class Application(WebKit.ConfigurableForServerSidePath.ConfigurableForServerSidePath, WebKit.Object.Object) |
|
The Application singleton.
`Application` and `AppServer` work together to setup up and dispatch
requests. The distinction between the two is largely historical, but
AppServer communicates directly with Adapters (or speaks protocols like
HTTP), and Application receives the (slightly) processed input from
AppServer and turns it into `Transaction`, `HTTPRequest`, `HTTPResponse`,
and `Session`.
Application is a singleton, which belongs to the AppServer. You can get
access through the Transaction object (``transaction.application()``),
or you can do::
from AppServer import globalAppServer
application = AppServer.application()
Settings for Application are taken from ``Configs/Application.config``,
and it is used for many global settings, even if they aren't closely tied
to the Application object itself. |

- Method resolution order:
- Application
- WebKit.ConfigurableForServerSidePath.ConfigurableForServerSidePath
- MiscUtils.Configurable.Configurable
- WebKit.Object.Object
- __builtin__.object
- MiscUtils.NamedValueAccess.NamedValueAccess
Methods defined here:
- __init__(self, server)
- Called only by `AppServer`, sets up the Application.
- addContext(self, name, path)
- Add a context by named `name`, rooted at `path`.
This gets imported as a package, and the last directory
of `path` does not have to match the context name.
(The package will be named `name`, regardless of `path`).
Delegated to `URLParser.ContextParser`.
- addServletFactory(self, factory)
- Add a ServletFactory.
Delegated to the `URLParser.ServletFactoryManager` singleton.
- addShutDownHandler(self, func)
- Add a shutdown handler.
Functions added through `addShutDownHandler` will be called when
the AppServer is shutting down. You can use this hook to close
database connections, clean up resources, save data to disk, etc.
- callMethodOfServlet(self, trans, url, method, *args, **kw)
- Call method of another servlet.
Call a method of the servlet referred to by the url, potentially in
a particular context (use the context keyword argument). Calls sleep()
and awake() before and after the method call. Or, if the servlet
defines it, then `runMethodForTransaction` is used (analogous to the
use of `runTransaction` in `forward`).
The entire process is similar to `forward`, except that instead of
`respond`, `method` is called (`method` should be a string, ``*args``
and ``**kw`` are passed as arguments to that method).
A `context` keyword argument (as used in `forward`) is also allowed,
though it isn't present in the method signature.
- configFilename(self)
- configReplacementValues(self)
- contexts(self)
- Return a dictionary of context-name: context-path.
- createRequestForDict(self, requestDict)
- Create request object for a given dictionary.
Create a request object (subclass of `Request`) given the raw
dictionary as passed by the adapter.
The class of the request may be based on the contents of the
dictionary (though only `HTTPRequest` is currently created),
and the request will later determine the class of the response.
Called by `dispatchRawRequest`.
- createSessionForTransaction(self, transaction)
- Get the session object for the transaction.
If the session already exists, returns that, otherwise creates
a new session.
Finding the session ID is done in `Transaction.sessionId`.
- createSessionWithID(self, transaction, sessionID)
- defaultConfig(self)
- The default Application.config.
- dispatchRawRequest(self, requestDict, strmOut)
- Dispatch a raw request.
Dispatch a request as passed from the Adapter through the AppServer.
This method creates the request, response, and transaction object,
then runs (via `runTransaction`) the transaction. It also catches any
exceptions, which are then passed on to `handleExceptionInTransaction`.
- forward(self, trans, url, context=None)
- Forward the request to a different (internal) url.
The transaction's URL is changed to point to the new servlet,
and the transaction is simply run again.
Output is _not_ accumulated, so if the original servlet had any output,
the new output will _replace_ the old output.
You can change the request in place to control the servlet you are
forwarding to -- using methods like `HTTPRequest.setField`.
@@ 2003-03 ib: how does the forwarded servlet knows that it's not
the original servlet?
- handleException(self)
- Handle exceptions.
This should only be used in cases where there is no transaction object,
for example if an exception occurs when attempting to save a session
to disk.
- handleExceptionInTransaction(self, excInfo, transaction)
- Handle exception with info.
Handles exception `excInfo` (as returned by ``sys.exc_info()``)
that was generated by `transaction`. It may display the exception
report, email the report, etc., handled by
`ExceptionHandler.ExceptionHandler`.
