Auto-generating WSDL file for a Python Twisted SOAP Server

Any recommendations for auto-generating the WSDL for a Python/Twisted SOAP Server? I've found lots of examples for taking an existing WSDL and generating the stubbed Python code, but am looking for the reverse operation. ...

Twisted + Django + Reverse Proxy

Hello everyone, I am deploying twisted as a web server for my site. I am looking into possibilities of reverse proxying. I have the following code right now hooked up to my reactor for django. I am using comet, and I realize that I absolutely must use port 80 hence I am looking into possibilities of reverse proxying. On this site, I fo...

Twisted threaded tcp client

Hi there. I am trying to write a simple TCPServer and a client with Twisted python. Everything is working well; but, there is a way to defer some tasks to different threads? For example, is it possible to do: take an input from the user until \n, then send the data to the server; accept all the incoming messages from the server and wri...

I have the following: My webserver running on twisted My comet server, aka orbited Note that 1 and 2 are different processes. Basically, I want 1 and 2 to share the same port. Request that are http://mysite.com/a/b/c should go to the webserver and anything starting with http://mysite.com/orbited/ should go to the orbited server, i.e...

Escaping unicode strings for MySQL in Python (avoiding exceptions.UnicodeEncodeError)

I am using Twisted to asynchronously access our database in Python. My code looks like this: from twisted.enterprise import adbapi from MySQLdb import _mysql as mysql ... txn.execute(""" INSERT INTO users_accounts_data_snapshots (accountid, programid, fieldid, value, timestamp, jobid) VALUES ('%s', '%s', '%s', '%s', '%s', '%s...

Multiple communication channels with Twisted Python

I am currently researching the Twisted framework as a way of implementing a network-based backup application, and I would like to achieve something that I cannot find any examples of on the net. I plan to implement the system using the Perspective Broker, but I will also need a way of transferring binary files from the client to the ser...

Qt C++ tcp client with python twisted server

Hello, I'm trying to connect a very basic twisted "hello world" server with a basic Qt tcp client. The client uses these Signals: connect(&socket, SIGNAL(connected()), this, SLOT(startTransfer())); connect(&socket, SIGNAL(readyRead()), this, SLOT(readServer())); and then readServer() looks like this: ui->resultLabel->setText("Readin...

Threads vs. Async

I have been reading up on the threaded model of programming versus the asynchronous model from this really good article. http://krondo.com/blog/?p=1209 However, the article mentions the following points. An async program will simply outperform a sync program by switching between tasks whenever there is a I/O. Threads are managed by th...

Why is there a need for Twisted?

I have been playing around with the twisted framework for about a week now(more because of curiosity rather than having to use it) and its been a lot of fun doing event driven asynchronous network programming. However, there is something that I fail to understand. The twisted documentation starts off with Twisted is a framework desig...

Closing Perspective Broker connection in Twisted

Hi! I have program which has servers interacting with each other using Twisted's remote procedure calls, and I run in problems with closing connections when they are not needed anymore. Connections should be able to close itself in both sides. Case 1: How do I close connection in connecting part? factory = pb.PBClientFactory() reactor...

Stopping an application (punjab) that is run using Twisted

But how do I stop/restart it ? twistd -y punjab.tac starts punjab first time but after that if I enter the same command , it says Another twistd server is running, PID 3726. Precisely I want to se...

Can twisted be implemented in Java?

I remember reading that the following features lead to the development of interesting frameworks/libraries in Python:- (I read the article from http://www.python.org/workshops/2002-02/papers/09/index.htm) A simple class model, which facilitates inheritance. Dynamic typing, which means that the code needs to assume less. Built-in memory...

python twisted : retrieve a deferred's execution time

I would like to know how long a Deferred takes to execute, from the time the first callback is fired to the final result. Any ideas on how to do that, possibly in a non-invasive manner ( meaning no modification on any of the callback functions in order to track the execution time ) ? ...

How is event driven programming implemented?

I was looking on how the twisted and node.js frameworks work and I am trying to understand exactly how the operating system supports I/O operations using callbacks. I understand it's good because we need less threads because we don't need to have blocked threads waiting for I/O operations. But something has to call the callback once the...
