Python和HTML实时数据

Question

I have a python script which is collecting data that look like this:

> Total visitor today: 30
> Current visitors:    5

And I would like to show that data in a small html site in real time. Is there a way to interact this 2 languages? maybe using a small SQLite DB or simply a .txt? .csv? .xml? how can avoid writing and reading at the same time?

I have some limitation in the environment. I only have 16Mb to use and I can currently use SQLite, html, JavaScript and basic python.

Thanks.

Answer 1

I would recommend building a basic Flask webapp. Not only can you dynamically update your webpage without needing a refresh (check out Flask-Sijax ), it will also host it for you out of the box, meaning you can save yourself the work getting a full web server installed to your limited storage. Flask is only 550 kB and is BSD licensed!

I ended up using a python library for xml writing and reading. https://docs.python.org/2/library/xml.etree.elementtree.html
