Re: how to serve static files with gevent ?

This should work, if you:
1. *run* the script from a directory that has a 'template'
subdirectory
2. you request the url /hello/template/style.css for the file
os.getcwd()/'template'/style.css


SharedDataMiddleware will call the wrapped application if it doesn't
find a file, so that's what you see.

The SharedDataMiddleware is a method in werkzeug. This is not as efficient because SharedDataMiddleware somehow uses werkzeug server to serve the static files and werkzeug server is only for development and not meant for production. so My question was like does gevent itself has static file serving inbuilt . ? If so How can i use it ?

you can use gunicorn with sendfile:
