gcs-oauth2-boto-plugin is a Python application whose purpose is to behave as an
auth plugin for the boto auth plugin framework for use with OAuth 2.0
credentials for the Google Cloud Platform. This plugin is compatible with both
user accounts and service accounts, and its functionality is essentially a
wrapper around oauth2client with the addition of automatically caching tokens
for the machine in a thread- and process-safe fashion.
Part of PR pkg/52941.
From DESCR:
This Python module allows you to create TCP connections through a SOCKS proxy
without any special effort.
This is needed as one of the dependencies of py-gsutil, as noted in
PR pkg/52941.
gsutil is a Python application that lets you access Google Cloud Storage and
Amazon S3 from the command line. You can use gsutil to do a wide range of
bucket and object management tasks, including:
* Creating and deleting buckets
* Uploading, downloading, and deleting objects
* Listing buckets and objects
* Moving, copying, and renaming objects
* Editing object and bucket ACLs
Proposed by Nils Ratusznik in June on tech-pkg. In short, the rules are
from 2012; they are too outdated to be useful.
No one spoke up for keeping the package. If you want to bring it back,
feel free to do so, after updating it.
- no upstream activity for 4 years
- net/ruby-twitter gem includes the same functionality
- the only consumer net/ruby-tw no longer requires this gem
(switched to using userstream in twitter gem)
Bonjour provides service advertising and discovery on the local
network via multicast DNS. These files use SWIG to provide a Python
interface for use by applications to interact with Bonjour.through
mDNSResponder.
gevent.httplib support was removed in gevent 1.0, geventhttpclient now provides
that missing functionality.
geventhttpclient uses a fast http parser, written in C, originating from nginx,
extracted and modified by Joyent.
geventhttpclient has been specifically designed for high concurrency, streaming
and support HTTP 1.1 persistent connections. More generally it is designed for
efficiently pulling from REST APIs and streaming APIs like Twitter's.
Safe SSL support is provided by default. geventhttpclient depends on the
certifi CA Bundle. This is the same CA Bundle which ships with the Requests
codebase, and is derived from Mozilla Firefox's canonical set.
Inetutils is a collection of common network programs. It includes:
* An ftp client and server.
* A telnet client and server.
* An rsh client and server.
* An rlogin client and server.
* A tftp client and server.
* And much more...
Most of them are improved versions of programs originally from BSD.
Some others are original versions, written from scratch.
