How can I create an local webserver for my python scripts?
I'm looking to use a local webserver to run a series of python scripts for the user. For various unavoidable reasons, the python script must run locally, not on a server. As a result, I'll be using HTML+browser as the UI, which I'm comfortable with, for the front end. I've been looking, therefore, for a lightweight web server that can e...

Using SimpleHTTPServer for unit testing
Hello, I'm writing a Python module that wraps out a certain web service API. It's all REST, so relatively straightforward to implement.

Real time embeddable http server library required
Having looked at several available http server libraries I have not yet found what I am looking for and am sure I can't be the first to have this set of requirements.

But I wander if I can make more complicated things. For example, somebody uses...

I really like how I can easily share files on a network using the SimpleHTTPServer, but I wish there was an option like "download entire directory". Is there an easy (one liner) way to implement this? Thanks ...
Why does a background task block the response in SimpleHTTPServer?
I'm writing a simple browser-based front end that should be able to launch a background task and then get progress from it. I want the browser to receive a response saying whether the task launched successfully, and then poll to determine when it is done. However, the presence of a background task seems to be stopping the XMLHttpReques...
