When starting a bottle webserver without a thread or a subprocess, there's no problem. To exit the bottle app -> CTRL + c.
In a thread, how can I programmatically stop the bottle web server ?
I didn't find a stop() method or something like that in the documentation. Is there a reason ?
For the default (WSGIRef) server, this is what I do (actually it is a cleaner approach of Vikram Pudi's suggestion):
from bottle import Bottle, ServerAdapter
class MyWSGIRefServer(ServerAdapter):
server = None
def run(self, handler):
from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server, WSGIRequestHandler
if self.quiet:
class QuietHandler(WSGIRequestHandler):
def log_request(*args, **kw): pass
self.options['handler_class'] = QuietHandler
self.server = make_server(self.host, self.port, handler, **self.options)
self.server.serve_forever()
def stop(self):
# self.server.server_close() <--- alternative but causes bad fd exception
self.server.shutdown()
app = Bottle()
server = MyWSGIRefServer(host=listen_addr, port=listen_port)
try:
app.run(server=server)
except Exception,ex:
print ex
When I want to stop the bottle application, from another thread, I do the following:
server.stop()
I had trouble closing a bottle server from within a request as bottle seems to run requests in subprocesses.
I eventually found the solution was to do:
sys.stderr.close()
inside the request (that got passed up to the bottle server and axed it).
An updated version of mike's answer.
from bottlepy.bottle import WSGIRefServer, run
from threading import Thread
import time
class MyServer(WSGIRefServer):
def run(self, app): # pragma: no cover
from wsgiref.simple_server import WSGIRequestHandler, WSGIServer
from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server
import socket
class FixedHandler(WSGIRequestHandler):
def address_string(self): # Prevent reverse DNS lookups please.
return self.client_address[0]
def log_request(*args, **kw):
if not self.quiet:
return WSGIRequestHandler.log_request(*args, **kw)
handler_cls = self.options.get('handler_class', FixedHandler)
server_cls = self.options.get('server_class', WSGIServer)
if ':' in self.host: # Fix wsgiref for IPv6 addresses.
if getattr(server_cls, 'address_family') == socket.AF_INET:
class server_cls(server_cls):
address_family = socket.AF_INET6
srv = make_server(self.host, self.port, app, server_cls, handler_cls)
self.srv = srv ### THIS IS THE ONLY CHANGE TO THE ORIGINAL CLASS METHOD!
srv.serve_forever()
def shutdown(self): ### ADD SHUTDOWN METHOD.
self.srv.shutdown()
# self.server.server_close()
def begin():
run(server=server)
server = MyServer(host="localhost", port=8088)
Thread(target=begin).start()
time.sleep(2) # Shut down server after 2 seconds
server.shutdown()
The class WSGIRefServer is entirely copied with only 1 line added to the run() method is added. Also add a simple shutdown() method. Unfortunately, this is necessary because of the way bottle creates the run() method.
Here's one option: provide custom server (same as default), that records itself:
import bottle
class WSGI(bottle.WSGIRefServer):
instances = []
def run(self, *args, **kw):
self.instances.append(self)
super(WSGI, self).run(*args, **kw)
# some other thread:
bottle.run(host=ip_address, port=12345, server=WSGI)
# control thread:
logging.warn("servers are %s", WSGI.instances)
I suppose that the bottle webserver runs forever until it terminates. There are no methonds like stop().
But you can make something like this:
from bottle import route, run
import threading, time, os, signal, sys, operator
class MyThread(threading.Thread):
def __init__(self, target, *args):
threading.Thread.__init__(self, target=target, args=args)
self.start()
class Watcher:
def __init__(self):
self.child = os.fork()
if self.child == 0:
return
else:
self.watch()
def watch(self):
try:
os.wait()
except KeyboardInterrupt:
print 'KeyBoardInterrupt'
self.kill()
sys.exit()
def kill(self):
try:
os.kill(self.child, signal.SIGKILL)
except OSError: pass
def background_process():
while 1:
print('background thread running')
time.sleep(1)
@route('/hello/:name')
def index(name='World'):
return '<b>Hello %s!</b>' % name
def main():
Watcher()
MyThread(background_process)
run(host='localhost', port=8080)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
Then you can use Watcher.kill() when you need to kill your server.
