This is a simple Python webserver that I am writing using asyncio. The purpose of this app is to be a microframework that can host my monitoring app. I believe if you are looking to write your own socket-based Python webserver, this app is a good starting point.
from web.server import app
class controller(object):
def index(self):
response = '<html><body>Hello World!</body></html>'
return response
app.start(controller)11/20/2020 - Fixed 404 error page.
8/21/2020 - Version 0.2b with templating is now complete.
7/17/2020 - I've been making some changes to the web server in my monitoring project. These should migrate here eventually. I started a template engine and changed the server to run as a package.
12/27/2018 - Did some minor code cleanup.
12/16/2018 - Cleaned up some code an added some examples to the wsite.py file for authentication.
12/16/2018 - Added in redirects, 404 not found, and possibly fixed adding additional cookies. There is a lot of ulgy code that needs to be cleaned up and a few more things that need to be added to application variables. As this moves forward I will also make a load function to load config values. I will also post a few more simple examples of how to do basic authentication, etc.
12/14/2018 - Added in parsing to split urls. App now splits a URL and GET arguments. It still needs some work. If the path is /home/login/?user=phil&password=pass, it would call the home function and pass login, phil, and pass as arguments. I also worked a bit on cookies. I'm having a bit more luck using my own code over the http cookie module. I'll probably work on redirects and errors next.
12/13/2018 - I haven't posted much code but I have been working on this quite a bit. I've had lots of setbacks trying to figure out sessions. I updated the server code today with something that should work. The app is making progress but it is still lacking a lot of features. I plan on improving cookie handling, including redirects, error pages, and figuring out a good way to split urls and arguments.
11/30/2018 - Updated the server to use a persistant cookie for session. I will probably make the cookie setting optional so it can be better used for authentication with expiration. Also cleaned up some code sections. The App will be quite ugly for awhile.
