WsgiDAV

Open in Visual Studio Code (experimental)

A generic and extendable 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=80 --root=/tmp --auth=anonymous
Running without configuration file.

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

The python-pam library is
needed as extra requirement if pam-login authentication is used on Linux
or OSX:
```
$ pip install wsgidav[pam]
$ wsgidav --host=0.0.0.0 --port=8080 --root=/tmp --auth=pam-login
```
Note: Windows users may prefer the
MSI Installer
(see Assets section), or use winget:
```
> winget install wsgidav
```
WebDAV is a superset of HTTP, so WsgiDAV is also a performant, multi-threaded
web server with SSL support.
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.
