""" Utility functions to work with HTTP headers.
This module provides some utility functions useful for parsing
and dealing with some of the HTTP 1.1 protocol headers which
are not adequately covered by the standard Python libraries.
Requires Python 2.2 or later.
The functionality includes the correct interpretation of the various
Accept-* style headers, content negotiation, byte range requests,
HTTP-style date/times, and more.
There are a few classes defined by this module:
* class content_type -- media types such as 'text/plain'
* class language_tag -- language tags such as 'en-US'
* class range_set -- a collection of (byte) range specifiers
* class range_spec -- a single (byte) range specifier
The primary functions in this module may be categorized as follows:
* Content negotiation functions...
* acceptable_content_type()
* acceptable_language()
* acceptable_charset()
* acceptable_encoding()
* Mid-level header parsing functions...
* parse_accept_header()
* parse_accept_language_header()
* parse_range_header()
* Date and time...
* http_datetime()
* parse_http_datetime()
* Utility functions...
* quote_string()
* remove_comments()
* canonical_charset()
* Low level string parsing functions...
* parse_comma_list()
* parse_comment()
* parse_qvalue_accept_list()
* parse_media_type()
* parse_number()
* parse_parameter_list()
* parse_quoted_string()
* parse_range_set()
* parse_range_spec()
* parse_token()
* parse_token_or_quoted_string()
And there are some specialized exception classes:
* RangeUnsatisfiableError
* RangeUnmergableError
* ParseError

Note: I have made a small modification on the regexp for internet date,
to make it more liberal (ie, accept a time zone string of the form +0000)

other web frameworks may provide other methods of obtaining it.
Optionally the accept_header parameter can be pre-parsed, as
returned from the parse_accept_header() function in this module.
The content_types argument should either be a single MIME media
type string, or a sequence of them. It represents the set of
content types that the caller (server) is willing to send.
Generally, the server content_types should not contain any
wildcarded values.
This function determines which content type which is the most
preferred and is acceptable to both the user agent and the server.
If one is negotiated it will return a four-valued tuple like:
(server_content_type, ua_content_range, qvalue, accept_parms)
The first tuple value is one of the server's content_types, while
the remaining tuple values descript which of the client's
acceptable content_types was matched. In most cases accept_parms
will be an empty list (see description of parse_accept_header()
for more details).
If no content type could be negotiated, then this function will
return None (and the caller should typically cause an HTTP 406 Not
Acceptable as a response).
Note that the wildcarded content type "*/*" sent by the client
will be ignored, since it is often incorrectly sent by web
browsers that don't really mean it. To override this, call with
ignore_wildcard=False. Partial wildcards such as "image/*" will
always be processed, but be at a lower priority than a complete

"""Determines if the given language is acceptable to the user agent.
The accept_header should be the value present in the HTTP
"Accept-Language:" header. In mod_python this is typically
obtained from the req.http_headers_in table; in WSGI it is
environ["Accept-Language"]; other web frameworks may provide other
methods of obtaining it.
Optionally the accept_header parameter can be pre-parsed, as
returned by the parse_accept_language_header() function defined in
this module.
The server_languages argument should either be a single language
string, a language_tag object, or a sequence of them. It
represents the set of languages that the server is willing to
send to the user agent.
Note that the wildcarded language tag "*" will be ignored. To
override this, call with ignore_wildcard=False, and even then
it will be the lowest-priority choice regardless of it's
quality factor (as per HTTP spec).
If the assume_superiors is True then it the languages that the
browser accepts will automatically include all superior languages.
Any superior languages which must be added are done so with one
half the qvalue of the language which is present. For example, if
the accept string is "en-US", then it will be treated as if it
were "en-US, en;q=0.5". Note that although the HTTP 1.1 spec says
that browsers are supposed to encourage users to configure all
acceptable languages, sometimes they don't, thus the ability
for this function to assume this. But setting assume_superiors
to False will insure strict adherence to the HTTP 1.1 spec; which
means that if the browser accepts "en-US", then it will not
be acceptable to send just "en" to it.
This function returns the language which is the most prefered and
is acceptable to both the user agent and the caller. It will
return None if no language is negotiable, otherwise the return
value is always an instance of language_tag.
