Good day everyone,

I'm trying to rewrite some existing Arduino code to python. Basically the arduino just receives an http post request then parses the request and sends it as a text message. Then when it receives a text message it sends it to a server where all it's text messages are stored.

void loop()
{
if(serial.available())
{
//check for new sms
}
if(server.available())
{
//send sms code
}
}

I can do it with sample code above. But I want to rewrite it in python. While the HTTP server is idle it should be checking for incoming sms. But when I turn on the http server I can't do anything else other than send sms based on the post request received.

I'm using sim800l to send a text message and http.server library to handle http requests.

The 'C' code you show is just a shell, and  won't actually do anything.
I assume you have the docs for the sim
You can use Python Flask
Here's a small sample of how to do it on the sim800
