Create python template

[shiipou]

Template must run the counter app in Python

We choose to use the same app for each template to help new developers to see how to implement they app when switching languages.

Tasks to do:

Setting up the default app:

• Initialize the app template-python#21
• Create handle_manifest function template-python#2
• Create handle_widget function template-python#3
• Create handle_listener function template-python#4
• Create handle_resource function template-python#5
• Create get_document function template-python#6
• Create create_document function template-python#7
• Create update_document function template-python#8
• Create delete_document function template-python#9
• Create execute_query function template-python#10

Setting up widgets:

• Create root widget template-python#11
• Create home widget template-python#12
• Create menu widget template-python#13
• Create counter widget template-python#14
• Create loading widget template-python#15

Setting up listeners:

• Create onEnvStart listener template-python#17
• Create onUserFirstJoin listener template-python#18
• Create increment listener template-python#19

Config lenra with Dofigen

• Add /lenra.yml Dofigen file for template configuration template-python#20

Hi @Sidd2024,
First of all, thank you for you interest and your help.

This epic contain a list of task to create a new template, each task must be small so it won't be hard for you.

There is two way to create a template :

• By creating a web-server like in the NodeJS template
  or
• By creating a cli tools that read from stdin like the rust template and the V template

In all cases, you have to parse the input JSON string to know what action you have to do in your tool.

For example in the V template (template-v is a CLI tool that read from stdin),
I read stdin, then I find if request ask for the app manifest with an empty request, UI widget with any request that contain the widget key, for listener call with any request that contain the action key, and for resources with any request that contain the resources key in the first level of the json map.

When done, I just have to find the function to call with the widget's name, action's name or resource's name to get the app work and call it with the given arguments.

If you need more info, you can contact me at any time. I'll try to answer you quickly as I can.

The counter app we create in all template must display like this image because that the simplest way to show most of functionality Lenra provide

@Sidd2024 You can post PR to this repository to confirm your entry for Hacktoberfest : https://github.com/lenra-io/template-python

I also create many Issues that represent each task you have to do.
You can do one PR for each task if you want, that allow you to validate your Hacktoberfest just by doing the template.
