"""protocol (David Scherer <dscherer@cmu.edu>)
This module implements a simple RPC or "distributed object" protocol.
I am probably the 100,000th person to write this in Python, but, hey,
it was fun.
Contents:
connectionLost is an exception that will be thrown by functions in
the protocol module or calls to remote methods that fail because
the remote program has closed the socket or because no connection
could be established in the first place.
Server( port=None, connection_hook=None ) creates a server on a
well-known port, to which clients can connect. When a client
connects, a Connection is created for it. If connection_hook
is defined, then connection_hook( socket.getpeername() ) is called
before a Connection is created, and if it returns false then the
connection is refused. connection_hook must be prepared to be
called from any thread.
Client( ip='127.0.0.1', port=None ) returns a Connection to a Server
object at a well-known address and port.
Connection( socket ) creates an RPC connection on an arbitrary socket,
which must already be connected to another program. You do not
need to use this directly if you are using Client() or Server().
publish( name, connect_function ) provides an object with the
specified name to some or all Connections. When another program
calls Connection.getobject() with the specified name, the
specified connect_function is called with the arguments
connect_function( conn, addr )
where conn is the Connection object to the requesting client and
addr is the address returned by socket.getpeername(). If that
function returns an object, that object becomes accessible to
the caller. If it returns None, the caller's request fails.
Connection objects:
.close() refuses additional RPC messages from the peer, and notifies
the peer that the connection has been closed. All pending remote
method calls in either program will fail with a connectionLost
exception. Further remote method calls on this connection will
also result in errors.
.getobject(name) returns a proxy for the remote object with the
specified name, if it exists and the peer permits us access.
Otherwise, it returns None. It may throw a connectionLost
exception. The returned proxy supports basic attribute access
and method calls, and its methods have an extra attribute,
.void, which is a function that has the same effect but always
returns None. This last capability is provided as a performance
hack: object.method.void(params) can return without waiting for
the remote process to respond, but object.method(params) needs
to wait for a return value or exception.
.rpc_loop(block=0) processes *incoming* messages for this connection.
If block=1, it continues processing until an exception or return
value is received, which is normally forever. Otherwise it
returns when all currently pending messages have been delivered.
It may throw a connectionLost exception.
.set_close_hook(f) specifies a function to be called when the remote
object closes the connection during a call to rpc_loop(). This
is a good way for servers to be notified when clients disconnect.
.set_shutdown_hook(f) specifies a function called *immediately* when
the receive loop detects that the connection has been lost. The
provided function must be prepared to run in any thread.
Server objects:
.rpc_loop() processes incoming messages on all connections, and
returns when all pending messages have been processed. It will
*not* throw connectionLost exceptions; the
Connection.set_close_hook() mechanism is much better for servers.
