Other Interfaces¶
- interface
IAuthenticationPolicy
[source]¶An object representing a Pyramid authentication policy.
remember
(request, principal, **kw)¶Return a set of headers suitable for ‘remembering’ the principal named
principal
when set in a response. An individual authentication policy and its consumers can decide on the composition and meaning of**kw.
authenticated_userid
(request)¶Return the authenticated userid or
None
if no authenticated userid can be found. This method of the policy should ensure that a record exists in whatever persistent store is used related to the user (the user should not have been deleted); if a record associated with the current id does not exist in a persistent store, it should returnNone
.
unauthenticated_userid
(request)¶Return the unauthenticated userid. This method performs the same duty as
authenticated_userid
but is permitted to return the userid based only on data present in the request; it needn’t (and shouldn’t) check any persistent store to ensure that the user record related to the request userid exists.
effective_principals
(request)¶Return a sequence representing the effective principals including the userid and any groups belonged to by the current user, including ‘system’ groups such as Everyone and Authenticated.
forget
(request)¶Return a set of headers suitable for ‘forgetting’ the current user on subsequent requests.
- interface
IAuthorizationPolicy
[source]¶An object representing a Pyramid authorization policy.
principals_allowed_by_permission
(context, permission)¶Return a set of principal identifiers allowed by the
permission
incontext
. This behavior is optional; if you choose to not implement it you should define this method as something which raises aNotImplementedError
. This method will only be called when thepyramid.security.principals_allowed_by_permission
API is used.
permits
(context, principals, permission)¶Return
True
if any of theprincipals
is allowed thepermission
in the currentcontext
, else returnFalse
- interface
IExceptionResponse
[source]¶Extends:
pyramid.interfaces.IException
,pyramid.interfaces.IResponse
An interface representing a WSGI response which is also an exception object. Register an exception view using this interface as a
context
to apply the registered view for all exception types raised by Pyramid internally (any exception that inherits frompyramid.response.Response
, includingpyramid.httpexceptions.HTTPNotFound
andpyramid.httpexceptions.HTTPForbidden
).
prepare
(environ)¶Prepares the response for being called as a WSGI application
- interface
IRoute
[source]¶Interface representing the type of object returned from
IRoutesMapper.get_route
name
¶The route name
pattern
¶The route pattern
factory
¶The root factory used by the Pyramid router when this route matches (or
None
)
generate
(kw)¶Generate a URL based on filling in the dynamic segment markers in the pattern using the
kw
dictionary provided.
pregenerator
¶This attribute should either be
None
or a callable object implementing theIRoutePregenerator
interface
predicates
¶A sequence of route predicate objects used to determine if a request matches this route or not after basic pattern matching has been completed.
match
(path)¶If the
path
passed to this function can be matched by thepattern
of this route, return a dictionary (the ‘matchdict’), which will contain keys representing the dynamic segment markers in the pattern mapped to values extracted from the providedpath
.If the
path
passed to this function cannot be matched by thepattern
of this route, returnNone
.
- interface
IRoutePregenerator
[source]¶
__call__
(request, elements, kw)¶A pregenerator is a function associated by a developer with a route. The pregenerator for a route is called by
pyramid.request.Request.route_url()
in order to adjust the set of arguments passed to it by the user for special purposes, such as Pylons ‘subdomain’ support. It will influence the URL returned byroute_url
.A pregenerator should return a two-tuple of
(elements, kw)
after examining the originals passed to this function, which are the arguments(request, elements, kw)
. The simplest pregenerator is:def pregenerator(request, elements, kw): return elements, kwYou can employ a pregenerator by passing a
pregenerator
argument to thepyramid.config.Configurator.add_route()
function.
- interface
ISession
[source]¶Extends:
pyramid.interfaces.IDict
An interface representing a session (a web session object, usually accessed via
request.session
.Keys and values of a session must be pickleable.
invalidate
()¶Invalidate the session. The action caused by
invalidate
is implementation-dependent, but it should have the effect of completely dissociating any data stored in the session with the current request. It might set response values (such as one which clears a cookie), or it might not.
flash
(msg, queue='', allow_duplicate=True)¶Push a flash message onto the end of the flash queue represented by
queue
. An alternate flash message queue can used by passing an optionalqueue
, which must be a string. Ifallow_duplicate
is false, if themsg
already exists in the queue, it will not be readded.
created
¶Integer representing Epoch time when created.
changed
()¶Mark the session as changed. A user of a session should call this method after he or she mutates a mutable object that is a value of the session (it should not be required after mutating the session itself). For example, if the user has stored a dictionary in the session under the key
foo
, and he or she doessession['foo'] = {}
,changed()
needn’t be called. However, if subsequently he or she doessession['foo']['a'] = 1
,changed()
must be called for the sessioning machinery to notice the mutation of the internal dictionary.
get_csrf_token
()¶Return a random cross-site request forgery protection token. It will be a string. If a token was previously added to the session via
new_csrf_token
, that token will be returned. If no CSRF token was previously set into the session,new_csrf_token
will be called, which will create and set a token, and this token will be returned.
peek_flash
(queue='')¶Peek at a queue in the flash storage. The queue remains in flash storage after this message is called. The queue is returned; it is a list of flash messages added by
pyramid.interfaces.ISession.flash()
new_csrf_token
()¶Create and set into the session a new, random cross-site request forgery protection token. Return the token. It will be a string.
new
¶Boolean attribute. If
True
, the session is new.
pop_flash
(queue='')¶Pop a queue from the flash storage. The queue is removed from flash storage after this message is called. The queue is returned; it is a list of flash messages added by
pyramid.interfaces.ISession.flash()

to provide a plugpoint to extension developers who want to modify potential view callable invocation signatures and response values.
- interface
IViewMapper
[source]¶
__call__
(self, object)¶Provided with an arbitrary object (a function, class, or instance), returns a callable with the call signature
(context, request)
. The callable returned should itself return a Response object. An IViewMapper is returned bypyramid.interfaces.IViewMapperFactory
.

