class ReverseProxy(HTTPChannel): (source)

View In Hierarchy

Implements a simple reverse proxy.

For details of usage, see the file examples/reverse-proxy.py.

Inherited from HTTPChannel:

Method __init__ Undocumented
Method allContentReceived Undocumented
Method allHeadersReceived Undocumented
Method checkPersistence Check if the channel should close or not.
Method connectionLost Called when the connection is shut down.
Method connectionMade Called when a connection is made.
Method dataReceived Data was received from the network. Process it.
Method forceAbortClient No summary
Method getHost Get the local address of this connection.
Method getPeer Get the remote address of this connection.
Method headerReceived Do pre-processing (for content-length) and store this header away. Enforce the per-request header limit.
Method isSecure Return True if this channel is using a secure transport.
Method lineReceived Called for each line from request until the end of headers when it enters binary mode.
Method loseConnection Closes the connection. Will write any data that is pending to be sent on the network, but if this response has not yet been written to the network will not write anything.
Method pauseProducing Pause producing data.
Method rawDataReceived Override this for when raw data is received.
Method registerProducer Register to receive data from a producer.
Method requestDone Called by first request in queue when it is done.
Method resumeProducing Resume producing data.
Method stopProducing Stop producing data.
Method timeoutConnection Called when the connection times out.
Method unregisterProducer Stop consuming data from a producer, without disconnecting.
Method write Called by Request objects to write response data.
Method writeHeaders Called by Request objects to write a complete set of HTTP headers to a transport.
Method writeSequence Write a list of strings to the HTTP response.
Instance Variable abortTimeout The number of seconds to wait after we attempt to shut the transport down cleanly to give up and forcibly terminate it. This is only used when we time a connection out, to prevent errors causing the FD to get leaked. If this is None, we will wait forever.
Instance Variable length Undocumented
Instance Variable MAX_LENGTH Maximum length for initial request line and each line from the header.
Instance Variable maxHeaders Maximum number of headers allowed per request.
Instance Variable persistent Undocumented
Instance Variable requests Undocumented
Instance Variable totalHeadersSize Maximum bytes for request line plus all headers from the request.
Method _finishRequestBody Undocumented
Method _maybeChooseTransferDecoder If the provided header is content-length or transfer-encoding, choose the appropriate decoder if any.
Method _respondToBadRequestAndDisconnect This is a quick and dirty way of responding to bad requests.
Method _send100Continue Sends a 100 Continue response, used to signal to clients that further processing will be performed.
Class Variable __content Undocumented
Class Variable _log Undocumented
Instance Variable __first_line Undocumented
Instance Variable __header Undocumented
Instance Variable _abortingCall The twisted.internet.base.DelayedCall that will be used to forcibly close the transport if it doesn't close cleanly.
Instance Variable _command Undocumented
Instance Variable _dataBuffer Any data that has been received from the connection while processing an outstanding request.
Instance Variable _handlingRequest Whether a request is currently being processed.
Instance Variable _networkProducer Either the transport, if it provides interfaces.IPushProducer, or a null implementation of interfaces.IPushProducer. Used to attempt to prevent the transport from producing excess data when we're responding to a request.
Instance Variable _optimisticEagerReadSize When a resource takes a long time to answer a request (via twisted.web.server.NOT_DONE_YET, hopefully one day by a Deferred), we would like to be able to let that resource know about the underlying transport disappearing as promptly as possible, via Request.notifyFinish, and therefore via self.requests[...].connectionLost() on this HTTPChannel.
Instance Variable _path Undocumented
Instance Variable _receivedHeaderCount Undocumented
Instance Variable _receivedHeaderSize Bytes received so far for the header.
Instance Variable _requestProducer If the Request object or anything it calls registers itself as an interfaces.IProducer, it will be stored here. This is used to create a producing pipeline: pause/resume producing methods will be propagated from the transport, through the HTTPChannel instance, to the c{_requestProducer}.
Instance Variable _requestProducerStreaming A boolean that tracks whether the producer on the Request side of this channel has registered itself as a interfaces.IPushProducer or an interfaces.IPullProducer.
Instance Variable _savedTimeOut Undocumented
Instance Variable _transferDecoder None or a decoder instance if the request body uses the chunked Transfer-Encoding.
Instance Variable _version Undocumented
Instance Variable _waitingForTransport A boolean that tracks whether the transport has asked us to stop producing. This is used to keep track of what we're waiting for: if the transport has asked us to stop producing then we don't want to unpause the transport until it asks us to produce again.

Inherited from LineReceiver (via HTTPChannel):

Method clearLineBuffer Clear buffered data.
Method lineLengthExceeded Called when the maximum line length has been reached. Override if it needs to be dealt with in some special way.
Method sendLine Sends a line to the other end of the connection.
Method setLineMode Sets the line-mode of this receiver.
Method setRawMode Sets the raw mode of this receiver. Further data received will be sent to rawDataReceived rather than lineReceived.
Class Variable delimiter The line-ending delimiter to use. By default this is b'\r\n'.
Instance Variable line_mode Undocumented
Instance Variable _buffer Undocumented
Instance Variable _busyReceiving Undocumented

Inherited from Protocol (via HTTPChannel, LineReceiver):

Method logPrefix Return a prefix matching the class name, to identify log messages related to this protocol instance.
Class Variable factory Undocumented

Inherited from BaseProtocol (via HTTPChannel, LineReceiver, Protocol):

Method makeConnection Make a connection to a transport and a server.
Instance Variable connected Undocumented
Instance Variable transport Undocumented

Inherited from _PauseableMixin (via HTTPChannel, LineReceiver):

Instance Variable paused Undocumented

Inherited from TimeoutMixin (via HTTPChannel):

Method callLater Wrapper around reactor.callLater for test purpose.
Method resetTimeout Reset the timeout count down.
Method setTimeout Change the timeout period
Instance Variable timeOut The number of seconds after which to timeout the connection.
Method __timedOut Undocumented
Instance Variable __timeoutCall Undocumented
