Known implementations: twisted.internet.endpoints._TLSClientEndpointParser
An IStreamClientEndpointStringParserWithReactor
is a parser which can convert a set of string *args
and
**kwargs
into an IStreamClientEndpoint
provider.
This interface is really only useful in the context of the plugin system
for endpoints.clientFromString
.
See the document entitled "The Twisted Plugin System" for
more details on how to write a plugin.
If you place an IStreamClientEndpointStringParserWithReactor
plugin in the twisted.plugins
package, that plugin's
parseStreamClient
method will be used to produce endpoints for
any description string that begins with the result of that IStreamClientEndpointStringParserWithReactor
's
prefix attribute.
Attribute | prefix | No summary |
Method | parseStreamClient | This method is invoked by endpoints.clientFromString ,
if the type of endpoint matches the return value from this IStreamClientEndpointStringParserWithReactor 's
prefix method. |
bytes
,
the description prefix to respond to. For example, an IStreamClientEndpointStringParserWithReactor
plugin which had b"foo"
for its prefix
attribute would be called for endpoint descriptions like
b"foo:bar:baz"
or
b"foo:"
.
This method is invoked by endpoints.clientFromString
,
if the type of endpoint matches the return value from this IStreamClientEndpointStringParserWithReactor
's
prefix
method.
Parameters | reactor | The reactor passed to endpoints.clientFromString . |
args | The byte string arguments, minus the endpoint type, in the endpoint
description string, parsed according to the rules described in endpoints.quoteStringArgument .
For example, if the description were
b"my-type:foo:bar:baz=qux" , args would
be (b'foo', b'bar') | |
kwargs | The byte string arguments from the endpoint description passed as keyword
arguments. For example, if the description were
b"my-type:foo:bar:baz=qux" , kwargs
would be dict(baz=b'qux') . | |
Returns | a client endpoint (type: a provider of IStreamClientEndpoint ) |
