Kynlo's Software / Python Web Sever
« Last post by KynloStephen66515 on Today at 09:26 AM »This is a Python-based web server that supports serving static files, executing PHP scripts, file uploads, rate limiting, IP whitelisting/blacklisting, and HTTPS using self-signed certificates. The server is highly configurable via a `config.json` file.
[h2]Features[/h2]
- Serves static files from the current directory
- Executes PHP scripts using the `php` command
- Supports file uploads via POST requests to `/upload`
- Rate limiting to prevent abuse (configurable requests per minute)
- IP whitelisting and blacklisting for access control
- HTTPS support using self-signed certificates
- Customizable entry point (default: `index.html`)
- Logging of requests to a log file
- Graceful shutdown on Ctrl-C
- Opens the entry point in a web browser on server start
[h2]Requirements[/h2]
- Python 3.x
- `php` command available in PATH (for PHP script execution)
- `OpenSSL` Python library (for HTTPS support)
[h2]Configuration[/h2]
The server can be configured using a `config.json` file in the same directory as the script. The following options are available:
- port: The port number to run the server on (default: 8080)
- entry_point: The default file to serve when accessing the root URL (default: `index.html`)
- use_https: Whether to enable HTTPS using a self-signed certificate (default: `false`)
- certfile: The path to the certificate file for HTTPS (default: `cert.pem`)
- keyfile: The path to the private key file for HTTPS (default: `key.pem`)
- cert_config: Configuration options for generating the self-signed certificate (default: `{}`)
- C: Country (default: `US`)
- ST: State (default: `California`)
- L: Locality (default: `San Francisco`)
- O: Organization (default: `My Company`)
- OU: Organizational Unit (default: `My Organization`)
- CN: Common Name (default: `localhost`)
- serial_number: Serial number (default: `1000`)
- valid_days: Number of days the certificate is valid for (default: `3650`)
- C: Country (default: `US`)
- rate_limit: The maximum number of requests per minute per IP (default: `10`)
- whitelist: A list of IP addresses that are allowed to access the server (default: `[]`)
- blacklist: A list of IP addresses that are blocked from accessing the server (default: `[]`)
- log_file: The path to the log file for request logging (default: `server.log`)
[list=1]
- Clone the repository or download the `main.py` file.
- Create a `config.json` file in the same directory as `main.py` with your desired configuration options.
- Place your static files and PHP scripts in the same directory or subdirectories.
- Run the server using `python main.py`.
- Access the server in a web browser at `http://localhost:8080` (or the configured port).
