twisted.web.xmlrpc.Proxy : API documentation

A Proxy for making remote XML-RPC calls.

Pass the URL of the remote XML-RPC server to the constructor.

Use proxy.callRemote('foobar', *args) to call remote method 'foobar' with *args.

Instance Variables	user	The username with which to authenticate with the server when making calls. If specified, overrides any username information embedded in `url`. If not specified, a value may be taken from `url` if present. (type: `str` or `NoneType` )
	password	The password with which to authenticate with the server when making calls. If specified, overrides any password information embedded in `url`. If not specified, a value may be taken from `url` if present. (type: `str` or `NoneType` )
	allowNone	allow the use of None values in parameters. It's passed to the underlying xmlrpclib implementation. Default to False. (type: `bool` or `NoneType` )
	useDateTime	Accept datetime values as datetime.datetime objects. also passed to the underlying xmlrpclib implementation. Default to False. Requires Python >= 2.5. (type: `bool` )
	queryFactory	object returning a factory for XML-RPC protocol. Mainly useful for tests.

def __init__(self, url, user=None, password=None, allowNone=False, useDateTime=False): (source)

Parameters url The URL to which to post method calls. Calls will be made over SSL if the scheme is HTTPS. If netloc contains username or password information, these will be used to authenticate, as long as the user and password arguments are not specified. (type: str )

def callRemote(self, method, *args): (source)

Call remote XML-RPC method with given arguments.

Returns

a defer.Deferred that will fire with the method response, or a failure if the method failed. Generally, the failure type will be Fault, but you can also have an IndexError on some buggy servers giving empty responses.

If the deferred is cancelled before the request completes, the connection is closed and the deferred will fire with a defer.CancelledError.

Method	__init__	No summary
Method	__setattr__	Undocumented
Method	callRemote	Call remote XML-RPC `method` with given arguments.
