Netcgi.cgi class with FCGI specific methods.
method role : [ `Authorizer | `Filter | `Responder ]
A FastCGI application can fulfill each of the following three
roles:
`Responder: This is the usual role. In this case the
application is expected to act like a CGI program: It receives
all the information associated with an HTTP request and
generates an HTTP response.
`Authorizer: An Authorizer FastCGI application receives
all the information associated with an HTTP request and
generates an authorized/unauthorized decision.
`Filter: A Filter FastCGI application receives all the
information associated with an HTTP request, plus an extra
stream of data from a file stored on the Web server, and
generates a "filtered" version of the data stream as an HTTP
response.
method data : Netchannels.in_obj_channel
This the the channel on which the filter data is available.
All methods of the object raise
Netchannels.Closed_channel
if the role is not
`Filter.
method data_length : int
How many bytes of the data are available.
method data_mtime : float
The data last modification time, expressed as an integer
number of seconds since the epoch (January 1, 1970 UTC).
