- Classic book updated to Python 3 the latest version of Python
- Python is the go to glue language for a wide variety of programmers
- Encyclopaedic coverage of how to deal with network issues using Python
- Handles all the new developments in Python Network Programming, such as WSGI, FastCGI, etc
John Goerzen is an accomplished author, system administrator, and Python programmer. He has been a Debian developer since 1996 and is currently president of Software in the Public Interest, Inc. His previously published books include the Linux Programming Bible, Debian Unleashed, and Linux Unleashed.
This second edition of
Foundations of Python Network Programming targets Python 2.5 through Python 2.7, the most popular production versions of the language. Python has made great strides since Apress released the first edition of this book back in the days of Python 2.3. The advances required new chapters to be written from the ground up, and others to be extensively revised.
You will learn fundamentals like IP, TCP, DNS and SSL by using working Python programs; you will also be able to familiarize yourself with infrastructure components like memcached and message queues. You can also delve into network server designs, and compare threaded approaches with asynchronous event-based solutions.
But the biggest change is this edition's expanded treatment of the web. The HTTP protocol is covered in extensive detail, with each feature accompanied by sample Python code. You can use your HTTP protocol expertise by studying an entire chapter on screen scraping and you can then test lxml and BeautifulSoup against a real-world web site. The chapter on web application programming now covers both the WSGI standard for component interoperability, as well as modern web frameworks like Django.
Finally, all of the old favorites from the first edition are back: E-mail protocols like SMTP, POP, and IMAP get full treatment, as does XML-RPC. You can still learn how to code Python network programs using the Telnet and FTP protocols, but you are likely to appreciate the power of more modern alternatives like the paramiko SSH2 library. If you are a Python programmer who needs to learn the network, this is the book that you want by your side.|Introduction You have chosen an exciting moment in computing history to embark on a study of network programming. Machine room networks can carry data at speeds comparable to those at which machines access their own memory, and broadband now reaches hundreds of millions of homes worldwide. Many casual computer users spend their entire digital lives speaking exclusively to network services; they are only vaguely aware that their computer is even capable of running local applications. This is also a moment when, after 20 solid years of growth and improvement, interest in Python really seems to be taking off. This is different from the trajectory of other popular languages, many of which experience their heyday and go into decline long before the threshold of their third decade. The Python community is not only strong and growing, but its members seem to have a much better feel for the language itself than they did a decade ago. The advice we can share with new Python programmers about how to test, write, and structure applications is vastly more mature than what passed for Pythonic design a mere decade ago.