- handleMissingPathSession(self, transaction)
- Redirect requests without session info in the path.
if UseAutomaticPathSessions is enabled in Application.config
we redirect the browser to a url with SID in path
http://gandalf/a/_SID_=2001080221301877755/Examples/
_SID_ is extracted and removed from path in HTTPRequest.py
This is for convinient building of webapps that must not
depend on cookie support.
- handleUnnecessaryPathSession(self, transaction)
- Redirect request with unnecessary session info in the path.
This is called if it has been determined that the request has a path
session, but also cookies. In that case we redirect to eliminate the
unnecessary path session.
- hasContext(self, name)
- Checks whether context `name` exist.
- hasSession(self, sessionId)
- Check whether session `sessionId` exists.
- includeURL(self, trans, url, context=None)
- Include another servlet.
Include the servlet given by the url, potentially in context (or
current context). Like `forward`, except control is ultimately
returned to the servlet.
- initVersions(self)
- Get and store versions.
Initialize attributes that store the Webware and WebKit versions as
both tuples and strings. These are stored in the Properties.py files.
- name(self)
- The name by which this was started. Usually ``AppServer``.
- resolveInternalRelativePath(self, trans, url, context=None)
- Return the absolute internal path.
Given a URL and an optional context, return the absolute
internal URL. URLs are assumed relative to the current URL.
Absolute paths are returned unchanged.
- returnServlet(self, servlet, trans)
- rootURLParser(self)
- Accessor: the Rool URL parser.
URL parsing (as defined by subclasses of `URLParser.URLParser`)
starts here. Other parsers are called in turn by this parser.
- runTransaction(self, trans)
- Run transation.
Executes the transaction, handling HTTPException errors.
Finds the servlet (using the root parser, probably
`URLParser.ContextParser`, to find the servlet for the
transaction, then calling `runTransactionViaServlet`.
Called by `dispatchRawRequest`.
- runTransactionViaServlet(self, servlet, trans)
- Execute the transaction using the servlet.
This is the `awake`/`respond`/`sleep` sequence of calls, or if
the servlet supports it, a single `runTransaction` call (which is
presumed to make the awake/respond/sleep calls on its own). Using
`runTransaction` allows the servlet to override the basic call
sequence, or catch errors from that sequence.
Called by `runTransaction`.
- server(self)
- Acessor: the AppServer
- serverSidePath(self, path=None)
- Get the serve-side-path.
Returns the absolute server-side path of the WebKit application.
If the optional path is passed in, then it is joined with the
server side directory to form a path relative to the app server.
- session(self, sessionId, default=<class MiscUtils.NoDefault>)
- The session object for `sessionId`.
Raises ``KeyError`` if session not found and no default is given.
- sessions(self)
- A dictionary of all the session objects.
- shutDown(self)
- Shut down the application.
Called by AppServer when it is shuting down. The `__del__` function
of Application probably won't be called due to circular references.
- startSessionSweeper(self)
- Start session sweeper.
Starts the session sweeper, `WebKit.Tasks.SessionTask`, which deletes
session objects (and disk copies of those objects) that have expired.
- taskManager(self)
- Accessor: `TaskKit.Scheduler` instance.
- version(self)
- Return the version of the application.
This implementation returns '0.1'. Subclasses should
override to return the correct version number.
- webKitPath(self)
- The Path of the ``Webware/WebKit/`` directory.
- webKitVersion(self)
- Return the WebKit version as a tuple.
- webKitVersionString(self)
- Return the WebKit version as a printable string.
- webwarePath(self)
- The path of the ``Webware/`` directory.
- webwareVersion(self)
- Return the Webware version as a tuple.
- webwareVersionString(self)
- Return the Webware version as a printable string.
- writeActivityLog(self, transaction)
- Write an entry to the activity log.
Writes an entry to the script log file. Uses settings
``ActivityLogFilename`` and ``ActivityLogColumns``.
- writeExceptionReport(self, handler)
Methods inherited from WebKit.ConfigurableForServerSidePath.ConfigurableForServerSidePath:
- setting(self, name, default=<class MiscUtils.NoDefault>)
- Returns the setting, filtered by
serverSidePath(), if the name ends with
``Filename`` or ``Dir``.
Methods inherited from MiscUtils.Configurable.Configurable:
- commandLineConfig(self)
- Settings that came from the command line (via
addCommandLineSetting).
