Provides a simple server serving a static directory, which can be configured as haproxy backup server, kicking in when all normal servers are offline.
It is simple HTTP server, serving a static directory.
All requests which match no file in the static directory are responded with
the index.html which is expected to be placed in the static directory.
This is useful when a user is visiting the page at any URL while the maintenance server is activated. The user then stays at the same URL and can refresh until the system is back online and he is at the same place as he was before.
The server can be installed using zc.buildout, which generates a pre configured
bin/maintenance script:
[buildout]
parts += maintenance
[maintenance]
recipe = zc.recipe.egg
eggs = ftw.maintenanceserver
arguments = '${buildout:directory}/static', 8088
When using HAProxy the server can be simply configured as backup server,
which will only be used when all "normal" servers are offline:
