Other Servers
|
||
|
|
=============
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are popular servers written in Python that allow the execution of
|
||
|
|
WSGI applications as well. Keep in mind though that some of these servers
|
||
|
|
were written for very specific applications and might not work as well for
|
||
|
|
standard WSGI application such as Flask powered ones.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Tornado
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`Tornado`_ is an open source version of the scalable, non-blocking web
|
||
|
|
server and tools that power `FriendFeed`_. Because it is non-blocking and
|
||
|
|
uses epoll, it can handle thousands of simultaneous standing connections,
|
||
|
|
which means it is ideal for real-time web services. Integrating this
|
||
|
|
service with Flask is a trivial task::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
from tornado.wsgi import WSGIContainer
|
||
|
|
from tornado.httpserver import HTTPServer
|
||
|
|
from tornado.ioloop import IOLoop
|
||
|
|
from yourapplication import app
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
http_server = HTTPServer(WSGIContainer(app))
|
||
|
|
http_server.listen(5000)
|
||
|
|
IOLoop.instance().start()
|
||
|

Gevent
|
||
|
|
-------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`Gevent`_ is a coroutine-based Python networking library that uses
|
||
|
|
`greenlet`_ to provide a high-level synchronous API on top of `libevent`_
|
||
|
|
event loop::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
from gevent.wsgi import WSGIServer
|
||
|
|
from yourapplication import app
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
http_server = WSGIServer(('', 5000), app)
|
||
|
|
http_server.serve_forever()