- config(self)
- Returns the configuration of the object as a dictionary. This is a combination of defaultConfig() and userConfig(). This method caches the config.
- configName(self)
- Returns the name of the configuration file (the portion
before the '.config'). This is used on the command-line.
- hasSetting(self, name)
- printConfig(self, dest=None)
- Prints the configuration to the given destination, which defaults to stdout. A fixed with font is assumed for aligning the values to start at the same column.
- setSetting(self, name, value)
- userConfig(self)
- Returns the user config overrides found in the optional config file, or {} if there is no such file. The config filename is taken from configFilename().
Methods inherited from WebKit.Object.Object:
- deprecated(self, method)
- Output a deprecation warning.
The implementation of WebKit sometimes invokes this method which prints
a warning that the method you are using has been deprecated.
This method expects that deprecated methods say so at the beginning of
their doc string and terminate that msg with @. For example:
DEPRECATED: Class.foo() on 01/24/01 in ver 0.5. Use Class.bar() instead. @
Putting this information in the doc string is important for accuracy
in the generated docs.
Example call:
deprecated(self.foo)
Data and other attributes inherited from WebKit.Object.Object:
- __dict__ = <dictproxy object>
- dictionary for instance variables (if defined)
- __weakref__ = <attribute '__weakref__' of 'Object' objects>
- list of weak references to the object (if defined)
Methods inherited from MiscUtils.NamedValueAccess.NamedValueAccess:
- hasValueForKey(self, key)
- Returns true if the key is available, although that does not
guarantee that there will not be errors caused by retrieving the key.
- hasValueForName(self, keysString)
- resetKeyBindings(self)
- setValueForKey(self, key, value)
- Suppose key is 'foo'. This method sets the value with the following precedence:
1. Public attributes before private attributes
2. Methods before non-methods
More specifically, this method then uses one of the following:
@@ 2000-03-04 ce: fill in
...or invokes handleUnknownSetKey().
- valueForKey(self, key, default=<class MiscUtils.NoDefault>)
- Suppose key is 'foo'. This method returns the value with the following precedence:
1. Methods before non-methods
2. Public attributes before private attributes
More specifically, this method then returns one of the following:
* foo()
* _foo()
* self.foo
* self._foo
...or default, if it was specified,
otherwise invokes and returns result of valueForUnknownKey().
Note that valueForUnknownKey(), normally returns an exception.
See valueForName() which is a more advanced version of this method that allows
multiple, qualified keys.
- valueForKeySequence(self, listOfKeys, default=None)
- valueForName(self, keysString, default=None)
- Returns the value for the given keysString. This is the more advanced version of
valueForKey(), which can only handle single names. This method can handle
'foo', 'foo1.foo2', 'a.b.c.d', etc. It will traverse dictionaries if needed.
- valueForUnknownKey(self, key, default)
- # Errors
- valuesForNames(self, keys, default=None, defaults=None, forgive=0, includeNames=0)
- Returns a list of values that match the given keys, each of which is passed
through valueForName() and so could be of the form 'a.b.c'.
keys is a sequence. default is any kind of object. defaults is a sequence.
forgive and includeNames is a flag.
If default is not None, then it is substituted when a key is not found.
Otherwise, if defaults is not None, then it's corresponding/parallel value
for the current key is substituted when a key is not found.
Otherwise, if forgive=1, then unknown keys simply don't produce any values.
Otherwise, if default and defaults are None, and forgive=0, then the unknown
keys will probably raise an exception through valueForUnknownKey() although
that method can always return a final, default value.
if keys is None, then None is returned. If keys is an empty list, then None
is returned.
Often these last four arguments are specified by key.
Examples:
names = ['origin.x', 'origin.y', 'size.width', 'size.height']
obj.valuesForNames(names)
obj.valuesForNames(names, default=0.0)
obj.valuesForNames(names, defaults=[0.0, 0.0, 100.0, 100.0])
obj.valuesForNames(names, forgive=0)
@@ 2000-03-04 ce: includeNames is only supported when forgive=1.
It should be supported for the other cases.
It should be documented.
It should be included in the test cases.

class EndResponse(exceptions.Exception) |
|
End response exception.
Used to prematurely break out of the awake()/respond()/sleep()
cycle without reporting a traceback. During servlet processing,
if this exception is caught during awake() or respond() then sleep()
is called and the response is sent. If caught during sleep(),
processing ends and the response is sent. |
