Class	ResponseFailed	`ResponseFailed` indicates that all of the response to a request was not received for some reason.
Class	WebClientContextFactory 0	A web context factory which doesn't work because the necessary SSL support is missing.
Class	WebClientContextFactory	A web context factory which ignores the hostname and port and does no certificate verification.
Class	FileBodyProducer	`FileBodyProducer` produces bytes from an input file object incrementally and writes them to a consumer.
Class	HTTPConnectionPool	A pool of persistent HTTP connections.
Class	Agent	`Agent` is a very basic HTTP client. It supports HTTP and HTTPS scheme URIs (but performs no certificate checking by default).

Class	_HTTP11ClientFactory	A factory for `HTTP11ClientProtocol`, used by `HTTPConnectionPool`.
Class	_RetryingHTTP11ClientProtocol	A wrapper for `HTTP11ClientProtocol` that automatically retries requests.
Class	_AgentBase	Base class offering common facilities for `Agent`-type classes.
Class	_FakeUrllib2Request	A fake `urllib2.Request` object for `cookielib` to work with.
Class	_FakeUrllib2Response	A fake `urllib2.Response` object for `cookielib` to work with.
Class	_GzipProtocol	A `Protocol` implementation which wraps another one, transparently decompressing received data.

def _makeGetterFactory(url, factoryFactory, *args, contextFactory=None, **kwargs): (source)

Create and connect an HTTP page getting factory.

Any additional positional or keyword arguments are used when calling factoryFactory.

Parameters	factoryFactory	Factory factory that is called with `url`, `args` and `kwargs` to produce the getter
	contextFactory	Context factory to use when creating a secure connection, defaulting to `None`
Returns	The factory created by `factoryFactory`

Parameters	url	An URL to parse. (type: `bytes`)
	defaultPort	An alternate value to use as the port if the URL does not include one. (type: `int` or `None`)
Returns	A four-tuple of the scheme, host, port, and path of the URL. All of these are `bytes` instances except for port, which is an `int`.
