PyngPyng

A CGI parser to hand execution off to the WSGI application

Registered by Scott Armitage on 2009-05-07

WSGI is used as the base applicable model. Any other gateway interface (CGI, FastCGI, mod_python, etc.) needs to have a proper WSGI environment set up (i.e. environ, start_response) in order to pass code execution off to the application through the WSGI call.

This server interface *shall* support CGI. It may additionally support FastCGI, mod_python, or any other non-WSGI gateway interface.

Whiteboard

The module server.cgi exposes the `run_wsgi(application)` function. Calling this function (and passing the WSGI application as the sole parameter) will build a WSGI environment from the existing CGI environment and call the passed application, writing the results to the server's output stream.
