Hi folks,
I'm serving a Django app behind IIS 6. I'm wondering if I can restart IIS 6 within Python/Django and what one of the best ways to do would be.
Help would be great!
I want to be able to take a shortened or non-shortened URL and return its un-shortened form. How can I make a python program to do this?
Additional Clarification:
Case 1: shortened -- unshortened
Case 2: unshortened -- unshortened
e.g. bit.ly/silly in the input array should be google.com in the output array
e.g. google.com in the input array should be google.com in the output array
Thanks for the help!
How can I log into my Launchpad account in a python script? Any sample code would be appreciated.
The login url is https://launchpad.net/+login and then redirect to something like https://login.launchpad.net/fJLVSRbxPfKTpVDr/+decide
Thanks in advance!
I'm writing a shell for a project of mine, which by design parses commands that looks like this:
COMMAND_NAME ARG1="Long Value" ARG2=123 [email protected]
My problem is that Python's command line parsing libraries (getopt and optparse) forces me to use '-' or '--' in front of the arguments. This behavior doesn't match my requirements.
Any ideas how can this be solved? Any existing library for this?
In Python I can use the iterkeys() method to iterate over the keys of a dictionary. For example:
mydict = {'a': [3,5,6,43,3,6,3,],
'b': [87,65,3,45,7,8],
'c': [34,57,8,9,9,2],}
for k in mydict.iterkeys():
print k
gives me:
a
c
b
How can I do something similar in Javascript?
Am surprised there's 3 different forms: RawConfigParser, SafeConfigParser and ConfigParser. I read the differences but why isn't everyone using SafeConfigParser, since it seems, well, safe? I can understand that in the case for Python 2 that the other two were kept for backward compatibility.
I'm looking for a Python XMPP library that is able to reuse an already existing socket-like object (more specifically, a Bluetooth socket) for communicating, instead of connecting to a server.
Is there any nice library that can accomplish this?
Is it possible for my python web app to provide an option the for user to automatically send jobs to the locally connected printer? Or will the user always have to use the browser to manually print out everything.
I need to be able to block the urls that are stored in a text file on the hard disk using Python. If the url the user tries to visit is in the file, it redirects them to another page instead. How is this done?
Hi,
I'm writing a parser in Python. I've converted an input string into a list of tokens, such as:
['(', '2', '.', 'x', '.', '(', '3', '-', '1', ')', '+', '4', ')', '/', '3', '.', 'x', '^', '2']
I want to be able to split the list into multiple lists, like the str.split('+') function. But there doesn't seem to be a way to do my_list.split('+'). Any ideas?
Thanks!
class A:
def __init__(self):
print "world"

In all other languages I've worked with the super constructor is invoked implicitly. How does one invoke it in Python? I would expect super(self) but this doesn't work
Hi, I have an application that starts several threads using
gobject.timeout_add(delay, function)
Now in my function I want to test and set on some variable, e.g.
def function(self):
if flag == True:
flag = False
doSomething()
Now to make this threadsafe, I would have to lock the function using some mutex lock.
Is this possible with Gtk? Or can I use the Python Lock objects from threading?
I am iterating over an array in python:
for g in [ games[0:4] ]:
g.output()
Can I also initialise and increment an index in that for loop and pass it to g.output()?
such that g.output(2) results in:
Game 2 - name: Fruit Splat, text: "Splat fruits!", bitrate: 250000
Hello, I am creating a Beta Testers reporting module so they can send in thier comments on my software, but I would like to have the option to include a screenshot with the report. How do I take a screenshot of the screen with Python on Windows? I have found several examples on Linux, but haven't had much luck on Windows.
I am writing a program in Python, and want to get it to make the OS open the current working directory, making for instance Windows open explorer.exe and navigating to the wanted directory. Any ideas on how to do this?
The directory is already given by os.getcwd.
Cross platform methods preferred :)
I've always laughed to myself when I looked back at my VB6 days, "What modern language doesn't allow incrementing with double plus signs?":
number++
To my surprise I can't find anything about this in the Python docs. Must I really subject myself to number = number + 1? Doesn't people use the ++/-- notation?
:-(
Hi I have a MySQL server that I need access through a VPN.
I use MySQLdb package to access MySQL server in Python.
When I can access the server without VPN, it works fine, but when I'm at certain locations, I need to connect through VPN.
My computer is connected to the VPN and I can access the database through PHPMyAdmin, but MySQLdb gives me an error message:
OperationalError: (2003, "Can't connect to MySQL server on 'MY_IP' (10061)")
Any ideas on why it's not working?
Thanks
I have a Python app that contains an object structure that the user can manipulate. What I want to do is allow the user to create a file declaring how the object structure should be created.
For example, I would like the user to be able to create the following file:
foo.bar.baz = true
x.y.z = 12
and for my app to then create that object tree automatically. What's the best way to do something like this?
for example you run some client program, this program communicate with server to recieve data in realtime ... how can i listen to this network traffic and filter / store data in python?
Python is filled with little neat shortcuts.
For example:
self.data = map(lambda x: list(x), data)
and (although not so pretty)
tuple(t[0] for t in self.result if t[0] != 'mysql' and t[0] != 'information_schema')
among countless others.
In the irc channel, they said "too many to know them all".
I think we should list some here, as i love using these shortcuts to shorten & refctor my code. I'm sure this would benefit many.
How do you end up running pypcap for python 2.6 on a mac? It seems that there hasn't been any new releases since 2.5 or am I just looking in the wrong places?
