twisted.internet.protocol.ConsumerToProtocolAdapter : API documentation

Method	dataReceived	Called whenever data is received.
Method	connectionLost	Called when the connection is shut down.
Method	makeConnection	Make a connection to a transport and a server.
Method	connectionMade	Called when a connection is made.

Inherited from Adapter:

Class Variable	temporaryAdapter	If this is True, the adapter will not be persisted on the Componentized.
Class Variable	multiComponent	If this adapter is persistent, should it be automatically registered for all appropriate interfaces.
Method	__init__	Set my 'original' attribute to be the object I am adapting.
Method	__conform__	I forward __conform__ to self.original if it has it, otherwise I simply return None.
Method	isuper	Forward isuper to self.original

def dataReceived(self, data): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IProtocol

Called whenever data is received.

Use this method to translate to a higher-level message. Usually, some callback will be made upon the receipt of each complete protocol message.

Parameters data a string of indeterminate length. Please keep in mind that you will probably need to buffer some data, as partial (or multiple) protocol messages may be received! I recommend that unit tests for protocols call through to this method with differing chunk sizes, down to one byte at a time.

def connectionLost(self, reason): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IProtocol

Called when the connection is shut down.

Clear any circular references here, and any external references to this Protocol. The connection has been closed. The reason Failure wraps a twisted.internet.error.ConnectionDone or twisted.internet.error.ConnectionLost instance (or a subclass of one of those).

def makeConnection(self, transport): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IProtocol

Make a connection to a transport and a server.

def connectionMade(self): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IProtocol

Called when a connection is made.

This may be considered the initializer of the protocol, because it is called when the connection is completed. For clients, this is called once the connection to the server has been established; for servers, this is called after an accept() call stops blocking and a socket has been received. If you need to send any greeting or initial message, do it here.
