[Twisted-Python] Twisted Python 0.7.0 Prerelease Testing
by Glyph Lefkowitz 06 Aug '21

06 Aug '21

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. ______ __ __ _____ _ _ | ____ | \_/ |_____] |_____| |_____| |_____ | | | | @ t w i s t e d m a t r i x . c o m http://www.twistedmatrix.com/~glyph/

[Twisted-Python] ANN: Twisted 1.0.6 (includes security fixes)
by Itamar Shtull-Trauring 01 Jul '03

01 Jul '03

IMPORTANT: This release includes security updates to twisted.web. It is strongly recommended that you upgrade to this version of Twisted. Twisted is an event-driven networking framework for server and client applications. For more information, visit http://www.twistedmatrix.com, join the list http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python or visit us on #twisted at irc.freenode.net. What's New in 1.0.6 =================== - Security fixes for twisted.web. - Cred, Twisted's unified authentication and authorization framework, was rewritten. While still not stable, the new system is far superior and developers are encouraged to start using it. - Flow, an utility page for integrating asynchronous control flow with generators and iterators. - Many improvements to the UDP subsystem. - Many Windows-specific networking bug fixes. - Cleanups in Woven - outputted HTML no longer includes attributes used by templating, removed fake-acquisition for templates. - Support switching over to TLS from TCP connections (useful for e.g. STARTTLS in SMTP.) - Improvements to the mail protocols and infrastructure. - Fixed 2.2.0 compatibility. - Index support for Lore. - Bug fixes, documentation updates and small feature improvements.

[Twisted-Python] Keeping the same design sitewide?
by Thomas Weholt 01 Jul '03

01 Jul '03

Hi, I was wondering how I can use Woven and keep the overall "sceleton" of my design in one file and wrap that around my templates at run-time? I mean, I want to create one page which links to my stylesheet, displays a logo, some header-text and a footer that will be the same site wide, and then just glue what the different pages generate into the sceleton-file. Any clues on how to keep the design in one file and still use Woven? Thomas

[Twisted-Python] map Url to function
by Achim Domma (ProCoders) 30 Jun '03

30 Jun '03

Hi, I started playing around with twisted.web and want to map the Url to function calls with parameters. For example http://myserver.net/mainhandler/somefkt/parama/paramb should be call some 'mainhandler'. This should be a script which gets '/somefkt/parama/paramb' and knows what to do with it. What's the easiest way to do this? regards, Achim

[Twisted-Python] Big Shot
by Glyph Lefkowitz 30 Jun '03

30 Jun '03

Amir Bakhtiar, international man of mystery, has authorized me to offer a $100 bounty on a feature for Twisted. We need a performance testing and regression tool. Some parameters on its functionality: it has to have a graphical display of performance history. It should be able to show at least three parameters: wall clock time, memory usage, and CPU usage. The more, the better. It should be able to rapidly show a developer the impact of a particular change on a performance metric. It will have to have at least a little integration with divmod and/or trial so that it can be run with the rest of the tests to produce a graph of where various bits of performance are going. Last but not least, it would be _really_ nice if it included some actually meaningful metrics, like "HTTP requests per second", "IRC messages per second", "PB bytes per message". One that I would personally really like to see is "reactor responsiveness" parameterized by various kinds of load. I've written a little sketch which may give you some ideas in sandbox/timings.py. Only one bounty is being offered, so if you're thinking about working on this, please discuss your intentions here! If two folks work together, you're welcome to split it, but if we get multiple implementations, only the "winner" (the one accepted for inclusion in Twisted) gets it. So Long Space Cowboy...

[Twisted-Python] PATCH: imap4.py: fix when calling splitQuoted on empty string
by Abe Fettig 30 Jun '03

30 Jun '03

To get a list of all folders, Evolution's IMAP client uses this syntax: LIST "" "" This results in an error, since the "" "" part goes through splitQuoted twice (once in IMAP4Server.listWork, the second in IMAP4Server._parseMbox). The second time through the quotes have been removed (leaving an empty string), which causes splitQuoted to return [] instead of ['']. I've attached a simple patch that demonstrates one possible way to fix the problem. Abe

[Twisted-Python] Ramblings about creating URLs in Twisted Web
by Donovan Preston 29 Jun '03

29 Jun '03

Just thought I'd let people know I posted a fairly long piece about the problems inherent with creating URLs in Twisted Web, and a hopeful solution: http://www.ulaluma.com/pyx/archives/000581.html BTW, if anyone has a better moveabletype template, or a good Blog written in Python (and twisted? :) I would like to expend as little energy as possible with perl-related software but still have a nice Blog... dp
