4 |
|
---|
5 | >>> from nntplib import NNTP
|
---|
6 | >>> s = NNTP('news')
|
---|
7 | >>> resp, count, first, last, name = s.group('comp.lang.python')

8 | >>> print 'Group', name, 'has', count, 'articles, range', first, 'to', last

10 | >>> resp, subs = s.xhdr('subject', first + '-' + last)

11 | >>> resp = s.quit()
|
---|
12 | >>>

13 |

14 | Here 'resp' is the server response line.
|

15 | Error responses are turned into exceptions.

16 |

17 | To post an article from a file:

18 | >>> f = open(filename, 'r') # file containing article, including header

19 | >>> resp = s.post(f)

---|
20 | >>>

23 | Note that all arguments and return values representing article numbers
