flipflop

FastCGI/WSGI gateway with Microsoft Windows support.

The original flipflop only supports Linux. I've added Windows support to it.

This module is a simplified fork of flup, written by Allan Saddi. It only has the FastCGI part of the original module.

#!/usr/bin/env python
from myapplication import app
from flipflop import WSGIServer


WSGIServer(app).run()

You can specify the max_connections and build your own listen socket and do not set close-on-exec if using under Windows.

import socket
from myapplication import app
from flipflop import WSGIServer

max_connections = 150  # Increase this number to serve more connections simultaneously.

sock = socket.socket()
sock.bind(('127.0.0.1', 9000))
sock.listen(5)

close_on_exec = False

WSGIServer(app, max_connections).run(sock, close_on_exec)

Now you've got a FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000. You can also build your own listen socket in Linux in order to setup distributed FastCGI servers. Remember to set close_on_exec = True if FastCGI process is forked from the web server.
