oops sorry I mean, "gotLength"

ok. so I'm assuming that in hCC, I'm doing some sort of incremental MIME parsing and putting the file into the target file?

sorry this interface is not super well documented, I always have to read HTTPChannel to remember it, and then I forget parts of it are actually in HTTPChannel

_moshez: right so that's the second problem, Request.requestReceived calls 'cgi.parse_multipart'

glyph: sounds like that's the part where I steal/borrow bits from django to stream-parse mime?

ok I'm not sure we got into real regrets territory yet, so I'm guessing that's coming up?

_moshez: right.

if you think feed-parsing MIME is easy and fun then great, you're done

so I doubt you're going to regret this

also worth mentioning, however, is https://github.com/twisted/klein/pull/181

oh hrm

maybe you should just work with wsanchez to make that One Hundred Per Cent For Real

it's not far

review https://github.com/twisted/klein/pull/199 and it's like halfway there

You mean https://github.com/twisted/klein/pull/181

But 199 is a subset, me trying to get someone to actually approve something

does #181 require twisted depend on tubes?

is that going to be a blocker?

181 requires tubes

runciter: it requires klein depend on tubes :)

runciter: I doubt it's going to be much of a blocker

But it's in Klein right now, not Twisted

runciter: there's a point where we need to do a switcheroo

glyph: the streaming part is a lie without giving t.w.http.Request a streaming body :(

It's starting by defining the API

The implementation underneath can then catch up

once the API exists, it will be pretty easy to adjust the implementation in the way I just said

wsanchez: yeah, you've done the hardest part :)

you just need to create an explicit opt-in API

runciter: No the hardest part is getting it reviewed ;-)

i'm still interested in making a streaming version of t.w.http.Request - that's why i ask

(To be fair it's been reviewed by a few folks.)

I want to kill t.w.http.Request (and t.w.server.Request) with a knife while it sleeps

Instantiating one of those requires a Ph.D. in jank

no complaints here

ok cool, I'll try to find some time to look at these things and see if I can help push them forward

on a personal note, it's so weird for me to have a conversation about http on #twisted :)

I still remember the days where it was all "#twisted-web is that way"

I'm an old I guess.

hopefully that will be useful for WSGI too, and then we can put warehouse behind twisted WSGI :)

I remember those days.

we just need everyone involved in this conversation (HI SIMPSON) to review one ticket a week :)

glyph: See, this is why I never remember things. It just causes me to remember how much stuff is on my plate.

ah thursday.

_moshez: yeah, twisted.web is gradually getting deprecated :)

sorry

#twisted.web

I mean

and twisted-web, the mailing list

You realize that a _literal_decade_ago_, we were all talking about this same damn thing.

foom: twisted prevails

Or was it a decade and a half.

Does it? It still can't stream-parse file uploads. :)

foom: Further evidence that it's a hard problem, I guess.

Well, there's tubes now, so that's progress.

foom: wsanchez is surprisingly close to done on this PR, even

"New stream stuff. *THIS* one is good for *sure*."

(spoilers: nope)

foom: Today I realized that I can *reuse* a stream library for a thing. My elation was nearly palpable.
