POHow can I keep multiple gevent servers serving forever?
text
Body
copied!<p>Currently, I have an application that has two servers: the first processes orders and responds individually, the second broadcasts results to other interested subscribers. They need to be served from different ports. I can start() both of them, but I can only get one or the other to serve_forever() as I read it is a blocking function. I am looking for ideas on how to keep both the servers from exiting. abbreviated code below:</p> <pre><code>def main(): stacklist = [] subslist = [] stacklist.append(CreateStack('stuff')) subslist.append(Subscription('stuff')) bcastserver = BroadcastServer(subslist) # creates a new server tradeserver = TradeServer(stacklist) # creates a new server bcastserver.start() # start accepting new connections tradeserver.start() # start accepting new connections #bcastserver.serve_forever() #if I do it here, the first one... #tradeserver.serve_forever() #blocks the second one class TradeServer(StreamServer): def __init__(self, stacklist): self.stacklist = stacklist StreamServer.__init__(self, ('localhost', 12345), self.handle) #self.serve_forever() #If I put it here in both, neither works def handle(self, socket, address): #handler here class BroadcastServer(StreamServer): def __init__(self, subslist): StreamServer.__init__(self, ('localhost', 8000), self.handle) self.subslist = subslist #self.serve_forever() #If I put it here in both, neither works def handle(self, socket, address): #handler here </code></pre> <p>Perhaps I just need a way to keep the two from exiting, but I'm not sure how. In the end, I want both servers to listen forever for incoming connections and handle them.</p>
