The CoreFoundation reactor.

You probably want to use this via the install API.

Method __init__ Undocumented
Method add​Reader Implement IReactorFDSet.addReader.
Method add​Writer Implement IReactorFDSet.addWriter.
Method call​Later Implement IReactorTime.callLater.
Method crash Implement IReactorCore.crash
Method get​Readers Implement IReactorFDSet.getReaders.
Method get​Writers Implement IReactorFDSet.getWriters.
Method install​Waker Override installWaker in order to use _WakerPlus; otherwise this should be exactly the same as the parent implementation.
Method iterate Emulate the behavior of iterate() for things that want to call it, by letting the loop run for a little while and then scheduling a timed call to exit it.
Method main​Loop Run the runner (CFRunLoopRun or something that calls it), which runs the run loop until crash() is called.
Method remove​All Implement IReactorFDSet.removeAll.
Method remove​Reader Implement IReactorFDSet.removeReader.
Method remove​Writer Implement IReactorFDSet.removeWriter.
Method stop Implement IReactorCore.stop.
Instance Variable waker Undocumented
Method _flag2idx Convert a kCFSocket... constant to an index into the read/write state list (_READ or _WRITE) (the 4th element of the value of self._fdmap).
Method _move​Call​Later​Sooner No summary
Method _schedule​Simulate Schedule a call to self.runUntilCurrent. This will cancel the currently scheduled call if it is already scheduled.
Method _socket​Callback The socket callback issued by CFRunLoop. This will issue doRead or doWrite calls to the IReadDescriptor and IWriteDescriptor registered with the file descriptor that we are being notified of.
Method _stop​Now Immediately stop the CFRunLoop (which must be running!).
Method _unwatch​FD Unregister a file descriptor with the CFRunLoop, or modify its state so that it's listening for only one notification (read or write) as opposed to both; used to implement removeReader and removeWriter.
Method _watch​FD Register a file descriptor with the CFRunLoop, or modify its state so that it's listening for both notifications (read and write) rather than just one; used to implement addReader and addWriter.
Instance Variable _cfrunloop the CFRunLoop pyobjc object wrapped by this reactor.
Instance Variable _current​Simulator if a CFTimer is currently scheduled with the CF run loop to run Twisted callLater calls, this is a reference to it. Otherwise, it is None
Instance Variable _fdmap a dictionary, mapping an integer (a file descriptor) to a 4-tuple of:
Instance Variable _idmap a dictionary, mapping the id() of an IReadDescriptor or IWriteDescriptor to a fd in _fdmap. Implemented in this manner so that we don't have to rely (even more) on the hashability of IReadDescriptor providers, and we know that they won't be collected since these are kept in sync with _fdmap. Necessary because the .fileno() of a file descriptor may change at will, so we need to be able to look up what its file descriptor used to be, so that we can look it up in _fdmap
Instance Variable _in​CFLoop Is CFRunLoopRun currently running?
Instance Variable _runner Undocumented

Inherited from PluggableResolverMixin (via PosixReactorBase, ReactorBase):

