"""An NNTP client class based on RFC 977: Network News Transfer Protocol.
|
||
|
||
Example:
|
||
|
||
>>> from nntplib import NNTP
|
||
>>> s = NNTP('news')
|
||
>>> resp, count, first, last, name = s.group('comp.lang.python')
|
||
>>> print 'Group', name, 'has', count, 'articles, range', first, 'to', last
|
||
Group comp.lang.python has 51 articles, range 5770 to 5821
|
||
>>> resp, subs = s.xhdr('subject', first + '-' + last)
|
||
>>> resp = s.quit()
|
||
>>>
|
||
|
||
Here 'resp' is the server response line.
|
||
Error responses are turned into exceptions.
|
||
|
||
To post an article from a file:
|
||
>>> f = open(filename, 'r') # file containing article, including header
|
||
>>> resp = s.post(f)
|
||
>>>
|
||
|
||
For descriptions of all methods, read the comments in the code below.
|
||
Note that all arguments and return values representing article numbers
|
||
are strings, not numbers, since they are rarely used for calculations.
