circuits.net.events module

Networking Events

This module implements commonly used Networking events used by socket components.

class circuits.net.events.broadcast(*args)

Bases: circuits.core.events.Event

broadcast Event

This Event is used by the UDPServer/UDPClient sockets to send a message on the <broadcast> network.

Note

  • This event is never sent, it is used to send data.
  • This event is used for both Client and Server UDP Components.
Parameters:args – (data, port)

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

class circuits.net.events.close(*args)

Bases: circuits.core.events.Event

close Event

This Event is used to notify a client, client connection or server that we want to close.

Note

  • This event is never sent, it is used to close.
  • This event is used for both Client and Server Components.
Parameters:args – Client: () Server: (sock)

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

class circuits.net.events.closed(*args, **kwargs)

Bases: circuits.core.events.Event

closed Event

This Event is sent when a server has closed its listening socket.

Note

This event is for Server components.

An event is a message send to one or more channels. It is eventually dispatched to all components that have handlers for one of the channels and the event type.

All normal arguments and keyword arguments passed to the constructor of an event are passed on to the handler. When declaring a handler, its argument list must therefore match the arguments used for creating the event.

Every event has a name attribute that is used for matching the event with the handlers.

Variables:
  • channels –

    an optional attribute that may be set before firing the event. If defined (usually as a class variable), the attribute specifies the channels that the event should be delivered to as a tuple. This overrides the default behavior of sending the event to the firing component’s channel.

    When an event is fired, the value in this attribute is replaced for the instance with the channels that the event is actually sent to. This information may be used e.g. when the event is passed as a parameter to a handler.

  • value – this is a circuits.core.values.Value object that holds the results returned by the handlers invoked for the event.
  • success – if this optional attribute is set to True, an associated event success (original name with “_success” appended) will automatically be fired when all handlers for the event have been invoked successfully.
  • success_channels – the success event is, by default, delivered to same channels as the successfully dispatched event itself. This may be overridden by specifying an alternative list of destinations using this attribute.
  • complete – if this optional attribute is set to True, an associated event complete (original name with “_complete” appended) will automatically be fired when all handlers for the event and all events fired by these handlers (recursively) have been invoked successfully.
  • complete_channels – the complete event is, by default, delivered to same channels as the initially dispatched event itself. This may be overridden by specifying an alternative list of destinations using this attribute.
class circuits.net.events.connect(*args, **kwargs)

Bases: circuits.core.events.Event

connect Event

This Event is sent when a new client connection has arrived on a server. This event is also used for client’s to initiate a new connection to a remote host.

Note

This event is used for both Client and Server Components.

Parameters:
  • args (tuple) – Client: (host, port) Server: (sock, host, port)
  • kwargs (dict) – Client: (ssl)

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

class circuits.net.events.connected(host, port)

Bases: circuits.core.events.Event

connected Event

This Event is sent when a client has successfully connected.

Note

This event is for Client Components.

Parameters:
  • host – The hostname connected to.
  • port – The port connected to

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

class circuits.net.events.disconnect(*args)

Bases: circuits.core.events.Event

disconnect Event

This Event is sent when a client connection has closed on a server. This event is also used for client’s to disconnect from a remote host.

Note

This event is used for both Client and Server Components.

Parameters:args – Client: () Server: (sock)

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

class circuits.net.events.disconnected

Bases: circuits.core.events.Event

disconnected Event

This Event is sent when a client has disconnected

Note

This event is for Client Components.

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

class circuits.net.events.error(*args)

Bases: circuits.core.events.Event

error Event

This Event is sent when a client or server connection has an error.

Note

This event is used for both Client and Server Components.

Parameters:args – Client: (error) Server: (sock, error)

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

class circuits.net.events.read(*args)

Bases: circuits.core.events.Event

read Event

This Event is sent when a client or server connection has read any data.

Note

This event is used for both Client and Server Components.

Parameters:args – Client: (data) Server: (sock, data)

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

class circuits.net.events.ready(component, bind=None)

Bases: circuits.core.events.Event

ready Event

This Event is used to notify the rest of the system that the underlying Client or Server Component is ready to begin processing connections or incoming/outgoing data. (This is triggered as a direct result of having the capability to support multiple client/server components with a single poller component instance in a system).

Note

This event is used for both Client and Server Components.

Parameters:
  • component – The Client/Server Component that is ready.
  • bind – The (host, port) the server has bound to.

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

class circuits.net.events.starttls(sock)

Bases: circuits.core.events.Event

starttls Event

This event can be fired to upgrade the socket connection to a TLS secured connection.

Note

This event is currently only available for Server Components.

Parameters:sock (socket.socket) – The client socket where to start TLS.
class circuits.net.events.unreachable(host, port, reason=None)

Bases: circuits.core.events.Event

unreachable Event

This Event is sent when a server is unreachable for a client

Parameters:
  • host – Server hostname or IP
  • port – Server port

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

class circuits.net.events.write(*args)

Bases: circuits.core.events.Event

write Event

This Event is used to notify a client, client connection or server that we have data to be written.

Note

  • This event is never sent, it is used to send data.
  • This event is used for both Client and Server Components.
Parameters:args – Client: (data) Server: (sock, data)

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature
