libnetworkcache - Client for ShaCache and ShaDir HTTP Server

Project description

Introduction

The goal of libnetworkcache python library is to abstract the HTTP calls. It works as wrapper of python httplib to use the Networkcache HTTP Server.

The Networkcache HTTP Server are sub-divided into two Web services:
  • SHACACHE

  • SHADIR

SHACACHE

It is a simple HTTP Server used to cache files.

SHADIR

It is a simple HTTP Server used to cache information, working like a directory.

API

Please see slapos/libnetworkcache.py and slapos/libnetworkcachetests.py

0.14.3 (2015-09-07)

  • Make information dict use str instead of unicode.

0.14.2 (2014-10-09)

0.13.4 (2013-05-13)

  • Define timeouts for every connection we initiate. May allow not to hang forever in a hostile environment when connection to networkcache server can stall / be reset.

0.13.3 (2012-12-11)

  • Don’t use logger.debug() but logger.info() in helpers so that it doesn’t. silent an error. [Cedric de Saint Martin]

0.13.2 (2012-09-04)

0.13.1 (2012-09-04)

  • Correctly return False if no entry is found while downloading. [Cedric de Saint Martin]

0.13 (2012-09-02)

  • Set timeout in httplib connections. [Cedric de Saint Martin]

  • networkcache won’t stupidly loop for 1000 iterations if “certificate” parameter is a string instead of a list. [Cedric de Saint Martin]

0.12 (2012-02-09)

  • Binary cache support. [Yingjie Xu]

0.11 (2011-12-14)

  • If given key has multiple signed values pick up the first one. [Łukasz Nowak]

0.10 (2011-09-05)

0.9 (2011-09-02)

  • Bugfix: Do not trust received content. [Łukasz Nowak]

0.8 (2011-09-02)

  • Bugfix: Do not try to validate against empty signatures. [Łukasz Nowak]

0.7 (2011-09-02)

  • Remove M2Crypto dependency and rely on openssl binary presence. [Łukasz Nowak]

  • Fix signing and verification. [Łukasz Nowak]

  • Simplify key generation and use slapos.cfg file by default. [Łukasz Nowak]

  • Internals: Increase test coverage.

0.6 (2011-08-31)

  • Authentication keys are supported. [Łukasz Nowak]

0.5 (2011-08-25)

  • Re-implemente signature support. [Łukasz Nowak]

  • Follow corrected specification. [Łukasz Nowak]

  • internals: Use urllib2. [Łukasz Nowak]

0.4 (2011-08-10)

0.3 (2011-08-03)

  • Deal with proxy in correct way [Sebastien Robin]

0.2 (2011-07-01)
