t.p.a.Path(Unicode) : class documentation

Part of twisted.protocols.amp View Source View In Hierarchy

Encode and decode filepath.FilePath instances as paths on the wire.

This is really intended for use with subprocess communication tools: exchanging pathnames on different machines over a network is not generally meaningful, but neither is it disallowed; you can use this to communicate about NFS paths, for example.
Method fromString Convert a string to a Python object. Subclasses must implement this.
Method toString Convert a Python object into a string for passing over the network.

Inherited from Argument (via Unicode, String):

Method __init__ Create an Argument.
Method retrieve Retrieve the given key from the given dictionary, removing it if found.
Method fromBox Populate an 'out' dictionary with mapping names to Python values decoded from an 'in' AmpBox mapping strings to string values.
Method toBox Populate an 'out' AmpBox with strings encoded from an 'in' dictionary mapping names to Python values.
Method fromStringProto Convert a string to a Python value.
Method toStringProto Convert a Python object to a string.
def fromString(self, inString): (source)

Returnsthe decoded value from inString
def toString(self, inObject): (source)
Convert a Python object into a string for passing over the network.
ParametersinObjectan object of the type that this Argument is intended to deal with.
