[Twisted-Python] twisted.web problem on FreeBSD 4.7
by douglas savitsky Dec. 27, 2002

Dec. 27, 2002

I installed Python (2.2.1) from the port. I installed twisted 1.0.1 by downloading and running #python ./setup.py install as root, i ran #mktap web --path /usr/www --port 80 when i then run # coil web.tap I get the following traceback: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/coil", line 30, in ? run() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.2/site-packages/twisted/scripts/coil.py", line 89, in run p.load() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.2/site-packages/twisted/python/… [View More]

In http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2002-December/136243.html dsavitsk wants to hear from people who use Twisted as a web server: 'Last, Twisted seems really cool, but I don't know much about it and am looking for feedback from someone who has done this and can say whether it is a good options or not.'

[Twisted-Python] DelayedCall enhancements
by Bob Ippolito Dec. 24, 2002

Dec. 24, 2002

Here's a patch that adds two particularly useful methods to the IDelayedCall interface and implementation. It's quite possible to do it currently, but it's a kludge. Essentially what I added were methods to delay a DelayedCall by a configurable amount of time, and to reset a DelayedCall to happen a configurable amount of time from now. I also added a test case for each, and they pass. I can check it in if someone gives me the OK. -bob Index: twisted/internet/interfaces.py ===========… [View More]======================================================== RCS file: /cvs/Twisted/twisted/internet/interfaces.py,v retrieving revision 1.57 diff -r1.57 interfaces.py 317a318,319 > It also may be rescheduled by calling its C{delay()} > or C{reset()} methods. 347a350,370 > def delay(self, secondsLater): > """Delay the scheduled call. > @param secondsLater: how many seconds from its current firing time to delay > > @raises twisted.internet.error.AlreadyCalled: if the call has already > happened. > @raises twisted.internet.error.AlreadyCancelled: if the call has already > been cancelled. > """ > > def reset(self, secondsFromNow): > """Reset the scheduled call's timer. > @param secondsLater: how many seconds from now it should fire, equivalent > to C{self.cancel()} and then doing another > C{reactor.callLater(secondsLater, ...)} > > @raises twisted.internet.error.AlreadyCalled: if the call has already > happened. > @raises twisted.internet.error.AlreadyCancelled: if the call has already > been cancelled. > """ Index: twisted/internet/base.py =================================================================== RCS file: /cvs/Twisted/twisted/internet/base.py,v retrieving revision 1.29 diff -r1.29 base.py 48c48 < def __init__(self, time, func, args, kw, cancel): --- > def __init__(self, time, func, args, kw, cancel, reset): 49a50 > self.resetter = reset 61a63,79 > def reset(self, secondsFromNow): > if self.cancelled: > raise error.AlreadyCancelled > elif self.called: > raise error.AlreadyCalled > else: > self.time = time() + secondsFromNow > self.resetter(self) > > def delay(self, secondsLater): > if self.cancelled: > raise error.AlreadyCancelled > elif self.called: > raise error.AlreadyCalled > else: > self.time += secondsLater > self.resetter(self) 266c284,290 < tple = DelayedCall(time() + seconds, f, args, kw, self._pendingTimedCalls.remove) --- > tple = DelayedCall(time() + seconds, f, args, kw, self._pendingTimedCalls.remove, self._resetCallLater) > insort(self._pendingTimedCalls, tple) > return tple > > def _resetCallLater(self, tple): > assert tple in self._pendingTimedCalls > self._pendingTimedCalls.remove(tple) Index: twisted/test/test_internet.py =================================================================== RCS file: /cvs/Twisted/twisted/test/test_internet.py,v retrieving revision 1.13 diff -r1.13 test_internet.py 102a103,128 > def _resetcallback(self): > self._resetcallbackTime = time.time() > > def _delaycallback(self): > self._delaycallbackTime = time.time() > > def testCallLaterDelayAndReset(self): > self._resetcallbackTime = None > self._delaycallbackTime = None > ireset = reactor.callLater(0.5, self._resetcallback) > idelay = reactor.callLater(0.5, self._delaycallback) > start = time.time() > # chug a little before delaying > while time.time() - start < 0.2: > reactor.iterate(0.01) > ireset.reset(0.3) > idelay.delay(0.3) > # both should be called sometime during this > while time.time() - start < 0.9: > reactor.iterate(0.01) > self.assert_(0 < self._resetcallbackTime - start - 0.5 < 0.2) > self.assert_(0 < self._delaycallbackTime - start - 0.8 < 0.2) > > del self._resetcallbackTime > del self._delaycallbackTime > [View Less]

[Twisted-Python] SNMP support
by Neil Blakey-Milner Dec. 23, 2002

Dec. 23, 2002

Hi again, I needed SNMP (client) support for something I'm writing, and managed to hack my way to something that seems to work this aftenoon, based loosely on the DNS Boss system that was in 1.0.0. It uses the pure-python pysnmp (http://pysnmp.sourceforge.net/) for message encoding/decoding. I don't know whether this is the best way to organise this sort of thing, but it seemed to be about the only way to handle UDP effectively. I have no idea if I should be relying on transport.getHost() to … [View More]

[Twisted-Python] usage of sessions in twisted.web?
by Glyph Lefkowitz Dec. 23, 2002

Dec. 23, 2002

I'm thinking of making some pretty substantial changes to the way that Twisted deals with Sessions, as part of re-writing twisted.web.guard to work with Woven. Internally there are very few places where it's called (mostly in twisted.web.guard, which is exactly what I'm looking to get rid of ...) and it is a very naive, error-prone implementation. I'm just wondering how many of you out there are using sessions currently, and in what capacity, to see what upgrade path, if any, I should provide.… [View More]

[Twisted-Python] Letting me (or the list) know about stuff
by Moshe Zadka Dec. 22, 2002

Dec. 22, 2002

Dear Twisted Developers, As you may know, I am the Debian maintainer of Twisted. As you may also know, the debian packages get built during the normal Twisted build. Because of that, it often turns out that when the Debian packages Twisted development machines use internally built, I am not present physically. In fact, much work has been done to automate this process. However, sometimes the Debian side of things needs to be managed. For example, new conch scripts must be moved to the twisted-… [View More]

Glyph, I was reading you Mail in the archive: >Here is some internal rambling I've been doing about fixing up PB to be more >bulletproof. Apologies if it's not coherent to anyone else but I figured I'd >better mention the idea on the list and see of someone smarter than me can fill >in a gap or two :). And actually I'm thinking about security in client/server and multi-tier communiation. One idea I liked to discuss is: why not crypt the transmitted data via public / private keys? … [View More]
