twisted.pair.tuntap.TuntapPort(abstract.FileDescriptor) class documentation

Part of twisted.pair.tuntap View Source (View In Hierarchy)

Implements interfaces: twisted.internet.interfaces.IListeningPort

A Port that reads and writes packets from/to a TUN/TAP-device.

Method __init__
Method __repr__ Undocumented
Method startListening Create and bind my socket, and begin listening on it.
Method fileno File Descriptor number for select().
Method doRead Called when my socket is ready for reading.
Method write Write the given data as a single datagram.
Method writeSequence Write a datagram constructed from a list of bytes.
Method stopListening Stop accepting connections on this port.
Method loseConnection Close this tunnel. Use TuntapPort.stopListening instead.
Method connectionLost Cleans up my socket.
Method logPrefix Returns the name of my class, to prefix log entries with.
Method getHost Get the local address of this TuntapPort.
Method _openTunnel Open the named tunnel using the given mode.
Method _bindSocket Open the tunnel.

Inherited from _LogOwner (via FileDescriptor):

Method _getLogPrefix Determine the log prefix to use for messages related to applicationObject, which may or may not be an interfaces.ILoggingContext provider.

def __init__(self, interface, proto, maxPacketSize=8192, reactor=None, system=None): (source)
overrides twisted.internet.abstract.FileDescriptor.__init__
ParametersreactorAn IReactorFDSet provider which this descriptor will use to get readable and writeable event notifications. If no value is given, the global reactor will be used.
def __repr__(self): (source)
Undocumented
def startListening(self): (source)
from twisted.internet.interfaces.IListeningPort

Create and bind my socket, and begin listening on it.

This must be called after creating a server to begin listening on the specified tunnel.

def _openTunnel(self, name, mode): (source)

Open the named tunnel using the given mode.

ParametersnameThe name of the tunnel to open. (type: bytes)
modeFlags from TunnelFlags with exactly one of TunnelFlags.IFF_TUN or TunnelFlags.IFF_TAP set.
ReturnsA _TunnelDescription representing the newly opened tunnel.
def _bindSocket(self): (source)

Open the tunnel.

def fileno(self): (source)
from twisted.internet.interfaces.IFileDescriptor
overrides twisted.internet.abstract.FileDescriptor.fileno

File Descriptor number for select().

This method must be overridden or assigned in subclasses to indicate a valid file descriptor for the operating system.

def doRead(self): (source)
from twisted.internet.interfaces.IReadDescriptor
overrides twisted.internet.abstract.FileDescriptor.doRead

Called when my socket is ready for reading.

def write(self, datagram): (source)
from twisted.internet.interfaces.IConsumer
overrides twisted.internet.abstract.FileDescriptor.write

Write the given data as a single datagram.

ParametersdatagramThe data that will make up the complete datagram to be written. (type: bytes)
def writeSequence(self, seq): (source)
from twisted.internet.interfaces.ITransport
overrides twisted.internet.abstract.FileDescriptor.writeSequence

Write a datagram constructed from a list of bytes.

ParametersdatagramThe data that will make up the complete datagram to be written.
def stopListening(self): (source)
from twisted.internet.interfaces.IListeningPort

Stop accepting connections on this port.

This will shut down my socket and call self.connectionLost().

ReturnsA Deferred that fires when this port has stopped.
def loseConnection(self): (source)
from twisted.internet.interfaces.ITransport
overrides twisted.internet.abstract.FileDescriptor.loseConnection

Close this tunnel. Use TuntapPort.stopListening instead.

def connectionLost(self, reason=None): (source)
from twisted.internet.interfaces.IFileDescriptor
overrides twisted.internet.abstract.FileDescriptor.connectionLost

Cleans up my socket.

ParametersreasonIgnored. Do not use this.
def logPrefix(self): (source)
from twisted.internet.interfaces.ILoggingContext
overrides twisted.internet.abstract._LogOwner.logPrefix

Returns the name of my class, to prefix log entries with.

def getHost(self): (source)
from twisted.internet.interfaces.IListeningPort

Get the local address of this TuntapPort.

ReturnsA TunnelAddress which describes the tunnel device to which this object is bound. (type: TunnelAddress)
