49This module is a helper module to make it easier to do event-based I/O on 35This is a helper module to make it easier to do event-based I/O
50filehandles. For utility functions for doing non-blocking connects and accepts 36on stream-based filehandles (sockets, pipes, and other stream
51on sockets see L<AnyEvent::Util>. 37things). Specifically, it doesn't work as expected on files, packet-based
38sockets or similar things.

40The L<AnyEvent::Intro> tutorial contains some well-documented
41AnyEvent::Handle examples.

99that mode.
76 100
77=item on_eof => $cb->($self) 101=item connect => [$host, $service] [C<fh> or C<connect> MANDATORY]
78 102
79Set the callback to be called on EOF. 103Try to connect to the specified host and service (port), using
104C<AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_connect>. The C<$host> additionally becomes the
105default C<peername>.
80 106
81While not mandatory, it is highly recommended to set an eof callback, 107You have to specify either this parameter, or C<fh>, above.
82otherwise you might end up with a closed socket while you are still
83waiting for data.
84 108
109It is possible to push requests on the read and write queues, and modify
110properties of the stream, even while AnyEvent::Handle is connecting.
111
112When this parameter is specified, then the C<on_prepare>,
113C<on_connect_error> and C<on_connect> callbacks will be called under the
114appropriate circumstances:
115
116=over 4
117
85=item on_error => $cb->($self) 118=item on_prepare => $cb->($handle)
86 119
120This (rarely used) callback is called before a new connection is
121attempted, but after the file handle has been created (you can access that
122file handle via C<< $handle->{fh} >>). It could be used to prepare the
123file handle with parameters required for the actual connect (as opposed to
124settings that can be changed when the connection is already established).
125
126The return value of this callback should be the connect timeout value in
127seconds (or C<0>, or C<undef>, or the empty list, to indicate that the
128default timeout is to be used).
129
130=item on_connect => $cb->($handle, $host, $port, $retry->())
131
132This callback is called when a connection has been successfully established.
133
134The peer's numeric host and port (the socket peername) are passed as
135parameters, together with a retry callback. At the time it is called the
136read and write queues, EOF status, TLS status and similar properties of
137the handle will have been reset.
138
139If, for some reason, the handle is not acceptable, calling C<$retry> will
140continue with the next connection target (in case of multi-homed hosts or
141SRV records there can be multiple connection endpoints). The C<$retry>
142callback can be invoked after the connect callback returns, i.e. one can
143start a handshake and then decide to retry with the next host if the
144handshake fails.
145
146In most cases, you should ignore the C<$retry> parameter.
147
148=item on_connect_error => $cb->($handle, $message)
149
150This callback is called when the connection could not be
151established. C<$!> will contain the relevant error code, and C<$message> a
152message describing it (usually the same as C<"$!">).
153
154If this callback isn't specified, then C<on_error> will be called with a
155fatal error instead.
156
157=back
158
159=item on_error => $cb->($handle, $fatal, $message)
160
87This is the fatal error callback, that is called when, well, a fatal error 161This is the error callback, which is called when, well, some error
88occurs, such as not being able to resolve the hostname, failure to connect 162occured, such as not being able to resolve the hostname, failure to
89or a read error. 163connect, or a read error.
90 164
91The object will not be in a usable state when this callback has been 165Some errors are fatal (which is indicated by C<$fatal> being true). On
92called. 166fatal errors the handle object will be destroyed (by a call to C<< ->
167destroy >>) after invoking the error callback (which means you are free to
168examine the handle object). Examples of fatal errors are an EOF condition
169with active (but unsatisfiable) read watchers (C<EPIPE>) or I/O errors. In
170cases where the other side can close the connection at will, it is
171often easiest to not report C<EPIPE> errors in this callback.
93 172
173AnyEvent::Handle tries to find an appropriate error code for you to check
174against, but in some cases (TLS errors), this does not work well.
175
176If you report the error to the user, it is recommended to always output
177the C<$message> argument in human-readable error messages (you don't need
178to report C<"$!"> if you report C<$message>).
179
180If you want to react programmatically to the error, then looking at C<$!>
181and comparing it against some of the documented C<Errno> values is usually
182better than looking at the C<$message>.
183
184Non-fatal errors can be retried by returning, but it is recommended
185to simply ignore this parameter and instead abondon the handle object
186when this callback is invoked. Examples of non-fatal errors are timeouts
187C<ETIMEDOUT>) or badly-formatted data (C<EBADMSG>).
188
94On callback entrance, the value of C<$!> contains the operating system 189On entry to the callback, the value of C<$!> contains the operating
95error (or C<ENOSPC>, C<EPIPE> or C<EBADMSG>). 190system error code (or C<ENOSPC>, C<EPIPE>, C<ETIMEDOUT>, C<EBADMSG> or
191C<EPROTO>).
96 192
97While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set this callback, as 193While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set this callback, as
98you will not be notified of errors otherwise. The default simply calls 194you will not be notified of errors otherwise. The default just calls
99die. 195C<croak>.
100 196

