Create a redirect loop with Tornado (for testing)

redirect_loop.py

import tornado.httpserver
import tornado.ioloop
import tornado.web

PORT = 10045


class Application(tornado.web.Application):
    def __init__(self):
        handlers = [
            (r'/redirect', RedirectHandler)
        ]

        tornado.web.Application.__init__(self, handlers, debug=True)


class RedirectHandler(tornado.web.RequestHandler):
    def get(self):
        self.redirect('http://localhost:{port}/redirect'.format(port=PORT))

if __name__ == '__main__':
    http_server = tornado.httpserver.HTTPServer(Application())
    http_server.listen(PORT)
    tornado.ioloop.IOLoop.instance().start()
