# Wrapper module for _socket, providing some additional facilities # implemented in Python. """\ This module provides socket operations and some related functions. On Unix, it supports IP (Internet Protocol) and Unix domain sockets. On other systems, it only supports IP. Functions specific for a socket are available as methods of the socket object. Functions: socket() -- create a new socket object socketpair() -- create a pair of new socket objects [*] fromfd() -- create a socket object from an open file descriptor [*] send_fds() -- Send file descriptor to the socket. recv_fds() -- Recieve file descriptors from the socket. fromshare() -- create a socket object from data received from socket.share() [*] gethostname() -- return the current hostname gethostbyname() -- map a hostname to its IP number gethostbyaddr() -- map an IP number or hostname to DNS info getservbyname() -- map a service name and a protocol name to a port number getprotobyname() -- map a protocol name (e.g. 'tcp') to a number ntohs(), ntohl() -- convert 16, 32 bit int from network to host byte order htons(), htonl() -- convert 16, 32 bit int from host to network byte order inet_aton() -- convert IP addr string (123.45.67.89) to 32-bit packed format inet_ntoa() -- convert 32-bit packed format IP to string (123.45.67.89) socket.getdefaulttimeout() -- get the default timeout value socket.setdefaulttimeout() -- set the default timeout value create_connection() -- connects to an address, with an optional timeout and optional source address. [*] not available on all platforms! Special objects: SocketType -- type object for socket objects error -- exception raised for I/O errors has_ipv6 -- boolean value indicating if IPv6 is supported IntEnum constants: AF_INET, AF_UNIX -- socket domains (first argument to socket() call) SOCK_STREAM, SOCK_DGRAM, SOCK_RAW -- socket types (second argument) Integer constants: Many other constants may be defined; these may be used in calls to the setsockopt() and getsockopt() methods.
