t.w.p.ReverseProxyRequest(Request) : class documentation

Part of twisted.web.proxy View Source View In Hierarchy

Used by ReverseProxy to implement a simple reverse proxy.
Instance Variable proxyClientFactoryClass a proxy client factory class, used to create new connections. (type: ClientFactory)
Instance Variable reactor the reactor used to create connections. (type: object providing twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorTCP)
Method __init__
Method process Handle this request by connecting to the proxied server and forwarding it there, then forwarding the response back as the response to this request.

Inherited from Request:

Instance Variable method The HTTP method that was used.
Instance Variable uri The full URI that was requested (includes arguments).
Instance Variable path The path only (arguments not included).
Instance Variable args All of the arguments, including URL and POST arguments. (type: A mapping of strings (the argument names) to lists of values. i.e., ?foo=bar&foo=baz&quux=spam results in {'foo': ['bar', 'baz'], 'quux': ['spam']}.)
Instance Variable requestHeaders All received HTTP request headers. (type: http_headers.Headers)
Instance Variable received_headers Backwards-compatibility access to requestHeaders. Use requestHeaders instead. received_headers behaves mostly like a dict and does not provide access to all header values.
Instance Variable responseHeaders All HTTP response headers to be sent. (type: http_headers.Headers)
Instance Variable headers Backwards-compatibility access to responseHeaders. Use responseHeaders instead. headers behaves mostly like a dict and does not provide access to all header values nor does it allow multiple values for one header to be set.
Instance Variable notifications A list of Deferreds which are waiting for notification that the response to this request has been finished (successfully or with an error). Don't use this attribute directly, instead use the Request.notifyFinish method.
Method __setattr__ Support assignment of dict instances to received_headers for backwards-compatibility.
Method noLongerQueued Notify the object that it is no longer queued.
Method gotLength Called when HTTP channel got length of content in this request.
Method parseCookies Parse cookie headers.
Method handleContentChunk Write a chunk of data.
Method requestReceived Called by channel when all data has been received.
Method __repr__ Undocumented
Method registerProducer Register a producer.
Method unregisterProducer Unregister the producer.
Method getHeader Get an HTTP request header.
Method getCookie Get a cookie that was sent from the network.
Method notifyFinish Notify when the response to this request has finished.
Method finish Indicate that all response data has been written to this Request.
Method write Write some data as a result of an HTTP request. The first time this is called, it writes out response data.
Method addCookie Set an outgoing HTTP cookie.
Method setResponseCode Set the HTTP response code.
Method setHeader Set an HTTP response header. Overrides any previously set values for this header.
Method redirect Utility function that does a redirect.
Method setLastModified Set the Last-Modified time for the response to this request.
Method setETag Set an entity tag for the outgoing response.
Method getAllHeaders Return dictionary mapping the names of all received headers to the last value received for each.
Method getRequestHostname Get the hostname that the user passed in to the request.
Method getHost Get my originally requesting transport's host.
Method setHost Change the host and port the request thinks it's using.
Method getClientIP Return the IP address of the client who submitted this request.
Method isSecure Return True if this request is using a secure transport.
Method getUser Return the HTTP user sent with this request, if any.
Method getPassword Return the HTTP password sent with this request, if any.
Method getClient Undocumented
Method connectionLost There is no longer a connection for this request to respond over. Clean up anything which can't be useful anymore.
Instance Variable _disconnected A flag which is False until the connection over which this request was received is closed and which is True after that. (type: bool)
Method _cleanup Called when have finished responding and are no longer queued.
Method _sendError Undocumented
Method _authorize Undocumented
