devel/py-multipart 0.2.4_1 MidnightBSD

Multipart provides a parser for the multipart/form-data format. It can read from a file, a socket or a WSGI environment. The parser can be used to replace cgi.FieldStorage to work around its limitations.

Features:

• Parses multipart/form-data and application/x-www-form-urlencoded.
• Produces useful error messages in 'strict'-mode.
• Gracefully handle uploads of unknown size (missing Content-Length header).
• Fast memory mapped files (io.BytesIO) for small uploads.
• Temporary files on disk for big uploads.
• Memory and disk resource limits to prevent DOS attacks.
• Fixes many shortcomings and bugs of cgi.FieldStorage.
• 100% test coverage.
