<p>This module defines two classes for implementing HTTP servers (Web servers).
Usually, this module isn&#8217;t used directly, but is used as a basis for building
functioning Web servers. See the <a class="reference internal" href="simplehttpserver.html#module-SimpleHTTPServer" title="SimpleHTTPServer: This module provides a basic request handler for HTTP servers."><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">SimpleHTTPServer</span></tt></a> and

<p>The first class, <a class="reference internal" href="#BaseHTTPServer.HTTPServer" title="BaseHTTPServer.HTTPServer"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">HTTPServer</span></tt></a>, is a <tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">SocketServer.TCPServer</span></tt>
subclass, and therefore implements the <a class="reference internal" href="socketserver.html#SocketServer.BaseServer" title="SocketServer.BaseServer"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">SocketServer.BaseServer</span></tt></a>
interface.  It creates and listens at the HTTP socket, dispatching the requests
to a handler.  Code to create and run the server looks like this:</p>

<dd><p>This class builds on the <tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">TCPServer</span></tt> class by storing the server

<tt class="xref py py-attr docutils literal"><span class="pre">server_port</span></tt>. The server is accessible by the handler, typically

<dd><p>This class is used to handle the HTTP requests that arrive at the server. By
itself, it cannot respond to any actual HTTP requests; it must be subclassed
to handle each request method (e.g. GET or
POST). <a class="reference internal" href="#BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler" title="BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">BaseHTTPRequestHandler</span></tt></a> provides a number of class and
instance variables, and methods for use by subclasses.</p>
<p>The handler will parse the request and the headers, then call a method
specific to the request type. The method name is constructed from the
request. For example, for the request method <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">SPAM</span></tt>, the <tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">do_SPAM()</span></tt>
method will be called with no arguments. All of the relevant information is
