twisted.web2.stream.ProducerStream : API documentation

t.w.s.ProducerStream(object) : class documentation

Turns producers into a IByteStream. Thus, implements IConsumer and IByteStream.

Method	__init__	Undocumented
Method	read	Read some data.
Method	split	Split this stream into two, at byte position 'point'.
Method	close	Called by reader of stream when it is done reading.
Method	write	The producer will write data by calling this method.
Method	finish	Called by producer when it is done.
Method	registerProducer	Register to receive data from a producer.
Method	unregisterProducer	Stop consuming data from a producer, without disconnecting.

def read(self): (source)

from twisted.web2.stream.IByteStream

overridden in twisted.web2.http._NotifyingProducerStream

Read some data.

Returns an object conforming to the buffer interface, or if there is no more data available, returns None. Can also return a Deferred resulting in one of the above.

Errors may be indicated by exception or by a Deferred of a Failure.

def split(self, point): (source)

from twisted.web2.stream.IByteStream

Split this stream into two, at byte position 'point'.

Returns a tuple of (before, after). After calling split, no other methods should be called on this stream. Doing so will have undefined behavior.

If you cannot implement split easily, you may implement it as:

   return fallbackSplit(self, point)

def close(self): (source)

from twisted.web2.stream.IByteStream

Called by reader of stream when it is done reading.

def finish(self, failure=None): (source)

overridden in twisted.web2.http._NotifyingProducerStream

Called by producer when it is done.

If the optional failure argument is passed a Failure instance, the stream will return it as errback on next Deferred.

def registerProducer(self, producer, streaming): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IConsumer

This sets self to be a consumer for a producer. When this object runs out of data (as when a send(2) call on a socket succeeds in moving the last data from a userspace buffer into a kernelspace buffer), it will ask the producer to resumeProducing().

For IPullProducer providers, resumeProducing will be called once each time data is required.

For IPushProducer providers, pauseProducing will be called whenever the write buffer fills up and resumeProducing will only be called when it empties.

Parameters	producer	(type: `IProducer` provider )
	streaming	`True` if `producer` provides `IPushProducer`, `False` if `producer` provides `IPullProducer`. (type: `bool` )
Returns	`None`

def unregisterProducer(self): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IConsumer

Stop consuming data from a producer, without disconnecting.
