:mod:`DocXMLRPCServer` --- Self-documenting XML-RPC server ========================================================== .. module:: DocXMLRPCServer :synopsis: Self-documenting XML-RPC server implementation. .. moduleauthor:: Brian Quinlan <brianq@activestate.com> .. sectionauthor:: Brian Quinlan <brianq@activestate.com> .. note:: The :mod:`DocXMLRPCServer` module has been merged into :mod:`xmlrpc.server` in Python 3.0. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting your sources to 3.0. .. versionadded:: 2.3 The :mod:`DocXMLRPCServer` module extends the classes found in :mod:`SimpleXMLRPCServer` to serve HTML documentation in response to HTTP GET requests. Servers can either be free standing, using :class:`DocXMLRPCServer`, or embedded in a CGI environment, using :class:`DocCGIXMLRPCRequestHandler`. .. class:: DocXMLRPCServer(addr[, requestHandler[, logRequests[, allow_none[, encoding[, bind_and_activate]]]]]) Create a new server instance. All parameters have the same meaning as for :class:`SimpleXMLRPCServer.SimpleXMLRPCServer`; *requestHandler* defaults to :class:`DocXMLRPCRequestHandler`. .. class:: DocCGIXMLRPCRequestHandler() Create a new instance to handle XML-RPC requests in a CGI environment. .. class:: DocXMLRPCRequestHandler() Create a new request handler instance. This request handler supports XML-RPC POST requests, documentation GET requests, and modifies logging so that the *logRequests* parameter to the :class:`DocXMLRPCServer` constructor parameter is honored. .. _doc-xmlrpc-servers: DocXMLRPCServer Objects ----------------------- The :class:`DocXMLRPCServer` class is derived from :class:`SimpleXMLRPCServer.SimpleXMLRPCServer` and provides a means of creating self-documenting, stand alone XML-RPC servers. HTTP POST requests are handled as XML-RPC method calls. HTTP GET requests are handled by generating pydoc-style HTML documentation. This allows a server to provide its own web-based documentation. .. method:: DocXMLRPCServer.set_server_title(server_title) Set the title used in the generated HTML documentation. This title will be used inside the HTML "title" element. .. method:: DocXMLRPCServer.set_server_name(server_name) Set the name used in the generated HTML documentation. This name will appear at the top of the generated documentation inside a "h1" element. .. method:: DocXMLRPCServer.set_server_documentation(server_documentation) Set the description used in the generated HTML documentation. This description will appear as a paragraph, below the server name, in the documentation. DocCGIXMLRPCRequestHandler -------------------------- The :class:`DocCGIXMLRPCRequestHandler` class is derived from :class:`SimpleXMLRPCServer.CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler` and provides a means of creating self-documenting, XML-RPC CGI scripts. HTTP POST requests are handled as XML-RPC method calls. HTTP GET requests are handled by generating pydoc-style HTML documentation. This allows a server to provide its own web-based documentation. .. method:: DocCGIXMLRPCRequestHandler.set_server_title(server_title) Set the title used in the generated HTML documentation. This title will be used inside the HTML "title" element. .. method:: DocCGIXMLRPCRequestHandler.set_server_name(server_name) Set the name used in the generated HTML documentation. This name will appear at the top of the generated documentation inside a "h1" element. .. method:: DocCGIXMLRPCRequestHandler.set_server_documentation(server_documentation) Set the description used in the generated HTML documentation. This description will appear as a paragraph, below the server name, in the documentation.