Here is the code of run() function of the bottle:
try: app = app or default_app() if isinstance(app, basestring): app = load_app(app) if not callable(app): raise ValueError("Application is not callable: %r" % app)
for plugin in plugins or []:
app.install(plugin)
if server in server_names:
server = server_names.get(server)
if isinstance(server, basestring):
server = load(server)
if isinstance(server, type):
server = server(host=host, port=port, **kargs)
if not isinstance(server, ServerAdapter):
raise ValueError("Unknown or unsupported server: %r" % server)
server.quiet = server.quiet or quiet
if not server.quiet:
stderr("Bottle server starting up (using %s)...\n" % repr(server))
stderr("Listening on http://%s:%d/\n" % (server.host, server.port))
stderr("Hit Ctrl-C to quit.\n\n")
if reloader:
lockfile = os.environ.get('BOTTLE_LOCKFILE')
bgcheck = FileCheckerThread(lockfile, interval)
with bgcheck:
server.run(app)
if bgcheck.status == 'reload':
sys.exit(3)
else:
server.run(app)
except KeyboardInterrupt:
pass
except (SyntaxError, ImportError):
if not reloader: raise
if not getattr(server, 'quiet', False): print_exc()
sys.exit(3)
finally:
if not getattr(server, 'quiet', False): stderr('Shutdown...\n')
As you can see there are no other way to get off the run loop, except some exceptions.
The server.run function depends on the server you use, but there are no universal quit-method anyway.
You can make your thread a daemon by setting the daemon property to True before calling start.
mythread = threading.Thread()
mythread.daemon = True
mythread.start()
A deamon thread will stop whenever the main thread that it is running in is killed or dies. The only problem is that you won't be able to make the thread run any code on exit and if the thread is in the process of doing something, it will be stopped immediately without being able to finish the method it is running.
There's no way in Python to actually explicitly stop a thread. If you want to have more control over being able to stop your server you should look into Python Processes from the multiprocesses module.
Since bottle doesn't provide a mechanism, it requires a hack. This is perhaps the cleanest one if you are using the default WSGI server:
In bottle's code the WSGI server is started with:
srv.serve_forever()
If you have started bottle in its own thread, you can stop it using:
srv.shutdown()
To access the srv variable in your code, you need to edit the bottle source code and make it global. After changing the bottle code, it would look like:
srv = None #make srv global
class WSGIRefServer(ServerAdapter):
def run(self, handler): # pragma: no cover
global srv #make srv global
...
This equally kludgy hack has the advantage that is doesn't have you copy-paste any code from bottle.py:
# The global server instance.
server = None
def setup_monkey_patch_for_server_shutdown():
"""Setup globals to steal access to the server reference.
This is required to initiate shutdown, unfortunately.
(Bottle could easily remedy that.)"""
# Save the original function.
from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server
# Create a decorator that will save the server upon start.
def stealing_make_server(*args, **kw):
global server
server = make_server(*args, **kw)
return server
# Patch up wsgiref itself with the decorated function.
import wsgiref.simple_server
wsgiref.simple_server.make_server = stealing_make_server
setup_monkey_patch_for_server_shutdown()
def shutdown():
"""Request for the server to shutdown."""
server.shutdown()
This question was top in my google search, so i will post my answer:
When the server is started with the Bottle() class, it has a method close() to stop the server. From the source code:
""" Close the application and all installed plugins. """
For example:
class Server:
def __init__(self, host, port):
self._host = host
self._port = port
self._app = Bottle()
def stop(self):
# close ws server
self._app.close()
def foo(self):
# More methods, routes...
Calling stop method will stop de server.
