Stenner, Ryan Tomayko """Module for downloading files from a pool of mirrors DESCRIPTION This module provides support for downloading files from a pool of mirrors with configurable failover policies. To a large extent, the failover policy is chosen by using different classes derived from the main class, MirrorGroup. Instances of MirrorGroup (and cousins) act very much like URLGrabber instances in that they have urlread, urlgrab, and urlopen methods. They can therefore, be used in very similar ways. from urlgrabber.grabber import URLGrabber from urlgrabber.mirror import MirrorGroup gr = URLGrabber() mg = MirrorGroup(gr, ['http://foo.com/some/directory/', 'http://bar.org/maybe/somewhere/else/', 'ftp://baz.net/some/other/place/entirely/'] mg.urlgrab('relative/path.zip') The assumption is that all mirrors are identical AFTER the base urls specified, so that any mirror can be used to fetch any file. FAILOVER The failover mechanism is designed to be customized by subclassing from MirrorGroup to change the details of the behavior. In general, the classes maintain a master mirror list and a "current mirror" index. When a download is initiated, a copy of this list and index is created for that download only. The specific failover policy depends on the class used, and so is documented in the class documentation. Note that ANY behavior of the class can be overridden, so any failover policy at all is possible (although you may need to change the interface in extreme cases). CUSTOMIZATION Most customization of a MirrorGroup object is done at instantiation time (or via subclassing). There are four major types of customization: 1) Pass in a custom urlgrabber - The passed in urlgrabber will be used (by default... see #2) for the grabs, so options to it apply for the url-fetching 2) Custom mirror list - Mirror lists can simply be a list of stings mirrors (as shown in the example above) but each can also be a dict, allowing for more options. For example, the first mirror in the list above could also have been: {'mirror': 'http://foo.com/some/directory/', 'grabber': <a custom grabber to be used for this mirror>, 'kwargs': { <a dict of arguments passed to the grabber> }} All mirrors are converted to this format internally. If 'grabber' is omitted, the default grabber will be used. If kwargs are omitted, then (duh) they will not be used. 3) Pass keyword arguments when instantiating the mirror group. See, for example, the failure_callback argument. 4) Finally, any kwargs passed in for the specific file (to the urlgrab method, for example) will be folded in. The options passed into the grabber's urlXXX methods will override any options specified in a custom mirror dict. """ import random import thread # needed for locking to make this threadsafe from grabber import URLGrabError, CallbackObject, DEBUG def _(st): return st class GrabRequest: """This is a dummy class used to hold information about the specific request. For example, a single file. By maintaining this information separately, we can accomplish two things: 1) make it a little easier to be threadsafe 2) have request-specific parameters """ pass class MirrorGroup: """Base Mirror class Instances of this class are built with a grabber object and a list of mirrors. Then all calls to urlXXX should be passed relative urls. The requested file will be searched for on the first mirror. If the grabber raises an exception (possibly after some retries) then that mirror will be removed from the list, and the next will be attempted. If all mirrors are exhausted, then an exception will be raised. MirrorGroup has the following failover policy: * downloads begin with the first mirror * by default (see default_action below) a failure (after retries) causes it to increment the local AND master indices. Also, the current mirror is removed from the local list (but NOT the master list - the mirror can potentially be used for other files) * if the local list is ever exhausted, a URLGrabError will be raised (errno=256, no more mirrors) OPTIONS In addition to the required arguments "grabber" and "mirrors", MirrorGroup also takes the following optional arguments: default_action A dict that describes the actions to be taken upon failure (after retries). default_action can contain any of the following keys (shown here with their default values): default_action = {'increment': 1, 'increment_master': 1, 'remove': 1, 'remove_master': 0, 'fail': 0} In this context, 'increment' means "use the next mirror" and 'remove' means "never use this mirror again". The two 'master' values refer to the instance-level mirror list (used for all files), whereas the non-master values refer to the current download only. The 'fail' option will cause immediate failure by re-raising the exception and no further attempts to get the current download. This dict can be set at instantiation time, mg = MirrorGroup(grabber, mirrors, default_action={'fail':1}) at method-execution time (only applies to current fetch), filename = mg.urlgrab(url, default_action={'increment': 0}) or by returning an action dict from the failure_callback return {'fail':0} in increasing precedence. If all three of these were done, the net result would be: {'increment': 0, # set in method 'increment_master': 1, # class default 'remove': 1, # class default 'remove_master': 0, # class default 'fail': 0} # set at instantiation, reset # from callback failure_callback this is a callback that will be called when a mirror "fails", meaning the grabber raises some URLGrabError. If this is a tuple, it is interpreted to be of the form (cb, args, kwargs) where cb is the actual callable object (function, method, etc). Otherwise, it is assumed to be the callable object itself. The callback will be passed a grabber.CallbackObject instance along with args and kwargs (if present). The following attributes are defined withing the instance: obj.exception = < exception that was raised > obj.mirror = < the mirror that was tried > obj.relative_url = < url relative to the mirror > obj.url = < full url that failed > # .url is just the combination of .mirror # and .relative_url The failure callback can return an action dict, as described above. Like default_action, the failure_callback can be set at instantiation time or when the urlXXX method is called. In the latter case, it applies only for that fetch. The callback can re-raise the exception quite easily. For example, this is a perfectly adequate callback function: def callback(obj): raise obj.exception WARNING: do not save the exception object (or the CallbackObject instance). As they contain stack frame references, they can lead to circular references. Notes: * The behavior can be customized by deriving and overriding the 'CONFIGURATION METHODS' * The 'grabber' instance is kept as a reference, not copied. Therefore, the grabber instance can be modified externally and changes will take effect immediately. """ # notes on thread-safety: # A GrabRequest should never be shared by multiple threads because # it's never saved inside the MG object and never returned outside it. # therefore, it should be safe to access/modify grabrequest data # without a lock. However, accessing the mirrors and _next attributes # of the MG itself must be done when locked to prevent (for example) # removal of the wrong mirror. ############################################################## # CONFIGURATION METHODS - intended to be overridden to # customize behavior def __init__(self, grabber, mirrors, **kwargs): """Initialize the MirrorGroup object.
