Known subclasses: twisted.mail.pop3.AdvancedPOP3Client, twisted.mail.pop3.POP3, twisted.mail.pop3.POP3Client, twisted.mail.smtp.SMTP, twisted.protocols.ident.IdentClient, twisted.protocols.ident.IdentServer

A protocol that receives only lines.

This is purely a speed optimisation over LineReceiver, for the cases that raw mode is known to be unnecessary.

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 dataReceived Translates bytes into lines, and calls lineReceived.
Method lineReceived Override this for when each line is received.
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:

Method logPrefix Return a prefix matching the class name, to identify log messages related to this protocol instance.
Method connectionLost Called when the connection is shut down.

Inherited from BaseProtocol (via Protocol):

Method makeConnection Make a connection to a transport and a server.
Method connectionMade Called when a connection is made.
delimiter =
The line-ending delimiter to use. By default this is b'\r\n'.
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.
def dataReceived(self, data): (source)

Translates bytes into lines, and calls lineReceived.

def lineReceived(self, line): (source)

Override this for when each line is received.

ParameterslineThe line which was received with the delimiter removed. (type: bytes)
def sendLine(self, line): (source)

Sends a line to the other end of the connection.

ParameterslineThe line to send, not including the delimiter. (type: bytes)
def lineLengthExceeded(self, line): (source)

Called when the maximum line length has been reached. Override if it needs to be dealt with in some special way.
