Much-needed merge (using svnmerge.py this time) of trunk changes into p3yk.
Inherits test_gzip/test_tarfile failures on 64-bit platforms from the trunk, but I don't want the merge to hang around too long (even though the regular p3yk-contributors are/have been busy with other things.)

Python 2.4 changed ntpath.abspath to do an import inside the function. As a result, due to Python's import lock, anything calling abspath on Windows (directly, or indirectly like tempfile.TemporaryFile) hung when it was called from a thread spawned as a side effect of importing a module. This is a depressingly frequent problem, and deserves a more general fix. I'm settling for a micro-fix here because this specific one accounts for a report of Zope Corp's ZEO hanging on Windows, and it was an odd way to change abspath to begin with (ntpath needs a different implementation depending on whether we're actually running on Windows, and the _obvious_ way to arrange for that is not to bury a possibly-failing import _inside_ the function). Note that if/when other micro-fixes of this kind get made, the new Lib/test/threaded_import_hangers.py is a convenient place to add tests for them. ........ r45634 | phillip.eby | 2006-04-21 23:53:37 +0200 (Fri, 21 Apr 2006) | 2 lines Guido wrote contextlib, not me, but thanks anyway. ;) ........ r45636 | andrew.kuchling | 2006-04-22 03:51:41 +0200 (Sat, 22 Apr 2006) | 1 line Typo fixes ........ r45638 | andrew.kuchling | 2006-04-22 03:58:40 +0200 (Sat, 22 Apr 2006) | 1 line Fix comment typo ........ r45639 | andrew.kuchling | 2006-04-22 04:06:03 +0200 (Sat, 22 Apr 2006) | 8 lines Make copy of test_mailbox.py. We'll still want to check the backward compatibility classes in the new mailbox.py that I'll be committing in a few minutes.

Johnson's revised version of mailbox.py (funded by the 2005 Summer of Code). The revision adds a number of new mailbox classes that support adding and removing messages; these classes also support mailbox locking and default to using email.Message instead of rfc822.Message. The old mailbox classes are largely left alone for backward compatibility. The exception is the Maildir class, which was present in the old module and now inherits from the new classes. The Maildir class's interface is pretty simple, though, so I think it'll be compatible with existing code. (The change to the NEWS file also adds a missing word to a different news item, which unfortunately required rewrapping the line.) ........ r45641 | tim.peters | 2006-04-22 07:52:59 +0200 (Sat, 22 Apr 2006) | 2 lines Whitespace normalization. ........ r45642 | neal.norwitz | 2006-04-22 08:07:46 +0200 (Sat, 22 Apr 2006) | 1 line Add libctypes as a dep ........ r45643 | martin.v.loewis | 2006-04-22 13:15:41 +0200 (Sat, 22 Apr 2006) | 1 line Fix more ssize_t problems. ........ r45644 | martin.v.loewis | 2006-04-22 13:40:03 +0200 (Sat, 22 Apr 2006) | 1 line Fix more ssize_t issues. ........ r45645 | george.yoshida | 2006-04-22 17:10:49 +0200 (Sat, 22 Apr 2006) | 2 lines Typo fixes ........ r45647 | martin.v.loewis | 2006-04-22 17:19:54 +0200 (Sat, 22 Apr 2006) | 1 line Port to Python 2.5.

The aim of this is to avoid ambiguity in relation to the runtime context set up when the block is executed, and the context objects that already exist in various application domains (such as decimal.Context) - contextlib.contextmanager is renamed to contextfactory This best reflects the nature of the function resulting from the use of that decorator - decimal.ContextManager is renamed to WithStatementContext Simple dropping the 'Manager' part wasn't possible due to the fact that decimal.Context already exists and means something different. WithStatementContext is ugly but workable.

In rare cases of strings specifying true values near sys.maxint, and oddball bases (not decimal or a power of 2), int(string, base) could deliver insane answers. This repairs all such problems, and also speeds string->int significantly. On my box, here are % speedups for decimal strings of various lengths: length speedup ------ ------- 1 12.4% 2 15.7% 3 20.6% 4 28.1% 5 33.2% 6 37.5% 7 41.9% 8 46.3% 9 51.2% 10 19.5% 11 19.9% 12 23.9% 13 23.7% 14 23.3% 15 24.9% 16 25.3% 17 28.3% 18 27.9% 19 35.7% Note that the difference between 9 and 10 is the difference between short and long Python ints on a 32-bit box. The patch doesn't actually do anything to speed conversion to long: the speedup is due to detecting "unsigned long" overflow more quickly. This is a bugfix candidate, but it's a non-trivial patch and it would be painful to separate the "bug fix" from the "speed up" parts. ........ r46134 | bob.ippolito | 2006-05-23 20:46:41 +0200 (Tue, 23 May 2006) | 1 line Patch #1493701: performance enhancements for struct module. ........ r46136 | andrew.kuchling | 2006-05-23 21:00:45 +0200 (Tue, 23 May 2006) | 1 line Remove duplicate item ........ r46141 | bob.ippolito | 2006-05-23 21:09:51 +0200 (Tue, 23 May 2006) | 1 line revert #1493701 ........ r46142 | bob.ippolito | 2006-05-23 21:11:34 +0200 (Tue, 23 May 2006) | 1 line patch #1493701: performance enhancements for struct module ........ r46144 | bob.ippolito | 2006-05-23 21:12:41 +0200 (Tue, 23 May 2006) | 1 line patch #1493701: performance enhancements for struct module ........ r46148 | bob.ippolito | 2006-05-23 21:25:52 +0200 (Tue, 23 May 2006) | 1 line fix linking issue, warnings, in struct ........ r46149 | andrew.kuchling | 2006-05-23 21:29:38 +0200 (Tue, 23 May 2006) | 1 line Add two items ........ r46150 | bob.ippolito | 2006-05-23 21:31:23 +0200 (Tue, 23 May 2006) | 1 line forward declaration for PyStructType ........ r46151 | bob.ippolito | 2006-05-23 21:32:25 +0200 (Tue, 23 May 2006) | 1 line fix typo in _struct ........ r46152 | andrew.kuchling | 2006-05-23 21:32:35 +0200 (Tue, 23 May 2006) | 1 line Add item ........ r46153 | tim.peters | 2006-05-23 21:34:37 +0200 (Tue, 23 May 2006) | 3 lines Get the Windows build working again (recover from `struct` module changes). ........ r46155 | fredrik.lundh | 2006-05-23 21:47:35 +0200 (Tue, 23 May 2006) | 3 lines return 0 on misses, not -1. ........ r46156 | tim.peters | 2006-05-23 23:51:35 +0200 (Tue, 23 May 2006) | 4 lines test_struct grew weird behavior under regrtest.py -R, due to a module-level cache.

Originally it allocated 0 items and used the list growth during append. Now it preallocates 12 items so the first few appends don't need list reallocs. ("Here are some words ."*2).split(None, 1) is 7% faster ("Here are some words ."*2).split() is is 15% faster (Your milage may vary, see dealership for details.) File parsing like this for line in f: count += len(line.split()) is also about 15% faster. There is a slowdown of about 3% for large strings because of the additional overhead of checking if the append is to a preallocated region of the list or not. This will be the rare case. It could be improved with special case code but we decided it was not useful enough. There is a cost of 12*sizeof(PyObject *) bytes per list. For the normal case of file parsing this is not a problem because of the lists have a short lifetime. We have not come up with cases where this is a problem in real life. I chose 12 because human text averages about 11 words per line in books, one of my data sets averages 6.2 words with a final peak at 11 words per line, and I work with a tab delimited data set with 8 tabs per line (or 9 words per line). 12 encompasses all of these.

to detect reference cycles. A typical implementation of a
|
||||
\member{tp_traverse} function simply calls \cfunction{Py_VISIT()} on
|
||||
each of the instance's members that are Python objects. For exampe, this
|
||||
is function \cfunction{local_traverse} from the \module{thread} extension
|

module:
|

|

\begin{verbatim}

}

\end{verbatim}
|
||||
|
||||
Note that \cfunction{Py_VISIT()} is called only on those members that can
|
||||
participate in reference cycles. Although there is also a
|
||||
\samp{self->key} member, it can only be \NULL{} or a Python string and
|
||||
therefore cannot be part of a reference cycle.
|
||||
|
||||
On the other hand, even if you know a member can never be part of a cycle,
|
||||
as a debugging aid you may want to visit it anyway just so the
|
||||
\module{gc} module's \function{get_referents()} function will include it.

|

The \member{tp_clear} member function is used to break reference
|
||||
cycles in cyclic garbage detected by the garbage collector. Taken
|
||||
together, all \member{tp_clear} functions in the system must combine to
|
||||
break all reference cycles. This is subtle, and if in any doubt supply a
|
||||
\member{tp_clear} function. For example, the tuple type does not
|
||||
implement a \member{tp_clear} function, because it's possible to prove
|
||||
that no reference cycle can be composed entirely of tuples. Therefore
|
||||
the \member{tp_clear} functions of other types must be sufficient to
|
||||
break any cycle containing a tuple. This isn't immediately obvious, and
|
||||
there's rarely a good reason to avoid implementing \member{tp_clear}.
|
||||
|
||||
Implementations of \member{tp_clear} should drop the instance's
|
||||
references to those of its members that may be Python objects, and set
|
||||
its pointers to those members to \NULL{}, as in the following example:
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{verbatim}
|
||||
static int
|
||||
local_clear(localobject *self)
|
||||
{
|
||||
Py_CLEAR(self->key);
|
||||
Py_CLEAR(self->args);
|
||||
Py_CLEAR(self->kw);
|
||||
Py_CLEAR(self->dict);
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
\end{verbatim}
|
||||
|
||||
The \cfunction{Py_CLEAR()} macro should be used, because clearing
|
||||
references is delicate: the reference to the contained object must not be
|
||||
decremented until after the pointer to the contained object is set to
|
||||
\NULL{}. This is because decrementing the reference count may cause
|
||||
the contained object to become trash, triggering a chain of reclamation
|
||||
activity that may include invoking arbitrary Python code (due to
|
||||
finalizers, or weakref callbacks, associated with the contained object).
|
||||
If it's possible for such code to reference \var{self} again, it's
|
||||
important that the pointer to the contained object be \NULL{} at that
|
||||
time, so that \var{self} knows the contained object can no longer be
|
||||
used. The \cfunction{Py_CLEAR()} macro performs the operations in a
|
||||
safe order.
|
||||
|
||||
Because the goal of \member{tp_clear} functions is to break reference
|
||||
cycles, it's not necessary to clear contained objects like Python strings
|
||||
or Python integers, which can't participate in reference cycles.
|
||||
On the other hand, it may be convenient to clear all contained Python
|
||||
objects, and write the type's \member{tp_dealloc} function to
|
||||
invoke \member{tp_clear}.

