Hello World in Django involves 4 Python files, whose relationships I'm not
100% clear on, so I haven't written an example for it. But this
framework-less web server works, so I don't see why Django wouldn't
using PyCall
@pyimport textwrap
@pyimport BaseHTTPServer as HS
@pydef type HelloRequestHandler <: HS.BaseHTTPRequestHandler
do_GET(self) = begin
if self[:path] != "/"
self[:send_error](404, "Object is not found")
return
end
self[:send_response](200)
self[:send_header]("Content-type", "text/html; charset=utf-8")
self[:end_headers]()
response_text = """
<html>
<head>
<title>Greetings to the world</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Greetings to the world</h1>
<p>Hello, world!</p>
</body>
</html>
"""
self[:wfile][:write](response_text)
end
end
server_address = ("", 8000)
httpd = HS.HTTPServer(server_address, HelloRequestHandler)
httpd[:serve_forever]()
# go to localhost:8000
