5.5.3.1.18. wsgidav.wsgidav_app

WSGI container, that handles the HTTP requests. This object is passed to the WSGI server and represents our WsgiDAV application to the outside.

On init:

Use the configuration dictionary to initialize lock manager, property manager, domain controller.

Create a dictionary of share-to-provider mappings.

Initialize middleware objects and RequestResolver and setup the WSGI application stack.

For every request:

Find the registered DAV provider for the current request.

Add or modify info in the WSGI environ:

environ[“SCRIPT_NAME”]

Mount-point of the current share.

environ[“PATH_INFO”]

Resource path, relative to the mount path.

environ[“wsgidav.provider”]

DAVProvider object that is registered for handling the current request.

environ[“wsgidav.config”]

Configuration dictionary.

environ[“wsgidav.verbose”]

Debug level [0-3].

Log the HTTP request, then pass the request to the first middleware.

Note: The OPTIONS method for the ‘*’ path is handled directly.

See Developers info for more information about the WsgiDAV architecture.
