Functions

IPython.kernel.scripts.ipcontroller.get_temp_furlfile(filename)

IPython.kernel.scripts.ipcontroller.init_config()

Initialize the configuration using default and command line options.

IPython.kernel.scripts.ipcontroller.main()

After creating the configuration information, start the controller.

IPython.kernel.scripts.ipcontroller.make_client_service(controller_service, config)

Create a service that will listen for clients.

This service is simply a foolscap.Tub instance that has a set of Referenceables registered with it.

IPython.kernel.scripts.ipcontroller.make_engine_service(controller_service, config)

Create a service that will listen for engines.

This service is simply a foolscap.Tub instance that has a set of Referenceables registered with it.

IPython.kernel.scripts.ipcontroller.make_tub(ip, port, secure, cert_file)

Create a listening tub given an ip, port, and cert_file location.

Parameters:

ip : str

IPython.kernel.scripts.ipcontroller.start_controller()

Start the controller by creating the service hierarchy and starting the reactor.

This method does the following:

• It starts the controller logging
• In execute an import statement for the controller
• It creates 2 foolscap.Tub instances for the client and the engines and registers foolscap.Referenceables with the tubs to expose the controller to engines and clients.
