Very simple WSGI question

I want to write some middleware to notice when the inner app returns a
500 status code. I'm sure there are already sophisticated loggers that
do this sort of thing, but I'm using this as a learning exercise.

Right now, I wrapped the start_response callable. So when the WSGI
application calls the start response callable, I look at the first arg
passed in and do my test.

What's the right way to do this?

Will there be a WSGI-server like BaseHTTPServer etc in the standard distro? I think that would increase the adoptation of the WSGI-standard. A new web-framework for python pops up every other week and more and more support WSGI. Why not focus on getting an optimized, production-grade fully documented WSGI-server into the distro? Right now the BaseHTTPServer seems to be usable for development and testing, not production environment. Perhaps...

I love idea of WSGI and hope it succeeds. It seems to be helpful for person tempted to write his own framework.....they can now just mix and match existing components with WSGI //instead//. I not sure what WSGI offers the web beginner. Aren't they still better off learning an existing web framework first before attacking WSGI?

So I keep hearing more and more about this WSGI stuff, and honestly I still don't understand what it is exactly and how it differs from CGI in the fundamentals (Trying to research this on the web now) What I'm most confused about is how it affects me. I've been writing small CGI programs in Python for a while now whenever I have a need for a web program. Is CGI now considered "Bad"? I've just always found it easier to write something...

Howdy all, I'm working on a web application that is starting to gain a lot of back-end code written in Python. However, all the current interface code is written in legacy PHP. I'd like to slowly introduce new features as Python WSGI programs. Is it possible to write a Python WSGI program that talks to a PHP program as its "back end"? Where can I find out how to do this, preferably with examples?

I'm trying to figure out if there's any defined behaviour in PEP 333 for instances where an application returns an iterable as usual without error, but that iterable's next() method eventually raises an exception. Since any data theretofore returned by the iterable must be assumed to have already been written to the client, thus making it impossible to replace the response with a 500 error or somesuch, does the gateway just absorb the...

The wsgiref module in Python 2.5 seems to be empty: $ python Python 2.5 (r25:51908, Mar 1 2007, 10:09:05) on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. So... is wsgi considered ready for production use, or is it still on the bleeding edge? And if the former, which implementation should one use?

At work we are shopping for a Web framework, so I have been looking at the available options on the current market. In particular I have looked at Paste and Pylons and I have written my impressions here: http://www.phyast.pitt.edu/~micheles/python/yet-another-comparison-of-web-frameworks.html I do not speak too well of Pylons, so if you thing I am wrong feel free to correct me here ;)

Hi, Until now, I was running my own static site with Python, but I'm in need of dynamism. After reading some cgi tutorials, I saw Joe Gregorio's old article "Why so many Python web frameworks?" about wsgi apps and have a question about it. The code he gave works like a charm (I had to make a little change because SQLAlchemy has changed since), but how the hell can I serve static files (css, js, images, etc.) within an wsgi

I'm sorry if this is off-topic, i couldn't find a mailing list OR forum for WSGI (and #wsgi wasn't very helpful). i played around with StringIO, and apparently if you write to a stringio the position gets set to the end of the write, so if you read from it again, without using seek, you won't read what comes next, you'll skip to the end of the write. and if you write without seeking to the end first, you'll overwrite part of the string...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
