In this tutorial, we are going to use Python to setup pcDuino as a we b server:

1. Install Requests (Requests is a HTTP client library of Python)

1. $ sudo apt–get install python–requests

2. Install python-pip (python-pip is a tool used to install and manage python software package)

1. $sudo apt–get install python–imaging python–imaging–tk python–pip python–dev git

Note: If the above command failed, please run the following command first:

1. $sudo pip install flask

3. Install Flask (Flask is a light weight web application framework written in Python):

1. $sudo pip install flask

4. Sample code:

1. from flask import Flask
2. app = Flask(__name__)
3. @app.route(“/”)
4. def hello():
5. return ” Welcome to pcDuino ! “
6. if __name__ == “__main__”:
7. app.run(host=‘0.0.0.0’, port=80, debug=True)

Save the above code to a file named hello-flash.py, and run “sudo python ./helleo-flash.py”:

5. Use ‘ifconfig’ command to find out the IP address of pcDuino:

6. On another PC or iPad that shares the same router, open a web browser, and input 192.168.1.35:

You can see that it works! At the same time, on pcDuino’s terminal, the following message will display:
