request.body blocks when there is no POST body #116
Description
I have a very simple WSGI application. When the request has no POST body, request.body blocks:
from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server
from webob import Request, Response
class MyApp(object):
def __call__(self, environ, start_response):
request = Request(environ)
response = Response()
print request.body # blocks here
response.body = 'Hello, World!'
return response(environ, start_response)
httpd = make_server('localhost', 8080, MyApp())
try:
httpd.serve_forever()
except KeyboardInterrupt:
print '^C'
Making a request via curl:
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/
