                           HttxManager

Main HttxLib Connecting object. The HttxManager is responsible for creating and managing a set of HttxNetLocation (net locations) objects that will in turn hold the actual connections.

The net location objects will be created on demand and kept in storage. A reference to active netlocations, (those with a pending getresponse after a request) will also be stored in a cache.

Instance Methods

__init__(self, **kwargs)
Constructor.

HttxManager @see clone

__deepcopy__(self, memo)
Deepcopy support.

source code

HttxManager

clone(self, options=None, netLocations=True)
Clone the object using the supplied options or a new set of options if given.

source code

setproxydefaults(self)
Set the proxy options from OS defaults or environment variables if present using the functionality preset in urllib

source code

setproxy(self, proxy=None)
Set the proxy options by opening specific netlocations for http and/or https schemes The proxy can be different for http and https connections.

source code

HttxNetLocation

_getnetlocation(self, httxreq)
Internal interface to fetch the appropiate HttxNetLocation net location object to use to issue a request as specified by httxreq

source code

opaque type for the caller (a Python sock)

request(self, httxreq)
Send the HttxRequest httxreq to the specified server inside the request

source code

HttxResponse (compatible with httplib HTTPResponse)

getresponse(self, sock)
Recover a HttxResponse using a net location from the cache of active HttxNetLocation net locations and calling its getresponse

Method Details

[hide private]

init(self, **kwargs)
(Constructor)

source code

Constructor. It delegates construction to the base class HttxBase, except for the proxy that will be set specifically

Setting the proxy ensures the initialization of the storage of netlocations and the cache of active netlocations

Parameters:

kwargs - keywords arguments

Overrides: object.__init__

See Also: HttxOptions

deepcopy(self, memo)

source code

Deepcopy support.

Parameters:

memo (dict) - standard __deepcopy__ parameter to avoid circular references

Returns: HttxManager @see clone

cloned object

clone(self, options=None, netLocations=True)

source code

Clone the object using the supplied options or a new set of options if given.

An equivalente set of HttxNetLocation net locations will be replicated

A new set of options will separate the clone object from the original object, since they will no longer share cookies, user/password/realm combinations or https certificates

Parameters:
