Python 3 simple http server with GET functional-CodePudding

I can't find any python code for the equiavalent of

python -m http.server port --bind addr --directory dir

So I need basicaly working server class that prcoess at least GET requests. Most of the things I found on google either http server with some special needs or something like that, where you need to code response behaviour be yourself:

from http.server import BaseHTTPRequestHandler, HTTPServer

def run(server_class=HTTPServer, handler_class=BaseHTTPRequestHandler):
    server_address = ('', 8000)
    httpd = server_class(server_address, handler_class)
    httpd.serve_forever()

run()

All that I need is default working skeleton of python http server, where you can provide address, port and directory, and it would normally process GET reqeuests.

CodePudding user response：

You need to subclass the BaseHTTPRequestHandler to, well, handle the requests:

class HTTPRequestHandler(BaseHTTPRequestHandler):
    """HTTP request handler with additional properties and functions."""

     def do_GET(self):
        """handle GET requests."""
        # Do stuff.

CodePudding user response：

Why not use the requests library ?

import requests

#the required first parameter of the 'get' method is the 'url'(instead of get you can use any other http type, as needed):

r = requests.get('https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73089846/python-3-simple-http-get-functional')

#you can print many other things as well such as content, text and so on
print(r.status_code)
