[Twisted-Python] reactor.run() do not return after reactor.stop()
by Stanislav Yudin Oct. 10, 2009

Oct. 10, 2009

Hi everyone, I am having a problem with current twisted trunk (rev 27375). I am trying to implement simple ssh client with conch.ssh but right now my implementation works wrong way. I've made a wrapper class for my client factory, to separate host/creds information and command I want to execute. So in execute method of the wrapper I am calling reactor.run() - (that blocks execute method) and in one of callbacks for success/error calling reactor.stop(). So the problem is that the first call to … [View More]

[Twisted-Python] Disturbing aspect of zope.interface
by Brian Granger Oct. 9, 2009

Oct. 9, 2009

Hi, I know this is not the zope list, but I am encountering this in a twisted project, so I wanted to get some ideas here first. I am finding that zope.interface is like an infectious disease. Here is a simple example: In [35]: import zope.interface as zi In [37]: class A(object): ....: pass In [38]: class IB(zi.Interface): ....: pass In [39]: hasattr(A, '__provides__') Out[39]: False In [41]: # Inheriting from A gives A additional methods In [42]: class B(A): .… [View More]

[Twisted-Python] IMAP IDLE client support
by Adam MacBeth Oct. 8, 2009

Oct. 8, 2009

It doesn't appear that Twisted's IMAP client (twisted.mail.imap.IMAP4Client) supports the IDLE command. Are there any plans for this or does anyone have any thoughts on the complexity of implementing it? Thanks, Adam

[Twisted-Python] PB vs JMS
by jacopo.pecci＠gmail.com Oct. 8, 2009

Oct. 8, 2009

I looked at PB for an architecture with one client distributing some processing to several servers. Now I came across JMS and I have seen that using ActiveMQ with the Stomp protocol there would be a good support for Python. Surprising I couldn't find any article comparing the two technologies. I wonder if they target different problems (it doesn't look to me). Is anyone able to sketch advantages of one solution against the other? Thanks, Jacopo

Re: [Twisted-Python] Problem with XMLRPC resource wrapped with guard basic auth
by asset Oct. 7, 2009

Oct. 7, 2009

I was indeed being tricked. I actually tested soap with a real client, but with xmlrpc i was using the browser. I was expecting to see the same error message, and instead got a new one that was presented by the modifications I pulled out of the trunk to support the issue in #4014. I was expecting to see the older error message and it was replaced. A quick test via, >>> import xmlrpclib >>> server = xmlrpclib.Server('http://user:password@localhost:9999/rpc2') >>&… [View More]gt; server.quote() Showed it indeed worked like it should. Swapped it to use SSL and now I'm all set. Thank you for the clarification. Next time I'll test more before posting to the list. ;) TWKiel ---------------------------------------- From: exarkun(a)twistedmatrix.com Sent: Tuesday, October 06, 2009 6:43 PM To: asset(a)impactdamage.com, "Twisted general discussion" <twisted-python(a)twistedmatrix.com> Subject: Re: [Twisted-Python] Problem with XMLRPC resource wrapped with guard basic auth On 12:00 am, asset(a)impactdamage.com wrote: >Using the current trunk r27366 (which is after #4014 fixed a related >issue), I am having trouble with an implementation of web.guard wrapped >XMLRPC.

I think you're being tricked by the confusing way in which this exception is displayed and by a slight implementation difference (and indeed externally visible behavioral difference) between XMLRPC and SOAPPublisher. SOAPPublisher defines "render" and no other render methods. So it will accept any request method and treat it the same way. It will never raise UnsupportedMethod. XMLRPC, on the other hand, defines "render_POST" and no other render methods, so it will only accept POST requests. For any other request, it will raise UnsupportedMethod and create that exception with a tuple of which methods it does allow. ('POST',) in this case. The exception I see when I approach this server at /rpc2 with my web browser (which is the only thing I've tried, because it's too much work to put together a real xml-rpc client that supports basic auth) is just what I'd expect. The browser issues a GET, the XMLRPC resource rejects this, indicating it only accepts POSTs. It may be worth improving the way UnsupportedMethod exceptions are stringified to make it more clear what's going on. Or, if this doesn't actually explain your problem, feel free to point that out and provide more details about how the client you're using behaves. Jean-Paul [View Less]

[Twisted-Python] using perspective broker to talk to a subprocess?
by Ryan Burns Oct. 7, 2009

Oct. 7, 2009

Hi All, I'm writing a twisted application where I'd like to run and communicate with subprocesses that also happen to be twisted apps. I'm wondering if I can somehow combine twisted's process and perspective broker code so that I can launch a twisted server in a subprocess and communicate with it via the perspective broker using the subprocess's stdin/stdout. Ideally, it would be great if this could scale, say up to 200 subprocesses. Disregarding reasons of why I would want to do … [View More]

[Twisted-Python] Problem with XMLRPC resource wrapped with guard basic auth
by asset Oct. 7, 2009

Oct. 7, 2009

Using the current trunk r27366 (which is after #4014 fixed a related issue), I am having trouble with an implementation of web.guard wrapped XMLRPC. This is a new test implementation to expose both a soap and xmlrpc interface. SOAP works, but xmlrpc throws UnsupportedMethod POST. Here is my test code, can anybody tell me if im doing something wrong? Again, /soap works, but /rpc2 freaks on the POST method being unavailable. ###### test-script.py from zope.interface import implements … [View More]

[Twisted-Python] Example of a long-polling asynchronous web servic?

Oct. 7, 2009

Hey guys I'm trying to implement some web-services over JSON-RPC, and one of the methods needs to use server-push. I will try and explain my problem as well as I can. I have a client, which is an iPhone, natively running a JSON-RPC( or XML-RPC ) client implementation. I need to do something like this from the iPhone service = ServerProxy("http://mydomain.com/webservice") init_data = service.subscribe_to_updates() ... ... ... some_result = service.some_regular_function(params) How can I … [View More]

[Twisted-Python] Structural issues in Lore XHTML documents
by Kevin Horn Oct. 6, 2009

Oct. 6, 2009

I've been looking over the xhtml documents used to generate the twisted documentation, and I've noticed a number of issues: - some docs do not have a DOCTYPE declaration, I think they should all have one - of those documents that do have DOCTYPEs, some are using xhmtl-strict, and some are using xhtml-transitional, which is preferred? I think they should all use the same one - some of the docs are lacking an xml namespace attribute in their root <html> element...I think they should … [View More]
