Example of Simple Website Using Python

I pop my ubuntu terminal and type this code:











## =========================================================
# Sample python site by dakc
# ----------------------------
# 1) Make sure you have apache and enable mod-python on your apache. For example on ubuntu:
#               $ sudo apt-get install apache2
#              $ sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-python
#              $ sudo a2enmod python
#
# 2) Make sure you have proper PythonHandler. For example
:#           AddHandler mod_python .py
#            PythonHandler mod_python.publisher
#            PythonDebug On
#
# 3) Enter this codes and name it as 'pythonmysample.py' on your web directory
#
# 4) test it on your browser http://localhost/pythonmysample.py
#

def index(req):
        thetitle = "Python.my sample by dakc"
        mysite = siteheader(thetitle)
        mysite += sitebody(thetitle)
        mysite += sitefoot()
       return mysite

 def siteheader(title):
          str = "< html>< head>< title>" + title + "\n"
          str += "< /title>< /head>< body>\n"
          return str

def sitefoot():
        str = "\n< /body>< /html>"
         return str

def sitebody(title):
str = "< h1>" + title + "< /h1>\n"
 str += "
Hi mate!< br>\n" + \
 "This is the testing python site example.< br>< br>" + \
 "Coded by: dakc
" + \
 "Visit < a> href=\"http://easyybloger.blogspot.com\">http://easyybloger.blogspot.com
\n"
 return str

If you have problem opening the page on your ubuntu, here is the checklist:






1.Install apache2 and libapache2-mod-python and enable mod-python






$ sudo apt-get install apache2
$ sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-python
$ sudo a2enmod python






2.Edit /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default. Search for this lines:

< Directory /var/www/>

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews

AllowOverride None

 Order allow,deny

allow from all

< /Directory>

and add python handler like this:

< Directory /var/www/>

 Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews

AllowOverride None

 Order allow,deny

 allow from all

 AddHandler mod_python .py

PythonHandler mod_python.publisher

 PythonDebug On

< /Directory>

3.Restart your apache






$ sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart


That's all. Hope you enjoy it... Happy Coding!!
