twisted.internet.cfreactor.CFReactor : API documentation

Implements interfaces: twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorFDSet

The CoreFoundation reactor.

You probably want to use this via the install API.

Method	__init__	Undocumented
Method	installWaker	Override `installWaker` in order to use `_WakerPlus`; otherwise this should be exactly the same as the parent implementation.
Method	addReader	Implement `IReactorFDSet.addReader`.
Method	addWriter	Implement `IReactorFDSet.addWriter`.
Method	removeReader	Implement `IReactorFDSet.removeReader`.
Method	removeWriter	Implement `IReactorFDSet.removeWriter`.
Method	removeAll	Implement `IReactorFDSet.removeAll`.
Method	getReaders	Implement `IReactorFDSet.getReaders`.
Method	getWriters	Implement `IReactorFDSet.getWriters`.
Method	mainLoop	Run the runner (`CFRunLoopRun` or something that calls it), which runs the run loop until `crash()` is called.
Method	callLater	Implement `IReactorTime.callLater`.
Method	stop	Implement `IReactorCore.stop`.
Method	crash	Implement `IReactorCore.crash`
Method	iterate	Emulate the behavior of `iterate()` for things that want to call it, by letting the loop run for a little while and then scheduling a timed call to exit it.
Instance Variable	_fdmap	a dictionary, mapping an integer (a file descriptor) to a 4-tuple of: source: a `CFRunLoopSource`; the source associated with this socket. socket: a `CFSocket` wrapping the file descriptor. descriptor: an `IReadDescriptor` and/or `IWriteDescriptor` provider. read-write: a 2-`list` of booleans: respectively, whether this descriptor is currently registered for reading or registered for writing.
Instance Variable	_idmap	a dictionary, mapping the id() of an `IReadDescriptor` or `IWriteDescriptor` to a `fd` in `_fdmap`. Implemented in this manner so that we don't have to rely (even more) on the hashability of `IReadDescriptor` providers, and we know that they won't be collected since these are kept in sync with `_fdmap`. Necessary because the .fileno() of a file descriptor may change at will, so we need to be able to look up what its file descriptor used to be, so that we can look it up in `_fdmap`
Instance Variable	_cfrunloop	the `CFRunLoop` pyobjc object wrapped by this reactor.
Instance Variable	_inCFLoop	Is `CFRunLoopRun` currently running? (type: `bool`)
Instance Variable	_currentSimulator	if a CFTimer is currently scheduled with the CF run loop to run Twisted callLater calls, this is a reference to it. Otherwise, it is `None`
Method	_socketCallback	The socket callback issued by CFRunLoop. This will issue `doRead` or `doWrite` calls to the `IReadDescriptor` and `IWriteDescriptor` registered with the file descriptor that we are being notified of.
Method	_watchFD	Register a file descriptor with the `CFRunLoop`, or modify its state so that it's listening for both notifications (read and write) rather than just one; used to implement `addReader` and `addWriter`.
Method	_flag2idx	Convert a `kCFSocket...` constant to an index into the read/write state list (`_READ` or `_WRITE`) (the 4th element of the value of `self._fdmap`).
Method	_unwatchFD	Unregister a file descriptor with the `CFRunLoop`, or modify its state so that it's listening for only one notification (read or write) as opposed to both; used to implement `removeReader` and `removeWriter`.
Method	_moveCallLaterSooner	No summary
Method	_scheduleSimulate	Schedule a call to `self.runUntilCurrent`. This will cancel the currently scheduled call if it is already scheduled.
Method	_stopNow	Immediately stop the CFRunLoop (which must be running!).

_fdmap =

a dictionary, mapping an integer (a file descriptor) to a 4-tuple of:

source: a CFRunLoopSource; the source associated with this socket.
socket: a CFSocket wrapping the file descriptor.
descriptor: an IReadDescriptor and/or IWriteDescriptor provider.
read-write: a 2-list of booleans: respectively, whether this descriptor is currently registered for reading or registered for writing.

_idmap =

a dictionary, mapping the id() of an IReadDescriptor or IWriteDescriptor to a fd in _fdmap. Implemented in this manner so that we don't have to rely (even more) on the hashability of IReadDescriptor providers, and we know that they won't be collected since these are kept in sync with _fdmap. Necessary because the .fileno() of a file descriptor may change at will, so we need to be able to look up what its file descriptor used to be, so that we can look it up in _fdmap

_cfrunloop =

the CFRunLoop pyobjc object wrapped by this reactor.

_inCFLoop =

Is CFRunLoopRun currently running? (type: bool)

_currentSimulator =

if a CFTimer is currently scheduled with the CF run loop to run Twisted callLater calls, this is a reference to it. Otherwise, it is None

def __init__(self, runLoop=None, runner=None): (source)

overrides twisted.internet.base.ReactorBase.__init__

Undocumented

def installWaker(self): (source)

overrides twisted.internet.posixbase.PosixReactorBase.installWaker

Override installWaker in order to use _WakerPlus; otherwise this should be exactly the same as the parent implementation.

def _socketCallback(self, cfSocket, callbackType, ignoredAddress, ignoredData, context): (source)

The socket callback issued by CFRunLoop. This will issue doRead or doWrite calls to the IReadDescriptor and IWriteDescriptor registered with the file descriptor that we are being notified of.

