I'm trying to write a simple 'https over http tunnel' server in python.
Every other thing works out fine except the connection between the client and the server persist and ends up blocking( forever ).
I'm pretty sure they carry out the SLL handshake because they both send and receive a couple of times before it hangs.
here's the server code:
import socket
import threading
class SocketWrapper:
def __init__(self,sock = None):
if sock is None:
self.socket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET,socket.SOCK_STREAM)
else:
self.socket = sock
def connect(self,host,port):
try:
self.socket.connect((host,int(port)))
return True
except socket.error:
return False
def close(self):
# close the socket connection
self.socket.shutdown(socket.SHUT_RDWR)
self.socket.close()
def send(self,data):
bytes_sent = 0
msg_len = len(data)
while bytes_sent < msg_len:
sent = self.socket.send(data[bytes_sent:])
bytes_sent += sent
def receive(self):
chunks = []
while True:
try:
self.socket.settimeout(0.5)
chunk = self.socket.recv(4096)
chunks.append(chunk)
except socket.error:
self.socket.settimeout(0)
break;
return b''.join(chunks)
class HttpTunnel:
def __init__(self,host='localhost',port=3000):
# create the server socket,bind and listen
self.host,self.port = host,port
self.socket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET,socket.SOCK_STREAM)
self.socket.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET,socket.SO_REUSEADDR,1)
self.socket.bind((self.host,self.port))
self.socket.listen(3)
print("listening on port",self.port)
self.running = True
def handleClientRequest(self,connection,address):
print("Connected to",address)
clientSocket = SocketWrapper(connection)
meta = clientSocket.receive().decode().split('\r\n')[0]
# getting method,uri,version from 'CONNECT host:port HTTP/1.1'
method,uri,version = meta.split(' ')
host,port = uri.split(':')
serverSocket = SocketWrapper()
# if connection to the remote server is created successfuly
if(serverSocket.connect(host,port)):
print("Connected to remote server")
# send connection success message to the client
clientSocket.send(b'HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\n\r\n');
while True:
try:
clientResponse = clientSocket.receive()
serverSocket.send(clientResponse)
print("Sent client - server")
serverResponse = serverSocket.receive()
clientSocket.send(serverResponse)
print("Sent server - client")
except socket.error:
break;
else:
# send someking of error. In this case 404
serverSocket.send(b'HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found\r\n\r\n')
# close the connection
clientSocket.close()
serverSocket.close()
def mainloop(self):
while self.running:
# accept client connection
connection,address = self.socket.accept()
self.handleClientRequest(connection,address)
proxy = HttpTunnel()
proxy.mainloop()
the client code:
import urllib
import urllib.request as request
proxy = request.ProxyHandler({
'https':'https://127.0.0.1:3000'
})
opener = request.build_opener(proxy)
request.install_opener(opener)
try:
resp = request.urlopen('https://google.com')
print(resp.read())
except Exception as e:
print(e)
the client did not get the response from the server and therefore prints nothing.
here's the server output:
listening on port 3000
Connected to ('127.0.0.1', 54888)
Connected to remote server
Sent client - server
Sent server - client
Sent client - server
Sent server - client
Sent client - server
There are several problems here:
The main problem is that you don't handle the case when recv returns 0 since the socket gets closed. Instead you run into an endless loop where no data get read and no data get send. Some simple print statements which actually show how much data are read would have helped to track this problem down.
Apart from that the idea of polling each file handle after each other using settimeout is a bad approach. Instead check the file handles in parallel and then read from the one which has data - see select.
And finally you are assuming that socket.send will send all data given. This is not the case, it might send less. Check the return code or just use socket.sendall
i recently started making a pure skype resolver and after doing everything fine i stuck on the socket communication.
Let me explain
I'm using python to get the user's IP and then the script opens a socket server and it sends the username to an other program written in .NET
Why is that? Well, the python skype API is not that powerfull so i'm using the axSkype library in order to gather more info.
The problem
The python socket sends the username as it should but i dont know the most efficient way to get the info back. I was thinking opening a socket server in the same script and wait for what the .NET program sends back.
I dont really kwon how to make this as fast as possible so i'm asking for your help.
