WsgiDAV

WsgiDAV is a generic WebDAV server written in Python and based on WSGI.

Main features:

• WsgiDAV is a stand-alone WebDAV server with SSL support, that can be installed and run as Python command line script on Linux, OSX, and Windows:
  

  $ pip install wsgidav cheroot
  $ wsgidav --host=0.0.0.0 --port=8080 --root=/tmp
  WARNING: share '/' will allow anonymous access.
  Running WsgiDAV/2.2.2 Cheroot/5.5.0 Python/3.4.2
  Serving on http://0.0.0.0:8080 ...
  

  Run wsgidav --help for a list of available options.

• WebDAV is a superset of HTTP, so WsgiDAV is also a performant, multi-threaded web server with SSL support.

• A binary MSI installer is available for Microsoft Windows.

• WsgiDAV is also a Python library that implements the WSGI protocol and can be run behind any WSGI compliant web server.
  

• WsgiDAV is implemented as a configurable stack of WSGI middleware applications.
  Its open architecture allows to extend the functionality and integrate WebDAV services into your project.
  Typical use cases are:

  • Expose data structures as virtual, editable file systems.
  • Allow online editing of MS Office documents.
