💢  About

This project follows the embedded MicroWebSrv, which is mainly used on microcontrollers such as Pycom, ESP32 and STM32 on Pyboards.

In a need for scalability and to meet the IoT universe, microWebSrv2 was developed as a new project and has been completely redesigned to be much more robust and efficient that its predecessor.

Internal mechanisms works directly at I/O level, are fully asynchronous from end to end, and manages the memory in a highly optimized way.
Also, architecture makes its integration very easy and the source code, MIT licensed, remains really small.

🚀  Features

  • Embed microWebSrv2 into your microcontrollers as a powerful web server.

  • Benefit from a fully asynchronous architecture that allows to process many concurrent requests very quickly.

  • Use multiple worker threads to parallelize simultaneous processes.

  • Adjust settings to fine-tune resources usage and sizing pre-allocated memory.

  • Load additional modules to extend the server's functionalities.

  • Customize the management of centralized logs.

  • Apply SSL/TLS security layer and certificate on web connections (https mode).

  • Define web routes with variable arguments in order to be able to process the targeted requests.

  • Receive any type of request such as GET, HEAD, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS, PATCH, ...

  • Use the route resolver (from the path) and the path builder (from the route) for convenience.

  • Increase loading speed by automatically allowing web clients to cache static files.

  • Receive name/value pairs from URL encoded forms.

  • Send and receive JSON objects and use them to create a RESTful API style.

  • Play with AjAX requests to interact quickly with a web application.

  • Define the origin of resources and allow all values of CORS pre-flight requests.

  • Verify that a request is successfully authenticated by the Basic or Bearer method.

  • Reduce the number of persistent connections per web client with keep-alive mode support.

  • Respond to a request by using a data stream as content, sent with known length or in chunked transfer-encoding.

  • Use a file to respond to a request that will be treated as on-the-fly content or as an attachment to download.

  • Take advantage of the WebSockets module to exchange messages in real time via WS or secured WSS connection.

  • Create .pyhtml pages for an HTML rendering with integrated Python using the PyhtmlTemplate module.

📚  Documentation

  • MicroWebSrv2 package

    The Python package comes with the following files:

    • 🔻 /MicroWebSrv2
      • 🔸 __init__.py
      • 🔸 microWebSrv2.py
      • 🔸 webRoute.py
      • 🔸 httpRequest.py
      • 🔸 httpResponse.py
      • 🔹 /libs
        • 🔸 XAsyncSockets.py
        • 🔸 urlUtils.py
      • 🔹 /mods
        • 🔸 WebSockets.py
        • 🔸 PyhtmlTemplate.py

  • Working with microWebSrv2

    To work with microWebSrv2, you must first import the package as follows:

    from MicroWebSrv2 import *

    There are 5 main elements with which you will work:

    Now, you have everything you need to continue 😎

    • Asynchronous logic

      microWebSrv2 is based on a fully asynchronous I/Os logic.

      This means that many requests and responses can be processed concurrently, allowing other necessary processing at any time within a single thread.

      In addition, it is possible to use several shared workers in order to be able to parallelize processes that could be blocking.

      Finally, memory buffers required for data processing are pre-allocated as best as possible to maximize performance and prevent excessive memory requirements.

      Thus, it is possible to maintain several thousand persistent connections but also, to benefit from a low consumption of resources on embedded platforms.

      microWebSrv2 leans on the XAsyncSockets layer.

    • Configuring web server

      Before starting microWebSrv2 to listen to web requests, it is important to configure it correctly.

