Kamaelia.MimeRequestComponent.MimeRequestComponent

class MimeRequestComponent(Axon.Component.component)

Component that accepts raw data, parses it into consituent

parts of a MIME request. Attempts no interpretation of the request however.

Inboxes

• control : Secondary inbox often used for signals. The closest analogy is unix signals
• inbox : Default inbox for bulk data. Used in a pipeline much like stdin

Outboxes

• outbox : Default data out outbox, used in a pipeline much like stdout
• signal : The default signal based outbox - kinda like stderr, but more for sending singal type signals

Methods defined here

__init__(self)

checkEndOfHeader(self)

getALine(self)

Sets the CURRENT line arguments

getData(self)

getRequestLine(self)

Sets the REQUEST line arguments

handleDataAquisition(self)

This is currently clunky and effectively implements a state machine.

Should consider rewriting as a generator

initialiseComponent(self)

mainBody(self)

nextLine(self)

readHeader(self)