Method install​Name​Resolver See IReactorPluggableNameResolver.
Method install​Resolver See IReactorPluggableResolver.
Instance Variable resolver The installed IResolverSimple.
Property name​Resolver Implementation of read-only IReactorPluggableNameResolver.nameResolver.
Instance Variable _name​Resolver The installed IHostnameResolver.
def __init__(self, runLoop=None, runner=None): (source)
def installWaker(self): (source)
Override installWaker in order to use _WakerPlus; otherwise this should be exactly the same as the parent implementation.
def iterate(self, delay=0): (source)
Emulate the behavior of iterate() for things that want to call it, by letting the loop run for a little while and then scheduling a timed call to exit it.
def mainLoop(self): (source)
Run the runner (CFRunLoopRun or something that calls it), which runs the run loop until crash() is called.
def _flag2idx(self, flag): (source)
Convert a kCFSocket... constant to an index into the read/write state list (_READ or _WRITE) (the 4th element of the value of self._fdmap).
Parameters
flagkCFSocketReadCallBack or kCFSocketWriteCallBack
Returns
_READ or _WRITE
def _moveCallLaterSooner(self, tple): (source)
Override PosixReactorBase's implementation of IDelayedCall.reset so that it will immediately reschedule. Normally _moveCallLaterSooner depends on the fact that runUntilCurrent is always run before the mainloop goes back to sleep, so this forces it to immediately recompute how long the loop needs to stay asleep.
def _scheduleSimulate(self, force=False): (source)
Schedule a call to self.runUntilCurrent. This will cancel the currently scheduled call if it is already scheduled.
Parameters
force:boolEven if there are no timed calls, make sure that runUntilCurrent runs immediately (in a 0-seconds-from-now CFRunLoopTimer). This is necessary for calls which need to trigger behavior of runUntilCurrent other than running timed calls, such as draining the thread call queue or calling crash() when the appropriate flags are set.
def _socketCallback(self, cfSocket, callbackType, ignoredAddress, ignoredData, context): (source)
The socket callback issued by CFRunLoop. This will issue doRead or doWrite calls to the IReadDescriptor and IWriteDescriptor registered with the file descriptor that we are being notified of.
Parameters
cf​SocketThe CFSocket which has got some activity.
callback​TypeThe type of activity that we are being notified of. Either kCFSocketReadCallBack or kCFSocketWriteCallBack.
ignored​AddressUnused, because this is not used for either of the callback types we register for.
ignored​DataUnused, because this is not used for either of the callback types we register for.
contextThe data associated with this callback by CFSocketCreateWithNative (in CFReactor._watchFD). A 2-tuple of (int, CFRunLoopSource).
def _stopNow(self): (source)
Immediately stop the CFRunLoop (which must be running!).
def _unwatchFD(self, fd, descr, flag): (source)
Unregister a file descriptor with the CFRunLoop, or modify its state so that it's listening for only one notification (read or write) as opposed to both; used to implement removeReader and removeWriter.
Parameters
fd:inta file descriptor
descran IReadDescriptor or IWriteDescriptor
flagkCFSocketWriteCallBack kCFSocketReadCallBack
def _watchFD(self, fd, descr, flag): (source)
Register a file descriptor with the CFRunLoop, or modify its state so that it's listening for both notifications (read and write) rather than just one; used to implement addReader and addWriter.
Parameters
fd:intThe file descriptor.
descrthe IReadDescriptor or IWriteDescriptor
flagthe flag to register for callbacks on, either kCFSocketReadCallBack or kCFSocketWriteCallBack
_cfrunloop = (source)
the CFRunLoop pyobjc object wrapped by this reactor.
_currentSimulator = (source)
if a CFTimer is currently scheduled with the CF run loop to run Twisted callLater calls, this is a reference to it. Otherwise, it is None
_fdmap: dict = (source)

a dictionary, mapping an integer (a file descriptor) to a 4-tuple of:

  • source: a CFRunLoopSource; the source associated with this socket.
  • socket: a CFSocket wrapping the file descriptor.
  • descriptor: an IReadDescriptor and/or IWriteDescriptor provider.
  • read-write: a 2-list of booleans: respectively, whether this descriptor is currently registered for reading or registered for writing.
_idmap: dict = (source)
a dictionary, mapping the id() of an IReadDescriptor or IWriteDescriptor to a fd in _fdmap. Implemented in this manner so that we don't have to rely (even more) on the hashability of IReadDescriptor providers, and we know that they won't be collected since these are kept in sync with _fdmap. Necessary because the .fileno() of a file descriptor may change at will, so we need to be able to look up what its file descriptor used to be, so that we can look it up in _fdmap
_inCFLoop: bool = (source)
Is CFRunLoopRun currently running?
_runner = (source)