      • If you want to change the default server port or bind IP address, you must set the BindAddress property.

        mws2.BindAddress = ('192.168.0.1', 12345)

      • If you want to define an another directory for web files, you must set the RootPath property.

        mws2.RootPath = 'webfiles/root'

      • If you want a secure https web server, you must call the EnableSSL method.

        mws2.EnableSSL(certFile='certificate.crt', keyFile='private-key.key')

      • If you want to redirect resources not found, you must set the NotFoundURL property.

        mws2.NotFoundURL = '/'   # relative or absolute URL

      • If you want to set a pre-configured setting, you can call one of the following methods:

      • If you want to set your custom settings, you can adjust the following properties:

      • If you want to change the default timeout to wait for requests data, you must set the RequestsTimeoutSec property.

        mws2.RequestsTimeoutSec = 10

      • If you want to intercept logs to process them, you must set the OnLogging callback.

        def OnMWS2Logging(microWebSrv2, msg, msgType) :
    print('Log from custom function: %s' % msg)

mws2.OnLogging = OnMWS2Logging

      • Default pages

        Default pages are used as resources when requested paths point to directories.

        Page filename
        index.html
        index.htm
        default.html
        default.htm

        It is possible to add new default pages globally by calling MicroWebSrv2.AddDefaultPage static method.

      • MIME types

        MIME types allow specific files as readable resources and that are transmitted with the corresponding content type.

        Filename extension MIME type
        .txt text/plain
        .htm text/html
        .html text/html
        .css text/css
        .csv text/csv
        .js application/javascript
        .xml application/xml
        .xhtml application/xhtml+xml
        .json application/json
        .zip application/zip
        .pdf application/pdf
        .ts application/typescript
        .woff font/woff
        .woff2 font/woff2
        .ttf font/ttf
        .otf font/otf
        .jpg image/jpeg
        .jpeg image/jpeg
        .png image/png
        .gif image/gif
        .svg image/svg+xml
        .ico image/x-icon

        It is possible to add new MIME types globally by calling MicroWebSrv2.AddMimeType static method.

    • Starting web server

      To start microWebSrv2 server, you must use one of the following methods:

      • Start in a pool:
        The web server uses an existing asynchronous pool.
        If you want to have more than one server, this is the right solution.

        For more documentation, see StartInPool(...) method.
        If you want details about pools, check the GitHub repository of XAsyncSockets library.

      • Start in a managed pool:
        The web server automatically creates a new managed asynchronous pool and uses it.
        If you only need one server without more specific code, this is the right solution.
        However, you will need to define some pool sizing parameters.
        In this mode, a call to mws2.Stop() will release the pool.

        For more documentation, see StartManaged(...) method.

      🌀 Example to start a dual http/https web server:

      from MicroWebSrv2 import *
from time         import sleep

xasPool  = XAsyncSocketsPool()
srvHttp  = MicroWebSrv2()
srvHttps = MicroWebSrv2()

srvHttps.EnableSSL( certFile = 'SSL-Cert/openhc2.crt',
                    keyFile  = 'SSL-Cert/openhc2.key' )

srvHttp .StartInPool(xasPool)
srvHttps.StartInPool(xasPool)

xasPool.AsyncWaitEvents(threadsCount=1)

try :
    while True :
        sleep(1)
except KeyboardInterrupt :
    srvHttp .Stop()
    srvHttps.Stop()
    xasPool .StopWaitEvents()

    • Handling web routes

      microWebSrv2 have an easy and efficient web route system.
      A simple handler function with a decorator allows you to process requests.

      🌀 Example of a processing handler:

      @WebRoute(GET, '/test')
def RequestTest(microWebSrv2, request) :
    request.Response.ReturnOkJSON({
        'ClientAddr' : request.UserAddress,
        'Accept'     : request.Accept,
        'UserAgent'  : request.UserAgent
    })

      For more documentation, see Web Routes section.

    • SSL/TLS security (HTTPS)

      microWebSrv2 allow web server to apply the SSL/TLS security layer.
      In this case, a certificate and its private key must be given (with an optional PEM file).

      If you want to test https mode, uncomment the mws2.EnableSSL(...) call in main.py file.
      After restarting the demo program, open your browser at the following address:
      https://localhost

      ⚠️ The ssl library must be implements SSLContext on Python version to support secured web server.

# <msgType> can take following values:
#    - MicroWebSrv2.DEBUG
#    - MicroWebSrv2.INFO
#    - MicroWebSrv2.WARNING
#    - MicroWebSrv2.ERROR

  • Web Routes

    Web routes allow you to define conditional access paths to specific resources and react to corresponding http requests.
    They also provide the possibility of using freer conditions that can be retrieved as input elements.

