twisted.web.twcgi.FilteredScript(CGIScript) class documentation

Part of twisted.web.twcgi (View In Hierarchy)

Known subclasses: twisted.web.test.test_cgi.PythonScript

I am a special version of a CGI script, that uses a specific executable.

This is useful for interfacing with other scripting languages that adhere to the CGI standard. My filter attribute specifies what executable to run, and my filename init parameter describes which script to pass to the first argument of that script.

To customize me for a particular location of a CGI interpreter, override filter.

Instance Variable filter The absolute path to the executable. (type: str)
Method runProcess Run a script through the filter executable.

Inherited from CGIScript:

Method __init__ Initialize, with the name of a CGI script file.
Method render Do various things to conform to the CGI specification.
