class twisted.names.dns.Query: (source)

Implements interfaces: twisted.names.dns.IEncodable

View In Hierarchy

Represent a single DNS query.

Instance Variable name The name about which this query is requesting information.
Instance Variable type The query type.
Instance Variable cls The query class.
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 __hash__ Undocumented
Method __cmp__ Undocumented
Method __str__ Undocumented
Method __repr__ Undocumented
name = (source)
The name about which this query is requesting information.
(type: Name)
type = (source)
The query type.
(type: int)
The query class.
(type: int)
def __init__(self, name=b'', type=A, cls=IN): (source)
ParametersnameSee Query.name (type: bytes or str)
typeThe query type. (type: int)
clsThe query class. (type: int)
def encode(self, strio, compDict=None): (source)

Write a representation of this object to the given file object.

ParametersstrioThe buffer to write to. It must have a tell() method. (type: File-like object)
compDictA mapping of names to byte offsets that have already been written to the buffer, which may be used for compression (see RFC 1035 section 4.1.4). When None, encode without compression. (type: dict of bytes to int r None)
def decode(self, strio, length=None): (source)

Reconstruct an object from data read from the given file object.

ParametersstrioA seekable buffer 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)
