Part of twisted.names.dns View Source View In Hierarchy

Implements interfaces: twisted.names.dns.IEncodable

A resource record header.
Instance VariablesnameThe name about which this reply contains information.
typeThe query type of the original request.
clsThe query class of the original request.
ttlThe time-to-live for this record.
payloadAn object that implements the IEncodable interface
authWhether this header is authoritative or not.
Class Variablesfmtstr specifying the byte format of an RR.
Method __init__
Method encode Write a representation of this object to the given file object.
Method decode Reconstruct an object from data read from the given file object.
Method isAuthoritative Undocumented
Method __str__ Undocumented

Inherited from FancyEqMixin:

Method __eq__ Undocumented
Method __ne__ Undocumented
def __init__(self, name='', type=A, cls=IN, ttl=0, payload=None, auth=False): (source)
ParametersnameThe name about which this reply contains information. (type: str )
typeThe query type. (type: int )
clsThe query class. (type: int )
ttlTime to live for this record. (type: int )
payloadA Query Type specific data object. (type: An object implementing IEncodable )
def encode(self, strio, compDict=None): (source)
Write a representation of this object to the given file object.
ParametersstrioThe stream to which to write bytes (type: File-like object )
compDictA dictionary of backreference addresses that have have already been written to this stream and that may be used for compression. (type: dict or None )
def decode(self, strio, length=None): (source)
Reconstruct an object from data read from the given file object.
ParametersstrioThe stream from which bytes may be read (type: File-like object )
lengthThe number of bytes in this RDATA field. Most implementations can ignore this value. Only in the case of records similar to TXT where the total length is in no way encoded in the data is it necessary. (type: int or None )
def isAuthoritative(self): (source)
Undocumented
def __str__(self): (source)