|

|
||||
This HOWTO is written by `Michael Foord
|
||||
<http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/index.shtml>`_.
|
||||
|
||||
**urllib2** is a `Python <http://www.python.org>`_ module for fetching URLs
|
||||
(Uniform Resource Locators). It offers a very simple interface, in the form of
|
||||
the *urlopen* function. This is capable of fetching URLs using a variety
|
||||
of different protocols. It also offers a slightly more complex
|
||||
interface for handling common situations - like basic authentication,
|
||||
cookies, proxies and so on. These are provided by objects called
|
||||
handlers and openers.
|
||||
|
||||
urllib2 supports fetching URLs for many "URL schemes" (identified by the string
|
||||
before the ":" in URL - for example "ftp" is the URL scheme of
|
||||
"ftp://python.org/") using their associated network protocols (e.g. FTP, HTTP).
|
||||
This tutorial focuses on the most common case, HTTP.
|
||||
|
||||
For straightforward situations *urlopen* is very easy to use. But as
|
||||
soon as you encounter errors or non-trivial cases when opening HTTP
|
||||
URLs, you will need some understanding of the HyperText Transfer
|
||||
Protocol. The most comprehensive and authoritative reference to HTTP
|
||||
is :RFC:`2616`. This is a technical document and not intended to be
|
||||
easy to read. This HOWTO aims to illustrate using *urllib2*, with
|
||||
enough detail about HTTP to help you through. It is not intended to
|
||||
replace the `urllib2 docs <http://docs.python.org/lib/module-urllib2.html>`_ ,
|
||||
but is supplementary to them.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Fetching URLs
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
The simplest way to use urllib2 is as follows : ::
|
||||
|
||||
import urllib2
|
||||
response = urllib2.urlopen('http://python.org/')
|
||||
html = response.read()
|
||||
|
||||
Many uses of urllib2 will be that simple (note that instead of an
|
||||
'http:' URL we could have used an URL starting with 'ftp:', 'file:',
|
||||
etc.). However, it's the purpose of this tutorial to explain the more
|
||||
complicated cases, concentrating on HTTP.
|
||||
|
||||
HTTP is based on requests and responses - the client makes requests
|
||||
and servers send responses. urllib2 mirrors this with a ``Request``
|
||||
object which represents the HTTP request you are making. In its
|
||||
simplest form you create a Request object that specifies the URL you
|
||||
want to fetch. Calling ``urlopen`` with this Request object returns a
|
||||
response object for the URL requested. This response is a file-like
|
||||
object, which means you can for example call .read() on the response :
|
||||
::
|
||||
|
||||
import urllib2
|
||||
|
||||
req = urllib2.Request('http://www.voidspace.org.uk')
|
||||
response = urllib2.urlopen(req)
|
||||
the_page = response.read()
|
||||
|
||||
Note that urllib2 makes use of the same Request interface to handle
|
||||
all URL schemes. For example, you can make an FTP request like so: ::
|
||||
|
||||
req = urllib2.Request('ftp://example.com/')
|
||||
|
||||
In the case of HTTP, there are two extra things that Request objects
|
||||
allow you to do: First, you can pass data to be sent to the server.
|
||||
Second, you can pass extra information ("metadata") *about* the data
|
||||
or the about request itself, to the server - this information is sent
|
||||
as HTTP "headers". Let's look at each of these in turn.
|
||||
|
||||
Data
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
Sometimes you want to send data to a URL (often the URL will refer to
|
||||
a CGI (Common Gateway Interface) script [#]_ or other web
|
||||
application). With HTTP, this is often done using what's known as a
|
||||
**POST** request. This is often what your browser does when you submit
|
||||
a HTML form that you filled in on the web. Not all POSTs have to come
|
||||
from forms: you can use a POST to transmit arbitrary data to your own
|
||||
application. In the common case of HTML forms, the data needs to be
|
||||
encoded in a standard way, and then passed to the Request object as
|
||||
the ``data`` argument. The encoding is done using a function from the
|
||||
``urllib`` library *not* from ``urllib2``. ::
|
||||
|
||||
import urllib
|
||||
import urllib2
|
||||
|
||||
url = 'http://www.someserver.com/cgi-bin/register.cgi'
|
||||
values = {'name' : 'Michael Foord',
|
||||
'location' : 'Northampton',
|
||||
'language' : 'Python' }
|
||||
|
||||
data = urllib.urlencode(values)
|
||||
req = urllib2.Request(url, data)
|
||||
response = urllib2.urlopen(req)
|
||||
the_page = response.read()
|
||||
|
||||
Note that other encodings are sometimes required (e.g. for file upload
|
||||
from HTML forms - see
|
||||
`HTML Specification, Form Submission <http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/interact/forms.html#h-17.13>`_
|
||||
for more details).
|
||||
|
||||
If you do not pass the ``data`` argument, urllib2 uses a **GET**
|
||||
request. One way in which GET and POST requests differ is that POST
|
||||
requests often have "side-effects": they change the state of the
|
||||
system in some way (for example by placing an order with the website
|
||||
for a hundredweight of tinned spam to be delivered to your door).
|
||||
Though the HTTP standard makes it clear that POSTs are intended to
|
||||
*always* cause side-effects, and GET requests *never* to cause
|
||||
side-effects, nothing prevents a GET request from having side-effects,
|
||||
nor a POST requests from having no side-effects. Data can also be
|
||||
passed in an HTTP GET request by encoding it in the URL itself.
|
||||
|
||||
This is done as follows::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> import urllib2
|
||||
>>> import urllib
|
||||
>>> data = {}
|
||||
>>> data['name'] = 'Somebody Here'
|
||||
>>> data['location'] = 'Northampton'
|
||||
>>> data['language'] = 'Python'
|
||||
>>> url_values = urllib.urlencode(data)
|
||||
>>> print url_values
|
||||
name=Somebody+Here&language=Python&location=Northampton
|
||||
>>> url = 'http://www.example.com/example.cgi'
|
||||
>>> full_url = url + '?' + url_values
|
||||
>>> data = urllib2.open(full_url)
|
||||
|
||||
Notice that the full URL is created by adding a ``?`` to the URL, followed by
|
||||
the encoded values.
|
||||
|
||||
Headers
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
We'll discuss here one particular HTTP header, to illustrate how to
|
||||
add headers to your HTTP request.
|
||||
|
||||
Some websites [#]_ dislike being browsed by programs, or send
|
||||
different versions to different browsers [#]_ . By default urllib2
|
||||
identifies itself as ``Python-urllib/x.y`` (where ``x`` and ``y`` are
|
||||
the major and minor version numbers of the Python release,
|
||||
e.g. ``Python-urllib/2.5``), which may confuse the site, or just plain
|
||||
not work. The way a browser identifies itself is through the
|
||||
``User-Agent`` header [#]_. When you create a Request object you can
|
||||
pass a dictionary of headers in. The following example makes the same
|
||||
request as above, but identifies itself as a version of Internet
|
||||
Explorer [#]_. ::
|
||||
|
||||
import urllib
|
||||
import urllib2
|
||||
|
||||
url = 'http://www.someserver.com/cgi-bin/register.cgi'
|
||||
user_agent = 'Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT)'
|
||||
values = {'name' : 'Michael Foord',
|
||||
'location' : 'Northampton',
|
||||
'language' : 'Python' }
|
||||
headers = { 'User-Agent' : user_agent }
|
||||
|
||||
data = urllib.urlencode(values)
|
||||
req = urllib2.Request(url, data, headers)
|
||||
response = urllib2.urlopen(req)
|
||||
the_page = response.read()
|
||||
|
||||
The response also has two useful methods. See the section on `info and
|
||||
geturl`_ which comes after we have a look at what happens when things
|
||||
go wrong.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Handling Exceptions
|
||||
===================
|
||||
|
||||
*urlopen* raises ``URLError`` when it cannot handle a response (though
|
||||
as usual with Python APIs, builtin exceptions such as ValueError,
|
||||
TypeError etc. may also be raised).
|
||||
|
||||
``HTTPError`` is the subclass of ``URLError`` raised in the specific
|
||||
case of HTTP URLs.
|
||||
|
||||
URLError
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
Often, URLError is raised because there is no network connection (no
|
||||
route to the specified server), or the specified server doesn't exist.
|
||||
In this case, the exception raised will have a 'reason' attribute,
|
||||
which is a tuple containing an error code and a text error message.
|
||||
|
||||
e.g. ::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> req = urllib2.Request('http://www.pretend_server.org')
|
||||
>>> try: urllib2.urlopen(req)
|
||||
>>> except URLError, e:
|
||||
>>> print e.reason
|
||||
>>>
|
||||
(4, 'getaddrinfo failed')
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
HTTPError
|
||||
---------
|
||||
|
||||
Every HTTP response from the server contains a numeric "status
|
||||
code". Sometimes the status code indicates that the server is unable
|
||||
to fulfil the request. The default handlers will handle some of these
|
||||
responses for you (for example, if the response is a "redirection"
|
||||
that requests the client fetch the document from a different URL,
|
||||
urllib2 will handle that for you). For those it can't handle, urlopen
|
||||
will raise an ``HTTPError``. Typical errors include '404' (page not
|
||||
found), '403' (request forbidden), and '401' (authentication
|
||||
required).
|
||||
|
||||
See section 10 of RFC 2616 for a reference on all the HTTP error
|
||||
codes.
|
||||
|
||||
The ``HTTPError`` instance raised will have an integer 'code'
|
||||
attribute, which corresponds to the error sent by the server.
|
||||
|
||||
Error Codes
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Because the default handlers handle redirects (codes in the 300
|
||||
range), and codes in the 100-299 range indicate success, you will
|
||||
usually only see error codes in the 400-599 range.
|
||||
|
||||
``BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler.responses`` is a useful
|
||||
dictionary of response codes in that shows all the response codes used
|
||||
by RFC 2616. The dictionary is reproduced here for convenience ::
|
||||
|
||||
# Table mapping response codes to messages; entries have the
|
||||
# form {code: (shortmessage, longmessage)}.
|
||||
responses = {

