t.w.c.h.HTTPParser(object) : class documentation

Part of twisted.web2.channel.http View Source View In Hierarchy

Known subclasses: twisted.web2.channel.http.HTTPChannelRequest, twisted.web2.client.http.HTTPClientChannelRequest

This class handles the parsing side of HTTP processing. With a suitable subclass, it can parse either the client side or the server side of the connection.

def rawDataReceived(self, data): (source)

Handle incoming content.

def headerReceived(self, line): (source)

def splitConnectionHeaders(self): (source)

Split off connection control headers from normal headers.

The normal headers are then passed on to user-level code, while the
connection headers are stashed in .connHeaders and used for things like
request/response framing.

This corresponds roughly with the HTTP RFC's description of 'hop-by-hop'
vs 'end-to-end' headers in RFC2616 S13.5.1, with the following
exceptions:

* proxy-authenticate and proxy-authorization are not treated as
  connection headers.

* content-length is, as it is intimiately related with low-level HTTP
  parsing, and is made available to user-level code via the stream
  length, rather than a header value. (except for HEAD responses, in
  which case it is NOT used by low-level HTTP parsing, and IS kept in
  the normal headers.
