How do you get the current URL for a Python uwsgi app?

Question

I'm using this uwsgi app: http://projects.unbit.it/uwsgi/wiki

def application(env, start_response):
  start_response('200 OK', [('Content-Type','text/html')])
  return "Hello World"

I'd like to know what my current URL is, for example:

localhost:9090/some/path/here?a=b&c=d

For some reason this isn't in the docs. Am I missing something fundamental here? What should I be looking up? How do I get the current URL?

Also, how do you get stuff like:

Cookies, Accept Language, Headers, etc.

Answer 1

It's all in env, and wsgiref.util can help you get to it. And none of it is specific to uWSGI, which is just a WSGI container.

Answer 2

Most (if not all) servers is based on Apache (grandaddy). The environment is standardized.

Try: env['HTTP_HOST'], env['PATH_INFO'], env['HOST_NAME'], env['REQUEST_METHOD'], env['REQUEST_URI']
