some "monkey overriding" might help:
# start
import xmlrpclib
class MyConnection:
def __init__(self, conn):
self.conn = conn
def send(self, data):
# split send up in pieces
for i in range(0, len(data), 100):
print "(%d of %d)" % (i, len(data)),
self.conn.send(data[i:i+100])
print
def __getattr__(self, key):
# delegate everything else
return getattr(self.conn, key)
class MyTransport(xmlrpclib.Transport):
def make_connection(self, host):
conn = xmlrpclib.Transport.make_connection(self, host)
return MyConnection(conn)
server = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy(
"http://effbot.org/rpc/echo.cgi";, transport=MyTransport()
)
x = server.echo(10000*"*")
print type(x), len(x)
# this prints
# (0 of 10148) (100 of 10148) (200 of 10148) ... /snip/
# <type 'str'> 10000
</F>
