1 """WSGI handler for serving chained WSGI modules from physical files
3 The WSGI handler in this module ensures that the SCRIPT_FILENAME
4 variable is properly set in every request and points out a file that
5 exists and is readable. It then dispatches the request in one of two
6 ways: If the header X-Ash-Python-Handler is set in the request, its
7 value is used as the name of a handler object to dispatch the request
8 to; otherwise, the file extension of the SCRIPT_FILENAME is used to
9 determine the handler object.
11 The name of a handler object is specified as a string, which is split
12 along its last constituent dot. The part left of the dot is the name
13 of a module, which is imported; and the part right of the dot is the
14 name of an object in that module, which should be a callable adhering
15 to the WSGI specification. Alternatively, the module part may be
16 omitted (such that the name is a string with no dots), in which case
17 the handler object is looked up from this module.
19 By default, this module will handle files with the extensions `.wsgi'
20 or `.wsgi2' using the `chain' handler, which chainloads such files and
21 runs them as independent WSGI applications. See its documentation for
24 This module itself contains both an `application' and a `wmain'
25 object. If this module is used by ashd-wsgi(1) or scgi-wsgi(1) so that
26 its wmain function is called, arguments can be specified to it to
27 install handlers for other file extensions. Such arguments take the
28 form `.EXT=HANDLER', where EXT is the file extension to be handled,
29 and HANDLER is a handler name, as described above. For example, the
30 argument `.fpy=my.module.foohandler' can be given to pass requests for
31 `.fpy' files to the function `foohandler' in the module `my.module'
32 (which must, of course, be importable). When writing such handler
33 functions, you may want to use the getmod() function in this module.
