Chapter 15. The End
We’ve reached the end of our tour through the Twisted library.
We started with an overview of Twisted’s architecture and the event-driven programming model. We practiced using Twisted’s primitives and common idioms to write basic clients and servers, and then built up and deployed production-grade servers that log, authenticate, talk to databases, and more. We finished by surveying client and server implementations for several popular protocols.
You now have all of the tools you need to build and deploy event-driven clients and servers for any protocol, and I think you’ll find that to be a powerful tool to have in your back pocket. Twisted powers everything from networked game engines and streaming media servers to web crawling frameworks and continuous integration systems to BitTorrent clients and AMQP peers. The next time you need to programmaticaly download data from a website, test an HTTP client, process your email, or annoy your friends with an IRC bot, you know what to do.
