Python SimpleHTTPServer

问题

Is there a way to make Python SimpleHTTPServer supports mod_rewrite?

I'm trying things with Ember.js with leveraging History API as the location API, and to make it work, I have to :

1) add some vhosts config in WAMP (not simple), or
2) run python -m simpleHTTPServer (very simple)

So when I opened it in the browser, localhost:3000 and clicked around the navigation (about and users for example), it worked well. The URLs are changed by Ember.js to localhost:3000/about and localhost:3000/users respectively.

But when I tried to open localhost:3000/about directly in new tab, the python web server simply returns 404.

I had my .htaccess redirecting everything to index.html, but I suspect python simple web server doesn't really read the htaccess file (am I right on this?)

I've tried downloading PHP 5.4.12 and run the built in web server, the url and htaccess mod_rewrite works well. But I'm still reluctant to upgrade from stable 5.3 to (probably still unstable enough) 5.4.12, so if there's a way to support mod_rewrite in python simple web server, that would be preferrable.

Thanks for the answer.

SimpleHTTPServer does not support apache modules and does not respect .htaccess, because it isn't apache. it won't work with php either.

By modifying pd40's answer, I came up with this which doesn't redirect, it does your traditional "send index.html instead of 404". Not at all optimized, but it works for testing and development which is all I needed.

import SimpleHTTPServer, SocketServer
import urlparse, os

PORT = 3456

class MyHandler(SimpleHTTPServer.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler):
   def do_GET(self):

       # Parse query data to find out what was requested
       parsedParams = urlparse.urlparse(self.path)

       # See if the file requested exists
       if os.access('.' + os.sep + parsedParams.path, os.R_OK):
          # File exists, serve it up
          SimpleHTTPServer.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler.do_GET(self);
       else:
          # send index.hmtl
          self.send_response(200)
          self.send_header('Content-Type', 'text/html')
          self.end_headers()
          with open('index.html', 'r') as fin:
            self.copyfile(fin, self.wfile)

Handler = MyHandler

httpd = SocketServer.TCPServer(("", PORT), Handler)

print "serving at port", PORT
httpd.serve_forever()

If you know the cases you need to redirect you can subclass SimpleHTTPRequestHandler and do a redirect. This redirects any missing file requests to /index.html

import SimpleHTTPServer, SocketServer
import urlparse, os

PORT = 3000

class MyHandler(SimpleHTTPServer.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler):
   def do_GET(self):

       # Parse query data to find out what was requested
       parsedParams = urlparse.urlparse(self.path)

       # See if the file requested exists
       if os.access('.' + os.sep + parsedParams.path, os.R_OK):
          # File exists, serve it up
          SimpleHTTPServer.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler.do_GET(self);
       else:
          # redirect to index.html
          self.send_response(302)
          self.send_header('Content-Type', 'text/html')  
          self.send_header('location', '/index.html')  
          self.end_headers()

Handler = MyHandler

httpd = SocketServer.TCPServer(("", PORT), Handler)

print "serving at port", PORT
httpd.serve_forever()

No mod_rewrite in Python servers I am afraid, unless you run python scripts behind an Apache server, a resource-costly solution.

Try Cherrypy (http://www.cherrypy.org/), which allows you to manage your page handlers, and very simply makes clean URLs.