    In microWebSrv2, a web route is composed by a processing handler, a requested method, a requested path and an optional name.
    The requested path can also consist of variable parts that can be retrieved as arguments.

    Finally, during an http request, if the method and path match to a route, the processing handler is called with the expected arguments.

    • Route Processing

      A route processing is an handler function decorated by the setting of the route.
      This setting uses the @WebRoute decorator whose definition is as follows:

      @WebRoute(method, routePath, name=None)
# <method> is the http requested method and must be a not empty string.
# <routePath> is the http requested path and must be a not empty string.
# <name> is an optional route name and must be a string or None.

      The handler function definition is as follows:

      @WebRoute(...)
def RequestHandler(microWebSrv2, request)
# <microWebSrv2> is of type MicroWebSrv2
# <request> is of type HttpRequest

      The method argument can be a string but also one of the following constants:
      GET, HEAD, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS, PATCH

      The routePath argument must always starts by / and specifies the relative URL of the route.

      Note that a route processing handler is global and can be called by any instance of MicroWebSrv2 class.

      🌀 Example of processing handlers:

      @WebRoute(GET, '/my-resource')
def RequestHandler1(microWebSrv2, request) :
    pass
      @WebRoute(POST, '/test/virtual-page.html', 'myTestRoute')
def RequestHandler2(microWebSrv2, request) :
    pass
      @WebRoute(OPTIONS, '/')
def RequestHandler3(microWebSrv2, request) :
    pass

    • Route Arguments

      It is possible to include route arguments that can be retrieved as input elements.
      These arguments are directly defined in the requested path by naming and framing them with <and > as follows:

      @WebRoute(GET, '/users/<id>/profile/<property>')

      In this web route, two arguments are defined: id and property.
      Thus, the route is variable and corresponds to the requested path from which any argument can be used.

      '/users/123/profile/firstname'

      So, the handler function definition is extended as follows:

      @WebRoute(...)
def RequestHandler(microWebSrv2, request, args)
# <microWebSrv2> is of type MicroWebSrv2
# <request> is of type HttpRequest
# <args> is a dictionary of route arguments

      Now, args can be used like args['id'] or args['property'].
      Note that values can be strings but also integers directly.

    • Route Methods

      ▶️ RegisterRoute(...)

      def RegisterRoute(handler, method, routePath, name=None)
# Registers a global web route directly, without decorator usage.
#   - No return value.
#   - <handler> is the route processing handler and must be a function (see above).
#   - <method> is the http requested method and must be a not empty string.
#   - <routePath> is the http requested path and must be a not empty string.
#   - <name> is an optional route name and must be a string or None.
# An exception can be raised if arguments are not correct.

      ▶️ ResolveRoute(...)

      def ResolveRoute(method, path)
# Resolves a web route using a method and a path.
#   - Returns a RouteResult class if no error occurred and route was found, returns None otherwise.
#   - <method> is an http method and must be of string type.
#   - <path> is an http relative path and must be of string type.

      The RouteResult class exposes the following properties:

      Name Type
      Handler processing handler
      Method string
      RoutePath string
      Name string or None
      Args dictionary

      ▶️ PathFromRoute(...)

      def PathFromRoute(routeName, routeArgs={ })
# Constructs the relative path from the route name and route arguments.
#   - Returns a string that is the relative path.
#   - <routeName> is the name of the web route and must be a not empty string.
#   - <routeArgs> is a dictionary of needed argument names and values.
# An exception can be raised if arguments are not correct or route was not found.

# <response> is of type HttpResponse

  • Additional modules

    microWebSrv2 supports additional modules that can be called during the processing of a web request and can then decide whether or not to intercept it.
    Modules can simply analyze http requests or responding to them so that they cannot continue their normal pipe-line processing.

    A module file must be placed in the "/mods" directory of the package and must define a class of the same name.
    In addition, this class must implement the OnRequest(...) method that will be called at each http request.

