twisted.web2.twcgi.FilteredScript : API documentation

I am a special version of a CGI script, that uses a specific executable (or, the first existing executable in a list of executables).

This is useful for interfacing with other scripting languages that adhere to the CGI standard (cf. PHPScript). My 'filters' attribute specifies what executables to try to run, and my 'filename' init parameter describes which script to pass to the first argument of that script.

Method	__init__	Initialize, with the name of a CGI script file.
Method	render	Do various things to conform to the CGI specification.

Inherited from CGIScript:

Method

http_POST

Undocumented

Inherited from LeafResource (via CGIScript):

Method

locateChild

Locate another object which can be adapted to IResource.

Inherited from RenderMixin (via CGIScript, LeafResource):

Method	allowedMethods
Method	checkPreconditions	Checks all preconditions imposed by this resource upon a request made
Method	renderHTTP	See `iweb.IResource.renderHTTP`.
Method	http_OPTIONS	Respond to a OPTIONS request.
Method	http_TRACE	Respond to a TRACE request.
Method	http_HEAD	Respond to a HEAD request.
Method	http_GET	Respond to a GET request.

def render(self, request): (source)

overrides twisted.web2.twcgi.CGIScript.render

Do various things to conform to the CGI specification.

I will set up the usual slew of environment variables, then spin off a process.
