    # The order here is not important, we consider the first `int` value as status code,
    # All `Headers` object will be sent to the response
    # And the first valid object whose type in (str, unicode, dict, StaticFile, bytes) will
    # be considered as the body
    return 200, Headers({"my-header": "headers"}), {"success": True}

@request_map("session")
def test_session(session=Session(), invalid=False):
    ins = session.get_attribute("in-session")
    if not ins:
        session.set_attribute("in-session", "Hello, Session!")

    __logger.info("session id: %s" % session.id)

        session.invalidate()
    return "<!DOCTYPE html><html><body>%s</body></html>" % str(ins)

Beside using the default values, you can also use variable annotations to specify your controller function's variables.

@request_map("/say_hello/to/{name}", method=["GET", "POST", "PUT"])
def your_ctroller_function(
        user_name: str, # req.parameter["user_name"],400 error will raise when there's no such parameter in the query string.
        password: str, # req.parameter["password"],400 error will raise when there's no such parameter in the query string.
        skills: list, # req.parameters["skills"],400 error will raise when there's no such parameter in the query string.
        all_headers: Headers, # req.headers
        user_token: Header, # req.headers["user_token"],400 error will raise when there's no such parameter in the quest headers.
        all_cookies: Cookies, # req.cookies, return all cookies
        user_info: Cookie, # req.cookies["user_info"],400 error will raise when there's no such parameter in the cookies.
        name: PathValue, # req.path_values["name"],get the {name} value from your path.
        session: Session # req.getSession(True),get the session, if there is no sessions, create one.
    ):
    return "<html><body>Hello, World!</body></html>"

We recommend using functional programing to write controller functions. but if you realy want to use Object, you can use @request_map in a class method. For doing this, every time a new request comes, a new MyController object will be created.

class MyController:

    def __init__(self) -> None:
        self._name = "ctr object"

    @request_map("/obj/say_hello", method="GET")
    def my_ctrl_mth(self, name: str):
        return {"message": f"hello, {name}, {self._name} says. "}

If you want a singleton, you can add a @controller decorator to the class.

@controller
class MyController:

    def __init__(self) -> None:
        self._name = "ctr object"

    @request_map("/obj/say_hello", method="GET")
    def my_ctrl_mth(self, name: str):
        return {"message": f"hello, {name}, {self._name} says. "}

You can also add the @request_map to your class, this will be as the part of the url.

@controller
@request_map("/obj", method="GET")
class MyController:

    def __init__(self) -> None:
        self._name = "ctr object"

    @request_map
    def my_ctrl_default_mth(self, name: str):
        return {"message": f"hello, {name}, {self._name} says. "}

    @request_map("/say_hello", method=("GET", "POST"))
    def my_ctrl_mth(self, name: str):
        return {"message": f"hello, {name}, {self._name} says. "}

You can specify the init variables in @controller decorator.

@controller(args=["ctr_name"], kwargs={"desc": "this is a key word argument"})
@request_map("/obj", method="GET")
class MyController:

    def __init__(self, name, desc="") -> None:
        self._name = f"ctr[{name}] - {desc}"

    @request_map
    def my_ctrl_default_mth(self, name: str):
        return {"message": f"hello, {name}, {self._name} says. "}

    @request_map("/say_hello", method=("GET", "POST"))
    def my_ctrl_mth(self, name: str):
        return {"message": f"hello, {name}, {self._name} says. "}

From 0.7.0, @request_map support regular expression mapping.

# url `/reg/abcef/aref/xxx` can map the flowing controller:
@route(regexp="^(reg/(.+))$", method="GET")
def my_reg_ctr(reg_groups: RegGroups, reg_group: RegGroup = RegGroup(1)):
    print(reg_groups) # will output ("reg/abcef/aref/xxx", "abcef/aref/xxx")
    print(reg_group) # will output "abcef/aref/xxx"
    return f"{self._name}, {reg_group.group},{reg_group}"

Regular expression mapping a class:

@controller(args=["ctr_name"], kwargs={"desc": "this is a key word argument"})
@request_map("/obj", method="GET") # regexp do not work here, method will still available
class MyController:

    def __init__(self, name, desc="") -> None:
        self._name = f"ctr[{name}] - {desc}"