    🌀 Example of a module named "TestMod.py":

    class TestMod :

    def OnRequest(self, microWebSrv2, request) :
        print('TestMod: Request received from %s:%s' % request.UserAddress)

    • WebSockets Module

      WebSockets module must be loaded first by microWebSrv2 to process WebSocket connections.
      These are fully managed asynchronous I/Os and really many connections can be processed.
      After module loaded, do not forget to assign the callback OnWebSocketAccepted.
      If you need to select and process a sub-protocol, you must assign the callback OnWebSocketProtocol.

      from MicroWebSrv2 import *

WS_CHAT_SUB_PROTOCOL = 'myGreatChat-v1'

def OnWebSocketProtocol(microWebSrv2, protocols) :
    if WS_CHAT_SUB_PROTOCOL in protocols :
        return WS_CHAT_SUB_PROTOCOL

def OnWebSocketAccepted(microWebSrv2, webSocket) :
    print('New WebSocket (myGreatChat proto) accepted from %s:%s.' % webSocket.Request.UserAddress)

wsMod = MicroWebSrv2.LoadModule('WebSockets')
wsMod.OnWebSocketProtocol = OnWebSocketProtocol
wsMod.OnWebSocketAccepted = OnWebSocketAccepted

      • WebSockets module properties

        Name Type Get Set Description
        OnWebSocketProtocol callback or None ☑️ ☑️ Callback function when a new WebSocket connection negociates a sub-protocol.
        OnWebSocketAccepted callback or None ☑️ ☑️ Callback function when a new WebSocket connection is accepted.

        Definition of the above callback functions:

        def OnWebSocketProtocol(microWebSrv2, protocols)
# <microWebSrv2> is of type MicroWebSrv2
# <protocols> is a string list of proposed protocols
# RETURN: If you select a protocol, you must return it (the same as in the list)

        def OnWebSocketAccepted(microWebSrv2, webSocket)
# <microWebSrv2> is of type MicroWebSrv2
# <webSocket> is of type WebSocket

      • WebSocket Class

        WebSocket class is automatically instantiated by WebSockets module.
        A WebSocket can be obtained when a new connection is accepted in the callback OnWebSocketAccepted.
        It is also important to assign WebSocket callbacks in order to receive the various events.

        • WebSocket instance methods

          ▶️ webSocket.SendTextMessage(...)

          def SendTextMessage(self, msg)
# Sends a text message through the WebSocket.
#   - Returns True or False.
#   - <msg> must be a not empty string.
# An exception can be raised if <msg> is not correct.

          ▶️ webSocket.SendBinaryMessage(...)

          def SendBinaryMessage(self, msg)
# Sends a binary message through the WebSocket.
#   - Returns True or False.
#   - <msg> must be in bytes or convertible into bytes and not empty.
# An exception can be raised if <msg> is not correct.

          ▶️ webSocket.Close(...)

          def Close(self)
# Closes the WebSocket.
#   - No return value.

          def OnBinaryMessage(webSocket, msg)
# <webSocket> is of type WebSocket
# <msg> is of type memoryview

          def OnClosed(webSocket)
# <webSocket> is of type WebSocket

    • PyhtmlTemplate Module

      PyhtmlTemplate module must be loaded first by microWebSrv2 to process .pyhtml pages.
      With it, you will be able to render HTML pages directly integrating Python/MicroPython language.

      from MicroWebSrv2 import *

pyhtmlTemplateMod = MicroWebSrv2.LoadModule('PyhtmlTemplate')
pyhtmlTemplateMod.ShowDebug = True

      In the pages .pyhtml, you must use the following instructions:

      Instruction Code schema
      PY {{ py }} Python code {{ end }}
      IF {{ if Python condition }} html bloc {{ end }}
      ELIF {{ elif Python condition }} html bloc {{ end }}
      ELSE {{ else }} html bloc {{ end }}
      FOR {{ for identifier in Python iterator }} html bloc {{ end }}
      Expression {{ Python expression }}

      🌀 See the test.pyhtml page for the example:

      Pyhtml Code
