[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. ______ __ __ _____ _ _ | ____ | \_/ |_____] |_____| |_____| |_____ | | | | @ 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] Reconnecting PB Client
by Don Smith Sept. 12, 2007

Sept. 12, 2007

Does anyone have some example code for building a reconnecting PB client? This is what I have now: from twisted.spread import pb from twisted.internet import reactor from twisted.python import util events = pb.PBClientFactory() reactor.connectTCP("localhost", 8789, events) queue = events.getRootObject()

[Twisted-Python] Win32 IOCPReactor?
by Trent Nelson Sept. 5, 2007

Sept. 5, 2007

I'm new to Twisted. Perusing the documentation, I came across IOCPReactor. It's marked as 'extremely experimental', and it appears it only provides support for TCP events. It seems the last check in to anything IOCPReactor-related was back in 2005. Is it dead? Is anyone using it? Is anyone planning to pick development back up? Were there specific issues with IOCP that impeded development, or just a general lack of people with time, inclination, or Win32-fu? Assuming the IOCPReactor's not feasible for high load production deployment, can anyone comment on how the default select()-based reactor for Win32 fares under high load? Trent.

[Twisted-Python] Media Resource Control Protocol (MRCP)
by Ivan Uemlianin Sept. 4, 2007

Sept. 4, 2007

Dear All I am interested in writing an MRCP (Media Resource Control Protocol [1]) server. In particular I want to write an MRCP speech recognition resource server as part of my trefnydd [2] project. I am posting here to ask for advice about the network programming part. I shall also be writing an MRCP client (if only to test the server). All the code will be GPL'd. As far as I understand it, an overview of the networking would go like this: An MRCP session between client and server is initiated using the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). Client and server negotiate using SIP messages containing SDP message bodies to define the participants and the resources required in the session. After session initiation, two channels are launched: a media channel using RTP to carry binary audio (i.e., speech) data, and a control channel using TCP (control channel messages are text-based and in MRCP format). It seems to me that both client and server software would have to cope with SIP, SDP, RTP, MRCP (message format) and plain old TCP (for the SIP/SDP and MRCP control channel messages). Here are my questions: - Does anyone know of a FOSS project to write an MRCP server? preferably in python. I know of mrcp4j [3]. - My first plan would be to make the MRCP client/server a subclass of an SIP client/server, as SIP is used to set up (and tear down) the session. Does that sound sensible? - Can twisted.protocols.sip be used to write a SIP server? Would it give me everything I need, or would I also need something like pjsip [4] or jain-sip [5] for the low-level stuff? - Have I missed anything? Any advice would be gratefully received. I'll report back with progress. Best wishes Ivan [1] MRCP: http://www.llaisdy.com/static/tech/mrcp/ [2] trefnydd: http://www.llaisdy.com/static/trefnydd/ [3] mrcp4j: "MRCP4J provides a Java API that encapsulates the MRCPv2 protocol and can be used to implement MRCPv2 clients and/or servers." http://mrcp4j.sourceforge.net/ [4] pjsip: http://www.pjsip.org/ [5] jain-sip: https://jain-sip.dev.java.net/

[Twisted-Python] Testing with trial, adbapi questions
by Brendon Colby July 24, 2007

