[Twisted-Python] Twisted Python 0.7.0 Prerelease Testing
by Glyph Lefkowitz Aug. 5, 2021

Aug. 5, 2021

hi there, folks: I'd really like to release 0.7.0 but I would like it to be at least a little bit tested before I do so. Could those of you with CVS trees check everything out and see if it performs as advertised? Deeper bugs than that will have to wait for the next release, but I'd at least like to know if it works for someone other than me. Thanks. ______ __ __ _____ _ _ | ____ | \_/ |_____] |_____| |… [View More]

[Twisted-Python] [patch] mktap web --resource
by Sune Kirkeby Aug. 12, 2002

Aug. 12, 2002

Hi, all! Attached is a short patch to add a --resource option to "mktap web", here is the --help for it: -r, --resource= <class> is the name (including module) of a subclass of twisted.web.resource.Resource to publish. So you can have any subclass of t.w.r.Resource be the 'root' of your web-server. I have also been working on a few other things: - an async Pytho-only PostgreSQL interface (not t.e.adbapi compatible, since I am not usre I like it's interface … [View More]

[Twisted-Python] Patch for dbauth.tac in examples
by Steve Waterbury Aug. 6, 2002

Aug. 6, 2002

Since I want to implement a PB-based app with db authorization, I was tinkering with the dbauth.tac example in an effort to educate myself. Changed "passport" to "cred" and set the database explicitly (created the dbcred tables in the "twisted" database that bugs uses). "Create an Identity", "remove", and "[change] password" work; there seems to be a problem with gotPerspectives' call to dbgadgets.py, but I haven't messed with gadgets (don't need them yet), so I won't be looking at … [View More]

[Twisted-Python] Dynamic web application using twisted.web.resource
by Mukhsein Johari Aug. 3, 2002

Aug. 3, 2002

Hello fellow twisters, This is a question (albeit a long one) directed at twisted.web and resource. The project: I would like to serve a dynamic website using the twisted web server. I understand that the webserver's 'root' directory can be set at a file? I may have a misunderstanding of the code and docs but if so, feel free to set me straight. The website (not real): http://www.mywebsite.com/ This is the root of the site, which is in reality a erm..rpy? program? Which means that there … [View More]

[Twisted-Python] You guys rock
by barry＠zope.com July 31, 2002

July 31, 2002

I wanted to test out some news/mail gatewaying for Mailman 2.1 but I didn't want to go through the hassle of actually connecting things up to a real news server, and I /definitely/ didn't want to actually try to install inn or some nonesense (I'd like to do some other work this week :). I wished I had something like Lib/smtpd.py in the Python distro for the server side of NNTP, then it dawned on me that I remember Moshe and crew saying that Twisted comes with a news server. Well, let's just … [View More]

Hi I'd like to second this request. Downloading cvs versions via the viewcvs page would be a big win. +1 Jon

[Twisted-Python] Please allow download of tarballs from viewcvs[2]
by norbert.klamann＠klamann-software.de July 30, 2002

July 30, 2002

[Sorry, forgot to sign the mail] Hello, list, would you mind to allow the generation of tarballs from cvs repository on the fly? It is technically possible in viewcvs, at least on new versions. It is a Setting in viewcvs's configuration file. I can't use cvs in itself because of firewall issues on customer's site. Cvsgrab doesn't cut it either, because it can't handle the parameter handling of your viewcvs installation. Another possibility would be an upgrade to viewcvs à la sourceforge, … [View More]

[Twisted-Python] API docs
by Christopher Armstrong July 30, 2002

July 30, 2002

I was talking to MetaCosm, and he said the template for API docs he uses in his professional projects is like so: """ Usage: foo() -> baz Examples: if blah(): foo() Big Picture: (!!) This class is meant to be used in a Quuxer, and you should usually override the getBaz method to return a Spam instance, although it's not required. NOTES: This class is currently in a state of flux; it will soon be refactored, so watch out for API changes """ etc. The main thing here is "Big … [View More]

[Twisted-Python] FAST 03 (Usenix conference on File Storage Technologies)
by Laura Creighton July 29, 2002

July 29, 2002

I was looking for interesting conferences where Strakt could present a paper and found this one. I think that a paper on Twisted would be accepted if anybody is interested in writing one. 4000 - 6000 words due Sept 03. (Automatic extension to Sept 10). There is also a request for 'works in progress' and 'provocative opinions'. These only have to be one page long. They mention that they are particularly interested in student work. See: http://www.usenix.org/events/fast03/cfp/ if … [View More]
