Hypercorn is an `ASGI
`_ and
WSGI web server based on the sans-io hyper, `h11
`_, `h2
`_, and `wsproto
`_ libraries and inspired by
Gunicorn. Hypercorn supports HTTP/1, HTTP/2, WebSockets (over HTTP/1
and HTTP/2), ASGI, and WSGI specifications. Hypercorn can utilise
asyncio, uvloop, or trio worker types.

Hypercorn can optionally serve the current draft of the HTTP/3
specification using the `aioquic
`_ library. To enable this install
the ``h3`` optional extra, ``pip install hypercorn[h3]`` and then
choose a quic binding e.g. ``hypercorn --quic-bind localhost:4433
...``.

Hypercorn was initially part of `Quart
`_ before being separated out into a
standalone server. Hypercorn forked from version 0.5.0 of Quart.

Quickstart
----------

Hypercorn can be installed via `pip
`_,

.. code-block:: console

$ pip install hypercorn

and requires Python 3.8 or higher.

With hypercorn installed ASGI frameworks (or apps) can be served via
Hypercorn via the command line,

.. code-block:: console

$ hypercorn module:app

Alternatively Hypercorn can be used programatically,

.. code-block:: python

import asyncio
from hypercorn.config import Config
from hypercorn.asyncio import serve

from module import app

asyncio.run(serve(app, Config()))

learn more (including a Trio example of the above) in the `API usage
`_
docs.

Contributing
------------

Hypercorn is developed on `Github
`_. If you come across an issue,
or have a feature request please open an `issue
`_. If you want to
contribute a fix or the feature-implementation please do (typo fixes
welcome), by proposing a `pull request
`_.

Testing
~~~~~~~

The best way to test Hypercorn is with `Tox
`_,

.. code-block:: console

$ pipenv install tox
$ tox

this will check the code style and run the tests.

Help
----

The Hypercorn `documentation `_ is
the best place to start, after that try searching stack overflow, if
you still can't find an answer please `open an issue
`_.
