cherrypy

I have the following standard implementation of capturing Ctrl+C : def signal_handler(signal, frame): status = server.stop() print("[{source}] Server Status: {status}".format(source=__name__.upper(), status=status)) print("Exiting ...") sys.exit(0) signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, signal_handler) On server.start() I am starting a threaded instance of CherryPy. I created the thread thinking that maybe since CherryPy is running, the main thread is not seeing the Ctrl+C . This did not seem to have any affect but posting the code as I have it now: __main__ : server.start() server : def start(self): #

I'm building a web service for iterative batch processing of data using CherryPy. The ideal workflow is as follows: Users POST data to the service for processing When the processing job is free, it collects the queued data and starts another iteration While the job is processing, users are POSTing more data to the queue for the next iteration Once the current iteration is finished, the results are passed back so that users can GET them using the same API. The job starts again with the next batch of queued data. The key consideration here is that the processing should run as fast as possible

CherryPy keeps returning blank pages or with the values I return in the controllers. I rewrote a django and jinja2 version that did work, apparently this one doesn't which is almost identical to the previous mentioned. I did some pprint's in the tool bit which does fill the request.body with parsed html but doesn't output it when pass is set in the controller. If I return a {'user':True} in the controller that is shown in the form of a simple "User". with a few examples online and the code of SickBeard I came to the following: controller: class RootController(object): @cherrypy.expose

I have a cherrypy web server that needs to be able to receive large files over http post. I have something working at the moment, but it fails once the files being sent gets too big (around 200mb). I'm using curl to send test post requests, and when I try to send a file that's too big, curl spits out "The entity sent with the request exceeds the maximum allowed bytes." Searching around, this seems to be an error from cherrypy. So I'm guessing that the file being sent needs to be sent in chunks? I tried something with mmap, but I couldn't get it too work. Does the method that handles the file

I've followed the basic CherryPy tutorial ( http://www.cherrypy.org/wiki/CherryPyTutorial ). One thing not discussed is deployment. How can I launch a CherryPy app as a daemon and "forget about it"? What happens if the server reboots? Is there a standard recipe? Maybe something that will create a service script (/etc/init.d/cherrypy...) Thanks! Benno There is a Daemonizer plugin for CherryPy included by default which is useful for getting it to start but by far the easiest way for simple cases is to use the cherryd script: > cherryd -h Usage: cherryd [options] Options: -h, --help show this