The code
class api:
def GET(self, username):
skypeapi.activateSkype(username)
time.sleep(1) # because skype is ew
buf = []
print("==========================")
print("Resolving user " + username)
#This is where i'm starting the socket and sending data
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.connect(("127.0.0.1", 5756))
s.sendall(username)
s.close()
#at this poaint i want to get data back from the .NET app
for logfile in glob.glob('*.log'):
buf += logparse.search(logfile, username)
print("Done!")
print("==========================")
return json.dumps(buf)
class index:
def GET(self):
return render.index()
if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run()
You can bind your socket to the connection. This way, your socket stream will remain open and you will be able to send and receive information easily. Integrate this with the _thread module and you will be able to handle multiple streams. Here is some example code that binds a socket to a stream and just sends back whatever the clients sends it(Although in your case you could send whatever data is necessary)
import socket
from _thread import *
#clientHandle function will just receive and send stuff back to a specific client.
def clientHandle(stream):
stream.send(str.encode("Enter some stuff: "))
while True:
#Here is where the program waits for a response. The 4000 is a buffer limit.
data = stream.recv(4000)
if not data:
#If there is not data, exit the loop.
break
stream.senddall(str.encode(data + "\n"))
#Creating socket.
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
host = "" #In this case the host is the localhost but you can put your host
port = 80
try:
#Here the program tries to bind the socket to the stream.
s.bind((host, port))
except socket.error as e:
print("There was an error: " + str(e))
#Main program loop. Uses multithreading to handle multiple clients.
while True:
conn, addr = s.accept()
print("Connected to: " + addr[0] + ": " + str(addr[1]))
start_new_thread(clientHandle,(conn,))
Now in your case, you can integrate this into your api class(Is that where you want to integrate it? Correct me if I'm wrong.). So now when you define and bind your socket, use this code:
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.bind((host, port))
Where, in your case, host is 127.0.0.1, in other words, your localhost, which can also be accessed by socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname())(but that's a bit verbose), and then port, which for you is 5756. Once you have bounded your socket, you have to accept connections through the following syntax:
conn, addr = s.accept()
Which then you can pass conn and addr to whatever function or just use in any other code.
Regardless of what you use it in, to receive data you can use socket.recv() and pass it a buffer limit. (Remember to decode whatever you receive.) And of course, you send data by using socket.sendall().
If you combine this with the _thread module, as shown above, you can handle multiple api requests, which could come handy in the future.
Hope this helps.
I'm trying to develop a chat program in python. I want it to have multiple clients so I'm using threading to handle this. However when I try to send the message to all connected clients, the server only sends it to the client which sent the message. I'm not sure if I'm just missing something obvious but here is the code for the server:
import socket
from thread import *
host = '192.168.0.13'
port = 1024
users = int(input("enter number of users: "))
def clienthandler(conn):
while True:
data = conn.recv(1024)
if not data:
break
print data
conn.sendall(data)
conn.close()
serversock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
serversock.bind((host, port))
serversock.listen(users)
for i in range(users):
conn, addr= serversock.accept()
print 'Connected by', addr
start_new_thread(clienthandler, (conn,))
And here is the code for the client:
import socket
host = '192.168.0.13'
port = 1024
usrname = raw_input("enter a username: ")
usrname = usrname + ": "
clientsock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
clientsock.connect((host, port))
while True:
x = raw_input('You: ')
x = usrname + x
clientsock.sendall(x)
data = clientsock.recv(1024)
print data
The "all" in sendall means that it sends all of the data you asked it to send. It doesn't mean it sends it on more than one connection. Such an interface would be totally impractical. For example, what would happen if another thread was in the middle of sending something else on one of the connections? What would happen if one of the connections had a full queue?
sendall: Send data to the socket. The socket must be connected to a remote socket. The optional flags argument has the same meaning as for recv() above. Unlike send(), this method continues to send data from string until either all data has been sent or an error occurs. None is returned on success. On error, an exception is raised, and there is no way to determine how much data, if any, was successfully sent. -- 17.2. socket
You can try by pulling up the list of users, and iterating through it, and doing an individual send of the same message, though, unless you are the administrator and want to broadcast a warning, this functionality would be pretty mundane.
