There is this server I made with Twisted which receives strings from a client and send it to all of the other connected clients. But is there a way to send the string to just clients that the sender wanted to send it to ? If so, how do I do it in code ? This is what I did so far (NOTE I am a complete noob in Python. I just need to build a server for my iOS app, so I am sorry if the question is silly):
from twisted.internet.protocol import Protocol, Factory
from twisted.internet import reactor
class IphoneChat(Protocol):
def connectionMade(self):
#self.transport.write("""connected""")
self.factory.clients.append(self)
print "clients are ", self.factory.clients
def connectionLost(self, reason):
self.factory.clients.remove(self)
def dataReceived(self, data):
#print "data is ", data
a = data.split(':')
if len(a) > 1:
command = a[0]
content = a[1]
msg = ""
if command == "iam":
self.name = content
msg = "iam" + self.name + " has joined"
elif command == "msg":
msg = self.name + ": " + content
elif command == "img":
msg = command + ":" + content + ":" + command
elif command == "img2":
msg = content
elif command == "img3":
msg = content
print msg
for c in self.factory.clients:
c.message(msg)
def message(self, message):
self.transport.write(message + '\n')
factory = Factory()
factory.protocol = IphoneChat
factory.clients = []
reactor.listenTCP(53080, factory)
print "Iphone Chat server started"
reactor.run()
Thanks for the help
I think should work
