| Cookie documentation, small correction
--------------------------------------
Key: MODPYTHON-42
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-42
Project: mod_python
Type: Bug
Components: documentation
Versions: 3.2.0
Environment: Documentation found on the mod_python website
Reporter: Vivian De Smedt
Priority: Minor
Dear mod_python developper,
I just want notify you a small mistakes the Cookie module documentation.
The sample section use the get_cookie api instead of the get_cookies one.
In consequence the following section:
from mod_python import apache, Cookie
def handler(req):
cookies = Cookie.get_cookie(req, Cookie.MarshalCookie,
secret='secret007')
if cookies.has_key('spam'):
spamcookie = cookies['spam']
req.write('Great, a spam cookie was found: %s\n' \
% str(spamcookie))
if type(spamcookie) is Cookie.MarshalCookie:
req.write('Here is what it looks like decoded: %s=%s\n'
% (spamcookie.name, spamcookie.value))
else:
req.write('WARNING: The cookie found is not a \
MarshalCookie, it may have been tapered with!')
else:
# MarshaCookie allows value to be any marshallable object
value = {'egg_count': 32, 'color': 'white'}
Cookie.add_cookie(req, Cookie.MarshalCookie('spam', value, \
'secret007'))
req.write('Spam cookie not found, but we just set one!\n')
return apache.OK
should be rewritten:
from mod_python import apache, Cookie
def handler(req):
cookies = Cookie.get_cookie*s*(req, Cookie.MarshalCookie,
secret='secret007')
if cookies.has_key('spam'):
spamcookie = cookies['spam']
req.write('Great, a spam cookie was found: %s\n' \
% str(spamcookie))
if type(spamcookie) is Cookie.MarshalCookie:
req.write('Here is what it looks like decoded: %s=%s\n'
% (spamcookie.name, spamcookie.value))
else:
req.write('WARNING: The cookie found is not a \
MarshalCookie, it may have been tapered with!')
else:
# MarshaCookie allows value to be any marshallable object
value = {'egg_count': 32, 'color': 'white'}
Cookie.add_cookie(req, Cookie.MarshalCookie('spam', value, \
'secret007'))
req.write('Spam cookie not found, but we just set one!\n')
return apache.OK
Thanks for your nice module,
Vivian.
