[Mod-pubsub-developer] New check-ins in the python_pubsub directory.

[Adam R. <Ad...@Kn...>]

Just did a CVS commit of asynchttp.py (from another sourceforge =
project), plus the newly-written-by-us scheduler.py and pubsublib.py, =
into the mod_pubsub/python_pubsub directory.  As a result, python_pubsub =
now contains a working pubsub standalone server and embeddable client =
library.

Also, earlier this evening checked in a patch to pubsub.cgi that fixed =
posting absolute url for topic with the notify method.  Added a new test =
to cgi-bin/pubsub_test.cgi to check for this.

For those folks with CVS, you can do an update; I'll put together =
another tarball of the whole distribution later this week.

P.S. -- Below is the preamble to pubsublib.py .

    pubsublib.py -- PubSub Python Client Library
    for use with pubsub.py & mod_pubsub

    This is a simple Python client library for use in event-driven
    programs.  It can publish, subscribe, and unsubscribe in (more
    or less) the same way the PubSub JavaScript Library does.

    Phil Harris' kn_python is available at =
http://cvs.developer.knownow.com/ .

    Two ways in which pubsublib.py differs from kn_python:

       1. The interface is URL based.
       2. All operations are in a single thread and nonblocking,
          using asyncore.

    Version 1.0 -- February 18, 2003.  Initial implementation.
    Works fine on Debian GNU Linux 3.0 with Python 2.1.3.

    Known Issues:

       1. No unit test suite.  We plan to port the JavaScript PubSub
          Library unit test suite to test this implementation.

       2. Lots of FIXME and TODO things left -- see source code =
comments.        =20
