twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorFDSet : API documentation

Implement me to be able to use IFileDescriptor type resources.

This assumes that your main-loop uses UNIX-style numeric file descriptors (or at least similarly opaque IDs returned from a .fileno() method)

Method	addReader	I add reader to the set of file descriptors to get read events for.
Method	addWriter	I add writer to the set of file descriptors to get write events for.
Method	removeReader	Removes an object previously added with `addReader`.
Method	removeWriter	Removes an object previously added with `addWriter`.
Method	removeAll	Remove all readers and writers.
Method	getReaders	Return the list of file descriptors currently monitored for input events by the reactor.
Method	getWriters	Return the list file descriptors currently monitored for output events by the reactor.

def addReader(reader): (source)

I add reader to the set of file descriptors to get read events for.

Parameters	reader	An `IReadDescriptor` provider that will be checked for read events until it is removed from the reactor with `removeReader`.
Returns	`None`.

def addWriter(writer): (source)

I add writer to the set of file descriptors to get write events for.

Parameters	writer	An `IWriteDescriptor` provider that will be checked for write events until it is removed from the reactor with `removeWriter`.
Returns	`None`.

def removeReader(reader): (source)

Removes an object previously added with addReader.

Returns None.

def removeWriter(writer): (source)

Removes an object previously added with addWriter.

Returns None.

def removeAll(): (source)

Remove all readers and writers.

Should not remove reactor internal reactor connections (like a waker).

Returns A list of IReadDescriptor and IWriteDescriptor providers which were removed.

def getReaders(): (source)

Return the list of file descriptors currently monitored for input events by the reactor.

Returns the list of file descriptors monitored for input events. (type: list of IReadDescriptor)

def getWriters(): (source)

Return the list file descriptors currently monitored for output events by the reactor.

Returns the list of file descriptors monitored for output events. (type: list of IWriteDescriptor)