103This sets the default read callback, which is called when data arrives 199This sets the default read callback, which is called when data arrives
104and no read request is in the queue. 200and no read request is in the queue (unlike read queue callbacks, this
201callback will only be called when at least one octet of data is in the
202read buffer).
105 203
106To access (and remove data from) the read buffer, use the C<< ->rbuf >> 204To access (and remove data from) the read buffer, use the C<< ->rbuf >>
107method or access the C<$self->{rbuf}> member directly. 205method or access the C<< $handle->{rbuf} >> member directly. Note that you
206must not enlarge or modify the read buffer, you can only remove data at
207the beginning from it.
108 208
209You can also call C<< ->push_read (...) >> or any other function that
210modifies the read queue. Or do both. Or ...
211
109When an EOF condition is detected then AnyEvent::Handle will first try to 212When an EOF condition is detected, AnyEvent::Handle will first try to
110feed all the remaining data to the queued callbacks and C<on_read> before 213feed all the remaining data to the queued callbacks and C<on_read> before
111calling the C<on_eof> callback. If no progress can be made, then a fatal 214calling the C<on_eof> callback. If no progress can be made, then a fatal
112error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<EPIPE>). 215error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<EPIPE>).
113 216
217Note that, unlike requests in the read queue, an C<on_read> callback
218doesn't mean you I<require> some data: if there is an EOF and there
219are outstanding read requests then an error will be flagged. With an
220C<on_read> callback, the C<on_eof> callback will be invoked.
221
222=item on_eof => $cb->($handle)
223
224Set the callback to be called when an end-of-file condition is detected,
225i.e. in the case of a socket, when the other side has closed the
226connection cleanly, and there are no outstanding read requests in the
227queue (if there are read requests, then an EOF counts as an unexpected
228connection close and will be flagged as an error).
229
230For sockets, this just means that the other side has stopped sending data,
231you can still try to write data, and, in fact, one can return from the EOF
232callback and continue writing data, as only the read part has been shut
233down.
234
235If an EOF condition has been detected but no C<on_eof> callback has been
236set, then a fatal error will be raised with C<$!> set to <0>.
237
114=item on_drain => $cb->() 238=item on_drain => $cb->($handle)
115 239
116This sets the callback that is called when the write buffer becomes empty 240This sets the callback that is called once when the write buffer becomes
117(or when the callback is set and the buffer is empty already). 241empty (and immediately when the handle object is created).
118 242
119To append to the write buffer, use the C<< ->push_write >> method. 243To append to the write buffer, use the C<< ->push_write >> method.
244
245This callback is useful when you don't want to put all of your write data
246into the queue at once, for example, when you want to write the contents
247of some file to the socket you might not want to read the whole file into
248memory and push it into the queue, but instead only read more data from
249the file when the write queue becomes empty.
250
251=item timeout => $fractional_seconds
252
253=item rtimeout => $fractional_seconds
254
255=item wtimeout => $fractional_seconds
256
257If non-zero, then these enables an "inactivity" timeout: whenever this
258many seconds pass without a successful read or write on the underlying
259file handle (or a call to C<timeout_reset>), the C<on_timeout> callback
260will be invoked (and if that one is missing, a non-fatal C<ETIMEDOUT>
261error will be raised).
262
263There are three variants of the timeouts that work independently of each
264other, for both read and write (triggered when nothing was read I<OR>
265written), just read (triggered when nothing was read), and just write:
266C<timeout>, C<rtimeout> and C<wtimeout>, with corresponding callbacks
267C<on_timeout>, C<on_rtimeout> and C<on_wtimeout>, and reset functions
268C<timeout_reset>, C<rtimeout_reset>, and C<wtimeout_reset>.
269
270Note that timeout processing is active even when you do not have any
271outstanding read or write requests: If you plan to keep the connection
272idle then you should disable the timeout temporarily or ignore the
273timeout in the corresponding C<on_timeout> callback, in which case
274AnyEvent::Handle will simply restart the timeout.
275
276Zero (the default) disables the corresponding timeout.
277
278=item on_timeout => $cb->($handle)
279
280=item on_rtimeout => $cb->($handle)
281
282=item on_wtimeout => $cb->($handle)
283
284Called whenever the inactivity timeout passes. If you return from this
285callback, then the timeout will be reset as if some activity had happened,
286so this condition is not fatal in any way.
120 287

