[Twisted-Python] Twisted Python 0.7.0 Prerelease Testing
by Glyph Lefkowitz 05 Aug '21

05 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] Get IP of connecting client in XMLRPC server

Hello, On 18 May 2004, the following message was posted to this mailinglist: Jp Calderone exarkun at divmod.com wrote: >Daniel Newton wrote: > > I have a simple XML-PRC server similar to the example below: > > from twisted.web import xmlrpc, server > > class Example(xmlrpc.XMLRPC): > """An example object to be published.""" > > def xmlrpc_add(self, a, b): > """Return sum of arguments.""" > return a + b def xmlrpc_whatIsMyAddress(self): return self.transport.getPeer().host > > if __name__ == '__main__': > from twisted.internet import reactor > r = Example() > reactor.listenTCP(7080, server.Site(r)) > reactor.run() > > I want to be able to get the address of the client that calls the xmlrpc > method can anyone help me with this? This solution didn't work because 'transport' isn't a property of the Example class. I'm currently in the process of changing from a customized SimpleXMLRPCServer to a twisted XMLRPC server solution and I need to insert the client IP into the attributes passed to the called xmlrpc method. Anyone who knows the answer and is willing to share the info? Regards, Remy

[Twisted-Python] twisted and threading
by twisted-10152003＠atlas.lcs.mit.edu 26 Nov '04

26 Nov '04

I wrapped a c library using swig and was hoping to make use of it in a twisted server I am writing. The issue is that the c library fundamentally blocks waiting for input that may never come. Is there a way from twisted to deal with this cleanly within the framework? I.e. some combination of adding a reactor.addSystemEventTrigger event and calling reactor.threadpool.stop seem like it should work but I haven't had any luck yet. (I saw all the previous posts on this topic, but the recommendations don't seem applicable in my case since the blocking is occurring outside my control in a c library and the blocking call may never return.) Thanks, Steve Bauer

[Twisted-Python] Things that Need to be Done for 2.0
by Christopher Armstrong 10 Sep '04

10 Sep '04

glyph: Come up with a precise license and copyright policy. Do that, and someone (probably me) can change trunk HEAD to use it. Everyone: Get rid of all deprecation warnings when running current APIs. Me: Finish converting our packaging to use zpkgtools, obsoleting half of release-twisted. Then improve release-twisted (fix bugs in SVN workflow, etc). Me: Write documentation on release process and teach people how to do it. Moshez: At least do the initial work for Debian packages for each of our subprojects. Web Sites, in order of importance: Someone: Move existing Twisted-core-specific content to a new Core project web site. foom, fzZzy, dreid: Write a project web site for Web. z3p: Write a project web site for Conch. exarkun: Write project web sites for names, news, and mail. spiv: Write a project web site for Lore and Runner. glyph, z3p, exarkun, ???: Write a project web site for Words. cce: Write a project web site for Flow. Tv: Write a project web site for Pair. Project web sites are to be placed at http://twistedmatrix.com/projects/*/, where * is 'core', 'conch', 'web', etc. Put your content in the WebSite svn repository in "twistedmatrix.com/projects/". If anybody needs access to this repository shoot me a message. Obviously, not all of these are terribly urgent. The urgent ones are core, names, conch, lore, and web. If nobody gets around to creating real web sites for the others, I'll put in place a basic stock web page. -- Twisted | Christopher Armstrong: International Man of Twistery Radix | Release Manager, Twisted Project ---------+ http://radix.twistedmatrix.com

I think the single biggest contribution anyone could make to Twisted would be to help document it. It is a brilliantly written but really opaque bunch of code. I think someone who understands what's going on and knows how to write English (not necessarily a programmer) should be given SVN write access for the sole purpose of adding informative docstrings throughout the source. -- Ed Suominen Registered Patent Agent Open Source Developer (Yes, both...)

[Twisted-Python] xmlstream, parser bug & utf16 support
by James Bunton 30 Aug '04

30 Aug '04

Hi all. I've started using the Jabber support in Twisted for building PyMSNt (a python MSN transport). I seem to have found a bug in the XML parser. Firstly, it seems to raise an exception whenever an incoming packet has an attribute xml:lang="en" For example.. <iq to="someaddr" type="get" xml:lang="en"/> will cause the parser to raise an exception. Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/twisted/internet/default.py", line 526, in doSelect _logrun(selectable, _drdw, selectable, method, dict) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/twisted/python/log.py", line 65, in callWithLogger callWithContext({"system": lp}, func, *args, **kw) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/twisted/python/log.py", line 52, in callWithContext return context.call({ILogContext: newCtx}, func, *args, **kw) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/twisted/python/context.py", line 43, in callWithContext return func(*args,**kw) --- <exception caught here> --- File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/twisted/internet/default.py", line 535, in _doReadOrWrite why = getattr(selectable, method)() File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/twisted/internet/tcp.py", line 255, in doRead return self.protocol.dataReceived(data) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/twisted/protocols/xmlstream.py", line 158, in dataReceived self.stream.parse(buf) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/twisted/xish/domish.py", line 593, in parse self.parser.Parse(buffer) File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/twisted/xish/domish.py", line 602, in _onStartElement attrs[k.split(" ")] = v Any help on fixing this would be appreciated. Also, does anybody have any clues on how to send utf16 characters in the xmlstream? I can't seem to work it out. Thanks in advance.. --- James

[Twisted-Python] sshsimpleclient.py example
by Michael Trosen 28 Aug '04

28 Aug '04

Hi Everyone, I'm new to using the twisted framework, so excuse me if this is a basic question.. When I run the sshsimpleclient.py example, to an external site, everything works fine (I just change the code to use my username and server information.) However, if I try to ssh to my localhost, it prints out the host key fingerprint, and then hangs.. never prompting for the password. Is there something different about trying to connect to localhost (I changed the code slightly, to take a command line parameter for the username/host..: if I use: python sshsimpleclient.py myuser(a)echoes.dhs.org it works perfectly if I use: python sshsimpleclient.py root@localhost it hangs. I am running Suse 9.1 Professional, and I can ssh to the host just using the regular openssh ssh exe. Thanks! And awesome job on Twisted! Mike Trosen

I just switched everything in Subversion from LGPL to MIT, at glyph's command. The policy that he outlined: 1) All contributions or inclusions must be MIT licensed. 1.a) If you want to include someone else's code in Twisted, it still has to be MIT licensed, but keep their own copyright notice intact. 2) Anybody who's a contributor and wants their name listed as a copyright holder can have their name added to the LICENSE file (I copied everyone from CREDITS into LICENSE initally). 3) Put this preamble at the top of files: # Copyright (c) 2001-2004 Twisted Matrix Laboratories. # See LICENSE for details.

I was looking over the page on twistedmatrix.com on contributing, and it referred me to here. Over at the mono project, they have a todo-list sort of thing, that idle hackers such as myself can work on. I was wondering what the best way (besides monetary...I am a poor student) to contribute to the Twisted project is?
