python socket programming for beginners code example

Example 1: socket programming in python

#!/usr/bin/env python3

import socket

HOST = '127.0.0.1'  # Standard loopback interface address (localhost)
PORT = 65432        # Port to listen on (non-privileged ports are > 1023)

with socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) as s:
    s.bind((HOST, PORT))
    s.listen()
    conn, addr = s.accept()
    with conn:
        print('Connected by', addr)
        while True:
            data = conn.recv(1024)
            if not data:
                break
            conn.sendall(data)

Example 2: python socket server

import socket

socket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
socket.bind(('', 15555))

while True:
        socket.listen(5)
        client, address = socket.accept()
        print "{} connected".format( address )

        response = client.recv(255)
        if response != "":
                print response

print "Close"
client.close()
stock.close()
