def buildProtocol(self, addr): (source)
from `twisted.internet.interfaces.IProtocolFactory`
overrides `twisted.internet.protocol.Factory.buildProtocol`

Create an instance of a subclass of Protocol.

The returned instance will handle input on an incoming server connection, and an attribute "factory" pointing to the creating factory.

Alternatively, `None` may be returned to immediately close the new connection.

Override this method to alter how Protocol instances get created.

Parameters
addr | an object implementing `IAddress`

_metadata = (source)
Metadata about the low-level connection details, used to make the repr more useful.
_quiescentCallback = (source)
The quiescent callback to be passed to protocol instances, used to return them to the connection pool.
