twisted.web.client.HTTPPageGetter : API documentation

Known subclasses: twisted.web.client.HTTPPageDownloader

Gets a resource via HTTP, then quits.

Typically used with HTTPClientFactory. Note that this class does not, by itself, do anything with the response. If you want to download a resource into a file, use HTTPPageDownloader instead.

Method	connectionMade	Called when a connection is made.
Method	handleHeader	Called every time a header is received. Stores the header information as key-value pairs in the `headers` attribute.
Method	handleStatus	Handle the HTTP status line.
Method	handleEndHeaders	Called when all headers have been received.
Method	handleStatus_200	Undocumented
Method	handleStatusDefault	Undocumented
Method	handleStatus_301	Undocumented
Method	handleStatus_302	Undocumented
Method	handleStatus_303	Undocumented
Method	connectionLost	When the connection used to issue the HTTP request is closed, notify the factory if we have not already, so it can produce a result.
Method	handleResponse	Undocumented
Method	timeout	Undocumented
Instance Variable	_completelyDone	A boolean indicating whether any further requests are necessary after this one completes in order to provide a result to `self.factory.deferred`. If it is `False`, then a redirect is going to be followed. Otherwise, this protocol's connection is the last one before firing the result Deferred. This is used to make sure the result Deferred is only fired after the connection is cleaned up.

A boolean indicating whether any further requests are necessary after this one completes in order to provide a result to self.factory.deferred. If it is False, then a redirect is going to be followed. Otherwise, this protocol's connection is the last one before firing the result Deferred. This is used to make sure the result Deferred is only fired after the connection is cleaned up.

def connectionMade(self): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IProtocol

overrides twisted.web.http.HTTPClient.connectionMade

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.

def handleHeader(self, key, value): (source)

overrides twisted.web.http.HTTPClient.handleHeader

Called every time a header is received. Stores the header information as key-value pairs in the headers attribute.

Parameters	key	An HTTP header field name. (type: `str`)
	value	An HTTP header field value. (type: `str`)

def handleStatus(self, version, status, message): (source)

overrides twisted.web.http.HTTPClient.handleStatus

Handle the HTTP status line.

Parameters	version	The HTTP version. (type: `bytes`)
	status	The HTTP status code, an integer represented as a bytestring. (type: `bytes`)
	message	The HTTP status message. (type: `bytes`)
