How to use SocketServer with IPv6

[Tomi Hautakoski]

Hello,

I'm a Python newbie trying to figure out how to use SocketServer with
IPv6. I would like to set up a TCPServer working like below but how to
tell SocketServer I need to use AF_INET6?

import SocketServer
import logging as l

l.basicConfig(l evel=l.DEBUG,
format='%(ascti me)s %(levelname)-8s %(message)s',
datefmt='%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S')
PORT = 5001

class CollectorHandle r(SocketServer. BaseRequestHand ler):

def setup(self):
l.info('%s connected!', self.client_add ress)
#self.request.s end('hi ' + str(self.client _address) + '\n')

def handle(self):
data = self.request.re cv(1024)
l.debug('Client sent this: %s\n', data)
def finish(self):
l.info('%s disconnected!', self.client_add ress)
#self.request.s end('bye ' + str(self.client _address) + '\n')

if __name__=='__ma in__':
#server host is a tuple ('host', port)
#myserver = SocketServer.Th readingTCPServe r(('', 5001), CollectorHandle r)
l.info('Collect or software starting up, creating TCPServer.')
try:
myserver = SocketServer.TC PServer(('', PORT), CollectorHandle r)
l.info('Listeni ng to connections in port %d.', PORT)
myserver.serve_ forever()
except KeyboardInterru pt:
pass

Thanks for any advice!