122 289
123If defined, then a fatal error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<ENOSPC>) 290If defined, then a fatal error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<ENOSPC>)
124when the read buffer ever (strictly) exceeds this size. This is useful to 291when the read buffer ever (strictly) exceeds this size. This is useful to
125avoid denial-of-service attacks. 292avoid some forms of denial-of-service attacks.

128be configured to accept only so-and-so much data that it cannot act on 295be configured to accept only so-and-so much data that it cannot act on

130amount of data without a callback ever being called as long as the line 297amount of data without a callback ever being called as long as the line
131isn't finished). 298isn't finished).
132 299
300=item wbuf_max => <bytes>
301
302If defined, then a fatal error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<ENOSPC>)
303when the write buffer ever (strictly) exceeds this size. This is useful to
304avoid some forms of denial-of-service attacks.
305
306Although the units of this parameter is bytes, this is the I<raw> number
307of bytes not yet accepted by the kernel. This can make a difference when
308you e.g. use TLS, as TLS typically makes your write data larger (but it
309can also make it smaller due to compression).
310
311As an example of when this limit is useful, take a chat server that sends
312chat messages to a client. If the client does not read those in a timely
313manner then the send buffer in the server would grow unbounded.
314
315=item autocork => <boolean>
316
317When disabled (the default), C<push_write> will try to immediately
318write the data to the handle if possible. This avoids having to register
319a write watcher and wait for the next event loop iteration, but can
320be inefficient if you write multiple small chunks (on the wire, this
321disadvantage is usually avoided by your kernel's nagle algorithm, see
322C<no_delay>, but this option can save costly syscalls).
323
324When enabled, writes will always be queued till the next event loop
325iteration. This is efficient when you do many small writes per iteration,
326but less efficient when you do a single write only per iteration (or when
327the write buffer often is full). It also increases write latency.
328
329=item no_delay => <boolean>
330
331When doing small writes on sockets, your operating system kernel might
332wait a bit for more data before actually sending it out. This is called
333the Nagle algorithm, and usually it is beneficial.
334
335In some situations you want as low a delay as possible, which can be
336accomplishd by setting this option to a true value.
337
338The default is your operating system's default behaviour (most likely
339enabled). This option explicitly enables or disables it, if possible.
340
341=item keepalive => <boolean>
342
343Enables (default disable) the SO_KEEPALIVE option on the stream socket:
344normally, TCP connections have no time-out once established, so TCP
345connections, once established, can stay alive forever even when the other
346side has long gone. TCP keepalives are a cheap way to take down long-lived
347TCP connections when the other side becomes unreachable. While the default
348is OS-dependent, TCP keepalives usually kick in after around two hours,
349and, if the other side doesn't reply, take down the TCP connection some 10
350to 15 minutes later.
351
352It is harmless to specify this option for file handles that do not support
