test_https_server.py

from http.server import HTTPServer,SimpleHTTPRequestHandler
from socketserver import BaseServer
import ssl

HOSTNAME = 'localhost'
HTTPS_PORT = 8443
httpd = HTTPServer((HOSTNAME, HTTPS_PORT), SimpleHTTPRequestHandler)
httpd.socket = ssl.wrap_socket(httpd.socket, keyfile='server.key', certfile='server.crt', server_side=True)
print('Running https server on port {0}. Check it out with open https://{1}:{0}'.format(HTTPS_PORT, HOSTNAME))
httpd.serve_forever()

Create the keyfile and certfile by running this command:

openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout server.key -out server.crt