Hello I tried to make a simple server that accept multiple clients simultaneously I'm new to python and I have a difficult to understand it....I try to change my code in multi-thread applications but without positive result...here is the code:
import socket, threading
def message():
while 1:
data = connection.recv(1024)
if not data: break
#connection.sendall(b'-- Message Received --\n')
print(data.decode('utf-8'))
connection.close()
def connection():
address = input("Insert server ip")
port = 44444
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.bind((address, port))
s.listen(1)
print("Server started! Waiting for connections...")
def accept connection():
connection, address = s.accept()
print('Client connected with address:', address)
t=thread.Threading(target=message,args=(connection))
t.run()
I know that there are many errors but I'm new in python sorry :(
The original non-threaded code is:
import socket
address = input("Insert server ip:")
port = 44444
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.bind((address, port))
s.listen(1)
print("Server started! Waiting for connections...")
connection, address = s.accept()
print('Client connected with address:', address)
while 1:
data = connection.recv(1024)
if not data: break
#connection.sendall(b'-- Message Received --\n')
print(data.decode('utf-8'))
connection.close()
Your basic design is close, but you've got a whole lot of little problems making it hard to move forward.
First, you have a function name with a space in it, which isn't allowed. And you have an IndentationError because you didn't indent its contents.
Next, inside that accept_connection function, you're using threading wrong.
thread.Threading doesn't exist; you probably meant threading.Thread.
args has to be a sequence (tuple, list, etc.) of values. You probably expected (connection) to be a tuple of one value, but it's not; tuples are defined by commas, not parentheses, and what you have is just the value connection with superfluous parentheses around it. You wanted (connection,) here.
Also, calling run on a thread object just runs the thread's code in the current thread. You want to call start, which will start a new thread and call the run method on that thread.
Meanwhile, you're never actually calling this function anywhere, so of course it can't do anything. Think about where you want to call it. After creating the listener socket, you want to loop around accept, kicking off a new client thread for each accepted connection, right? So, you want to call it in a loop, either inside connection, or at the top level (in which case connection has to return s).
And finally, your accept_connection function can't access local variables from some other function; if you want it to use a socket named s, you have to pass it as a parameter.
So:
def connection():
address = input("Insert server ip")
port = 44444
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.bind((address, port))
s.listen(1)
print("Server started! Waiting for connections...")
while True:
accept_connection(s)
def accept_connection(s):
connection, address = s.accept()
print('Client connected with address:', address)
t=thread.Threading(target=message, args=(connection,))
t.start()
As a side note, be careful with using sock.recv(1024) and assuming you're going to get the whole message that the other side sent with send(msg). You might get that, or you might get half the message, or the whole message plus half of another message the client sent later. Sockets are just streams of bytes, like files, not streams of separate messages; you need some kind of protocol to separate messages.
The simplest possible protocol is to send each message on its own line. Then you can just do socket.makefile() and for line in f:, just like you would for a real file. Of course this doesn't work if your messages can have newlines, but you can, e.g., backslash-escape them on one side and unescape them on the other.
This is a pretty old post but there's a nice way to do what you're talking about. Here's a link to an example I posted a little while back:

I am doing a client-server project for my college project,
we have to allocate the login to the client.
Client system will request its status for every 2 seconds(to check whether the client is locked or unlocked). and server will accept the client request and reply the client status to the system.
But the problem is server thread is not responding to the client request.
CLIENT THREAD:
def checkPort():
while True:
try:
s = socket.socket()
s.connect((host, port))
s.send('pc1') # send PC name to the server
status = s.recv(1024) # receive the status from the server
if status == "unlock":
disableIntrrupts() # enable all the functions of system
else:
enableInterrupts() # enable all the functions of system
time.sleep(5)
s.close()
except Exception:
pass
SERVER THREAD:
def check_port():
while True:
try:
print "hello loop is repeating"
conn, addr = s.accept()
data = conn.recv(1024)
if exit_on_click == 1:
break
if (any(sublist[0] == data for sublist in available_sys)):
print "locked"
conn.send("lock")
elif (any(sublist[0] == data for sublist in occupied_sys)):
conn.send("unlock")
print "unlocked"
else:
print "added to gui for first time"
available_sys.append([data,addr[0],nameText,usnText,branchText])
availSysList.insert('end',data)
except Exception:
pass
But my problem is server thread is not executing more than 2 time,
So its unable to accept client request more than one time.
can't we handle multiple client sockets using single server socket?
