I'm writing a small web server in Python, using BaseHTTPServer and a custom subclass of BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler. Is it possible to make this listen on more than one port?

What I'm doing now:

class MyRequestHandler(BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler):
  def doGET
  [...]

class ThreadingHTTPServer(ThreadingMixIn, HTTPServer): 
    pass

server = ThreadingHTTPServer(('localhost', 80), MyRequestHandler)
server.serve_forever()

Sure; just start two different servers on two different ports in two different threads that each use the same handler. Here's a complete, working example that I just wrote and tested. If you run this code then you'll be able to get a Hello World webpage at both http://localhost:1111/ and http://localhost:2222/

from threading import Thread
from SocketServer import ThreadingMixIn
from BaseHTTPServer import HTTPServer, BaseHTTPRequestHandler

class Handler(BaseHTTPRequestHandler):
    def do_GET(self):
        self.send_response(200)
        self.send_header("Content-type", "text/plain")
        self.end_headers()
        self.wfile.write("Hello World!")

class ThreadingHTTPServer(ThreadingMixIn, HTTPServer):
    daemon_threads = True

def serve_on_port(port):
    server = ThreadingHTTPServer(("localhost",port), Handler)
    server.serve_forever()

Thread(target=serve_on_port, args=[1111]).start()
serve_on_port(2222)

update:

This also works with Python 3 but three lines need to be slightly changed:

from socketserver import ThreadingMixIn
from http.server import HTTPServer, BaseHTTPRequestHandler

and

self.wfile.write(bytes("Hello World!", "utf-8"))
