r"""XML-RPC Servers.

This module can be used to create simple XML-RPC servers
by creating a server and either installing functions, a
class instance, or by extending the SimpleXMLRPCServer
class.

It can also be used to handle XML-RPC requests in a CGI
environment using CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler.

The Doc* classes can be used to create XML-RPC servers that
serve pydoc-style documentation in response to HTTP
GET requests. This documentation is dynamically generated
based on the functions and methods registered with the
server.

A list of possible usage patterns follows:

1. Install functions:

server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(("localhost", 8000))
server.register_function(pow)
server.register_function(lambda x,y: x+y, 'add')
server.serve_forever()

2. Install an instance:

class MyFuncs:
    def __init__(self):
        # make all of the sys functions available through sys.func_name
        import sys
        self.sys = sys
    def _listMethods(self):
        # implement this method so that system.listMethods
        # knows to advertise the sys methods
        return list_public_methods(self) + \
                ['sys.' + method for method in list_public_methods(self.sys)]
    def pow(self, x, y): return pow(x, y)
    def add(self, x, y) : return x + y

server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(("localhost", 8000))
server.register_introspection_functions()
server.register_instance(MyFuncs())
server.serve_forever()

3. Install an instance with custom dispatch method:

class Math:
    def _listMethods(self):
        # this method must be present for system.listMethods
        # to work
        return ['add', 'pow']
    def _methodHelp(self, method):
        # this method must be present for system.methodHelp
        # to work
        if method == 'add':
            return "add(2,3) => 5"
        elif method == 'pow':
            return "pow(x, y[, z]) => number"
        else:
            # By convention, return empty
            # string if no help is available
            return ""
    def _dispatch(self, method, params):
        if method == 'pow':
            return pow(*params)
        elif method == 'add':
            return params[0] + params[1]
        else:
            raise ValueError('bad method')

server = SimpleXMLRPCServer(("localhost", 8000))
server.register_introspection_functions()
server.register_instance(Math())
server.serve_forever()

4. Subclass SimpleXMLRPCServer:

class MathServer(SimpleXMLRPCServer):
    def _dispatch(self, method, params):
        try:
            # We are forcing the 'export_' prefix on methods that are
            # callable through XML-RPC to prevent potential security
            # problems
            func = getattr(self, 'export_' + method)
        except AttributeError:
            raise Exception('method "%s" is not supported' % method)
        else:
            return func(*params)

    def export_add(self, x, y):
        return x + y

server = MathServer(("localhost", 8000))
server.serve_forever()

5. CGI script:

server = CGIXMLRPCRequestHandler()
server.register_function(pow)
server.handle_request()
