t.w.p.ProxyClient(HTTPClient) : class documentation

Part of twisted.web.proxy View Source View In Hierarchy

Used by ProxyClientFactory to implement a simple web proxy.
Method __init__ Undocumented
Method connectionMade Called when a connection is made.
Method handleStatus Called when the status-line is received.
Method handleHeader Called every time a header is received.
Method handleResponsePart Undocumented
Method handleResponseEnd Finish the original request, indicating that the response has been completely written to it, and disconnect the outgoing transport.
Instance Variable _finished A flag which indicates whether or not the original request has been finished yet.

Inherited from HTTPClient:

Instance Variable length The length of the request body in bytes. (type: int)
Instance Variable firstLine Are we waiting for the first header line? (type: bool)
Method sendCommand Undocumented
Method sendHeader Undocumented
Method endHeaders Undocumented
Method extractHeader Given a complete HTTP header, extract the field name and value and process the header.
Method lineReceived Parse the status line and headers for an HTTP request.
Method connectionLost Called when the connection is shut down.
Method handleEndHeaders Called when all headers have been received.
Method rawDataReceived Override this for when raw data is received.
Instance Variable __buffer The buffer that stores the response to the HTTP request. (type: A StringIO object.)
Instance Variable _header Part or all of an HTTP request header. (type: bytes)

Inherited from LineReceiver (via HTTPClient):

Class Variable delimiter The line-ending delimiter to use. By default this is b'\r\n'.
Class Variable MAX_LENGTH The maximum length of a line to allow (If a sent line is longer than this, the connection is dropped). Default is 16384.
Method clearLineBuffer Clear buffered data.
Method dataReceived Protocol.dataReceived. Translates bytes into lines, and calls lineReceived (or rawDataReceived, depending on mode.)
Method setLineMode Sets the line-mode of this receiver.
Method setRawMode Sets the raw mode of this receiver. Further data received will be sent to rawDataReceived rather than lineReceived.
Method sendLine Sends a line to the other end of the connection.
Method lineLengthExceeded Called when the maximum line length has been reached. Override if it needs to be dealt with in some special way.

Inherited from Protocol (via HTTPClient, LineReceiver):

Method logPrefix Return a prefix matching the class name, to identify log messages related to this protocol instance.

Inherited from BaseProtocol (via HTTPClient, LineReceiver, Protocol):

Method makeConnection Make a connection to a transport and a server.

Inherited from _PauseableMixin (via HTTPClient, LineReceiver):

Method pauseProducing Undocumented
Method resumeProducing Undocumented
Method stopProducing Undocumented
_finished =
A flag which indicates whether or not the original request has been finished yet.
def __init__(self, command, rest, version, headers, data, father): (source)
Undocumented
def connectionMade(self): (source)
Called when a connection is made.

This may be considered the initializer of the protocol, because it is called when the connection is completed. For clients, this is called once the connection to the server has been established; for servers, this is called after an accept() call stops blocking and a socket has been received. If you need to send any greeting or initial message, do it here.

def handleStatus(self, version, code, message): (source)
Called when the status-line is received.
Parametersversione.g. 'HTTP/1.0'
statuse.g. '200' (type: bytes)
messagee.g. 'OK'
def handleHeader(self, key, value): (source)
Called every time a header is received.
def handleResponsePart(self, buffer): (source)
Undocumented
def handleResponseEnd(self): (source)
Finish the original request, indicating that the response has been completely written to it, and disconnect the outgoing transport.
