For examples and more explanations, see the module level docs.

class HTTPParser(Axon.Component.component)

Component that transforms HTTP requests or responses from a single TCP connection into multiple easy-to-use dictionary objects.

inbox : Raw HTTP requests/responses

Outboxes

debug : Debugging information
outbox : HTTP request object
signal : UNUSED

Methods defined here

Warning!

You should be using the inbox/outbox interface, not these methods (except construction). This documentation is designed as a roadmap as to their functionalilty for maintainers and new component developers.

init(self, mode, **argd)

closeConnection(self)

dataFetch(self)

Read once from inbox (generally a TCP connection) and add what is received to the readbuffer. This is somewhat inefficient for long lines maybe O(n^2)

debug(self, msg)

getBody(self, requestobject)

getBodyDependingOnHalfClose(self)

getBody_ChunkTransferEncoding(self, requestobject)

getBody_KnownContentLength(self, requestobject)

getHeaders(self, requestobject)

getInitialLine(self)

handleInitialLine(self, requestobject)

handle_requestline(self, splitline, requestobject)

initialiseRequestObject(self)

main(self)

nextLine(self)

Fetch the next complete line in the readbuffer, if there is one

setConnectionMode(self, requestobject)

setServer(self, requestobject)

shouldShutdown(self)

splitProtocolVersion(self, protvers, requestobject)
