Benoit Chesneau e90b1c2c1e fix: address six WSGI/ASGI parser and protocol findings
- WSGI fast parser now applies the same per-header policy as the Python
  parser (Expect, secure_scheme_headers, forwarded_allow_ips trust gate,
  forwarder_headers / header_map). Shared helpers extracted on Message.

- ASGI keepalive no longer resets the parser when the previous request
  body was not fully framed; the connection closes instead, preventing
  request smuggling on pipelined connections.

- BodyReceiver._wait_for_data timeout flips _closed and yields
  http.disconnect rather than synthesizing more_body=False. Timeout
  honors cfg.timeout.

- ASGI chunked encoding now skips HEAD, 204, and 304 (matches
  Response.is_chunked in the WSGI path) via a small helper.

- _setup_callback_parser passes proxy_protocol to PythonProtocol; auto
  falls back to the Python parser when proxy_protocol != off (the C
  parser does not implement PROXY framing). _effective_peername swaps
  the transport peer with the PROXY-supplied client address.

- Parser.finish_body accepts a deadline and a 64KiB byte cap; gthread
  passes a deadline and abandons keepalive on incomplete drain so a
  stalled client cannot tie up a worker thread.

PyPI version Supported Python versions Build Status

Gunicorn 'Green Unicorn' is a Python WSGI HTTP Server for UNIX. It's a pre-fork worker model ported from Ruby's Unicorn project. The Gunicorn server is broadly compatible with various web frameworks, simply implemented, light on server resource usage, and fairly speedy.

New in v25: Per-app worker allocation for dirty arbiters, HTTP/2 support (beta)!

Quick Start

pip install gunicorn
gunicorn myapp:app --workers 4

For ASGI applications (FastAPI, Starlette):

gunicorn myapp:app --worker-class asgi

Features

  • WSGI support for Django, Flask, Pyramid, and any WSGI framework
  • ASGI support for FastAPI, Starlette, Quart
  • HTTP/2 support (beta) with multiplexed streams
  • Dirty Arbiters (beta) for heavy workloads (ML models, long-running tasks)
  • uWSGI binary protocol for nginx integration
  • Multiple worker types: sync, gthread, gevent, eventlet, asgi
  • Graceful worker process management
  • Compatible with Python 3.9+
