Re: [SyncEvolution] SSL support, Syncevolution as HTTP server?

The Syncevolution HTTP server setup docs say somewhat cryptically

any work relating to this?
Someone needs to hack the source code of syncevo-http-server.py, which
no-one has had the time to do.
I expect that the main changes will be in the main() function:
def main():
parser = optparse.OptionParser(usage=usage)
(options, args) = parser.parse_args()
if len(args) != 1:
print "need exactly on URL as command line parameter"
exit(1)
url = urlparse.urlparse(args[0])
root = resource.Resource()
root.putChild(url.path[1:], SyncMLPost(url))
site = server.Site(root)
reactor.listenTCP(url.port, site)
reactor.run()
A new command line argument will be needed to specify the SSL
certificate that the server is meant to use. Then this information must
be passed into Twisted's site instance before running it. No idea how to
do that, but that's only because I haven't looked yet.
