Question

I can’t seem to figure out how to access POST data using WSGI. I tried the example on the wsgi.org website and it didn’t work. I’m using Python 3.0 right now. Please don’t recommend a WSGI framework as that is not what I’m looking for.

I would like to figure out how to get it into a fieldstorage object.

Assuming you are trying to get just the POST data into a FieldStorage object:

# env is the environment handed to you by the WSGI server. # I am removing the query string from the env before passing it to the # FieldStorage so we only have POST data in there. post_env = env.copy() post_env['QUERY_STRING'] = '' post = cgi.FieldStorage(     fp=env['wsgi.input'],     environ=post_env,     keep_blank_values=True )
