The Evolution of Finger: using a single factory for multiple protocols

Introduction

This is the eighth part of the Twisted tutorial Twisted from Scratch, or The Evolution of Finger .

In this part, we add HTTPS support to our web frontend, showing how to have a single factory listen on multiple ports. More information on using SSL in Twisted can be found in the SSL howto .

Support HTTPS

All we need to do to code an HTTPS site is just write a context factory (in this case, which loads the certificate from a certain file) and then use the twisted.application.internet.SSLServer method. Note that one factory (in this case, a site) can listen on multiple ports with multiple protocols.
