10the name of a function, module, package, or a dotted reference to a
11class or function within a module or module in a package. If the
12argument contains a path segment delimiter (e.g. slash on Unix,
13backslash on Windows) it is treated as the path to a Python source file.

Nick Coghlan7bb30b72010-12-03 09:29:11 +000018Run "pydoc -p <port>" to start an HTTP server on the given port on the
19local machine. Port number 0 can be used to get an arbitrary unused port.
20
21Run "pydoc -b" to start an HTTP server on an arbitrary unused port and
22open a Web browser to interactively browse documentation. The -p option
23can be used with the -b option to explicitly specify the server port.

Ka-Ping Yee37f7b382001-03-23 00:12:53 +000025Run "pydoc -w <name>" to write out the HTML documentation for a module
26to a file named "<name>.html".

2103 Start server thread on port 0.
2104 If you use port 0, the server will pick a random port number.
2105 You can then use serverthread.port to get the port number.
2106
2107 >>> port = 0
2108 >>> serverthread = pydoc._start_server(my_url_handler, port)
2109
2110 Check that the server is really started. If it is, open browser
2111 and get first page. Use serverthread.url as the starting page.
2112
2113 >>> if serverthread.serving:

2122 Let the server do its thing. We just need to monitor its status.
2123 Use time.sleep so the loop doesn't hog the CPU.
2124
2125 >>> starttime = time.time()
2126 >>> timeout = 1 #seconds
2127
2128 This is a short timeout for testing purposes.
