#!/usr/bin/env python

"""This server runs an HTTP server (using tornado) and several code servers
using XMLRPC that can be submitted code
and tests and returns the output.  It *should* be run as root and will run as
the user 'nobody' so as to minimize any damange by errant code.  This can be
configured by editing settings.py to run as many servers as desired.  One can
also specify the ports on the command line.  Here are examples::

  $ sudo ./code_server.py
  # Runs servers based on settings.py:SERVER_PORTS one server per port given.

or::

  $ sudo ./code_server.py 8001 8002 8003 8004 8005
  # Runs 5 servers on ports specified.

All these servers should be running as nobody.  This will also start a server
pool that defaults to port 50000 and is configurable in
settings.py:SERVER_POOL_PORT.  This port exposes a `get_server_port` function
that returns an available server.
