class SerialNumber(FancyStrMixin): (source)
Constructor: SerialNumber(number, serialBits)
An RFC1982 Serial Number.
This class implements RFC1982 DNS Serial Number Arithmetic.
SNA is used in DNS and specifically in DNSSEC as defined in RFC4034 in the DNSSEC Signature Expiration and Inception Fields.

Class Method | from |
Create an SerialNumber instance from a date string in format 'YYYYMMDDHHMMSS' described in RFC4034 3.2. |
Method | __add__ |
Allow addition with another SerialNumber instance. |
Method | __eq__ |
Allow rich equality comparison with another SerialNumber instance. |
Method | __ge__ |
Allow greater than or equal comparison with another SerialNumber instance. |
Method | __gt__ |
Allow greater than comparison with another SerialNumber instance. |
Method | __hash__ |
Allow SerialNumber instances to be hashed for use as dict keys. |
Method | __init__ |
Construct an SerialNumber instance. |
Method | __int__ |
No summary |
Method | __le__ |
Allow less than or equal comparison with another SerialNumber instance. |
Method | __lt__ |
Allow less than comparison with another SerialNumber instance. |
Method | __str__ |
Return a string representation of this SerialNumber instance. |
Method | to |
Calculate a date by treating the current SerialNumber value as a UNIX timestamp and return a date string in the format described in RFC4034 3.2. |
Class Variable | show |
Undocumented |
Method | _convert |
Check that a foreign object is suitable for use in the comparison or arithmetic magic methods of this SerialNumber instance. Raise TypeError if not. |
Instance Variable | _half |
Half _modulo. If another SerialNumber value is larger than this, it would lead to a wrapped value which is larger than the first and comparisons are therefore ambiguous. |
Instance Variable | _max |
Half _modulo plus 1. If another SerialNumber value is larger than this, it would lead to a wrapped value which is larger than the first. Comparisons with the original value would therefore be ambiguous. |
Instance Variable | _modulo |
The value at which wrapping will occur. |
Instance Variable | _number |
See number of __init__ . |
Instance Variable | _serial |
See serialBits of __init__ . |
Create an SerialNumber
instance from a date string in format 'YYYYMMDDHHMMSS' described in RFC4034 3.2.
The SerialNumber
instance stores the date as a 32bit UNIX timestamp.
Parameters | |
utcunicode | A UTC date/time string of format YYMMDDhhmmss which will be converted to seconds since the UNIX epoch. |
Returns | |
An SerialNumber instance containing the supplied date as a 32bit UNIX timestamp. | |

Allow addition with another SerialNumber
instance.
Serial numbers may be incremented by the addition of a positive integer n, where n is taken from the range of integers [0 .. (2^(SERIAL_BITS - 1) - 1)]. For a sequence number s, the result of such an addition, s', is defined as
s' = (s + n) modulo (2 ^ SERIAL_BITS)
where the addition and modulus operations here act upon values that are non-negative values of unbounded size in the usual ways of integer arithmetic.
Addition of a value outside the range [0 .. (2^(SERIAL_BITS - 1) - 1)] is undefined.
Raises | |
ArithmeticError | If other is more than _maxAdd ie more than half the maximum value of this serial number. |

Construct an SerialNumber
instance.
Parameters | |
number:int | An int which will be stored as the modulo number % 2 ^ serialBits |
serialint | The size of the serial number space. The power of two which results in one larger than the largest integer corresponding to a serial number value. |
Calculate a date by treating the current SerialNumber
value as a UNIX timestamp and return a date string in the format described in RFC4034 3.2.
Returns | |
The date string. |
Check that a foreign object is suitable for use in the comparison or arithmetic magic methods of this SerialNumber
instance. Raise TypeError
if not.
Parameters | |
other:object | The foreign object to be checked. |
Returns | |
SerialNumber | other after compatibility checks and possible coercion. |
Raises | |
TypeError | If other is not compatible. |
Half _modulo. If another SerialNumber
value is larger than this, it would lead to a wrapped value which is larger than the first and comparisons are therefore ambiguous.
Half _modulo plus 1. If another SerialNumber
value is larger than this, it would lead to a wrapped value which is larger than the first. Comparisons with the original value would therefore be ambiguous.
