Initial knowledge of socket programming
First, preface
The socket is based on the programming model of the C\S architecture (client \ Server), which is present in Python as a socket module.
A socket is an intermediate software abstraction layer that the application layer communicates with the TCP/IP protocol family, which is a set of interfaces. In design mode, thesocket is actually a façade mode, it is the complex TCP/IP protocol family hidden behind the socket interface, for the user, a set of simple interface is all, let the socket to organize data to meet the specified protocol.
So, we do not need to understand the TCP/UDP protocol, the socket has been packaged for us, we only need to follow the socket rules to program, write the program is naturally follow the TCP/UDP standard.
Second, socket type
Socket format:
Socket (Family,type[,protocal]) creates a socket with the given address family, socket type, protocol number (default = 0).
Second, the socket function
Note the point:
1) When TCP sends data, a TCP connection is established, so you do not need to specify an address. UDP is for non-connected, each time it is sent to specify who to send.
2) server and client cannot send list, tuple, dictionary directly. Requires string repr (data)
3, Socket programming ideas
TCP Service side:
1 creating sockets, binding sockets to local IP and ports
# Socket.socket (Socket.af_inet,socket. SOCK_STREAM), S.bind ()
2 Start listening for connection #s. Listen ()
3 Enter the loop and continuously accept the client's connection request #s. Accept ()
4 then receive the incoming data, and send the data #s. recv (), S.sendall ()
5 When the transfer is complete, close the socket #s. Close ()
TCP Client:
1 creating sockets, connecting remote addresses
# Socket.socket (Socket.af_inet,socket. SOCK_STREAM), S.connect ()
2 Send data and receive data after connection # S.sendall (), S.RECV ()
3 When the transfer is complete, close the socket #s. Close ()
UDP Service Side
SS = Socket (Socket.af_inet,socket. SOCK_DGRAM) #创建一个服务器的套接字ss. bind () #绑定服务器套接字inf_loop: #服务器无限循环 cs = Ss.recvfrom ()/ss.sendto () # Dialog ( Receive and send) Ss.close () # Close Server sockets
UDP client
CS = socket (socket.af_inet,socket. SOCK_DGRAM) # Create client socket Comm_loop: # Communication Loop Cs.sendto ()/cs.recvfrom () # Dialog (send/Receive) Cs.close () # Close client sockets
