def do(option): (source)

Indicate a desire for the peer to begin performing the given option.

Returns a Deferred that fires with True when the peer begins performing the option, or False when the peer refuses to perform it. If the peer is already performing the given option, the Deferred will fail with AlreadyEnabled. If a negotiation regarding this option is already in progress, the Deferred will fail with AlreadyNegotiating.

Note: It is currently possible that this Deferred will never fire, if the peer never responds, or if the peer believes the option to already be enabled.

def dont(option): (source)

Indicate a desire for the peer to cease performing the given option.

Returns a Deferred that fires with True when the peer ceases performing the option. If the peer is not performing the given option, the Deferred will fail with AlreadyDisabled. If negotiation regarding this option is already in progress, the Deferred will fail with AlreadyNegotiating.

Note: It is currently possible that this Deferred will never fire, if the peer never responds, or if the peer believes the option to already be disabled.

def will(option): (source)

Indicate our willingness to begin performing this option locally.

Returns a Deferred that fires with True when the peer agrees to allow us to begin performing this option, or False if the peer refuses to allow us to begin performing it. If the option is already enabled locally, the Deferred will fail with AlreadyEnabled. If negotiation regarding this option is already in progress, the Deferred will fail with AlreadyNegotiating.

Note: It is currently possible that this Deferred will never fire, if the peer never responds, or if the peer believes the option to already be enabled.

def wont(option): (source)

Indicate that we will stop performing the given option.

Returns a Deferred that fires with True when the peer acknowledges we have stopped performing this option. If the option is already disabled locally, the Deferred will fail with AlreadyDisabled. If negotiation regarding this option is already in progress, the Deferred will fail with AlreadyNegotiating.

Note: It is currently possible that this Deferred will never fire, if the peer never responds, or if the peer believes the option to already be disabled.

def requestNegotiation(about, bytes): (source)
