t.i.i.IUDPTransport(Interface) : interface documentation

Part of twisted.internet.interfaces View Source View In Hierarchy

Known implementations: twisted.internet.iocpreactor.udp.Port, twisted.internet.udp.Port

Transport for UDP DatagramProtocols.

Method	write	Write packet to given address.
Method	connect	Connect the transport to an address.
Method	getHost	Returns `IPv4Address`.
Method	stopListening	Stop listening on this port.

def write(packet, addr=None): (source)

Write packet to given address.

Parameters	addr	a tuple of (ip, port). For connected transports must be the address the transport is connected to, or None. In non-connected mode this is mandatory.
Raises	twisted.internet.error.MessageLengthError	`packet` was too long.

def connect(host, port): (source)

Connect the transport to an address.

This changes it to connected mode. Datagrams can only be sent to this address, and will only be received from this address. In addition the protocol's connectionRefused method might get called if destination is not receiving datagrams.

Parameters	host	an IP address, not a domain name ('127.0.0.1', not 'localhost')
	port	port to connect to.

def getHost(): (source)

Returns IPv4Address.

def stopListening(): (source)

Stop listening on this port.

If it does not complete immediately, will return Deferred that fires upon completion.