    @request_map
    def my_ctrl_default_mth(self, name: str):
        return {"message": f"hello, {name}, {self._name} says. "}

    @route(regexp="^(reg/(.+))$") # prefix `/obj`  from class decorator will be ignored, but `method`(GET in this example) from class decorator will still work.
    def my_ctrl_mth(self, name: str):
        return {"message": f"hello, {name}, {self._name} says. "}

Session

Defaultly, the session is stored in local, you can extend SessionFactory and Session classes to implement your own session storage requirement (like store all data in redis or memcache)

from simple_http_server import Session, SessionFactory, set_session_factory

class MySessionImpl(Session):

    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        # your own implementation

    @property
    def id(self) -> str:
        # your own implementation

    @property
    def creation_time(self) -> float:
        # your own implementation

    @property
    def last_acessed_time(self) -> float:
        # your own implementation

    @property
    def is_new(self) -> bool:
        # your own implementation

    @property
    def attribute_names(self) -> Tuple:
        # your own implementation

    def get_attribute(self, name: str) -> Any:
        # your own implementation

    def set_attribute(self, name: str, value: Any) -> None:
        # your own implementation

    def invalidate(self) -> None:
        # your own implementation

class MySessionFacImpl(SessionFactory):

    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        # your own implementation

    def clean_session(self, session_id: str):
        # your own implementation

    def get_session(self, session_id: str, create: bool = False) -> Session:
        # your own implementation
        return MySessionImpl()

set_session_factory(MySessionFacImpl())

Write filters

from simple_http_server import filter_map

# Please note filter will map a regular expression, not a concrect url.
@filter_map("^/tuple")
def filter_tuple(ctx):
    print("---------- through filter ---------------")
    # add a header to request header
    ctx.request.headers["filter-set"] = "through filter"
    if "user_name" not in ctx.request.parameter:
        ctx.response.send_redirect("/index")
    elif "pass" not in ctx.request.parameter:
        ctx.response.send_error(400, "pass should be passed")
        # you can also raise a HttpError
        # raise HttpError(400, "pass should be passed")
    else:
        # you should always use do_chain method to go to the next
        ctx.do_chain()

Start your server

# If you place the controllers method in the other files, you should import them here.

import simple_http_server.server as server
import my_test_ctrl


def main(*args):
    # The following method can import several controller files once.
    server.scan("my_ctr_pkg", r".*controller.*")
    server.start()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

If you want to specify the host and port:

    server.start(host="", port=8080)

If you want to specify the resources path:

Notice: /path_prefix///path_prefix/*//path_prefix/** is the same effect.

    server.start(resources={"/path_prefix/*", "/absolute/dir/root/path",
                            "/path_prefix/*", "/absolute/dir/root/path"})

If you want to use ssl:

    server.start(host="", 
                 port=8443,
                 ssl=True,
                 ssl_protocol=ssl.PROTOCOL_TLS_SERVER, # Optional, default is ssl.PROTOCOL_TLS_SERVER, which will auto detect the highted protocol version that both server and client support. 
                 ssl_check_hostname=False, #Optional, if set to True, if the hostname is not match the certificat, it cannot establish the connection, default is False.
                 keyfile="/path/to/your/keyfile.key",
                 certfile="/path/to/your/certfile.cert",
                 keypass="", # Optional, your private key's password
                 )

Logger

The default logger is try to write logs to the screen, you can specify the logger handler to write it to a file.

import simple_http_server.logger as logger
import logging

_formatter = logging.Formatter(fmt='[%(asctime)s]-[%(name)s]-%(levelname)-4s: %(message)s')
_handler = logging.TimedRotatingFileHandler("/var/log/simple_http_server.log", when="midnight", backupCount=7)
_handler.setFormatter(_formatter)
_handler.setLevel("INFO")

logger.set_handler(_handler)

If you want to add a handler rather than replace the inner one, you can use:

logger.add_handler(_handler)

If you want to change the logger level:

logger.set_level("DEBUG")

This logger will first save all the log record to a global queue, and then output them in a background thread, so it is very suitable for getting several logger with a same handler, especialy the TimedRotatingFileHandler which may slice the log files not quite well in a mutiple thread environment.
