6 scgi-wsgi - WSGI adapter for SCGI

15 The *scgi-wsgi* program translates SCGI requests to WSGI requests, and
16 passes them to a specified Python module. It is mainly written to
17 emulate the behavior of *ashd-wsgi*(1), but over SCGI instead of the
18 native *ashd*(7) protocol, so please see its documentation for details
19 of Python interoperation. Unlike *ashd-wsgi* which requires CPython,
20 however, *scgi-wsgi* is written in pure Python using only the standard
21 library, and so should be usable by any Python implementation. If
22 using it under *ashd*(7), please see the documentation for
23 *callscgi*(1) as well.
25 Following *callscgi*(1) conventions, *scgi-wsgi* will, by default,
26 accept connections on a socket passed on its standard input (a
27 behavior which is, obviously, not available on all Python
28 implementations). Use the *-T* option to listen to a TCP address
36 Print a brief help message to standard output and exit.
40 Use the convention used by Apache's mod_wsgi module to find
41 the WSGI application object. See the PROTOCOL section of
42 *ashd-wsgi*(1) for details.
45 By default, *scgi-wsgi* sets up the Python logging with a
46 logging format and for logging to standard error. The *-L*
47 option suppresses that behavior, so that any handler module
48 may set up logging itself.
52 Prepend 'MODPATH' to Python's `sys.path`; can be given multiple
55 *-t* 'HANDLING-MODEL'::
57 Specify the way *scgi-wsgi* handles requests. See the REQUEST
58 HANDLING section of *ashd-wsgi*(1) for details.
62 Instead of using a listening socket passed on standard input
63 to accept SCGI connections, bind a TCP socket to the 'HOST'
64 address listening for connections on 'PORT' instead. If 'HOST'
65 is not given, `localhost` is used by default.
69 If the PDM library is installed on the system, create a
70 listening socket for connecting PDM clients according to
