Parser for \filenq{robots.txt}}
\declaremodule{standard}{robotparser}
\modulesynopsis{Accepts as input a list of lines or URL that refers to a
robots.txt file, parses the file, then builds a
set of rules from that list and answers questions
about fetchability of other URLs.}

\index{World-Wide Web}
\index{URL}
\index{robots.txt}
This module provides a single class, \class{RobotFileParser}, which answers
questions about whether or not a particular user agent can fetch a URL on
the web site that published the \file{robots.txt} file. For more details on
the structure of \file{robots.txt} files, see
\url{http://info.webcrawler.com/mak/projects/robots/norobots.html}.
\begin{classdesc}{RobotFileParser}{}
This class provides a set of methods to read, parse and answer questions
about a single \file{robots.txt} file.
\begin{methoddesc}{set_url}{url}
Sets the URL referring to a \file{robots.txt} file.
\end{methoddesc}
\begin{methoddesc}{read}{}
Reads the \file{robots.txt} URL and feeds it to the parser.
\end{methoddesc}
\begin{methoddesc}{parse}{lines}
Parses the lines argument.
\end{methoddesc}
\begin{methoddesc}{can_fetch}{useragent, url}
Returns true if the \var{useragent} is allowed to fetch the \var{url}
according to the rules contained in the parsed \file{robots.txt} file.
\end{methoddesc}
\begin{methoddesc}{mtime}{}
Returns the time the \code{robots.txt} file was last fetched. This is
useful for long-running web spiders that need to check for new
\code{robots.txt} files periodically.
\end{methoddesc}
\begin{methoddesc}{modified}{}
Sets the time the \code{robots.txt} file was last fetched to the current
time.
\end{methoddesc}
\end{classdesc}
The following example demonstrates basic use of the RobotFileParser class.
\begin{verbatim}
>>> import robotparser
>>> rp = robotparser.RobotFileParser()
>>> rp.set_url("http://www.musi-cal.com/robots.txt")
>>> rp.read()
>>> rp.can_fetch("*", "http://www.musi-cal.com/cgi-bin/search?city=San+Francisco")
0
>>> rp.can_fetch("*", "http://www.musi-cal.com/")

\section{\module{zipfile} ---
Work with ZIP archives}
\modulesynopsis{Read and write ZIP-format archive files.}
\moduleauthor{James C. Ahlstrom}{jim@interet.com}
\sectionauthor{James C. Ahlstrom}{jim@interet.com}
% LaTeX markup by Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake@acm.org>
The ZIP file format is a common archive and compression standard.
This module provides tools to create, read, write, append, and list a
ZIP file.
The available attributes of this module are:
\begin{excdesc}{error}
The error raised for bad ZIP files.
\end{excdesc}
\begin{datadesc}{_debug}
Level of printing, defaults to \code{1}.
\end{datadesc}
\begin{classdesc}{ZipFile}{...}
The class for reading and writing ZIP files. See
``\citetitle{ZipFile Objects}'' (section \ref{zipfile-objects}) for
constructor details.
\end{classdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{is_zipfile}{path}
Returns true if \var{path} is a valid ZIP file based on its magic
number, otherwise returns false. This module does not currently
handle ZIP files which have appended comments.
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{zip2date}{zdate}
Return \code{(\var{year}, \var{month}, \var{day})} for a ZIP date
code.
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{zip2time}{ztime}
Return \code{(\var{hour}, \var{minute}, \var{second})} for a ZIP
time code.
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{date2zip}{year, month, day}
Return a ZIP date code.
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{funcdesc}{time2zip}{hour, minute, second}
Return a ZIP time code.
\end{funcdesc}
\begin{datadesc}{ZIP_STORED}
The numeric constant (\code{0}) for an uncompressed archive member.
\end{datadesc}
\begin{datadesc}{ZIP_DEFLATED}
The numeric constant for the usual ZIP compression method. This
requires the zlib module. No other compression methods are
currently supported.
