Interact with the world and rapidly prototype IoT applications using PythonKey Features[*] Rapidly prototype even complex IoT applications with Python and put them to practical use[*] Enhance your IoT skills with the most up-to-date applicability in the field of wearable tech, smart environments, and home automation[*] Interact with hardware, sensors, and actuators and control your DIY IoT projects through PythonBook DescriptionInternet of Things (IoT) is revolutionizing the way devices/things interact with each other. And when you have IoT with Python on your side, you'll be able to build interactive objects and design them. This book lets you stay at the forefront of cutting-edge research on IoT. We'll open up the possibilities using tools that enable you to interact with the world, such as Intel Galileo Gen 2, sensors, and other hardware. You will learn how to read, write, and convert digital values to generate analog output by programming Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) in Python. You will get familiar with the complex communication system included in the board, so you can interact with any shield, actuator, or sensor. Later on, you will not only see how to work with data received from the sensors, but also perform actions by sending them to a specific shield. You'll be able to connect your IoT device to the entire world, by integrating WiFi, Bluetooth, and Internet settings. With everything ready, you will see how to work in real time on your IoT device using the MQTT protocol in python.By the end of the book, you will be able to develop IoT prototypes with Python, libraries, and tools.What you will learn[*] Prototype and develop IoT solutions from scratch with Python as the programming language[*] Develop IoT projects with Intel Galileo Gen 2 board along with Python[*] Work with the different components included in the boards using Python and the MRAA library[*] Interact with sensors, actuators, and shields[*] Work with UART and local storage[*] Interact with any electronic device that supports the I2C bus[*] Allow mobile devices to interact with the board[*] Work with real-time IoT and cloud services[*] Understand Big Data and IoT analyticsWho this book is forThe book is ideal for Python developers who want to explore the tools in the Python ecosystem in order to build their own IoT applications and work on IoT-related projects. It is also a very useful resource for developers with experience in other programming languages that want to easily prototype IoT applications with the Intel Galileo Gen 2 board.

Explore the best tools and techniques to create lightweight, maintainable, and scalable Python web servicesKey FeaturesCombine Python with different data sources to build complex RESTful APIs from scratchConfigure and fine-tune your APIs using the best tools and techniques availableUse command-line and GUI tools to test CRUD operations performed by RESTful Web Services or APIsBook DescriptionPython is the language of choice for millions of developers worldwide that builds great web services in RESTful architecture. This second edition of Hands-On RESTful Python Web Services will cover the best tools you can use to build engaging web services.This book shows you how to develop RESTful APIs using the most popular Python frameworks and all the necessary stacks with Python, combined with related libraries and tools. You’ll learn to incorporate all new features of Python 3.7, Flask 1.0.2, Django 2.1, Tornado 5.1, and also a new framework, Pyramid. As you advance through the chapters, you will get to grips with each of these frameworks to build various web services, and be shown use cases and best practices covering when to use a particular framework.You’ll then successfully develop RESTful APIs with all frameworks and understand how each framework processes HTTP requests and routes URLs. You’ll also discover best practices for validation, serialization, and deserialization. In the concluding chapters, you will take advantage of specific features available in certain frameworks such as integrated ORMs, built-in authorization and authentication, and work with asynchronous code. At the end of each framework, you will write tests for RESTful APIs and improve code coverage.By the end of the book, you will have gained a deep understanding of the stacks needed to build RESTful web services.What you will learnSelect the most appropriate framework based on requirementsDevelop complex RESTful APIs from scratch using PythonUse requests handlers, URL patterns, serialization, and validationsAdd authentication, authorization, and interaction with ORMs and databasesDebug, test, and improve RESTful APIs with four frameworksDesign RESTful APIs with frameworks and create automated testsWho this book is forThis book is for web developers who have a working knowledge of Python and would like to build amazing web services by taking advantage of the various frameworks of Python. You should have some knowledge of RESTful APIs.

Create scalable applications by taking advantage of NoSQL document databases on the cloud with .NET CoreKey FeaturesWork with the latest available tools related to Cosmos DBLearn to work with the latest version of the .NET Core SDK, C# and the SQL APIWork with a database service that doesn’t require you to use an ORM and provides flexibilityBook DescriptionCosmos DB is a NoSQL database service included in Azure that is continuously adding new features and has quickly become one of the most innovative services found in Azure, targeting mission-critical applications at a global scale. This book starts off by showing you the main features of Cosmos DB, their supported NoSQL data models and the foundations of its scalable and distributed architecture. You will learn to work with the latest available tools that simplify your tasks with Cosmos DB and reduce development costs, such as the Data Explorer in the Azure portal, Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer, and the Cosmos DB Emulator.Next, move on to working with databases and document collections. We will use the tools to run schema agnostic queries against collections with the Cosmos DB SQL dialect and understand their results. Then, we will create a first version of an application that uses the latest .NET Core SDK to interact with Cosmos DB. Next, we will create a second version of the application that will take advantage of important features that the combination of C# and the .NET Core SDK provides, such as POCOs and LINQ queries. By the end of the book, you will be able to build an application that works with a Cosmos DB NoSQL document database with C#, the .NET Core SDK, LINQ, and JSON.What you will learnUnderstand the supported NoSQL data models and the resource hierarchyLearn the latest tools to work with Cosmos DB accounts and collectionsReduce your development costs by working with the Cosmos DB EmulatorUnderstand request units, automatic indexing, partitioning, and billingBuild an application with C#, Cosmos DB, .NET Core SDK, and the SQL APIPerform asynchronous operations with databases, and documents in C#Work with models, and customize serialization of LINQ queriesWho this book is forThis book is for C# developers. You do not require any knowledge of Azure Cosmos DB, but familiarity with the Azure platform is expected.
