Class Details¶

class Soup.MultipartInputStream(**kwargs)¶

Bases:: Gio.FilterInputStream, Gio.PollableInputStream
Abstract:: No
Structure:: Soup.MultipartInputStreamClass

Handles streams of multipart messages.

This adds support for the multipart responses. For handling the multiple parts the user needs to wrap the [class`Gio`.InputStream] obtained by sending the request with a [class`MultipartInputStream`] and use [method`MultipartInputStream`.next_part] before reading. Responses which are not wrapped will be treated like non-multipart responses.

Note that although Soup.MultipartInputStream is a [class`Gio`.InputStream], you should not read directly from it, and the results are undefined if you do.

classmethod new(msg, base_stream)¶

Parameters:

msg (Soup.Message) – the Soup.Message the response is related to.
base_stream (Gio.InputStream) – the Gio.InputStream returned by sending the request.

Returns:

a new Soup.MultipartInputStream

Return type:

Soup.MultipartInputStream

Creates a new Soup.MultipartInputStream that wraps the [class`Gio`.InputStream] obtained by sending the [class`Message`].

Reads should not be done directly through this object, use the input streams returned by [method`MultipartInputStream`.next_part] or its async counterpart instead.

get_headers()¶

Returns:: a Soup.MessageHeaders containing the headers for the part currently being processed or None if the headers failed to parse.
Return type:: Soup.MessageHeaders or None

Obtains the headers for the part currently being processed.

Note that the [struct`MessageHeaders`] that are returned are owned by the Soup.MultipartInputStream and will be replaced when a call is made to [method`MultipartInputStream`.next_part] or its async counterpart, so if keeping the headers is required, a copy must be made.

Note that if a part had no headers at all an empty [struct`MessageHeaders`] will be returned.

next_part(cancellable)¶

Parameters:: cancellable (Gio.Cancellable or None) – a Gio.Cancellable
Raises:: GLib.Error
Returns:: a new Gio.InputStream, or None if there are no more parts
Return type:: Gio.InputStream or None

Obtains an input stream for the next part.

When dealing with a multipart response the input stream needs to be wrapped in a Soup.MultipartInputStream and this function or its async counterpart need to be called to obtain the first part for reading.

After calling this function, [method`MultipartInputStream`.get_headers] can be used to obtain the headers for the first part. A read of 0 bytes indicates the end of the part; a new call to this function should be done at that point, to obtain the next part.

next_part_async(io_priority, cancellable, callback, *data)¶

Parameters:

io_priority (int) – the I/O priority for the request.
cancellable (Gio.Cancellable or None) – a Gio.Cancellable.
callback (Gio.AsyncReadyCallback or None) – callback to call when request is satisfied.
data (object or None) – data for callback

Obtains a [class`Gio`.InputStream] for the next request.

See [method`MultipartInputStream`.next_part] for details on the workflow.

next_part_finish(result)¶

Parameters:: result (Gio.AsyncResult) – a Gio.AsyncResult.
Raises:: GLib.Error
Returns:: a newly created [class`Gio`.InputStream] for reading the next part or None if there are no more parts.
Return type:: Gio.InputStream or None

Finishes an asynchronous request for the next part.