'The gateway server did not receive a timely response'),
|
||||
505: ('HTTP Version Not Supported', 'Cannot fulfill request.'),
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
When an error is raised the server responds by returning an HTTP error
|
||||
code *and* an error page. You can use the ``HTTPError`` instance as a
|
||||
response on the page returned. This means that as well as the code
|
||||
attribute, it also has read, geturl, and info, methods. ::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> req = urllib2.Request('http://www.python.org/fish.html')
|
||||
>>> try:
|
||||
>>> urllib2.urlopen(req)
|
||||
>>> except URLError, e:
|
||||
>>> print e.code
|
||||
>>> print e.read()
|
||||
>>>

Wrapping it Up
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
So if you want to be prepared for ``HTTPError`` *or* ``URLError``
|
||||
there are two basic approaches. I prefer the second approach.
|
||||
|
||||
Number 1
|
||||
~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
::
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
from urllib2 import Request, urlopen, URLError, HTTPError
|
||||
req = Request(someurl)
|
||||
try:
|
||||
response = urlopen(req)
|
||||
except HTTPError, e:
|
||||
print 'The server couldn\'t fulfill the request.'
|
||||
print 'Error code: ', e.code
|
||||
except URLError, e:
|
||||
print 'We failed to reach a server.'
|
||||
print 'Reason: ', e.reason
|
||||
else:
|
||||
# everything is fine
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
The ``except HTTPError`` *must* come first, otherwise ``except URLError``
|
||||
will *also* catch an ``HTTPError``.
|
||||
|
||||
Number 2
|
||||
~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
::
|
||||
|
||||
from urllib2 import Request, urlopen, URLError
|
||||
req = Request(someurl)
|
||||
try:
|
||||
response = urlopen(req)
|
||||
except URLError, e:
|
||||
if hasattr(e, 'reason'):
|
||||
print 'We failed to reach a server.'
|
||||
print 'Reason: ', e.reason
|
||||
elif hasattr(e, 'code'):
|
||||
print 'The server couldn\'t fulfill the request.'
|
||||
print 'Error code: ', e.code
|
||||
else:
|
||||
# everything is fine
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
info and geturl
|
||||
===============
|
||||
|
||||
The response returned by urlopen (or the ``HTTPError`` instance) has
|
||||
two useful methods ``info`` and ``geturl``.
|
||||
|
||||
**geturl** - this returns the real URL of the page fetched. This is
|
||||
useful because ``urlopen`` (or the opener object used) may have
|
||||
followed a redirect. The URL of the page fetched may not be the same
|
||||
as the URL requested.
|
||||
|
||||
**info** - this returns a dictionary-like object that describes the
|
||||
page fetched, particularly the headers sent by the server. It is
|
||||
currently an ``httplib.HTTPMessage`` instance.
|
||||
|
||||
Typical headers include 'Content-length', 'Content-type', and so
|
||||
on. See the
|
||||
`Quick Reference to HTTP Headers <http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/http.html>`_
|
||||
for a useful listing of HTTP headers with brief explanations of their meaning
|
||||
and use.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Openers and Handlers
|
||||
====================
|
||||
|
||||
When you fetch a URL you use an opener (an instance of the perhaps
|
||||
confusingly-named ``urllib2.OpenerDirector``). Normally we have been using
|
||||
the default opener - via ``urlopen`` - but you can create custom
|
||||
openers. Openers use handlers. All the "heavy lifting" is done by the
|
||||
handlers. Each handler knows how to open URLs for a particular URL
|
||||
scheme (http, ftp, etc.), or how to handle an aspect of URL opening,
|
||||
for example HTTP redirections or HTTP cookies.
|
||||
|
||||
You will want to create openers if you want to fetch URLs with
|
||||
specific handlers installed, for example to get an opener that handles
|
||||
cookies, or to get an opener that does not handle redirections.
|
||||
|
||||
To create an opener, instantiate an OpenerDirector, and then call
|
||||
.add_handler(some_handler_instance) repeatedly.
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, you can use ``build_opener``, which is a convenience
|
||||
function for creating opener objects with a single function call.
|
||||
``build_opener`` adds several handlers by default, but provides a
|
||||
quick way to add more and/or override the default handlers.
|
||||
|
||||
Other sorts of handlers you might want to can handle proxies,
|
||||
authentication, and other common but slightly specialised
|
||||
situations.
|
||||
|
||||
``install_opener`` can be used to make an ``opener`` object the
|
||||
(global) default opener. This means that calls to ``urlopen`` will use
|
||||
the opener you have installed.
|
||||
|
||||
Opener objects have an ``open`` method, which can be called directly
|
||||
to fetch urls in the same way as the ``urlopen`` function: there's no
|
||||
need to call ``install_opener``, except as a convenience.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Basic Authentication
|
||||
====================
|
||||
|
||||
To illustrate creating and installing a handler we will use the
|
||||
``HTTPBasicAuthHandler``. For a more detailed discussion of this
|
||||
subject - including an explanation of how Basic Authentication works -
|
||||
see the `Basic Authentication Tutorial <http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/articles/authentication.shtml>`_.
|
||||
|
||||
When authentication is required, the server sends a header (as well as
|
||||
the 401 error code) requesting authentication. This specifies the
|
||||
authentication scheme and a 'realm'. The header looks like :
|
||||
``Www-authenticate: SCHEME realm="REALM"``.
|
||||
|
||||
e.g. ::
|
||||
|
||||
Www-authenticate: Basic realm="cPanel Users"
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The client should then retry the request with the appropriate name and
|
||||
password for the realm included as a header in the request. This is
|
||||
'basic authentication'. In order to simplify this process we can
|
||||
create an instance of ``HTTPBasicAuthHandler`` and an opener to use
|
||||
this handler.
|
||||
|
||||
The ``HTTPBasicAuthHandler`` uses an object called a password manager
|
||||
to handle the mapping of URLs and realms to passwords and
|
||||
usernames. If you know what the realm is (from the authentication
|
||||
header sent by the server), then you can use a
|
||||
``HTTPPasswordMgr``. Frequently one doesn't care what the realm is. In
|
||||
that case, it is convenient to use
|
||||
``HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm``. This allows you to specify a
|
||||
default username and password for a URL. This will be supplied in the
|
||||
absence of you providing an alternative combination for a specific
|
||||
realm. We indicate this by providing ``None`` as the realm argument to
|
||||
the ``add_password`` method.
|
||||
|
||||
The top-level URL is the first URL that requires authentication. URLs
|
||||
"deeper" than the URL you pass to .add_password() will also match. ::
|
||||
|
||||
# create a password manager
|
||||
password_mgr = urllib2.HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm()
|
||||
|
||||
# Add the username and password.
|
||||
# If we knew the realm, we could use it instead of ``None``.
|
||||
top_level_url = "http://example.com/foo/"
|
||||
password_mgr.add_password(None, top_level_url, username, password)
|
||||
|
||||
handler = urllib2.HTTPBasicAuthHandler(password_mgr)
|
||||
|
||||
# create "opener" (OpenerDirector instance)
|
||||
opener = urllib2.build_opener(handler)
|
||||
|
||||
# use the opener to fetch a URL
|
||||
opener.open(a_url)
|
||||
|
||||
# Install the opener.
|
||||
# Now all calls to urllib2.urlopen use our opener.
|
||||
urllib2.install_opener(opener)
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
In the above example we only supplied our ``HHTPBasicAuthHandler``
|
||||
to ``build_opener``. By default openers have the handlers for
|
||||
normal situations - ``ProxyHandler``, ``UnknownHandler``,
|
||||
``HTTPHandler``, ``HTTPDefaultErrorHandler``,
|
||||
``HTTPRedirectHandler``, ``FTPHandler``, ``FileHandler``,
|
||||
``HTTPErrorProcessor``.
|
||||
|
||||
top_level_url is in fact *either* a full URL (including the 'http:'
|
||||
scheme component and the hostname and optionally the port number)
|
||||
e.g. "http://example.com/" *or* an "authority" (i.e. the hostname,
|
||||
optionally including the port number) e.g. "example.com" or
|
||||
"example.com:8080" (the latter example includes a port number). The
|
||||
authority, if present, must NOT contain the "userinfo" component - for
|
||||
example "joe@password:example.com" is not correct.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Proxies
|
||||
=======
|
||||
|
||||
**urllib2** will auto-detect your proxy settings and use those. This
|
||||
is through the ``ProxyHandler`` which is part of the normal handler
|
||||
chain. Normally that's a good thing, but there are occasions when it
|
||||
may not be helpful [#]_. One way to do this is to setup our own
|
||||
``ProxyHandler``, with no proxies defined. This is done using similar
|
||||
steps to setting up a `Basic Authentication`_ handler : ::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> proxy_support = urllib2.ProxyHandler({})
|
||||
>>> opener = urllib2.build_opener(proxy_support)
|
||||
>>> urllib2.install_opener(opener)
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
Currently ``urllib2`` *does not* support fetching of ``https``
|
||||
locations through a proxy. This can be a problem.
|
||||
|
||||
Sockets and Layers
|
||||
==================
|
||||
|
||||
The Python support for fetching resources from the web is
|
||||
layered. urllib2 uses the httplib library, which in turn uses the
|
||||
socket library.
|
||||
|
||||
As of Python 2.3 you can specify how long a socket should wait for a
|
||||
response before timing out. This can be useful in applications which
|
||||
have to fetch web pages. By default the socket module has *no timeout*
|
||||
and can hang. Currently, the socket timeout is not exposed at the
|
||||
httplib or urllib2 levels. However, you can set the default timeout
|
||||
globally for all sockets using : ::
|
||||
|
||||
import socket
|
||||
import urllib2
|
||||
|
||||
# timeout in seconds
|
||||
timeout = 10
|
||||
socket.setdefaulttimeout(timeout)
|
||||
|
||||
# this call to urllib2.urlopen now uses the default timeout
|
||||
# we have set in the socket module
|
||||
req = urllib2.Request('http://www.voidspace.org.uk')
|
||||
response = urllib2.urlopen(req)
|
||||

