search in docstrings

Search bar offers the following options:

- Term presence. The below example searches for documents that must contain “foo”, might contain “bar” and must not contain “baz”: `+foo bar -baz`
- Wildcards. The below example searches for documents with words beginning with “foo”: `foo*`
- Search in specific fields. The following search matches all objects in "twisted.mail" that matches “search”: `+qname:twisted.mail.* +search`

  Possible fields: 'name', 'qname' (fully qualified name), 'docstring', and 'kind'. Last two fields are only applicable if "search in docstrings" is enabled.

- Fuzzy matches. The following search matches all documents that have a word within 1 edit distance of “foo”: `foo~1`

Method | `__init__` | No summary
Method | `lookupAllRecords` | Perform an ALL_RECORD lookup.
Instance Variable | `resolvers` | Undocumented
Method | `_lookup` | Build a `dns.Query` for the given parameters and dispatch it to each `IResolver` in `self.resolvers` until an answer or `error.AuthoritativeDomainError` is returned.

Inherited from `ResolverBase`:

def __init__(self, resolvers): (source)
overrides `twisted.names.common.ResolverBase.__init__`

Parameters
resolvers:`list` | A `list` of `IResolver` providers.

def lookupAllRecords(self, name, timeout=None): (source)
from `twisted.internet.interfaces.IResolver`
overrides `twisted.names.common.ResolverBase.lookupAllRecords`

Perform an ALL_RECORD lookup.

Parameters
name | DNS name to resolve.
timeout | Number of seconds after which to reissue the query. When the last timeout expires, the query is considered failed.
Returns
A `Deferred` which fires with a three-tuple of lists of `twisted.names.dns.RRHeader` instances. The first element of the tuple gives answers. The second element of the tuple gives authorities. The third element of the tuple gives additional information. The `Deferred` may instead fail with one of the exceptions defined in `twisted.names.error` or with `NotImplementedError`.

resolvers = (source)

Undocumented

def _lookup(self, name, cls, type, timeout): (source)
overrides `twisted.names.common.ResolverBase._lookup`

Build a `dns.Query` for the given parameters and dispatch it to each `IResolver` in `self.resolvers` until an answer or `error.AuthoritativeDomainError` is returned.

Parameters
name:`str` | DNS name to resolve.
cls:`int` | DNS record class.
type:`int` | DNS record type.
timeout:Sequence of `int` | Number of seconds after which to reissue the query. When the last timeout expires, the query is considered failed.
Returns
`Deferred` | A `Deferred` which fires with a three-tuple of lists of `twisted.names.dns.RRHeader` instances. The first element of the tuple gives answers. The second element of the tuple gives authorities. The third element of the tuple gives additional information. The `Deferred` may instead fail with one of the exceptions defined in `twisted.names.error` or with `NotImplementedError`.
