twisted.news.nntp module documentation

Part of twisted.news

NNTP protocol support.

The following protocol commands are currently understood:

   LIST        LISTGROUP                  XOVER        XHDR
   POST        GROUP        ARTICLE       STAT         HEAD
   BODY        NEXT         MODE STREAM   MODE READER  SLAVE
   LAST        QUIT         HELP          IHAVE        XPATH
   XINDEX      XROVER       TAKETHIS      CHECK

The following protocol commands require implementation:

                            NEWNEWS
                            XGTITLE                XPAT
                            XTHREAD       AUTHINFO NEWGROUPS

Other desired features:

  • A real backend
  • More robust client input handling
  • A control protocol