\subsubsection{data types}
|

ctypes defines a lot of C compatible datatypes, and also allows to
|
||||
define your own types. Among other things, a ctypes type instance
|
||||
holds a memory block that contains C compatible data.
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{classdesc}{_ctypes._CData}{}
|
||||
This non-public class is the base class of all ctypes data types. It
|
||||
is mentioned here because it contains the common methods of the ctypes
|
||||
data types.

||||
\end{classdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
Common methods of ctypes data types, these are all class methods (to
|

be exact, they are methods of the metaclass):

\begin{methoddesc}{from_address}{address}
|
||||
This method returns a ctypes type instance using the memory specified
|
||||
by \code{address}.

\begin{methoddesc}{from_param}{obj}

\begin{methoddesc}{in_dll}{name, library}
|

This method returns a ctypes type instance exported by a shared

||||
library. \var{name} is the name of the symbol that exports the data,
|

\var{library} is the loaded shared library.

\index{msi}
|
||||
|
||||
\versionadded{2.5}
|
||||
|
||||
The \module{msilib} supports the creation of Microsoft Installer
|
||||
(\code{.msi}) files. Because these files often contain an embedded
|
||||
``cabinet'' file (\code{.cab}), it also exposes an API to create
|
||||
CAB files. Support for reading \code{.cab} files is currently not
|
||||
implemented; read support for the \code{.msi} database is possible.
|
||||
|
||||
This package aims to provide complete access to all tables in an
|
||||
\code{.msi} file, therefore, it is a fairly low-level API. Two
|
||||
primary applications of this package are the \module{distutils}
|
||||
command \code{bdist_msi}, and the creation of Python installer
|
||||
package itself (although that currently uses a different version
|
||||
of \code{msilib}).
|
||||
|
||||
The package contents can be roughly split into four parts:
|
||||
low-level CAB routines, low-level MSI routines, higher-level
|
||||
MSI routines, and standard table structures.
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{funcdesc}{FCICreate}{cabname, files}
|
||||
Create a new CAB file named \var{cabname}. \var{files} must
|
||||
be a list of tuples, each containing the name of the file on
|
||||
disk, and the name of the file inside the CAB file.
|
||||
|
||||
The files are added to the CAB file in the order they appear
|
||||
in the list. All files are added into a single CAB file,
|
||||
using the MSZIP compression algorithm.
|
||||
|
||||
Callbacks to Python for the various steps of MSI creation
|
||||
are currently not exposed.
|
||||
\end{funcdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{funcdesc}{UUIDCreate}{}
|
||||
Return the string representation of a new unique identifier.
|
||||
This wraps the Windows API functions \cfunction{UuidCreate} and
|
||||
\cfunction{UuidToString}.
|
||||
\end{funcdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{funcdesc}{OpenDatabase}{path, persist}
|
||||
Return a new database object by calling MsiOpenDatabase.
|
||||
\var{path} is the file name of the
|
||||
MSI file; \var{persist} can be one of the constants
|
||||
\code{MSIDBOPEN_CREATEDIRECT}, \code{MSIDBOPEN_CREATE},
|
||||
\code{MSIDBOPEN_DIRECT}, \code{MSIDBOPEN_READONLY}, or
|
||||
\code{MSIDBOPEN_TRANSACT}, and may include the flag
|
||||
\code{MSIDBOPEN_PATCHFILE}. See the Microsoft documentation for
|
||||
the meaning of these flags; depending on the flags,
|
||||
an existing database is opened, or a new one created.
|
||||
\end{funcdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{funcdesc}{CreateRecord}{count}
|
||||
Return a new record object by calling \cfunction{MSICreateRecord}.
|
||||
\var{count} is the number of fields of the record.
|
||||
\end{funcdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{funcdesc}{init_database}{name, schema, ProductName, ProductCode, ProductVersion, Manufacturer}
|
||||
Create and return a new database \var{name}, initialize it
|
||||
with \var{schema}, and set the properties \var{ProductName},
|
||||
\var{ProductCode}, \var{ProductVersion}, and \var{Manufacturer}.
|
||||
|
||||
\var{schema} must be a module object containing \code{tables} and
|
||||
\code{_Validation_records} attributes; typically,
|
||||
\module{msilib.schema} should be used.
|
||||
|
||||
The database will contain just the schema and the validation
|
||||
records when this function returns.
|
||||
\end{funcdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{funcdesc}{add_data}{database, records}
|
||||
Add all \var{records} to \var{database}. \var{records} should
|
||||
be a list of tuples, each one containing all fields of a record
|
||||
according to the schema of the table. For optional fields,
|
||||
\code{None} can be passed.
|
||||
|
||||
Field values can be int or long numbers, strings, or instances
|
||||
of the Binary class.

||||
\end{funcdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{classdesc}{Binary}{filename}
|

Represents entries in the Binary table; inserting such

an object using \function{add_data} reads the file named
|

\var{filename} into the table.

\end{classdesc}
|

|
||||
\begin{funcdesc}{add_tables}{database, module}
|
||||
Add all table content from \var{module} to \var{database}.
|
||||
\var{module} must contain an attribute \var{tables}
|
||||
listing all tables for which content should be added,
|
||||
and one attribute per table that has the actual content.
|
||||
|
||||
This is typically used to install the sequence tables.
|
||||
\end{funcdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{funcdesc}{add_stream}{database, name, path}

Add the file \var{path} into the \code{_Stream} table

\subsection{CAB Objects\label{cab}}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{classdesc}{CAB}{name}
|
||||
The class \class{CAB} represents a CAB file. During MSI construction,
|
||||
files will be added simultaneously to the \code{Files} table, and
|
||||
to a CAB file. Then, when all files have been added, the CAB file
|
||||
can be written, then added to the MSI file.
|
||||
|
||||
\var{name} is the name of the CAB file in the MSI file.
|
||||
\end{classdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}[CAB]{append}{full, logical}
|
||||
Add the file with the pathname \var{full} to the CAB file,
|
||||
under the name \var{logical}. If there is already a file
|
||||
named \var{logical}, a new file name is created.
|
||||
|
||||
Return the index of the file in the CAB file, and the
|
||||
new name of the file inside the CAB file.
|
||||
\end{methoddesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}[CAB]{append}{database}
|
||||
Generate a CAB file, add it as a stream to the MSI file,
|
||||
put it into the \code{Media} table, and remove the generated
|
||||
file from the disk.
|
||||
\end{methoddesc}
|
||||
|

\subsection{Directory Objects\label{msi-directory}}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{classdesc}{Directory}{database, cab, basedir, physical,
|
||||
logical, default, component, \optional{componentflags}}
|
||||
Create a new directory in the Directory table. There is a current
|
||||
component at each point in time for the directory, which is either
|
||||
explicitly created through \method{start_component}, or implicitly when files
|
||||
are added for the first time. Files are added into the current
|
||||
component, and into the cab file. To create a directory, a base
|
||||
directory object needs to be specified (can be \code{None}), the path to
|
||||
the physical directory, and a logical directory name. \var{default}
|
||||
specifies the DefaultDir slot in the directory table. \var{componentflags}
|
||||
specifies the default flags that new components get.
|
||||
\end{classdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}[Directory]{start_component}{\optional{component\optional{,
|
||||
feature\optional{, flags\optional{, keyfile\optional{, uuid}}}}}}
|
||||
Add an entry to the Component table, and make this component the
|
||||
current component for this directory. If no component name is given, the
|
||||
directory name is used. If no \var{feature} is given, the current feature
|
||||
is used. If no \var{flags} are given, the directory's default flags are
|
||||
used. If no \var{keyfile} is given, the KeyPath is left null in the
|
||||
Component table.
|
||||
\end{methoddesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}[Directory]{add_file}{file\optional{, src\optional{,
|
||||
version\optional{, language}}}}
|
||||
Add a file to the current component of the directory, starting a new
|
||||
one if there is no current component. By default, the file name
|
||||
in the source and the file table will be identical. If the \var{src} file
|
||||
is specified, it is interpreted relative to the current
|
||||
directory. Optionally, a \var{version} and a \var{language} can be specified for
|
||||
the entry in the File table.
|
||||
\end{methoddesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}[Directory]{glob}{pattern\optional{, exclude}}
|
||||
Add a list of files to the current component as specified in the glob
|

