web.py - specify address and port


How to specify listening address and port in web.py? Something like:

web.application( urls, host="33.44.55.66", port=8080 )

Edit

I would like to avoid using the default web.py command line parsing


Solution

  • From API docmentation of web.py:

     module web.httpserver
        function runsimple(func,server_address=('0.0.0.0', 8080))  

    Runs CherryPy WSGI server hosting WSGI app func. The directory static/ is hosted statically.

    Example code

    import web
    
    class MyApplication(web.application):
        def run(self, port=8080, *middleware):
            func = self.wsgifunc(*middleware)
            return web.httpserver.runsimple(func, ('0.0.0.0', port))
    
    if __name__ == "__main__":
        app = MyApplication(urls, globals())
        app.run(port=8888)
