Class StringTransport I am a StringIO wrapper that conforms for the transport API. I support
Class HTTPClient A client for HTTP 1.0.
Class Request A HTTP request.
Class PotentialDataLoss PotentialDataLoss may be raised by a transfer encoding decoder's
Class HTTPChannel A receiver for HTTP requests.
Class HTTPFactory Factory for HTTP server.
Function _resetLogDateTime Undocumented
Function _logDateTimeStart Undocumented
Function _logDateTimeStop Undocumented
Class _DataLoss _DataLoss indicates that not all of a message body was received. This
Class _IdentityTransferDecoder Protocol for accumulating bytes up to a specified length. This handles the
Class _ChunkedTransferDecoder Protocol for decoding chunked Transfer-Encoding, as defined by RFC 2616,
def urlparse(url): (source)
Parse an URL into six components.

This is similar to urlparse.urlparse, but rejects unicode input and always produces str output.

Parametersurl (type: str )
ReturnsThe scheme, net location, path, params, query string, and fragment of the URL. (type: six-tuple of str )
RaisesTypeErrorThe given url was a unicode string instead of a str.
def parse_qs(qs, keep_blank_values=0, strict_parsing=0, unquote=unquote): (source)
like cgi.parse_qs, only with custom unquote function
def datetimeToString(msSinceEpoch=None): (source)
Convert seconds since epoch to HTTP datetime string.
def datetimeToLogString(msSinceEpoch=None): (source)
Convert seconds since epoch to log datetime string.
def _resetLogDateTime(): (source)
Undocumented
def _logDateTimeStart(): (source)
Undocumented
def _logDateTimeStop(): (source)
Undocumented
def timegm(year, month, day, hour, minute, second): (source)
Convert time tuple in GMT to seconds since epoch, GMT
def stringToDatetime(dateString): (source)
Convert an HTTP date string (one of three formats) to seconds since epoch.
def toChunk(data): (source)
Convert string to a chunk.
Returnsa tuple of strings representing the chunked encoding of data
def fromChunk(data): (source)
Convert chunk to string.
Returnstuple (result, remaining), may raise ValueError.
def parseContentRange(header): (source)
Parse a content-range header into (start, end, realLength).

realLength might be None if real length is not known ('*').
