In this chapter, we will work with Pyramid 1.10 to create a RESTful Web API that performs CRUD operations on a simple data source. We will look at the following topics:

• Design a RESTful API to interact with a simple data source
• Understand the tasks performed by each HTTP method
• Set up the virtual environment with Pyramid 1.10
• Create a new Pyramid project based on a template
• Create the model
• Use a dictionary as a repository
• Create a Marshmallow schema to validate, serialize, and deserialize the model
• Work with view callables and view configurations
• Understand and configure view handlers
• Make HTTP requests to the API with command-line tools