\subsubsection{Creating the parser\label{optparse-creating-parser}}
|
||||
|
||||
The first step in using \module{optparse} is to create an OptionParser instance:
|
||||
\begin{verbatim}
|
||||
parser = OptionParser(...)
|
||||
\end{verbatim}
|
||||
|
||||
The OptionParser constructor has no required arguments, but a number of
|
||||
optional keyword arguments. You should always pass them as keyword
|
||||
arguments, i.e. do not rely on the order in which the arguments are
|
||||
declared.
|
||||
\begin{quote}
|
||||
\begin{description}
|
||||
\item[\code{usage} (default: \code{"{\%}prog {[}options]"})]
|
||||
The usage summary to print when your program is run incorrectly or
|
||||
with a help option. When \module{optparse} prints the usage string, it expands
|
||||
\code{{\%}prog} to \code{os.path.basename(sys.argv{[}0])} (or to \code{prog} if
|
||||
you passed that keyword argument). To suppress a usage message,
|
||||
pass the special value \code{optparse.SUPPRESS{\_}USAGE}.
|
||||
\item[\code{option{\_}list} (default: \code{{[}]})]
|
||||
A list of Option objects to populate the parser with. The options
|
||||
in \code{option{\_}list} are added after any options in
|
||||
\code{standard{\_}option{\_}list} (a class attribute that may be set by
|
||||
OptionParser subclasses), but before any version or help options.
|
||||
Deprecated; use \method{add{\_}option()} after creating the parser instead.
|
||||
\item[\code{option{\_}class} (default: optparse.Option)]
|
||||
Class to use when adding options to the parser in \method{add{\_}option()}.
|
||||
\item[\code{version} (default: \code{None})]
|
||||
A version string to print when the user supplies a version option.
|
||||
If you supply a true value for \code{version}, \module{optparse} automatically adds
|
||||
a version option with the single option string \code{"-{}-version"}. The
|
||||
substring \code{"{\%}prog"} is expanded the same as for \code{usage}.
|
||||
\item[\code{conflict{\_}handler} (default: \code{"error"})]
|
||||
Specifies what to do when options with conflicting option strings
|
||||
are added to the parser; see section~\ref{optparse-conflicts-between-options}, Conflicts between options.
|
||||
\item[\code{description} (default: \code{None})]
|
||||
A paragraph of text giving a brief overview of your program. \module{optparse}
|
||||
reformats this paragraph to fit the current terminal width and
|
||||
prints it when the user requests help (after \code{usage}, but before
|
||||
the list of options).
|
||||
\item[\code{formatter} (default: a new IndentedHelpFormatter)]
|
||||
An instance of optparse.HelpFormatter that will be used for
|
||||
printing help text. \module{optparse} provides two concrete classes for this
|
||||
purpose: IndentedHelpFormatter and TitledHelpFormatter.
|
||||
\item[\code{add{\_}help{\_}option} (default: \code{True})]
|
||||
If true, \module{optparse} will add a help option (with option strings \code{"-h"}
|
||||
and \code{"-{}-help"}) to the parser.
|
||||
\item[\code{prog}]
|
||||
The string to use when expanding \code{"{\%}prog"} in \code{usage} and
|
||||
\code{version} instead of \code{os.path.basename(sys.argv{[}0])}.

||||

There are several ways to populate the parser with options. The

at least one overall option string.
|
||||
|
||||
The canonical way to create an Option instance is by calling
|
||||
\function{make{\_}option()}, so that is what will be shown here. However, the
|
||||
most common and convenient way is to use \code{parser.add{\_}option()}. Note

signatures:
|

The canonical way to create an Option instance is with the
|
||||
\method{add{\_}option()} method of \class{OptionParser}:
|

||||
make_option(opt_str, ..., attr=value, ...)
|

parser.add_option(opt_str, ..., attr=value, ...)

The \code{attr=value} keyword arguments define option attributes,
|

i.e. attributes of the Option object. The most important option
|

attribute is \member{action}, and it largely determines what other attributes
|

are relevant or required. If you pass irrelevant option attributes, or

fail to pass required ones, \module{optparse} raises an OptionError exception

|
|||
text on the command line is stored in the destination (or passed to the
|

callback) as-is.
|
||||
|
||||
Integer arguments are passed to \code{int()} to convert them to Python
|
||||
integers. If \code{int()} fails, so will \module{optparse}, although with a more
|
||||
useful error message. (Internally, \module{optparse} raises
|
||||
\exception{OptionValueError}; OptionParser catches this exception higher
|
||||
up and terminates your program with a useful error message.)
|
||||
Integer arguments (type \code{int} or \code{long}) are parsed as follows:
|
||||
\begin{quote}
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item {}
|
||||
if the number starts with \code{0x}, it is parsed as a hexadecimal number
|
||||
|
||||
Likewise, \code{float} arguments are passed to \code{float()} for conversion,
|
||||
\code{long} arguments to \code{long()}, and \code{complex} arguments to
|
||||
\code{complex()}. Apart from that, they are handled identically to integer
|
||||
arguments.
|
||||
\item {}
|
||||
if the number starts with \code{0}, it is parsed as an octal number
|
||||
|

\item {}

if the number starts with \code{0b}, is is parsed as a binary number
|
||||
|

\item {}
|
||||
otherwise, the number is parsed as a decimal number
|
||||
|
||||
\end{itemize}
|
||||
\end{quote}
|
||||
|
||||
The conversion is done by calling either \code{int()} or \code{long()} with
|
||||
the appropriate base (2, 8, 10, or 16). If this fails, so will \module{optparse},
|
||||
although with a more useful error message.

\code{float} and \code{complex} option arguments are converted directly with

\code{choice} options are a subtype of \code{string} options. The \code{choices}

\subsubsection{Parsing arguments\label{optparse-parsing-arguments}}
|

|
||||
The whole point of creating and populating an OptionParser is to call
|
||||
its \method{parse{\_}args()} method:
|
||||
\begin{verbatim}
|
||||
(options, args) = parser.parse_args(args=None, options=None)
|
||||
\end{verbatim}
|
||||
|
||||
where the input parameters are
|
||||
\begin{description}
|
||||
\item[\code{args}]
|
||||
the list of arguments to process (\code{sys.argv{[}1:]} by default)
|
||||
\item[\code{options}]
|
||||
object to store option arguments in (a new instance of
|
||||
optparse.Values by default)
|
||||
\end{description}
|
||||
|
||||
and the return values are
|
||||
\begin{description}
|
||||
\item[\code{options}]
|
||||
the same object as was passed in as \code{options}, or the new
|
||||
optparse.Values instance created by \module{optparse}
|
||||
\item[\code{args}]
|
||||
the leftover positional arguments after all options have been
|
||||
processed
|
||||
\end{description}
|
||||
|
||||
The most common usage is to supply neither keyword argument. If you
|
||||
supply a \code{values} object, it will be repeatedly modified with a
|
||||
\code{setattr()} call for every option argument written to an option
|
||||
destination, and finally returned by \method{parse{\_}args()}.
|
||||
|
||||
If \method{parse{\_}args()} encounters any errors in the argument list, it calls
|
||||
the OptionParser's \method{error()} method with an appropriate end-user error
|
||||
message. This ultimately terminates your process with an exit status of
|
||||
2 (the traditional \UNIX{} exit status for command-line errors).

\subsubsection{Cleanup\label{optparse-cleanup}}
|

|

OptionParser instances have several cyclic references. This should not

be a problem for Python's garbage collector, but you may wish to break
|

the cyclic references explicitly by calling \code{destroy()} on your
|

long-running applications where large object graphs are reachable from

\code{enable{\_}interspersed{\_}args()}, \code{disable{\_}interspersed{\_}args()}
|

|
||||
Enable/disable positional arguments interspersed with options, similar
|
||||
to GNU getopt (enabled by default). For example, if \code{"-a"} and
|
||||
\code{"-b"} are both simple options that take no arguments, \module{optparse}
|
||||
normally accepts this syntax:
|
||||
\begin{verbatim}
|
||||
prog -a arg1 -b arg2
|
||||
\end{verbatim}
|
||||
|
||||
and treats it as equivalent to
|
||||
\begin{verbatim}
|
||||
prog -a -b arg1 arg2
|
||||
\end{verbatim}
|
||||
|
||||
To disable this feature, call \code{disable{\_}interspersed{\_}args()}. This
|
||||
restores traditional \UNIX{} syntax, where option parsing stops with the
|
||||
first non-option argument.
|
||||
|
||||
\item {}
|
||||
\code{set{\_}defaults(dest=value, ...)}
|
||||
|
||||
Set default values for several option destinations at once. Using
|
||||
\method{set{\_}defaults()} is the preferred way to set default values for
|
||||
options, since multiple options can share the same destination. For
|
||||
example, if several ``mode'' options all set the same destination, any
|
||||
one of them can set the default, and the last one wins:
|
||||
\begin{verbatim}
|
||||
parser.add_option("--advanced", action="store_const",
|
||||
dest="mode", const="advanced",
|
||||
default="novice") # overridden below
|
||||
parser.add_option("--novice", action="store_const",
|
||||
dest="mode", const="novice",
|
||||
default="advanced") # overrides above setting
|
||||
\end{verbatim}
|
||||
|
||||
To avoid this confusion, use \method{set{\_}defaults()}:
|
||||
\begin{verbatim}
|
||||
parser.set_defaults(mode="advanced")
|
||||
parser.add_option("--advanced", action="store_const",
|
||||
dest="mode", const="advanced")
|
||||
parser.add_option("--novice", action="store_const",

