First, you need to create a server. One of the simplest options would be using a third-party module for this. For instance, flask is a popular web framework with a built-in server:

from datetime import datetime
from flask import Flask

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def hello_world():
    now = datetime.now()
    current_time = now.strftime("%H:%M:%S")
    return current_time

Save it to server.py and then run using:

> export FLASK_APP=server.py
> flask run
 * Running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/

Access http://127.0.0.1:5000/ from your browser or using wget http://127.0.0.1:5000/ or curl http://127.0.0.1:5000/.
