[Twisted-Python] Boston Twisted Sprint: Last-Minute December Edition
by Tenth Dec. 10, 2011

Dec. 10, 2011

The good news is that it's December, and we're hosting another Boston Twisted Sprint! The bad news is that it's going to be this Saturday, December 10th, and I'm only just announcing it on the list now, due to last minute venue and schedule change shenanigans. This will be the last sprint that Exarkun can join us for in Boston, though, so it's also your last chance to visit and bother him to review your tickets in person! As with the last few sprints, we'll be at the Smarterer.com offices in … [View More]

Re: [Twisted-Python] Log output formatting (was Re: logging question)
by Tom Sheffler Dec. 5, 2011

Dec. 5, 2011

I am happy with the information I get out of the logging system and the formatting of errors and tracebacks. We've recently come across two things that could be handled nicer however. 1) we use multiple logfiles. one for *all* messages, and another for *special* messages. It would be nice if the concept of multiple logfiles and the routing of messages to files was part of the system. 2) the above, coupled with the use of twisd and starting the logfiles was a little weird. Our main logfile … [View More]

[Twisted-Python] Moving Twisted off Trac and SVN to somewhere nicer
by Laurens Van Houtven Dec. 5, 2011

Dec. 5, 2011

Hi, As some of you may already know (either through a backchannel or because you talked to me at Europython), there has been some talk about moving Twisted way from Trac+SVN to somewhere that isn't Trac+SVN. A lot of the devs do like SVN. My guess is that that's mainly because they don't actually use SVN, they use Combinator, or something. On the other hand, I do think that Trac is pretty universally loathed, and it would be a good idea to get away from it. There's a few existing hosting … [View More]

Re: [Twisted-Python] Telnet negotiation with Twisted
by Lee Orsino Dec. 4, 2011

Dec. 4, 2011

Hi Patrick! Thanks for the suggestion. After I call self.will(LINEMODE), I get Failure: twisted.conch.telnet.OptionRefused: twisted.conch.telnet.OptionRefused: '"' So I know at least something is happening. I guess this just became a Telnet question instead of a twisted question. But I still don't understand how enableRemote and requestNegotiation are supposed to be used with this. Anyway, this happens in PuTTY as well as the Windows telnet client. Below is the code, if it helps, as simple as … [View More]

[Twisted-Python] logging question
by Jeffrey Ollie Dec. 2, 2011

Dec. 2, 2011

I'm using twisted.python.log to do some logging in an application. It's formatting the output like "<date> [-] <mymessage>". I've seen in some of my other applications that the contents of "[-]" can change depending on how the code is reached. Is there a way that I can customize this in my application? I'd like to change the contents to reflect the particular object that is generating the log message. -- Jeff Ollie

[Twisted-Python] Telnet negotiation with Twisted
by Lee Orsino Dec. 1, 2011

Dec. 1, 2011

Hi all, I'm writing a twisted Telnet server and I want a client to be able to connect to it through some other interface, such as PuTTY. I can make the connection fine. But one of my requirements is to be able to tell the client to switch back and forth between buffered and unbuffered input modes depending on the state of the server. (Sometimes, the client should enter text, then hit enter to send. Other times, the client should send data character-by-character). I'm new at this, and maybe I'… [View More]

Sure, just because it's possible doesn't mean we should go and change all existing code.

[Twisted-Python] Using decorator syntax in Twisted
by Itamar Turner-Trauring Dec. 1, 2011

Dec. 1, 2011

Until now we haven't AFAIK used decorator syntax, but I think it's time we start to. In places where we were already using decorators without the special syntax, that is. Consider: def foo(cls, arg): # lalalal foo = classmethod(foo) One has to type "foo" three times (a potential source of error), and the special semantics of the function are known to the reader only *after* reading the function. On the other hand: @classmethod def foo(cls, arg): # lalalal … [View More]

WHAT A GREAT IDEA! Ring anytime 1-404-549-4731 We provide a concept that will allow anyone with sufficient work experience to obtain a fully verifiable University Degree. Bachelors, Masters or even a Doctorate. Think of it, within four to six weeks, you too could be a college graduate. Many people share the same frustration, they are doing the work of the person that has the degree and the person that has the degree is getting all the money. Don't you think that it is time you were paid fair … [View More]

[Twisted-Python] Rts/Cts Serial port flow control in twisted
by dsturmfels＠gmail.com Nov. 30, 2011

Nov. 30, 2011

Hi, Has anyone had much experience with serial flow control in twisted? I've been using a twisted serial port in my gtk+ software for quite a while now, and I can get xonxoff flow control to work, but for some reason, rtscts flow control isn't working (or I may be using it wrong). I'm connecting the software, via a usb-serial cable, to a Datalogic barcode scanner cradle. I've been able to replicate this problem with pyserial as well. Without flow control on, I can for example, send a … [View More]