\subsection{Module functions and constants\label{sqlite3-Module-Contents}}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{datadesc}{PARSE_DECLTYPES}
|
||||
This constant is meant to be used with the \var{detect_types} parameter of the
|
||||
\function{connect} function.
|
||||
|
||||
Setting it makes the \module{sqlite3} module parse the declared type for each column it
|
||||
returns. It will parse out the first word of the declared type, i. e. for
|
||||
"integer primary key", it will parse out "integer". Then for that column, it
|
||||
will look into the converters dictionary and use the converter function
|
||||
registered for that type there. Converter names are case-sensitive!
|
||||
\end{datadesc}
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{datadesc}{PARSE_COLNAMES}
|
||||
This constant is meant to be used with the \var{detect_types} parameter of the
|
||||
\function{connect} function.
|
||||
|
||||
Setting this makes the SQLite interface parse the column name for each column
|
||||
it returns. It will look for a string formed [mytype] in there, and then
|
||||
decide that 'mytype' is the type of the column. It will try to find an entry of
|
||||
'mytype' in the converters dictionary and then use the converter function found
|
||||
there to return the value. The column name found in \member{cursor.description} is only
|
||||
the first word of the column name, i. e. if you use something like
|
||||
\code{'as "x [datetime]"'} in your SQL, then we will parse out everything until the
|
||||
first blank for the column name: the column name would simply be "x".
|
||||
\end{datadesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{funcdesc}{connect}{database\optional{, timeout, isolation_level, detect_types, factory}}
|
||||
Opens a connection to the SQLite database file \var{database}. You can use
|
||||
\code{":memory:"} to open a database connection to a database that resides in
|
||||
RAM instead of on disk.
|
||||
|
||||
When a database is accessed by multiple connections, and one of the processes
|
||||
modifies the database, the SQLite database is locked until that transaction is
|
||||
committed. The \var{timeout} parameter specifies how long the connection should
|
||||
wait for the lock to go away until raising an exception. The default for the
|
||||
timeout parameter is 5.0 (five seconds).
|
||||
|
||||
For the \var{isolation_level} parameter, please see \member{isolation_level}
|
||||
\ref{sqlite3-Connection-IsolationLevel} property of \class{Connection} objects.
|
||||
|
||||
SQLite natively supports only the types TEXT, INTEGER, FLOAT, BLOB and NULL. If
|
||||
you want to use other types, like you have to add support for them yourself.
|
||||
The \var{detect_types} parameter and the using custom \strong{converters} registered with
|
||||
the module-level \function{register_converter} function allow you to easily do that.
|
||||
|
||||
\var{detect_types} defaults to 0 (i. e. off, no type detection), you can set it
|
||||
to any combination of \constant{PARSE_DECLTYPES} and \constant{PARSE_COLNAMES} to turn type
|
||||
detection on.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the \module{sqlite3} module uses its \class{Connection} class for the
|
||||
connect call. You can, however, subclass the \class{Connection} class and make
|
||||
\function{connect} use your class instead by providing your class for the
|
||||
\var{factory} parameter.
|
||||
|
||||
Consult the section \ref{sqlite3-Types} of this manual for details.
|
||||
|
||||
The \module{sqlite3} module internally uses a statement cache to avoid SQL parsing
|
||||
overhead. If you want to explicitly set the number of statements that are
|
||||
cached for the connection, you can set the \var{cached_statements} parameter.
|
||||
The currently implemented default is to cache 100 statements.
|
||||
\end{funcdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{funcdesc}{register_converter}{typename, callable}
|
||||
Registers a callable to convert a bytestring from the database into a custom
|
||||
Python type. The callable will be invoked for all database values that are of
|
||||
the type \var{typename}. Confer the parameter \var{detect_types} of the
|
||||
\function{connect} function for how the type detection works. Note that the case of
|
||||
\var{typename} and the name of the type in your query must match!
|
||||
\end{funcdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{funcdesc}{register_adapter}{type, callable}
|
||||
Registers a callable to convert the custom Python type \var{type} into one of
|
||||
SQLite's supported types. The callable \var{callable} accepts as single
|
||||
parameter the Python value, and must return a value of the following types:
|
||||
int, long, float, str (UTF-8 encoded), unicode or buffer.
|
||||
\end{funcdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{funcdesc}{complete_statement}{sql}
|
||||
Returns \constant{True} if the string \var{sql} one or more complete SQL
|
||||
statements terminated by semicolons. It does not verify if the SQL is
|
||||
syntactically correct, only if there are no unclosed string literals and if the
|
||||
statement is terminated by a semicolon.
|
||||
|
||||
This can be used to build a shell for SQLite, like in the following example:
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/complete_statement.py}

\end{funcdesc}
|
||||

\subsection{Connection Objects \label{sqlite3-Connection-Objects}}
|
||||
|
||||
A \class{Connection} instance has the following attributes and methods:
|
||||
|
||||
\label{sqlite3-Connection-IsolationLevel}
|
||||
\begin{memberdesc}{isolation_level}
|
||||
Get or set the current isolation level. None for autocommit mode or one of
|
||||
"DEFERRED", "IMMEDIATE" or "EXLUSIVE". See Controlling Transactions
|
||||
\ref{sqlite3-Controlling-Transactions} for a more detailed explanation.
|
||||
\end{memberdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}{cursor}{\optional{cursorClass}}
|
||||
The cursor method accepts a single optional parameter \var{cursorClass}.
|
||||
This is a custom cursor class which must extend \class{sqlite3.Cursor}.
|
||||
\end{methoddesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}{execute}{sql, \optional{parameters}}
|
||||
This is a nonstandard shortcut that creates an intermediate cursor object by
|
||||
calling the cursor method, then calls the cursor's \method{execute} method with the
|
||||
parameters given.
|
||||
\end{methoddesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}{executemany}{sql, \optional{parameters}}
|
||||
This is a nonstandard shortcut that creates an intermediate cursor object by
|
||||
calling the cursor method, then calls the cursor's \method{executemany} method with the
|
||||
parameters given.
|
||||
\end{methoddesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}{executescript}{sql_script}
|
||||
This is a nonstandard shortcut that creates an intermediate cursor object by
|
||||
calling the cursor method, then calls the cursor's \method{executescript} method with the
|
||||
parameters given.
|
||||
\end{methoddesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}{create_function}{name, num_params, func}
|
||||
|
||||
Creates a user-defined function that you can later use from within SQL
|
||||
statements under the function name \var{name}. \var{num_params} is the number
|
||||
of parameters the function accepts, and \var{func} is a Python callable that is
|
||||
called as SQL function.
|
||||
|
||||
The function can return any of the types supported by SQLite: unicode, str,
|
||||
int, long, float, buffer and None. Exceptions in the function are ignored and
|
||||
they are handled as if the function returned None.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/md5func.py}
|
||||
\end{methoddesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}{create_aggregate}{name, num_params, aggregate_class}
|
||||
|
||||
Creates a user-defined aggregate function.
|
||||
|
||||
The aggregate class must implement a \code{step} method, which accepts the
|
||||
number of parameters \var{num_params}, and a \code{finalize} method which
|
||||
will return the final result of the aggregate.
|
||||
|
||||
The \code{finalize} method can return any of the types supported by SQLite:
|
||||
unicode, str, int, long, float, buffer and None. Any exceptions are ignored.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/mysumaggr.py}
|
||||
\end{methoddesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}{create_collation}{name, callable}
|
||||
|
||||
Creates a collation with the specified \var{name} and \var{callable}. The
|
||||
callable will be passed two string arguments. It should return -1 if the first
|
||||
is ordered lower than the second, 0 if they are ordered equal and 1 and if the
|
||||
first is ordered higher than the second. Note that this controls sorting
|
||||
(ORDER BY in SQL) so your comparisons don't affect other SQL operations.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that the callable will get its parameters as Python bytestrings, which
|
||||
will normally be encoded in UTF-8.
|
||||
|
||||
The following example shows a custom collation that sorts "the wrong way":
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/collation_reverse.py}
|
||||
|
||||
To remove a collation, call \code{create_collation} with None as callable:
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{verbatim}
|
||||
con.create_collation("reverse", None)
|
||||
\end{verbatim}
|
||||
\end{methoddesc}
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{memberdesc}{row_factory}
|
||||
You can change this attribute to a callable that accepts the cursor and
|
||||
the original row as tuple and will return the real result row. This
|
||||
way, you can implement more advanced ways of returning results, like
|
||||
ones that can also access columns by name.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/row_factory.py}
|
||||
|
||||
If the standard tuple types don't suffice for you, and you want name-based
|
||||
access to columns, you should consider setting \member{row_factory} to the
|
||||
highly-optimized sqlite3.Row type. It provides both
|
||||
index-based and case-insensitive name-based access to columns with almost
|
||||
no memory overhead. Much better than your own custom dictionary-based
|
||||
approach or even a db_row based solution.
|
||||
\end{memberdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{memberdesc}{text_factory}
|
||||
Using this attribute you can control what objects are returned for the
|
||||
TEXT data type. By default, this attribute is set to \class{unicode} and
|
||||
the \module{sqlite3} module will return Unicode objects for TEXT. If you want to return
|
||||
bytestrings instead, you can set it to \class{str}.
|
||||
|
||||
For efficiency reasons, there's also a way to return Unicode objects only
|
||||
for non-ASCII data, and bytestrings otherwise. To activate it, set this
|
||||
attribute to \constant{sqlite3.OptimizedUnicode}.
|
||||
|
||||
You can also set it to any other callable that accepts a single bytestring
|
||||
parameter and returns the result object.
|
||||
|
||||
See the following example code for illustration:
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/text_factory.py}
|
||||
\end{memberdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{memberdesc}{total_changes}
|
||||
Returns the total number of database rows that have be modified, inserted,
|
||||
or deleted since the database connection was opened.
|
||||
\end{memberdesc}
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\subsection{Cursor Objects \label{sqlite3-Cursor-Objects}}
|
||||
|
||||
A \class{Cursor} instance has the following attributes and methods:
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}{execute}{sql, \optional{parameters}}
|
||||
|
||||
Executes a SQL statement. The SQL statement may be parametrized (i. e.
|
||||
placeholders instead of SQL literals). The \module{sqlite3} module supports two kinds of
|
||||
placeholders: question marks (qmark style) and named placeholders (named
|
||||
style).
|
||||
|
||||
This example shows how to use parameters with qmark style:
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/execute_1.py}
|
||||
|
||||
This example shows how to use the named style:
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/execute_2.py}
|
||||
|
||||
\method{execute} will only execute a single SQL statement. If you try to
|
||||
execute more than one statement with it, it will raise a Warning. Use
|
||||
\method{executescript} if want to execute multiple SQL statements with one
|
||||
call.
|
||||
\end{methoddesc}
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}{executemany}{sql, seq_of_parameters}
|
||||
Executes a SQL command against all parameter sequences or mappings found in the
|
||||
sequence \var{sql}. The \module{sqlite3} module also allows
|
||||
to use an iterator yielding parameters instead of a sequence.
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/executemany_1.py}
|

\verbatiminput{sqlite3/executemany_2.py}
|
||||
\end{methoddesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}{executescript}{sql_script}
|
||||
|
||||
This is a nonstandard convenience method for executing multiple SQL statements
|
||||
at once. It issues a COMMIT statement before, then executes the SQL script it
|
||||
gets as a parameter.
|
||||
|
||||
\var{sql_script} can be a bytestring or a Unicode string.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/executescript.py}
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
\begin{memberdesc}{rowcount}
|
||||
Although the \class{Cursor} class of the \module{sqlite3} module implements this
|
||||
attribute, the database engine's own support for the determination of "rows
|
||||
affected"/"rows selected" is quirky.
|
||||
|
||||
For \code{SELECT} statements, \member{rowcount} is always None because we cannot
|
||||
determine the number of rows a query produced until all rows were fetched.
|
||||
|
||||
For \code{DELETE} statements, SQLite reports \member{rowcount} as 0 if you make a
|
||||
\code{DELETE FROM table} without any condition.
|
||||
|
||||
For \method{executemany} statements, the number of modifications are summed
|
||||
up into \member{rowcount}.
|
||||
|
||||
As required by the Python DB API Spec, the \member{rowcount} attribute "is -1
|
||||
in case no executeXX() has been performed on the cursor or the rowcount
|
||||
of the last operation is not determinable by the interface".

||||

\subsection{SQLite and Python types\label{sqlite3-Types}}
|
||||
|
||||
\subsubsection{Introduction}
|
||||
|
||||
SQLite natively supports the following types: NULL, INTEGER, REAL, TEXT, BLOB.
|
||||
|
||||
The following Python types can thus be sent to SQLite without any problem:
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{tableii} {c|l}{code}{Python type}{SQLite type}
|
||||
\lineii{None}{NULL}
|
||||
\lineii{int}{INTEGER}
|
||||
\lineii{long}{INTEGER}
|
||||
\lineii{float}{REAL}
|
||||
\lineii{str (UTF8-encoded)}{TEXT}
|
||||
\lineii{unicode}{TEXT}
|
||||
\lineii{buffer}{BLOB}
|
||||
\end{tableii}
|
||||
|
||||
This is how SQLite types are converted to Python types by default:
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{tableii} {c|l}{code}{SQLite type}{Python type}
|
||||
\lineii{NULL}{None}
|
||||
\lineii{INTEGER}{int or long, depending on size}
|
||||
\lineii{REAL}{float}
|
||||
\lineii{TEXT}{depends on text_factory, unicode by default}
|
||||
\lineii{BLOB}{buffer}
|
||||
\end{tableii}
|
||||
|
||||
The type system of the \module{sqlite3} module is extensible in both ways: you can store
|
||||
additional Python types in a SQLite database via object adaptation, and you can
|
||||
let the \module{sqlite3} module convert SQLite types to different Python types via
|
||||
converters.
|
||||
|
||||
\subsubsection{Using adapters to store additional Python types in SQLite databases}
|
||||
|
||||
Like described before, SQLite supports only a limited set of types natively. To
|
||||
use other Python types with SQLite, you must \strong{adapt} them to one of the sqlite3
|
||||
module's supported types for SQLite. So, one of NoneType, int, long, float,
|
||||
str, unicode, buffer.
|
||||
|
||||
The \module{sqlite3} module uses the Python object adaptation, like described in PEP 246
|
||||
for this. The protocol to use is \class{PrepareProtocol}.
|
||||
|
||||
There are two ways to enable the \module{sqlite3} module to adapt a custom Python type
|
||||
to one of the supported ones.
|
||||
|
||||
\paragraph{Letting your object adapt itself}
|
||||
|
||||
This is a good approach if you write the class yourself. Let's suppose you have
|
||||
a class like this:
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{verbatim}
|
||||
class Point(object):
|
||||
def __init__(self, x, y):
|
||||
self.x, self.y = x, y
|
||||
\end{verbatim}
|
||||
|
||||
Now you want to store the point in a single SQLite column. You'll have to
|
||||
choose one of the supported types first that you use to represent the point in.
|
||||
Let's just use str and separate the coordinates using a semicolon. Then you
|
||||
need to give your class a method \code{__conform__(self, protocol)} which must
|
||||
return the converted value. The parameter \var{protocol} will be
|
||||
\class{PrepareProtocol}.
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/adapter_point_1.py}
|
||||
|
||||
\paragraph{Registering an adapter callable}
|
||||
|
||||
The other possibility is to create a function that converts the type to the
|
||||
string representation and register the function with \method{register_adapter}.
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/adapter_point_2.py}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{notice}
|
||||
The type/class to adapt must be a new-style class, i. e. it must have
|
||||
\class{object} as one of its bases.
|
||||
\end{notice}
|
||||
|
||||
The \module{sqlite3} module has two default adapters for Python's builtin
|
||||
\class{datetime.date} and \class{datetime.datetime} types. Now let's suppose we
|
||||
want to store \class{datetime.datetime} objects not in ISO representation, but
|
||||
as Unix timestamp.
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/adapter_datetime.py}
|
||||
|
||||
\subsubsection{Converting SQLite values to custom Python types}
|
||||
|
||||
Now that's all nice and dandy that you can send custom Python types to SQLite.
|
||||
But to make it really useful we need to make the Python to SQLite to Python
|
||||
roundtrip work.
|
||||
|
||||
Enter converters.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's go back to the Point class. We stored the x and y coordinates separated
|
||||
via semicolons as strings in SQLite.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's first define a converter function that accepts the string as a parameter and constructs a Point object from it.
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{notice}
|
||||
Converter functions \strong{always} get called with a string, no matter
|
||||
under which data type you sent the value to SQLite.
|
||||
\end{notice}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{notice}
|
||||
Converter names are looked up in a case-sensitive manner.
|
||||
\end{notice}
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{verbatim}
|
||||
def convert_point(s):
|
||||
x, y = map(float, s.split(";"))
|
||||
return Point(x, y)
|
||||
\end{verbatim}
|
||||
|
||||
Now you need to make the \module{sqlite3} module know that what you select from the
|
||||
database is actually a point. There are two ways of doing this:
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item Implicitly via the declared type
|
||||
\item Explicitly via the column name
|
||||
\end{itemize}
|
||||
|
||||
Both ways are described at \ref{sqlite3-Module-Contents} in the text explaining
|
||||
the constants \constant{PARSE_DECLTYPES} and \constant{PARSE_COlNAMES}.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The following example illustrates both ways.
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/converter_point.py}
|
||||
|
||||
\subsubsection{Default adapters and converters}
|
||||
|
||||
There are default adapters for the date and datetime types in the datetime
|
||||
module. They will be sent as ISO dates/ISO timestamps to SQLite.
|
||||
|
||||
The default converters are registered under the name "date" for datetime.date
|
||||
and under the name "timestamp" for datetime.datetime.
|
||||
|
||||
This way, you can use date/timestamps from Python without any additional
|
||||
fiddling in most cases. The format of the adapters is also compatible with the
|
||||
experimental SQLite date/time functions.
|
||||
|
||||
The following example demonstrates this.
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/pysqlite_datetime.py}
|
||||
|
||||
\subsection{Controlling Transactions \label{sqlite3-Controlling-Transactions}}
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the \module{sqlite3} module opens transactions implicitly before a DML
|
||||
statement (INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE/REPLACE), and commits transactions implicitly
|
||||
before a non-DML, non-DQL statement (i. e. anything other than
|
||||
SELECT/INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE/REPLACE).
|
||||
|
||||
So if you are within a transaction, and issue a command like \code{CREATE TABLE
|
||||
...}, \code{VACUUM}, \code{PRAGMA}, the \module{sqlite3} module will commit implicitly
|
||||
before executing that command. There are two reasons for doing that. The first
|
||||
is that some of these commands don't work within transactions. The other reason
|
||||
is that pysqlite needs to keep track of the transaction state (if a transaction
|
||||
is active or not).
|
||||
|
||||
You can control which kind of "BEGIN" statements pysqlite implicitly executes
|
||||
(or none at all) via the \var{isolation_level} parameter to the
|
||||
\function{connect} call, or via the \member{isolation_level} property of
|
||||
connections.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want \strong{autocommit mode}, then set \member{isolation_level} to None.
|
||||
|
||||
Otherwise leave it at it's default, which will result in a plain "BEGIN"
|
||||
statement, or set it to one of SQLite's supported isolation levels: DEFERRED,
|
||||
IMMEDIATE or EXCLUSIVE.
|
||||
|
||||
As the \module{sqlite3} module needs to keep track of the transaction state, you should
|
||||
not use \code{OR ROLLBACK} or \code{ON CONFLICT ROLLBACK} in your SQL. Instead,
|
||||
catch the \exception{IntegrityError} and call the \method{rollback} method of
|
||||
the connection yourself.
|
||||
|
||||
\subsection{Using pysqlite efficiently}
|
||||
|
||||
\subsubsection{Using shortcut methods}
|
||||
|
||||
Using the nonstandard \method{execute}, \method{executemany} and
|
||||
\method{executescript} methods of the \class{Connection} object, your code can
|
||||
be written more concisely, because you don't have to create the - often
|
||||
superfluous \class{Cursor} objects explicitly. Instead, the \class{Cursor}
|
||||
objects are created implicitly and these shortcut methods return the cursor
|
||||
objects. This way, you can for example execute a SELECT statement and iterate
|
||||
over it directly using only a single call on the \class{Connection} object.
|
||||
|
||||
\verbatiminput{sqlite3/shortcut_methods.py}
|
||||
|
||||
\subsubsection{Accessing columns by name instead of by index}
|
||||
|
||||
One cool feature of the \module{sqlite3} module is the builtin \class{sqlite3.Row} class
|
||||
designed to be used as a row factory.
|
||||
|
||||
Rows wrapped with this class can be accessed both by index (like tuples) and
|
||||
case-insensitively by name:

