slimHTTP 1.0.1rc3

A minimalistic non-threaded HTTP server written in Python. Supports REST & WebSockets¹.

A simple, minimal and flexible HTTP server.
Supports modules for parsing WebSocket¹ traffic as well as REST api routes.

• slimHTTP documentation
• slimHTTP discord server

Supports

• REST routes (@http.route('/some/endpoint'))
• websockets if @http.on_upgrade is defined using spiderWeb ¹
• Static file emulation with @http.route('/example.html')
• vhosts
• ssl/tls
• No threading or threads used (fully relies on epoll() (select() on Windows))
• flexible configuration for webroots etc via @http.configuration

Minimal example

import slimhttpd

http = slimhttpd.host(slimhttpd.HTTP)

while 1:
	for event, *event_data in http.poll():
		pass

The only important thing is that .poll() has to be called in order to process the events.

Footnote

It's not pretty down here. But it'll do in a pinch.
