Known implementations: twisted.internet.posixbase.PosixReactorBase

UNIX socket methods.

Method	connectUNIX	Connect a client protocol to a UNIX socket.
Method	listenUNIX	Listen on a UNIX socket.

def connectUNIX(address, factory, timeout=30, checkPID=0): (source)

Connect a client protocol to a UNIX socket.

Parameters	address	a path to a unix socket on the filesystem.
	factory	a `twisted.internet.protocol.ClientFactory` instance
	timeout	number of seconds to wait before assuming the connection has failed.
	checkPID	if True, check for a pid file to verify that a server is listening. If `address` is a Linux abstract namespace path, this must be `False`.
Returns	An object which provides `IConnector`.

def listenUNIX(address, factory, backlog=50, mode=438, wantPID=0): (source)

Listen on a UNIX socket.

Parameters	address	a path to a unix socket on the filesystem.
	factory	a `twisted.internet.protocol.Factory` instance.
	backlog	number of connections to allow in backlog.
	mode	The mode (not umask) to set on the unix socket. See platform specific documentation for information about how this might affect connection attempts. (type: `int`)
	wantPID	if True, create a pidfile for the socket. If `address` is a Linux abstract namespace path, this must be `False`.
Returns	An object which provides `IListeningPort`.
