with RESTful web services is required.

MQTT Essentials - a Lightweight IoT Protocol

By: Gaston C. Hillar

Send and receive messages with the MQTT protocol for your IoT solutions.About This Book* Make your connected devices less prone to attackers by understanding practical security mechanisms* Dive deep into one of IoT's extremely lightweight machines to enable connectivity protocol with some real-world examples* Learn to take advantage of the features included in MQTT for IoT and Machine-to-Machine communications with complete real-life examplesWho This Book Is ForThis book is a great resource for developers who want to learn more about the MQTT protocol to apply it to their individual IoT projects. Prior knowledge of working with IoT devices is essential.What You Will Learn* Understand how MQTTv3.1 and v3.1.1 works in detail* Install and secure a Mosquitto MQTT broker by following best practices* Design and develop IoT solutions combined with mobile and web apps that use MQTT messages to communicate* Explore the features included in MQTT for IoT and Machine-to-Machine communications* Publish and receive MQTT messages with Python, Java, Swift, JavaScript, and Node.js* Implement the security best practices while setting up the MQTT Mosquitto brokerIn DetailThis step-by-step guide will help you gain a deep understanding of the lightweight MQTT protocol. We'll begin with the specific vocabulary of MQTT and its working modes, followed by installing a Mosquitto MQTT broker. Then, you will use best practices to secure the MQTT Mosquitto broker to ensure that only authorized clients are able to publish and receive messages. Once you have secured the broker with the appropriate configuration, you will develop a solution that controls a drone with Python.Further on, you will use Python on a Raspberry Pi 3 board to process commands and Python on Intel Boards (Joule, Edison and Galileo). You will then connect to the MQTT broker, subscribe to topics, send messages, and receive messages in Python. You will also develop a solution that interacts with sensors in Java by working with MQTT messages.Moving forward, you will work with an asynchronous API with callbacks to make the sensors interact with MQTT messages. Following the same process, you will develop an iOS app with Swift 3, build a website that uses WebSockets to connect to the MQTT broker, and control home automation devices with HTML5, JavaScript code, Node.js and MQTT messagesStyle and approachThis step-by-step guide describes the MQTT protocol for your IoT projects
