socket — 低階網路介面

原始碼：Lib/socket.py

這個模組提供了操作 BSD socket 的介面。這在所有現代 Unix 系統、Windows、MacOS，以及一些其他平台上都可用。

備註

由於是呼叫作業系統的 socket API，某些行為可能會因平台而有所差異。

可用性: not WASI.

此模組在 WebAssembly 平台上不起作用或無法使用。更多資訊請參閱 WebAssembly 平台。

Python 的介面是將 Unix 的系統呼叫和 socket 函式庫介面直接轉換成 Python 的物件導向風格：socket() 函式會回傳一個 socket 物件，這個物件的方法實作了各種 socket 系統呼叫。與 C 語言介面相比，參數型別較為高階：就像 Python 文件操作中的 read() 和 write() 一樣，接收操作時會自動分配緩衝區，而發送操作時的緩衝區長度則是隱含的。

Socket 系列家族

Depending on the system and the build options, various socket families are supported by this module.

The address format required by a particular socket object is automatically selected based on the address family specified when the socket object was created. Socket addresses are represented as follows:

  • The address of an AF_UNIX socket bound to a file system node is represented as a string, using the file system encoding and the 'surrogateescape' error handler (see PEP 383). An address in Linux's abstract namespace is returned as a bytes-like object with an initial null byte; note that sockets in this namespace can communicate with normal file system sockets, so programs intended to run on Linux may need to deal with both types of address. A string or bytes-like object can be used for either type of address when passing it as an argument.

    在 3.3 版的變更: Previously, AF_UNIX socket paths were assumed to use UTF-8 encoding.

    在 3.5 版的變更: Writable bytes-like object is now accepted.

  • A pair (host, port) is used for the AF_INET address family, where host is a string representing either a hostname in internet domain notation like 'daring.cwi.nl' or an IPv4 address like '100.50.200.5', and port is an integer.

    • For IPv4 addresses, two special forms are accepted instead of a host address: '' represents INADDR_ANY, which is used to bind to all interfaces, and the string '<broadcast>' represents INADDR_BROADCAST. This behavior is not compatible with IPv6, therefore, you may want to avoid these if you intend to support IPv6 with your Python programs.

  • For AF_INET6 address family, a four-tuple (host, port, flowinfo, scope_id) is used, where flowinfo and scope_id represent the sin6_flowinfo and sin6_scope_id members in struct sockaddr_in6 in C. For socket module methods, flowinfo and scope_id can be omitted just for backward compatibility. Note, however, omission of scope_id can cause problems in manipulating scoped IPv6 addresses.

    在 3.7 版的變更: For multicast addresses (with scope_id meaningful) address may not contain %scope_id (or zone id) part. This information is superfluous and may be safely omitted (recommended).

  • AF_NETLINK socket 會以成對的 (pid, groups) 來表示。

  • Linux-only support for TIPC is available using the AF_TIPC address family. TIPC is an open, non-IP based networked protocol designed for use in clustered computer environments. Addresses are represented by a tuple, and the fields depend on the address type. The general tuple form is (addr_type, v1, v2, v3 [, scope]), where:

    • addr_type is one of TIPC_ADDR_NAMESEQ, TIPC_ADDR_NAME, or TIPC_ADDR_ID.

    • scope is one of TIPC_ZONE_SCOPE, TIPC_CLUSTER_SCOPE, and TIPC_NODE_SCOPE.

    • If addr_type is TIPC_ADDR_NAME, then v1 is the server type, v2 is the port identifier, and v3 should be 0.

      If addr_type is TIPC_ADDR_NAMESEQ, then v1 is the server type, v2 is the lower port number, and v3 is the upper port number.

      If addr_type is TIPC_ADDR_ID, then v1 is the node, v2 is the reference, and v3 should be set to 0.

  • A tuple (interface, ) is used for the AF_CAN address family, where interface is a string representing a network interface name like 'can0'. The network interface name '' can be used to receive packets from all network interfaces of this family.

    • CAN_ISOTP protocol requires a tuple (interface, rx_addr, tx_addr) where both additional parameters are unsigned long integer that represent a CAN identifier (standard or extended).

    • CAN_J1939 protocol requires a tuple (interface, name, pgn, addr) where additional parameters are 64-bit unsigned integer representing the ECU name, a 32-bit unsigned integer representing the Parameter Group Number (PGN), and an 8-bit integer representing the address.

  • A string or a tuple (id, unit) is used for the SYSPROTO_CONTROL protocol of the PF_SYSTEM family. The string is the name of a kernel control using a dynamically assigned ID. The tuple can be used if ID and unit number of the kernel control are known or if a registered ID is used.

    在 3.3 版被加入.

  • AF_BLUETOOTH supports the following protocols and address formats:

    • BTPROTO_L2CAP accepts a tuple (bdaddr, psm[, cid[, bdaddr_type]]) where:
