""" Standard "encodings" Package
|
|
|
|
Standard Python encoding modules are stored in this package
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
Codec modules must have names corresponding to standard lower-case
|
|
encoding names with hyphens mapped to underscores, e.g. 'utf-8' is
|
|
implemented by the module 'utf_8.py'.
|
|
|
|
Each codec module must export the following interface:
|
|
|
|
* getregentry() -> (encoder, decoder, stream_reader, stream_writer)
|
|
The getregentry() API must return callable objects which adhere to
|
|
the Python Codec Interface Standard.
|
|
|
|
In addition, a module may optionally also define the following
|
|
APIs which are then used by the package's codec search function:
|
|
|
|
* getaliases() -> sequence of encoding name strings to use as aliases
|
|
|
|
Alias names returned by getaliases() must be lower-case.
