Okay so basically what I want to make is a connection between the python server and roblox studio (on localhost)

I dunno if roblox is really the best thing to use localhost on, for now I just couldnt make it work
Pretty sure there are other ways on doing this, I appreciate any help!

python-code which I copy pasted 
# Python 3 server example
from http.server import BaseHTTPRequestHandler, HTTPServer

hostName = "localhost"
serverPort = 8000

class MyServer(BaseHTTPRequestHandler):
    def do_GET(self):
        self.send_response_only(200)
        self.send_response(200)
        self.send_header("Content-type", "text/html")
        self.end_headers()
        self.wfile.write(bytes("<html><head><title>https://pythonbasics.org</title></head>", "utf-8"))
        self.wfile.write(bytes("<p>Request: %s</p>" % self.path, "utf-8"))
        self.wfile.write(bytes("<body>", "utf-8"))
        self.wfile.write(bytes("<p>This is an example web server.</p>", "utf-8"))
        self.wfile.write(bytes("</body></html>", "utf-8"))

if __name__ == "__main__":        
    webServer = HTTPServer((hostName, serverPort), MyServer)
    print("Server started http://%s:%s" % (hostName, serverPort))

    try:
        webServer.serve_forever()
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        pass

    webServer.server_close()
    print("Server stopped.")

I can’t see a post handler in the python code, is there one?

Edit: I don’t think the server can access localhost:8000, you might have to give it your IP address and add the server port or smth

Your server only allows GET requests.

if you want it to handle POST requests, then change it to “do_POST”

Ahhh this is literally so obvious, the keyword “post handler” made me realize that def do_GET is actually referring to the method itself :joy: :woozy_face:

Thanks for the help! I’ve added a post handler now!
