Sending data between server and client in twisted

Question

I am trying to transfer data between server and client implemented using twisted. As far as I know, using self.transport.write ([data]) will only work if the data is a string. Is there any other way to send an object of a different type? Thank!

Answer 1

Sockets carry bytes. This is the only thing they carry. Any two TCP connection endpoints can only transmit bytes to each other.

Bytes are not the most useful data structure for each form of communication. Thus, in addition to this byte transport, we invent formatting and interpretation schemes for bytes. These are the protocols.
