            BufferedPipe

A buffer that obeys normal read (with timeout) & close semantics for a file or socket, but is fed data from another thread. This is used by Channel.

Instance Methods

bool |
read_ready(self) Returns true if data is buffered and ready to be read from this feeder. | source code
str |
read(self, nbytes, timeout=None) Read data from the pipe. | source code
str |
empty(self) Clear out the buffer and return all data that was in it. | source code
close(self) Close this pipe object. | source code

Method Details

### __init__(self) (Constructor) | source code
x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature Overrides: object.__init__ (inherited documentation)

### set_event(self, event) | source code
Set an event on this buffer. When data is ready to be read (or the buffer has been closed), the event will be set. When no data is ready, the event will be cleared. Parameters: `event` (Event) - the event to set/clear

### feed(self, data) | source code
Feed new data into this pipe. This method is assumed to be called from a separate thread, so synchronization is done. Parameters: `data` (str) - the data to add

### read_ready(self) | source code
Returns true if data is buffered and ready to be read from this feeder. A `False` result does not mean that the feeder has closed; it means you may need to wait before more data arrives. Returns: bool `True` if a read call would immediately return at least one byte; `False` otherwise.

### read(self, nbytes, timeout=None) | source code
Read data from the pipe. The return value is a string representing the data received. The maximum amount of data to be received at once is specified by `nbytes`. If a string of length zero is returned, the pipe has been closed. The optional `timeout` argument can be a nonnegative float expressing seconds, or `None` for no timeout. If a float is given, a `PipeTimeout` will be raised if the timeout period value has elapsed before any data arrives. Parameters: `nbytes` (int) - maximum number of bytes to read `timeout` (float) - maximum seconds to wait (or `None`, the default, to wait forever) Returns: str data Raises: `PipeTimeout` - if a timeout was specified and no data was ready before that timeout

### empty(self) | source code
Clear out the buffer and return all data that was in it. Returns: str any data that was in the buffer prior to clearing it out

### close(self) | source code
Close this pipe object. Future calls to read after the buffer has been emptied will return immediately with an empty string.

### __len__(self) (Length operator) | source code
Return the number of bytes buffered. Returns: int number of bytes bufferes
