Works great, thanks for porting to Python3.

It wasn't obvious to me so perhaps this will be helpful to others: it listens on TCP port 8000 (on my Windows system at least).

levinxo commented May 22, 2020

if want to use it with custom port or ip, just modify the test function to pass port/ip param to http.server.test

http.server.test Signature:

http.server.test(
    HandlerClass=<class 'http.server.BaseHTTPRequestHandler'>,
    ServerClass=<class 'http.server.ThreadingHTTPServer'>,
    protocol='HTTP/1.0',
    port=8000,
    bind='',

No longer works with Python 3.8.3, as cgi.escape was removed. html.escape should be used instead.

Patchfile:

21c21
< import cgi
---
> import html
187c187
<         displaypath = cgi.escape(urllib.parse.unquote(self.path))
---
>         displaypath = html.escape(urllib.parse.unquote(self.path))
207c207
<                     % (urllib.parse.quote(linkname), cgi.escape(displayname))).encode())
---
>                     % (urllib.parse.quote(linkname), html.escape(displayname))).encode())

how do I implement this ssl wrap code into this class?

httpd = HTTPServer((HOST,PORT), SimpleHTTPRequestHandler)
httpd.socket = ssl.wrap_socket(httpd.socket, certfile='mycert.pem', server_side=True)

Hello there,
Anyone know how to give the directory path ? i found "directory=/your/path/" for the BaseHTTPRequest but not working..
Thx

I had some trouble on Windows 10/AMD64 after upgrading to Python3 version 3.9.1. The bind appeared to be misbehaving. It worked again when I changed line 292 to:

http.server.test(HandlerClass, ServerClass, port=8000, bind='0.0.0.0')

To upload a file from the command line with this server, you can use the command:

curl -v -F file=@filename.txt http://server:8000

great!
I put it in Python/Lib,and use the script in terminal like python -m SimpleHTTPServerWithUpload 8030

if __name__ == '__main__':
    import argparse
    parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
    parser.add_argument('--bind', '-b', default='0.0.0.0', metavar='ADDRESS',
                        help='Specify alternate bind address '
                             '[default: all interfaces]')
    parser.add_argument('port', default=8000, type=int,
                        help='Specify alternate port [default: 8000]')
    args = parser.parse_args()
    http.server.test(HandlerClass=SimpleHTTPRequestHandler, port=args.port, bind=args.bind)
