A Python version for the kids at home: https://gist.github.com/702001

View on HN

And a node.js version too: https://gist.github.com/700995

If you want to do this in node you should use something like http://github.com/marak/webservice.js instead.

It's the same principle but with more features, more development, and test coverage.

I don't know much about python and webapps but what would you serve this with? I'm just curious as I don't see the equivalent serving in this as the node.js and ruby snippets.

A WSGI server (like paste, tornado, etc...) - you just wrap it in an app() function or object. It's very similar to Ruby's rack...

This can be run from the commandline with:

    gunicorn webapp

For example (if you have gunicorn installed).

And here are Perl (twice!) and Io versions for their dads :)

* https://gist.github.com/703620 - Perl using Plack

* https://gist.github.com/703651 - Perl using Continuity

* https://gist.github.com/703431 - Io using no external modules!

The Perl/Continuity is multiuser out of the box.

Here's a groovy version: https://gist.github.com/702337
