Python static fileserver

FileServer Description

FileServer is a simple static fileserver and directory index server in Python (WSGI app).Often for testing you will want a static fileserver and directory index as part of your WSGI stack. In addition, you may have requirements to run such as part of a production WSGI stack. FileServer fits these needs.MotivationI needed a directory index server a la Apache to test a PyPI clone I was using. After surveying what was out there, there didn't seem anything out there that was easily consumable for my purposes. So I wrote one only depending on webob.Contentsfrom fileserver import * should give you access to all of the usable components of fileserver: file_response: return a webob response object appropriate to a file name FileApp: WSGI app that wraps file_response Directory Server: serves a directory tree and generated indices main: command line entry pointFileApp and file_response are heavily borrowed from http://docs.webob.org/en/latest/file-example.html though the example there is more complete. I will work on making this more thorough going forward. I also borrowed from Paste's StaticURLParser and static.Cling.In addition there is a command line script, serve, which may be used to serve a directory with the wsgiref server.Product's homepage