353keepalives, and enabling it on connections that are potentially long-lived
354is usually a good idea.
355
356=item oobinline => <boolean>
357
358BSD majorly fucked up the implementation of TCP urgent data. The result
359is that almost no OS implements TCP according to the specs, and every OS
360implements it slightly differently.
361
362If you want to handle TCP urgent data, then setting this flag (the default
363is enabled) gives you the most portable way of getting urgent data, by
364putting it into the stream.
365
366Since BSD emulation of OOB data on top of TCP's urgent data can have
367security implications, AnyEvent::Handle sets this flag automatically
368unless explicitly specified. Note that setting this flag after
369establishing a connection I<may> be a bit too late (data loss could
370already have occured on BSD systems), but at least it will protect you
371from most attacks.
372
133=item read_size => <bytes> 373=item read_size => <bytes>
134 374
135The default read block size (the amount of bytes this module will try to read 375The initial read block size, the number of bytes this module will try
136on each [loop iteration). Default: C<4096>. 376to read during each loop iteration. Each handle object will consume
377at least this amount of memory for the read buffer as well, so when
378handling many connections watch out for memory requirements). See also
379C<max_read_size>. Default: C<2048>.
380
381=item max_read_size => <bytes>
382
383The maximum read buffer size used by the dynamic adjustment
384algorithm: Each time AnyEvent::Handle can read C<read_size> bytes in
385one go it will double C<read_size> up to the maximum given by this
386option. Default: C<131072> or C<read_size>, whichever is higher.
137 387
138=item low_water_mark => <bytes> 388=item low_water_mark => <bytes>
139 389
140Sets the amount of bytes (default: C<0>) that make up an "empty" write 390Sets the number of bytes (default: C<0>) that make up an "empty" write
141buffer: If the write reaches this size or gets even samller it is 391buffer: If the buffer reaches this size or gets even samller it is
142considered empty. 392considered empty.
143 393
394Sometimes it can be beneficial (for performance reasons) to add data to
395the write buffer before it is fully drained, but this is a rare case, as
396the operating system kernel usually buffers data as well, so the default
397is good in almost all cases.
398
399=item linger => <seconds>
400
401If this is non-zero (default: C<3600>), the destructor of the
402AnyEvent::Handle object will check whether there is still outstanding
403write data and will install a watcher that will write this data to the
404socket. No errors will be reported (this mostly matches how the operating
405system treats outstanding data at socket close time).
406
407This will not work for partial TLS data that could not be encoded
408yet. This data will be lost. Calling the C<stoptls> method in time might
409help.
410
411=item peername => $string
412
413A string used to identify the remote site - usually the DNS hostname
414(I<not> IDN!) used to create the connection, rarely the IP address.
415
416Apart from being useful in error messages, this string is also used in TLS
417peername verification (see C<verify_peername> in L<AnyEvent::TLS>). This
418verification will be skipped when C<peername> is not specified or is
419C<undef>.
420
144=item tls => "accept" | "connect" | Net::SSLeay::SSL object 421=item tls => "accept" | "connect" | Net::SSLeay::SSL object
145 422

