# Python Wisp Server
This is an implementation of a [Wisp](https://github.com/MercuryWorkshop/wisp-protocol) server, written in Python. It follows the Wisp v1 spec completely, including support for UDP connections.
## Installation:
### Install From Source:
Clone this repository and cd into it, then run the following commands:
```
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip3 install -e .
```
### Install From PyPI:
Run the following command to install this program:
```
pip3 install wisp-python
```
## Running the Server:
For the best performance use [CPython](https://github.com/python/cpython) 3.11 or newer. [PyPy](https://github.com/pypy/pypy) is not recommended as it is a lot slower than CPython here.
To start the server, run `python3 -m wisp.server`. The program accepts the following arguments:
```
usage: wisp-server-python [-h] [--host HOST] [--port PORT] [--static STATIC] [--limits] [--bandwidth BANDWIDTH] [--connections CONNECTIONS] [--window WINDOW] [--allow-loopback] [--allow-private] [--log-level LOG_LEVEL]
[--threads THREADS] [--proxy PROXY] [--block-udp] [--block-tcp]
A Wisp server implementation, written in Python (v0.8.1)
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--host HOST The hostname the server will listen on.
--port PORT The TCP port the server will listen on.
--static STATIC Where static files are served from.
--limits Enable rate limits.
--bandwidth BANDWIDTH
Bandwidth limit per IP, in kilobytes per second.
--connections CONNECTIONS
New connections limit per IP.
--window WINDOW Fixed window length for rate limits, in seconds.
--allow-loopback Allow connections to loopback IP addresses.
--allow-private Allow connections to private IP addresses.
--log-level LOG_LEVEL
The log level (either debug, info, warning, error, or critical).
--threads THREADS The number of threads to run the server on. By default it uses all CPU cores. (Linux only)
--proxy PROXY The url of the socks5h, socks5, sock4a, socks4 or http proxy to use.
--block-udp Block UDP streams.
--block-tcp Block TCP streams.
```
## Roadmap:
- ~~Rate limits~~
- JSON based config files
- ~~UDP support~~
- ~~Ability to block local addresses~~
- Wisp v2 support
