What's the meaning of the default output of manage.py runserver?

What's the meaning of the default output of manage.py runserver? Can't find any documentation on it:

[25/Jan/2013 07:45:59] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 149
Solution

  • I've marked up the default output to help explain its meaning:

    ([25/Jan/2013 07:45:59]) ("GET / HTTP/1.1") (200) (149)

(Datetime request was sent) (telnet/netcat-style plaintext request string) (HTTP status code) (bytes sent as response)

    All these can be confirmed in your favorite browsers dev console.
