#gevent-fastcgi
FastCGI/WSGI server implementation using gevent library. No need to monkeypatch and slow down your favourite FastCGI server in order to make it "green".
Supports connection multiplexing. Out-of-the-box support for Django and frameworks that use PasteDeploy including Pylons and Pyramid.
$ pip install gevent-fastcgi
or
$ easy_install gevent-fastcgi
from gevent_fastcgi.server import WSGIServer
from myapp import app
server = WSGIServer(('127.0.0.1', 4000), app, max_conns=1024)
# To use UNIX-socket instead of TCP
# server = WSGIServer('/path/to/socket', app, max_conns=1024, max_reqs=1024 * 1024)
server.serve_forever()Gevent-fastcgi defines paste.server_runner entry point. Use it as following:
...
[server:main]
use = egg:gevent_fastcgi#fastcgi
host = 127.0.0.1
port = 4000
# Unix-socket can be used by specifying path instead of host and port
# socket = /path/to/socket
# The following values are used in reply to Web-server on `FCGI_GET_VALUES` request
#
# Maximum allowed simulteneous connections, i.e. the size of greenlet pool used for connection handlers.
max_conns = 1024
#
# Does not limit anything on FastCGI server side. Just a clue to Web-server on how many simulteneous requests
# can be handled by FastCGI server. This can be much higher than `max_conns` thanks to FastCGI connection multiplexing
max_reqs = 1024000
# Fork up to `num_workers` child processes after socket is bound.
# Must be equal or greate than 1. No children will be actually forked if set to 1 or omitted.
num_workers = 4
# Call specified functions of gevent.monkey module before starting the server
#gevent.monkey.patch_os = yes
#gevent.monkey.patch_thread = yes
#gevent.monkey.patch_time = yes
#gevent.monkey.patch_socket = yes
#gevent.monkey.patch_ssl = yes
# or
#gevent.monkey.patch_all = yes
