communication between c++ qt server with python django server

[prabhatjha]

hello everyone, I had developed a messaging application that is desktop based in c++ qt.
But now i want to make it web based application.i want to use my existing server that is written in c++ with qt.
and, for client i am using python (Django framework) but i dont have more idea how to communicate our clinet(i.e written in python django) to server (i.e written in c++ with qt).
please give me some solution,if you have any idea.or,if you have other idea to make web based messaging application.you can share to me .

Thanks..

You need some way to communicate between the Python code and the C++ server, much like a web backend communicates with a database server, e.g. using a local socket connection.

Another option could be to use a HTTP server library written in C or C++ and use that in the chat server to make it directly accessible through HTTP, e.g. http://stefanfrings.de/qtwebapp/index-en.html or https://github.com/nikhilm/qhttpserver

our application is not only chat application ..
in our application there are lots of feature like audio calling,video calling,messagin like whatsapp,gmail feature and so on....
so, i have no more idea that http qtwebsocket will work on this.
so we are moving on python django for client and server will be on c++ qt.

Not sure why you mention web sockets especially if you have already determined that it doesn't do what you need.

The existing Qt client (user's machine) talks to any existing Qt server (server machine) through some channel, most likely a QTcpSocket Just make your PHP client (now on server machine) talk to the Qt server exactly the same way.