148data. 425established and will transparently encrypt/decrypt data afterwards.
426
427All TLS protocol errors will be signalled as C<EPROTO>, with an
428appropriate error message.
149 429
150TLS mode requires Net::SSLeay to be installed (it will be loaded 430TLS mode requires Net::SSLeay to be installed (it will be loaded
151automatically when you try to create a TLS handle). 431automatically when you try to create a TLS handle): this module doesn't
432have a dependency on that module, so if your module requires it, you have
433to add the dependency yourself. If Net::SSLeay cannot be loaded or is too
434old, you get an C<EPROTO> error.
152 435

154connection, use C<connect> mode. 437C<accept>, and for the TLS client side of a connection, use C<connect>
438mode.
155 439
156You can also provide your own TLS connection object, but you have 440You can also provide your own TLS connection object, but you have
157to make sure that you call either C<Net::SSLeay::set_connect_state> 441to make sure that you call either C<Net::SSLeay::set_connect_state>
158or C<Net::SSLeay::set_accept_state> on it before you pass it to 442or C<Net::SSLeay::set_accept_state> on it before you pass it to
159AnyEvent::Handle. 443AnyEvent::Handle. Also, this module will take ownership of this connection
444object.
160 445
446At some future point, AnyEvent::Handle might switch to another TLS
447implementation, then the option to use your own session object will go
448away.
449
450B<IMPORTANT:> since Net::SSLeay "objects" are really only integers,
451passing in the wrong integer will lead to certain crash. This most often
452happens when one uses a stylish C<< tls => 1 >> and is surprised about the
453segmentation fault.
454
161See the C<starttls> method if you need to start TLs negotiation later. 455Use the C<< ->starttls >> method if you need to start TLS negotiation later.
162 456
163=item tls_ctx => $ssl_ctx 457=item tls_ctx => $anyevent_tls
164 458
165Use the given Net::SSLeay::CTX object to create the new TLS connection 459Use the given C<AnyEvent::TLS> object to create the new TLS connection
166(unless a connection object was specified directly). If this parameter is 460(unless a connection object was specified directly). If this
167missing, then AnyEvent::Handle will use C<AnyEvent::Handle::TLS_CTX>. 461parameter is missing (or C<undef>), then AnyEvent::Handle will use
462C<AnyEvent::Handle::TLS_CTX>.
463
464Instead of an object, you can also specify a hash reference with C<< key
465=> value >> pairs. Those will be passed to L<AnyEvent::TLS> to create a
466new TLS context object.
467
468=item on_starttls => $cb->($handle, $success[, $error_message])
469
470This callback will be invoked when the TLS/SSL handshake has finished. If
471C<$success> is true, then the TLS handshake succeeded, otherwise it failed
472(C<on_stoptls> will not be called in this case).
473
474The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
475callback, even when the handshake was not successful.
476
477TLS handshake failures will not cause C<on_error> to be invoked when this
478callback is in effect, instead, the error message will be passed to C<on_starttls>.
479
480Without this callback, handshake failures lead to C<on_error> being
481called as usual.
482
483Note that you cannot just call C<starttls> again in this callback. If you
484need to do that, start an zero-second timer instead whose callback can
485then call C<< ->starttls >> again.
486
487=item on_stoptls => $cb->($handle)
488
489When a SSLv3/TLS shutdown/close notify/EOF is detected and this callback is
490set, then it will be invoked after freeing the TLS session. If it is not,
491then a TLS shutdown condition will be treated like a normal EOF condition
492on the handle.
493
494The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
495callback.
496
497This callback will only be called on TLS shutdowns, not when the
498underlying handle signals EOF.
499
500=item json => L<JSON>, L<JSON::PP> or L<JSON::XS> object
501
502This is the json coder object used by the C<json> read and write types.
503
504If you don't supply it, then AnyEvent::Handle will create and use a
505suitable one (on demand), which will write and expect UTF-8 encoded
506JSON texts (either using L<JSON::XS> or L<JSON>). The written texts are
507guaranteed not to contain any newline character.
508
509For security reasons, this encoder will likely I<not> handle numbers and
510strings, only arrays and objects/hashes. The reason is that originally
511JSON was self-delimited, but Dougles Crockford thought it was a splendid
512idea to redefine JSON incompatibly, so this is no longer true.
513
514For protocols that used back-to-back JSON texts, this might lead to
515run-ins, where two or more JSON texts will be interpreted as one JSON
516text.
517
518For this reason, if the default encoder uses L<JSON::XS>, it will default
519to not allowing anything but arrays and objects/hashes, at least for the
520forseeable future (it will change at some point). This might or might not
521be true for the L<JSON> module, so this might cause a security issue.
522
523If you depend on either behaviour, you should create your own json object
524and pass it in explicitly.
525
526=item cbor => L<CBOR::XS> object
527
528This is the cbor coder object used by the C<cbor> read and write types.
529
530If you don't supply it, then AnyEvent::Handle will create and use a
531suitable one (on demand), which will write CBOR without using extensions,
532if possible.
533
534Note that you are responsible to depend on the L<CBOR::XS> module if you
535want to use this functionality, as AnyEvent does not have a dependency on
536it itself.

