Minimalist Python HTTP Server

This project aims to create a simple HTTP server using Python. The server processes GET and POST requests from clients, writes or reads request data to a file, and offers an option to block scraping tools like curl.

Features

• GET and POST Support: Handles GET and POST requests from clients.
• File Operations: Writes and reads request data to/from sunucu_veri.txt.
• HTTP Responses: Generates HTTP responses for valid or invalid request formats.
• Curl Blocking: Provides an option to block client-side scraping.

Installation

Ensure Python 3.x is installed. To run the project, follow these steps:

git clone https://github.com/erendrcnn/minimal-http-server
cd sunucu
python sunucu.py

Usage

The server runs on localhost at port 8080 by default.

Start the Server

To start the server:

python sunucu.py

To prevent curl scraping:

python sunucu.py --prevent-scraping

Send Requests

To send a GET request to the server:

curl http://localhost:8080

To send a POST request to the server:

curl -X POST -d "data=example" http://localhost:8080