July 24, 2007

Greetings, I've begun moving an application I wrote from asynchat to twisted. I've got basic functionality, I've converted my DB stuff to adbapi and have begun writing unit tests. I have a few questions that I haven't been able to get answered through the API docs, twisted.words protocol code, mailing list posts etc. I'd be very grateful for some assistance! 1. Right now I'm defining my dbPool in my factory init, and running a method to load some data from the DB. I've copied the IRC BasicServerFunctionalityTestCase and modified it for my use: class BasicServerFunctionalityTestCase(unittest.TestCase): def setUp(self): self.f = StringIOWithoutClosing() self.t = FileWrapperThatWorks(self.f) # I need this to return an IPv4Address! self.p = sserverd.SServerProtocol() self.p.factory = sserverd.SServerFactory(self.p) self.p.makeConnection(self.t) self.p.factory.dbPool.start() def tearDown(self): self.p.factory.dbPool.close() def check(self, s): self.assertEquals(self.f.getvalue(), s) def testSendDeveloperID(self): self.p.lineReceived('{%s:"PG"}\0' % sserverson.base10toN(104)) self.check("test\0") I've gotten past the database threads hanging open by running start() and close() manually. Now, my database callbacks that load necessary data appear to be getting called AFTER my test runs. I know they're getting called, but when the above test runs, the required data structure is empty. What am I missing here? 2. I'm having a bit of trouble wrapping my head around adbapi. Prior to it, one thing I would do is gather data and return a row, as in, the method "developerExists()" would check the DB and return row[0][0] or something (a bool). Now it seems as though I have to preload this data and check against that. Can I replicate this behavior with adbapi? Is there a better way than having to preload ALL my data up front? How can I get any data from the DB like this: data = getSomethingFromDB() I'm suspicious that I need to adopt a new paradigm here, but am having difficulty seeing past the old way of doing things! 3. I have some methods (as I pointed out in #1) that load data. With adbapi, it appears that I have to do this: def _loadDevelopers(self,results): for result in results: developerID = result[2] ... self.addDeveloper(Developer(authHost,authUrl,developerID,self,rc4key, postHost,postUrl)) def loadDevelopers(self): self.dbPool.runQuery("select * from developers where active=1").addCallback( self._loadDevelopers).addErrback(printError) # Before, I would just load my data here! Is this correct? i.e. a DB method that gets called, each having a corresponding callback method that does the real work? (This seems sort of a pain to me...) I feel as though I'm close to "getting it" (twisted in general, adbapi) but feel that I have yet to connect some key pieces of information. 4. I was digging through the adbapi code, and it appears that the only type of result set I can get is a tuple (because only cursors are used...). Is there a way I can get a dictionary returned, keys are column names? i.e. a MySqlDB.fetch_row(how=1). I'm just not seeing how I can do this with adbapi or, rather, how I can pass through to the MySqlDB module to get this type of result set. 5. I've always run my application using DJB's daemontools (http://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html). Is there an incredibly compelling reason to switch to using twistd? It seems to have some pretty neat features, but I'm just not 100% sure I want to give up daemontools yet. Thanks! Brendon Colby

[Twisted-Python] How to receive a big stream data?
by steven wang July 20, 2007

July 20, 2007

Dear all, I'm using the Twisted to write a socket server. I has a problem in the socket server. I could not receive a big size data when the data size is bigger then the connection buffersize. The protocol description: First, Client send data head to Server. Head Format: ABC,123456,XXX,XXX,XXX^ Second, Client send big data to Server, the big data is stream data. After Server received the big data and then save it to database. My problem source code : ================================================================================================ class MyProtocol(protocol.Protocol): is_big_data = False big_data = '' big_data_size = 0 def connectionMade(self): self.big_data = '' self.big_data_size = 0 self.is_big_data = False pass def dataReceived(self, data): if check_head_ok(data): # To receive the big size data if self.is_big_data: return # The big data will overflow the Twisted receive buffer size, so loop to receive data if is_big_size_data: big_data += data if big_data_size == len(big_data): # To save data to database .... pass def connectionLost(self, reason): self.big_data = '' self.big_data_size = 0 self.is_big_data = False pass def check_head_ok(self, head): if data.startswith('ABC'): values = data.split(',') self.big_data_size = int(values[1]) self.is_big_data = self.big_data_size > 0 return True else: return False ================================================================================================ If you know it, Please tell me. Thank you very much! :) Beat Regards, Steven. Wang

[Twisted-Python] Flash AMF and Twisted
by Arnar Birgisson July 16, 2007

July 16, 2007

Hi all, Re. this message: http://twistedmatrix.com/pipermail/twisted-python/2007-May/015373.html Has any work been done here? I'm facing a project that requires two-way communication between a Flex/Apollo app and a Twisted server. In my initial tests I used http and comet-like techniques but I'm not sure they are the most efficient way. I'm willing to help with the project - I've already dabbled a little in the DjangoAMF stuff. Arnar

[Twisted-Python] profiling twisted
by Markus Schiltknecht July 4, 2007

July 4, 2007

Hi, first of all, thank you very much for this great peace of software, I'm using twisted for many different projects and really enjoy it's clean and simple design. Now, I'm wondering if there's a profiling tool, which can quickly tell me what events are blocking my server. I have even deferred the file I/O to separate threads, as I've suspected them to make the server behave poorly when under load. But there still seems to be something blocking... What do you use to find the callbacks which block (for too long)? Regards Markus
