Pre-release

This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.

srcviewserver

A simple HTTP server that serves source files with syntax highlighting.

Source files with a recognized language extension are highlighted and wrapped in an HTML page.
All other files are served as-is (binary streaming). Directories get an HTML listing.

Installation

pip install srcviewserver

Usage

srcviewserver [--port PORT] [--host HOST]
Option Default Description
--host 127.0.0.1 Host/IP address to bind to.
--port -p 8000 Port to listen on.

Navigate to http://127.0.0.1:8000/ and browse the directory tree.

Testing

A self-contained smoke test exercises the response-building functions (directory listing, syntax highlighting, binary streaming, HEAD, and error responses):

python -m test.smoke_test

Run it with either Python 2 or Python 3 from the repository root.
