[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-74?page=comments#action_12415819 ]
Damjan Georgievski commented on MODPYTHON-74: --------------------------------------------- I vote for this feature to be added in mod_python. I know some of the mod_python developers don't quite like WSGI but consider that today there are not much exlusively mod_python applications (and some people need/want to use web servers other than Apache). This means that, current applications can't depend on mod_python features, but most often they don't even need the special mod_python features. Current applications also implement special glue code to use the app with mod_python, scgi, cgi etc.. In the future, applications developers would want to avoid that, and you can see that almost all of the new web-app development is based on WSGI. You can even run Zope in a WSGI server (I wonder if anyone tried to do it in mod_python/WSGI). Including modpython_gateway (possibly as mod_python.wsgi) in the mod_python distribution will make mod_python an easy choice for serving WSGI applications without the need to hunt down mod_python WSGI implementations. Also I'd suggest that some features are implemented in modpython_gateway: - sendfile support (http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0333/#optional-platform-specific-file-handling) - more robust PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME detection, possibly without the "PythonOption SCRIPT_NAME" hack.... well, I think this might not be possible but it would be great if is. > Add a WSGI handler to support WSGI-based frameworks > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MODPYTHON-74 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-74 > Project: mod_python > Type: New Feature > Components: core > Reporter: Nicolas Lehuen > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 3.3 > > There is a complete implementation here : > http://www.amorhq.net/blogs/index.php/fumanchu/2005/08/11/wsgi_wrapper_for_mod_python -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
