Host HTML pages

This is a simple example on how to host a HTML page on Domino. There are a number of ways to host web applications of course but this example shows how you can integrate a simple HTTP server using python with Domino. You could also add javascript and other pages to your project. The example in this note just shows how you would start the server to support your pages.

Files

You’ll need to create a file in your project (in addition to your files required for your page such as index.html). app.py

import http.server
import socketserver
PORT = 8888
Handler = http.server.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler
httpd = socketserver.TCPServer(("", PORT), Handler)
print ("serving at port", PORT)
httpd.serve_forever()

When publishing the app you select app.py as the app file. When Domino launches your app, it runs the app.py file within the container that contains your project files. Note that port selection is flexible and port 8888 is no longer required.