Parameters	cfSocket	The `CFSocket` which has got some activity.
	callbackType	The type of activity that we are being notified of. Either `kCFSocketReadCallBack` or `kCFSocketWriteCallBack`.
	ignoredAddress	Unused, because this is not used for either of the callback types we register for.
	ignoredData	Unused, because this is not used for either of the callback types we register for.
	context	The data associated with this callback by `CFSocketCreateWithNative` (in `CFReactor._watchFD`). A 2-tuple of `(int, CFRunLoopSource)`.

def _watchFD(self, fd, descr, flag): (source)

Register a file descriptor with the CFRunLoop, or modify its state so that it's listening for both notifications (read and write) rather than just one; used to implement addReader and addWriter.

Parameters	fd	The file descriptor. (type: `int`)
	descr	the `IReadDescriptor` or `IWriteDescriptor`
	flag	the flag to register for callbacks on, either `kCFSocketReadCallBack` or `kCFSocketWriteCallBack`

def _flag2idx(self, flag): (source)

Convert a kCFSocket... constant to an index into the read/write state list (_READ or _WRITE) (the 4th element of the value of self._fdmap).

Parameters	flag	`kCFSocketReadCallBack` or `kCFSocketWriteCallBack`
Returns	`_READ` or `_WRITE`

def _unwatchFD(self, fd, descr, flag): (source)

Unregister a file descriptor with the CFRunLoop, or modify its state so that it's listening for only one notification (read or write) as opposed to both; used to implement removeReader and removeWriter.

Parameters	fd	a file descriptor (type: `int`)
	descr	an `IReadDescriptor` or `IWriteDescriptor`
	flag	`kCFSocketWriteCallBack` `kCFSocketReadCallBack`

def addReader(self, reader): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorFDSet

overrides twisted.internet.base.ReactorBase.addReader

Implement IReactorFDSet.addReader.

def addWriter(self, writer): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorFDSet

overrides twisted.internet.base.ReactorBase.addWriter

Implement IReactorFDSet.addWriter.

def removeReader(self, reader): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorFDSet

overrides twisted.internet.base.ReactorBase.removeReader

Implement IReactorFDSet.removeReader.

def removeWriter(self, writer): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorFDSet

overrides twisted.internet.base.ReactorBase.removeWriter

Implement IReactorFDSet.removeWriter.

def removeAll(self): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorFDSet

overrides twisted.internet.base.ReactorBase.removeAll

Implement IReactorFDSet.removeAll.

def getReaders(self): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorFDSet

overrides twisted.internet.base.ReactorBase.getReaders

Implement IReactorFDSet.getReaders.

def getWriters(self): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorFDSet

overrides twisted.internet.base.ReactorBase.getWriters

Implement IReactorFDSet.getWriters.

def _moveCallLaterSooner(self, tple): (source)

overrides twisted.internet.base.ReactorBase._moveCallLaterSooner

Override PosixReactorBase's implementation of IDelayedCall.reset so that it will immediately reschedule. Normally _moveCallLaterSooner depends on the fact that runUntilCurrent is always run before the mainloop goes back to sleep, so this forces it to immediately recompute how long the loop needs to stay asleep.

def mainLoop(self): (source)

overrides twisted.internet.base._SignalReactorMixin.mainLoop

Run the runner (CFRunLoopRun or something that calls it), which runs the run loop until crash() is called.

def _scheduleSimulate(self, force=False): (source)

Schedule a call to self.runUntilCurrent. This will cancel the currently scheduled call if it is already scheduled.

Parameters force Even if there are no timed calls, make sure that runUntilCurrent runs immediately (in a 0-seconds-from-now CFRunLoopTimer). This is necessary for calls which need to trigger behavior of runUntilCurrent other than running timed calls, such as draining the thread call queue or calling crash() when the appropriate flags are set. (type: bool)

def callLater(self, _seconds, _f, *args, **kw): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorTime

overrides twisted.internet.base.ReactorBase.callLater

Implement IReactorTime.callLater.

def stop(self): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorCore

overrides twisted.internet.base.ReactorBase.stop

Implement IReactorCore.stop.

def crash(self): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorCore

overrides twisted.internet.base.ReactorBase.crash

Implement IReactorCore.crash

def _stopNow(self): (source)

Immediately stop the CFRunLoop (which must be running!).

def iterate(self, delay=0): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorCore

overrides twisted.internet.base.ReactorBase.iterate

Emulate the behavior of iterate() for things that want to call it, by letting the loop run for a little while and then scheduling a timed call to exit it.