IIntrospectable
[source]¶An introspectable object used for configuration introspection. In addition to the methods below, objects which implement this interface must also implement all the methods of Python’s
collections.MutableMapping
(the “dictionary interface”), and must be hashable.
register
(introspector, action_info)¶Register this IIntrospectable with an introspector. This method is invoked during action execution. Adds the introspectable and its relations to the introspector.
introspector
should be an object implementing IIntrospector.action_info
should be a object implementing the interfacepyramid.interfaces.IActionInfo
representing the call that registered this introspectable. Pseudocode for an implementation of this method:def register(self, introspector, action_info): self.action_info = action_info introspector.add(self) for methodname, category_name, discriminator in self._relations: method = getattr(introspector, methodname) method((i.category_name, i.discriminator), (category_name, discriminator))
discriminator_hash
¶an integer hash of the discriminator
title
¶Text title describing this introspectable
relate
(category_name, discriminator)¶Indicate an intent to relate this IIntrospectable with another IIntrospectable (the one associated with the
category_name
anddiscriminator
) during action execution.
type_name
¶Text type name describing this introspectable
unrelate
(category_name, discriminator)¶Indicate an intent to break the relationship between this IIntrospectable with another IIntrospectable (the one associated with the
category_name
anddiscriminator
) during action execution.
action_info
¶An IActionInfo object representing the caller that invoked the creation of this introspectable (usually a sentinel until updated during self.register)
__hash__
()¶Introspectables must be hashable. The typical implementation of an introsepectable’s __hash__ is:
return hash((self.category_name,) + (self.discriminator,))
discriminator
¶introspectable discriminator (within category) (must be hashable)
order
¶integer order in which registered with introspector (managed by introspector, usually)
category_name
¶introspection category name
- interface
IIntrospector
[source]¶
get
(category_name, discriminator, default=None)¶Get the IIntrospectable related to the category_name and the discriminator (or discriminator hash)
discriminator
. If it does not exist in the introspector, return the value ofdefault
relate
(*pairs)¶Given any number of
(category_name, discriminator)
pairs passed as positional arguments, relate the associated introspectables to each other. The introspectable related to each pair must have already been added via.add
or.add_intr
; aKeyError
will result if this is not true. An error will not be raised if any pair has already been associated with another.This method is not typically called directly, instead it’s called indirectly by
pyramid.interfaces.IIntrospector.register()
get_category
(category_name, default=None, sort_key=None)¶Get a sequence of dictionaries in the form
[{'introspectable':IIntrospectable, 'related':[sequence of related IIntrospectables]}, ...]
where each introspectable is part of the category associated withcategory_name
.If the category named
category_name
does not exist in the introspector the value passed asdefault
will be returned.If
sort_key
isNone
, the sequence will be returned in the order the introspectables were added to the introspector. Otherwise, sort_key should be a function that accepts an IIntrospectable and returns a value from it (ala thekey
function of Python’ssorted
callable).
unrelate
(*pairs)¶Given any number of
(category_name, discriminator)
pairs passed as positional arguments, unrelate the associated introspectables from each other. The introspectable related to each pair must have already been added via.add
or.add_intr
; aKeyError
will result if this is not true. An error will not be raised if any pair is not already related to another.This method is not typically called directly, instead it’s called indirectly by
pyramid.interfaces.IIntrospector.register()
remove
(category_name, discriminator)¶Remove the IIntrospectable related to
category_name
anddiscriminator
from the introspector, and fix up any relations that the introspectable participates in. This method will not raise an error if an introspectable related to the category name and discriminator does not exist.
add
(intr)¶Add the IIntrospectable
intr
(use instead ofpyramid.interfaces.IIntrospector.add()
when you have a custom IIntrospectable). Replaces any existing introspectable registered using the same category/discriminator.This method is not typically called directly, instead it’s called indirectly by
pyramid.interfaces.IIntrospector.register()
Return a sequence of IIntrospectables related to the IIntrospectable
intr
. Return the empty sequence if no relations for exist.
categorized
(sort_key=None)¶Get a sequence of tuples in the form
[(category_name, [{'introspectable':IIntrospectable, 'related':[sequence of related IIntrospectables]}, ...])]
representing all known introspectables. Ifsort_key
isNone
, each introspectables sequence will be returned in the order the introspectables were added to the introspector. Otherwise, sort_key should be a function that accepts an IIntrospectable and returns a value from it (ala thekey
function of Python’ssorted
callable).
categories
()¶Return a sorted sequence of category names known by this introspector
- interface
IActionInfo
[source]¶Class which provides code introspection capability associated with an action. The ParserInfo class used by ZCML implements the same interface.

None
if the value could not be determined.
file
¶Filename of action-invoking code as a string
__str__
()¶Return a representation of the action information (including source code from file, if possible)
- interface
