Also I just noticed another bug: With input string (two characters): "\ the output should be (6 chars): "\"\\" but is currently completely incorrect: "\"\" I think that second can be fixed with: _cmdLineQuoteRe = re.compile(r'(\\*)"') _cmdLineQuoteRe2 = re.compile(r'(\\+)\Z') def _cmdLineQuote(s): return '"' + _cmdLineQuoteRe2.sub(r"\1\1", _cmdLineQuoteRe.sub (r'\1\1\\"', s)) + '"' James

[Twisted-Python] Generally useful RFC2617
by David Reid 03 Nov '05

03 Nov '05

Currently in Twisted/sandbox/dreid/rfc2617.py (with unittests at test_rfc2617.py) there is an implementation of RFC 2617 HTTP Authentication: Basic and Digest based authentication. It is based on the implementations found in twisted.protocols.sip, mantissa.sip, and sine.sip. The goal was to pull the sip specific stuff from these implementations and make something that would be useful for other protocols such as HTTP and IMAP. A couple of points are unclear however. 1) Where to put it? In theory it should be in twisted core. I just don't know where, and didn't want to check it in there somewhere only to have developers with more pull than I have to disagree, itamar suggested t.py.digest, dash seemed to agree, other suggestions were t.cred.digest, but I just don't know. 2) IAuthorizer. rfc2617.IAuthorizer, and *.sip.IAuthorizer before it, strike me as a really poorly named interface. It's purpose is to create challenges, and decode the response into something that can be used to return an ICredentials. This seems like a more generally useful concept than just to HTTP Auth, but there isn't currently anything like it cred. (Note I'm aware of cred.authorizer but they are not even similar interfaces, which is part of the reason IAuthorizer is so poorly named.) Anyway, I'm just hoping someone will tell me where to put it other than "where the sun don't shine" because I think that's covered under *.sip -David

[Twisted-Python] How could I add reliability to a udp client
by Eddy Xu 03 Nov '05

03 Nov '05

This is my situation: I have a client to send UDP messages to multi servers, and I have to ensure all the messages be recieved by special server. If the client didn't get the response , it should re-send the message for times. I think i need maintain a FIFO queue for all messages, but i have no idea how to deal with the different status of message, such as send but not recieved message, don't be send, and have resent for times. Can you help me?

Yeah, see: http://www.wsanchez.net/blog/archives/000116.html I might be able to get started with getting some of this into the twisted repository this weekend, with some help from dreid, but in the meantime, you can use the external module in my red-bean repository. -wsv

Re: [Twisted-Python] Remove setupClass branch of trial - what is the motivation?
by Ed Suominen 01 Nov '05

01 Nov '05

Same here, since I actually use setupClass and teardownClass quite a bit in my own unit tests. To me, there doesn't seem to be to be a valid reason for any plans to take away the flexibility of performing setup for an entire TestCase, in addition to or instead of setup for each individual test. (I use both.) Below is a use case for setupClass and teardownClass that is about more than just convenience, especially when more tests are added to the class. - Ed Suominen ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- class TestViews(TestCase): """ Does the View widget permit display of multiple views with tabs as advertised?

[Twisted-Python] twisted words irc patch for usernames
by Avleen Vig 01 Nov '05

01 Nov '05

Currently when twisted connects to an irc server, the username on the USER connect line, is assumed to be the same as the nickname. Below is a patch that lets the username be set manually the same way as 'password' is defined. If a username isn't specified, it defaults to assuming self.username = nickname I found this useful to connect to a server which required a specific username as part of its authentication but I didn't want to / need to run ident. I couldn't think of a good reason for not being able to set the username if we can already set everything else :-) Index: Twisted/twisted/words/protocols/irc.py =================================================================== --- Twisted/twisted/words/protocols/irc.py (revision 14959) +++ Twisted/twisted/words/protocols/irc.py (working copy) @@ -535,6 +535,7 @@ nickname = 'irc' password = None realname = None + username = None ### Responses to various CTCP queries. userinfo = None @@ -895,7 +896,9 @@ if self.password is not None: self.sendLine("PASS %s" % self.password) self.setNick(nickname) - self.sendLine("USER %s foo bar :%s" % (nickname, self.realname)) + if self.username is None: + self.username = nickname + self.sendLine("USER %s foo bar :%s" % (self.username, self.realname)) def setNick(self, nickname): self.nickname = nickname -- Avleen Vig Systems Administrator Personal: www.silverwraith.com "Wickedness is a myth invented by good people to account for the curious attractiveness of others." - Oscar Wilde