\subsection{Context Manager Types \label{typecontextmanager}}
|
||||
|
||||
\versionadded{2.5}
|
||||
\index{context manager}
|
||||
\index{context management protocol}
|
||||
\index{protocol!context management}
|
||||
|
||||
Python's \keyword{with} statement supports the concept of a runtime
|
||||
context defined by a context manager. This is implemented using
|
||||
two separate methods that allow user-defined classes to define
|
||||
a runtime context that is entered before the statement body is
|
||||
executed and exited when the statement ends.
|
||||
|
||||
The \dfn{context management protocol} consists of a pair of
|
||||
methods that need to be provided for a context manager object to
|
||||
define a runtime context:
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}[context manager]{__enter__}{}
|
||||
Enter the runtime context and return either this object or another
|
||||
object related to the runtime context. The value returned by this
|
||||
method is bound to the identifier in the \keyword{as} clause of
|
||||
\keyword{with} statements using this context manager.
|
||||
|
||||
An example of a context manager that returns itself is a file object.
|
||||
File objects return themselves from __enter__() to allow
|
||||
\function{open()} to be used as the context expression in a
|
||||
\keyword{with} statement.
|
||||
|
||||
An example of a context manager that returns a related
|
||||
object is the one returned by \code{decimal.Context.get_manager()}.
|
||||
These managers set the active decimal context to a copy of the
|
||||
original decimal context and then return the copy. This allows
|
||||
changes to be made to the current decimal context in the body of
|
||||
the \keyword{with} statement without affecting code outside
|
||||
the \keyword{with} statement.
|
||||
\end{methoddesc}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{methoddesc}[context manager]{__exit__}{exc_type, exc_val, exc_tb}
|
||||
Exit the runtime context and return a Boolean flag indicating if any
|
||||
expection that occurred should be suppressed. If an exception
|
||||
occurred while executing the body of the \keyword{with} statement, the
|
||||
arguments contain the exception type, value and traceback information.
|
||||
Otherwise, all three arguments are \var{None}.
|
||||
|
||||
Returning a true value from this method will cause the \keyword{with}
|
||||
statement to suppress the exception and continue execution with the
|
||||
statement immediately following the \keyword{with} statement. Otherwise
|
||||
the exception continues propagating after this method has finished
|
||||
executing. Exceptions that occur during execution of this method will
|
||||
replace any exception that occurred in the body of the \keyword{with}
|
||||
statement.
|
||||
|
||||
The exception passed in should never be reraised explicitly - instead,
|
||||
this method should return a false value to indicate that the method
|
||||
completed successfully and does not want to suppress the raised
|
||||
exception. This allows context management code (such as
|
||||
\code{contextlib.nested}) to easily detect whether or not an
|
||||
\method{__exit__()} method has actually failed.
|
||||
\end{methoddesc}
|
||||
|
||||
Python defines several context managers to support easy thread
|
||||
synchronisation, prompt closure of files or other objects, and
|
||||
simpler manipulation of the active decimal arithmetic
|
||||
context. The specific types are not treated specially beyond
|
||||
their implementation of the context management protocol.
|
||||
|
||||
Python's generators and the \code{contextlib.contextfactory} decorator
|
||||
provide a convenient way to implement these protocols. If a generator
|
||||
function is decorated with the \code{contextlib.contextfactory}
|
||||
decorator, it will return a context manager implementing the necessary
|
||||
\method{__enter__()} and \method{__exit__()} methods, rather than the
|
||||
iterator produced by an undecorated generator function.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that there is no specific slot for any of these methods in the
|
||||
type structure for Python objects in the Python/C API. Extension
|
||||
types wanting to define these methods must provide them as a normal
|
||||
Python accessible method. Compared to the overhead of setting up the
|
||||
runtime context, the overhead of a single class dictionary lookup
|
||||
is negligible.

\declaremodule{standard}{trace}
|
||||
\modulesynopsis{Trace or track Python statement execution.}
|
||||
|
||||
The \module{trace} module allows you to trace program execution, generate
|
||||
annotated statement coverage listings, print caller/callee relationships and
|
||||
list functions executed during a program run. It can be used in another
|
||||
program or from the command line.
|
||||
|
||||
\subsection{Command Line Usage\label{trace-cli}}
|
||||
|
||||
The \module{trace} module can be invoked from the command line. It can be
|
||||
as simple as
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{verbatim}
|
||||
python -m trace --count somefile.py ...
|
||||
\end{verbatim}
|
||||
|
||||
The above will generate annotated listings of all Python modules imported
|
||||
during the execution of \file{somefile.py}.
|
||||
|
||||
The following command-line arguments are supported:
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{description}
|
||||
\item[\longprogramopt{trace}, \programopt{-t}]
|
||||
Display lines as they are executed.
|
||||
|
||||
\item[\longprogramopt{count}, \programopt{-c}]
|
||||
Produce a set of annotated listing files upon program
|
||||
completion that shows how many times each statement was executed.
|
||||
|
||||
\item[\longprogramopt{report}, \programopt{-r}]
|
||||
Produce an annotated list from an earlier program run that
|
||||
used the \longprogramopt{count} and \longprogramopt{file} arguments.
|
||||
|
||||
\item[\longprogramopt{no-report}, \programopt{-R}]
|
||||
Do not generate annotated listings. This is useful if you intend to make
|
||||
several runs with \longprogramopt{count} then produce a single set
|
||||
of annotated listings at the end.
|
||||
|
||||
\item[\longprogramopt{listfuncs}, \programopt{-l}]
|
||||
List the functions executed by running the program.
|
||||
|
||||
\item[\longprogramopt{trackcalls}, \programopt{-T}]
|
||||
Generate calling relationships exposed by running the program.
|
||||
|
||||
\item[\longprogramopt{file}, \programopt{-f}]
|
||||
Name a file containing (or to contain) counts.
|
||||
|
||||
\item[\longprogramopt{coverdir}, \programopt{-C}]
|
||||
Name a directory in which to save annotated listing files.
|
||||
|
||||
\item[\longprogramopt{missing}, \programopt{-m}]
|
||||
When generating annotated listings, mark lines which
|
||||
were not executed with `\code{>>>>>>}'.
|
||||
|
||||
\item[\longprogramopt{summary}, \programopt{-s}]
|
||||
When using \longprogramopt{count} or \longprogramopt{report}, write a
|
||||
brief summary to stdout for each file processed.
|
||||
|
||||
\item[\longprogramopt{ignore-module}]
|
||||
Ignore the named module and its submodules (if it is
|
||||
a package). May be given multiple times.
|
||||
|
||||
\item[\longprogramopt{ignore-dir}]
|
||||
Ignore all modules and packages in the named directory
|
||||
and subdirectories. May be given multiple times.

A \dfn{context manager} is an object that manages the entry to, and exit

from, a \dfn{context} surrounding a block of code. Context managers are

normally invoked using the \keyword{with} statement (described in

section~\ref{with}), but can also be used by directly invoking their
|

methods.

A \dfn{context manager} is an object that defines the runtime

context to be established when executing a \keyword{with}

of the block of code. Context managers are normally invoked using

\section{Predefined Clean-up Actions \label{cleanup-with}}
|
||||
|
||||
Some objects define standard clean-up actions to be undertaken when
|
||||
the object is no longer needed, regardless of whether or not the
|
||||
operation using the object succeeded or failed.
|
||||
Look at the following example, which tries to open a file and print
|
||||
its contents to the screen.
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{verbatim}
|
||||
for line in open("myfile.txt"):
|
||||
print line
|
||||
\end{verbatim}
|
||||
|
||||
The problem with this code is that it leaves the file open for an
|
||||
indeterminate amount of time after the code has finished executing.
|
||||
This is not an issue in simple scripts, but can be a problem for
|
||||
larger applications. The \keyword{with} statement allows
|
||||
objects like files to be used in a way that ensures they are
|
||||
always cleaned up promptly and correctly.
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{verbatim}
|
||||
with open("myfile.txt") as f:
|
||||
for line in f:
|
||||
print line
|
||||
\end{verbatim}
|
||||
|
||||
After the statement is executed, the file \var{f} is always closed,
|
||||
even if a problem was encountered while processing the lines. Other
|
||||
objects which provide predefined clean-up actions will indicate
|
||||
this in their documentation.

PEP 243 describes an HTTP-based protocol for submitting software

the new \command{upload} Distutils command will upload a package to the

Before a package can be uploaded, you must be able to build a

distribution using the \command{sdist} Distutils command. Once that

works, you can run \code{python setup.py upload} to add your package

|

existing objects that are documented to work as context managers, and

understand the details of the underlying implementation and should

keep reading.
|
||||
|
||||
A high-level explanation of the context management protocol is:
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
|
||||
\item The expression is evaluated and should result in an object
|
||||
that's a context manager, meaning that it has a
|
||||
\method{__context__()} method.
|
||||
called a ``context manager''. The context manager must have
|
||||
\method{__enter__()} and \method{__exit__()} methods.
|
||||
|
||||
\item This object's \method{__context__()} method is called, and must
|
||||
return a context object.
|
||||
|
||||
\item The context's \method{__enter__()} method is called.
|
||||
The value returned is assigned to \var{VAR}. If no \code{'as \var{VAR}'}
|
||||
clause is present, the value is simply discarded.
|
||||
\item The context manager's \method{__enter__()} method is called. The value
|
||||
returned is assigned to \var{VAR}. If no \code{'as \var{VAR}'} clause
|
||||
is present, the value is simply discarded.
|
||||
|
||||
\item The code in \var{BLOCK} is executed.
|
||||
|
||||
\item If \var{BLOCK} raises an exception, the context object's
|
||||
\item If \var{BLOCK} raises an exception, the
|
||||
\method{__exit__(\var{type}, \var{value}, \var{traceback})} is called
|
||||
with the exception's information, the same values returned by
|
||||
\function{sys.exc_info()}. The method's return value
|
||||
controls whether the exception is re-raised: any false value
|
||||
re-raises the exception, and \code{True} will result in suppressing it.
|
||||
You'll only rarely want to suppress the exception; the
|
||||
author of the code containing the '\keyword{with}' statement will
|
||||
never realize anything went wrong.

\item Both 8-bit and Unicode strings have new \method{partition(sep)}
|

and \method{rpartition(sep)} methods that simplify a common use case.
|

The \method{find(S)} method is often used to get an index which is
|

then used to slice the string and obtain the pieces that are before
|
||||
and after the separator.
|
||||
|
||||
\method{partition(sep)} condenses this
|
||||
pattern into a single method call that returns a 3-tuple containing
|
||||
the substring before the separator, the separator itself, and the
|
||||
substring after the separator. If the separator isn't found, the
|
||||
first element of the tuple is the entire string and the other two
|
||||
elements are empty. \method{rpartition(sep)} also returns a 3-tuple
|

but starts searching from the end of the string; the \samp{r} stands
|

for 'reverse'.
