Usage
The intended use is for making sure your unit tests don’t make network connections. Activate sockfilter with a predicate like:
# only allow http connections to localhost
def socket_address_allowed(address):
return (address.host in ['localhost', '127.0.0.1'] and
address.port == 80)
sockfilter.enable(socket_address_allowed)Any subsequent attempts to open a connection at an address not satisfying the predicate will raise sockfilter.SockFilterError.
with_sockfiltering decorator
from sockfilter import with_sockfiltering
@with_sockfiltering(socket_address_allowed)
def test_foo():
foo()sockfiltering context manager
from sockfilter import sockfiltering

import sockfilter
from unittest import TestCase
class FooTest(TestCase):
def setUp(self):
sockfilter.enable(socket_address_allowed)
def tearDown(self):
sockfilter.disable()
def test_foo(self):
foo()Under the hood
Sockfilter works by monkey-patching Python’s socket library, inspired by HTTPretty.