\end{datadesc}
\begin{seealso}
\seetext{XXX point to ZIP format definition}
\seetext{XXX point to Info-ZIP home page; mention WiZ}
\end{seealso}
\subsection{ZipFile Objects \label{zipfile-objects}}
\begin{classdesc}{ZipFile}{filename\optional{, mode\optional{, compression}}}
Open a ZIP file named \var{filename}. The \var{mode} parameter
should be \code{'r'} to read an existing file, \code{'w'} to
truncate and write a new file, or \code{'a'} to append to an
existing file. For \var{mode} is \code{'a'} and \var{filename}
refers to an existing ZIP file, then additional files are added to
it. If \var{filename} does not refer to a ZIP file, then a new ZIP
archive is appended to the file. This is meant for adding a ZIP
archive to another file, such as \file{python.exe}. Using
\begin{verbatim}
cat myzip.zip >> python.exe
\end{verbatim}
also works, and at least \program{WinZip} can read such files.
\var{compression} is the ZIP compression method to use when writing
the archive, and should be \constant{ZIP_STORED} or
\constant{ZIP_DEFLATED}; unrecognized values will cause
\exception{ValueError} to be raised. The default is
\constant{ZIP_STORED}.
\end{classdesc}
XXX explain the "extra" string for the ZIP format
\begin{memberdesc}{TOC}
A read-only dictionary whose keys are the names in the archive, and
whose values are tuples as follows:
\begin{tableii}{c|l}{code}{Index}{Meaning}
\lineii{0}{File data seek offset}
\lineii{1}{ZIP file "extra" data as a string}
\lineii{2}{ZIP file bit flags}
\lineii{3}{ZIP file compression type}
\lineii{4}{File modification time in DOS format}
\lineii{5}{File modification date in DOS format}
\lineii{6}{The CRC-32 of the uncompressed data}
\lineii{7}{The compressed size of the file}
\lineii{8}{The uncompressed size of the file}
\end{tableii}
\end{memberdesc}
The class ZipFile has these methods:
\begin{methoddesc}{listdir}{}
Return a list of names in the archive. Equivalent to
\code{\var{zipfile}.TOC.keys()}.
\end{methoddesc}
\begin{methoddesc}{printdir}{}
Print a table of contents for the archive to stdout.
\end{methoddesc}
\begin{methoddesc}{read}{name}
Return the bytes of the file in the archive. The archive must be
open for read or append.
\end{methoddesc}
\begin{methoddesc}{writestr}{bytes, arcname, year, month, day, hour,
minute, second\optional{, extra}}
Write the string \var{bytes} and the other data to the archive, and
give the archive member the name \var{arcname}. \var{extra} is the
ZIP extra data string. The archive must be opened with mode
\code{'w'} or \code{'a'}.
\end{methoddesc}
\begin{methoddesc}{write}{filename, arcname\optional{, extra}}
Write the file named \var{filename} to the archive, giving it the
archive name \var{arcname}. \var{extra} is the ZIP extra data
string. The archive must be open with mode \code{'w'} or
\code{'a'}.
\end{methoddesc}
\begin{methoddesc}{writepy}{pathname\optional{, basename}}
Search for files \file{*.py} and add the corresponding file to the
archive. The corresponding file is a \file{*.pyo} file if
available, else a \file{*.pyc} file, compiling if necessary. If the
pathname is a file, the filename must end with \file{.py}, and just
the (corresponding \file{*.py[oc]}) file is added at the top level
(no path information). If it is a directory, and the directory is
not a package directory, then all the files \file{*.py[oc]} are
added at the top level. If the directory is a package directory,
then all \file{*.py[oc]} are added under the package name as a file
path, and if any subdirectories are package directories, all of
these are added recursively. \var{basename} is intended for
internal use only. The \method{writepy()} method makes archives
with file names like this:
\begin{verbatim}
string.pyc # Top level name
test/__init__.pyc # Package directory
test/testall.pyc # Module test.testall
test/bogus/__init__.pyc # Subpackage directory
test/bogus/myfile.pyc # Submodule test.bogus.myfile
\end{verbatim}
\end{methoddesc}
\begin{methoddesc}{close}{}
Close the archive file. You must call \method{close()} before
exiting your program or essential records will not be written.
\end{methoddesc}
