Re: [Twisted-Python] Accessing the request object from a different thread

All of the accesses to the request object are read operations. If those read operations occur on data that does not get messed with by the main thread, then this should be thread-safe code. However, it seems that the official word is "do not use request objects from other threads." Maybe I am mistaken. In any case, is there a safe way to get at request headers and parameter values outside of the reactor loop.

The rule is not to call any twisted functions IIRC. You can do this safely: args_copy = dict(request.args) hdr_copy = dict(request.requestHeaders.getAllRawHeaders()) deferToThread(func, args_copy, hdr_copy)
