<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="#SimpleHTTPServer.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler" title="SimpleHTTPServer.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">SimpleHTTPRequestHandler</span></tt></a> class defines the following methods:</p>

<dd><p>The request is mapped to a local file by interpreting the request as a
path relative to the current working directory.</p>
<p>If the request was mapped to a directory, the directory is checked for a
file named <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">index.html</span></tt> or <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">index.htm</span></tt> (in that order). If found, the
file’s contents are returned; otherwise a directory listing is generated
by calling the <tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">list_directory()</span></tt> method. This method uses
<a class="reference internal" href="os.html#os.listdir" title="os.listdir"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">os.listdir()</span></tt></a> to scan the directory, and returns a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">404</span></tt> error
response if the <tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">listdir()</span></tt> fails.</p>
<p>If the request was mapped to a file, it is opened and the contents are
returned. Any <a class="reference internal" href="exceptions.html#exceptions.IOError" title="exceptions.IOError"><tt class="xref py py-exc docutils literal"><span class="pre">IOError</span></tt></a> exception in opening the requested file is
mapped to a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">404</span></tt>, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">'File</span> <span class="pre">not</span> <span class="pre">found'</span></tt> error. Otherwise, the content
type is guessed by calling the <tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">guess_type()</span></tt> method, which in turn
uses the <em>extensions_map</em> variable.</p>
<p>A <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">'Content-type:'</span></tt> header with the guessed content type is output,
followed by a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">'Content-Length:'</span></tt> header with the file’s size and a
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">'Last-Modified:'</span></tt> header with the file’s modification time.</p>
<p>Then follows a blank line signifying the end of the headers, and then the
contents of the file are output. If the file’s MIME type starts with
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">text/</span></tt> the file is opened in text mode; otherwise binary mode is used.</p>
