from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server # Every WSGI application must have an application object - a callable # object that accepts two arguments. For that purpose, we're going to # use a function (note that you're not limited to a function, you can # use a class for example). The first argument passed to the function # is a dictionary containing CGI-style environment variables and the # second variable is the callable object (see PEP 333). def hello_world_app(environ, start_response): status = '200 OK' # HTTP Status headers = [('Content-type', 'text/plain; charset=utf-8')] # HTTP Headers start_response(status, headers) # The returned object is going to be printed return [b"Hello World"] with make_server('', 8000, hello_world_app) as httpd: print("Serving on port 8000...") # Serve until process is killed httpd.serve_forever()
