wille.server

Wille Server Module

Using Wille Server.

Let’s start by importing Wille server:

>>> import server

Instantiate a server with some customisations:

>>> server = server.Server(services_dir='examples/services', apps_dir=None, server_port=80, quiet=True)

Once services are loaded and everything is otherwise ok, let’s run the server

>>> server.run(background=True)

Now, take a look at your HTTP server, at http://localhost:port/

When finished, press Ctrl+C to kill the server
