Python Application Skeleton 
=========================================
The following code is the basic structure of a Python Application.


Prerequisites
------------------------------------------

To run this code you need:
 - A running Python 3.x Environment
 - A valid WASDI Account
 - A valid Config file
 
If this is not clear, you probably need to take a look to the :doc:`Python Tutorial <../ProgrammingTutorials/PythonTutorial>` before.



Recipe 
------------------------------------------

This is the basic structure of a WASDI Application. 

.. note::
	The main file **MUST** be called myProcessor.py. You can then add all the libraries, files and module you may want to code or include

.. code-block:: python

   import wasdi   
   
   def run():
       wasdi.wasdiLog("Here I can start to code")
   
   
   if __name__ == '__main__':
       wasdi.init("./config.json")
       run()

What it does:

 - import the library
 - handle **__main__** in the file
 - define a **run()** method
 - initialize the lib
 - call the **run()** method
	

.. note::
	This structure is mandatory if you plan to deploy your application in WASDI. To use the library only as a client, this is not necessary.
