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() |