How to handle multiple client request from server ?
Thanks for any help !!
Its because your server, will block waiting for a new connection on this line
conn, addr = s.accept()
This is because calls like .accept and .read are blocking calls that hold the process
You need to consider an alternative design, where in you either.
Have one process per connection (this idea is stupid)
One thread per connection (this idea is less stupid than the first but still mostly foolish)
Have a non blocking design that allows multiple clients and read/write without blocking execution.
To achieve the first, look at multiprocessing, the second is threading the third is slightly more complicated to get your head around but will yield the best results, the go to library for event driven code in Python is twisted but there are others like
gevent
tulip
tornado
And so so many more that I haven't listed here.
here's an full example of implementing a threaded server. it's fully functional and comes with the benefit of using SSL as well. further, i use threaded event objects to signal another class object after storing my received data in a database.
please note, _sni and _cams_db are additional modules purely of my own. if you want to see the _sni module (provides SNI support for pyOpenSSL), let me know.
what follows this, is a snippet from camsbot.py, there's a whole lot more that far exceeds the scope of this question. what i've built is a centralized message relay system. it listens to tcp/2345 and accepts SSL connections. each connection passes messages into the system. short lived connections will connect, pass message, and disconnect. long lived connections will pass numerous messages after connecting. messages are stored in a database and a threading.Event() object (attached to the DB class) is set to tell the bot to poll the database for new messages and relay them.
the below example shows
how to set up a threaded tcp server
how to pass information from the listener to the accept handler such as config data and etc
in addition, this example also shows
how to employ an SSL socket
how to do some basic certificate validations
how to cleanly wrap and unwrap SSL from a tcp socket
how to use poll() on the socket instead of select()
db.pending is a threading.Event() object in _cams_db.py
in the main process we start another thread that waits on the pending object with db.pending.wait(). this makes that thread wait until another thread does db.pending.set(). once it is set, our waiting thread immediately wakes up and continues to work. when our waiting thread is done, it calls db.pending.clear() and goes back to the beginning of the loop and starts waiting again with db.pending.wait()
while True:
db.pending.wait()
# after waking up, do code. for example, we wait for incoming messages to
# be stored in the database. the threaded server will call db.pending.set()
# which will wake us up. we'll poll the DB for new messages, relay them, clear
# our event flag and go back to waiting.
# ...
db.pending.clear()

let's start with a bare bones threaded tcp server.
class ThreadedTCPServer(socketserver.ThreadingMixIn, socketserver.TCPServer):
def __init__(self, server_address, HandlerClass):
socketserver.BaseServer.__init__(self, server_address, HandlerClass)
self.address_family = socket.AF_INET
self.socket = socket.socket(self.address_family, self.socket_type)
self.socket.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR, 1)
self.server_bind()
self.server_activate()
class ThreadedTCPRequestHandler(socketserver.BaseRequestHandler):
def handle(self):
# self.request is your accepted socket, do all your .read() and .wirte() on it
s = self.request
request = s.read(1024)
# decide locked or unlocked. this example arbitrarily writes back 'locked'
s.write('locked')
# we're done, close the socket and exit with a default return of None
s.close()
ok, start your threaded server with this in your main() function:
server = threading.ThreadedTCPServer(('127.0.0.1', 1234), ThreadedTCPRequestHandler)
t = threading.Thread(target=server.serve_forever, name='optional_name')
t.start()
now you can let the threading module handle the semantics of concurrency and not worry about it.
You might want to take a look at 0MQ and concurrent.futures. 0MQ has a Tornado event loop in the library and it reduces the complexity of socket programming. concurrent.futures is a high level interface over threading or multiprocessing.
You can see different concurrent server approaches at
https://bitbucket.org/arco_group/upper/src
These will help you to choose the better way for you.