900AnyEvent::Handle manages two queues per handle, one for writing and one

904AnyEvent::Handle will automatically try to get rid of it for you.

262=head2 WRITE QUEUE
263
264AnyEvent::Handle manages two queues per handle, one for writing and one
265for reading.
266
267The write queue is very simple: you can add data to its end, and
268AnyEvent::Handle will automatically try to get rid of it for you.
269
270When data could be written and the write buffer is shorter then the low
271water mark, the C<on_drain> callback will be invoked.

1041uses the same format as a Perl C<pack> format, but must specify a single
1042integer only (only one of C<cCsSlLqQiInNvVjJw> is allowed, plus an
1043optional C<!>, C<< < >> or C<< > >> modifier).

1052
1053=item json => $array_or_hashref
1054
1055Encodes the given hash or array reference into a JSON object. Unless you
1056provide your own JSON object, this means it will be encoded to JSON text
1057in UTF-8.
1058
1059The default encoder might or might not handle every type of JSON value -
1060it might be limited to arrays and objects for security reasons. See the
1061C<json> constructor attribute for more details.
1062
1063JSON objects (and arrays) are self-delimiting, so if you only use arrays
1064and hashes, you can write JSON at one end of a handle and read them at the
1065other end without using any additional framing.
1066
1067The JSON text generated by the default encoder is guaranteed not to
1068contain any newlines: While this module doesn't need delimiters after or
1069between JSON texts to be able to read them, many other languages depend on
1070them.
1071
1072A simple RPC protocol that interoperates easily with other languages is
1073to send JSON arrays (or objects, although arrays are usually the better
1074choice as they mimic how function argument passing works) and a newline
1075after each JSON text:
1076
1077 $handle->push_write (json => ["method", "arg1", "arg2"]); # whatever
1078 $handle->push_write ("\012");
1079
1080An AnyEvent::Handle receiver would simply use the C<json> read type and
1081rely on the fact that the newline will be skipped as leading whitespace:
1082
1083 $handle->push_read (json => sub { my $array = $_[1]; ... });
1084
1085Other languages could read single lines terminated by a newline and pass
1086this line into their JSON decoder of choice.
1087
1088=item cbor => $perl_scalar
1089
1090Encodes the given scalar into a CBOR value. Unless you provide your own
1091L<CBOR::XS> object, this means it will be encoded to a CBOR string not
1092using any extensions, if possible.
1093
1094CBOR values are self-delimiting, so you can write CBOR at one end of
1095a handle and read them at the other end without using any additional
1096framing.
1097
1098A simple nd very very fast RPC protocol that interoperates with
1099other languages is to send CBOR and receive CBOR values (arrays are
1100recommended):
1101
1102 $handle->push_write (cbor => ["method", "arg1", "arg2"]); # whatever
1103
1104An AnyEvent::Handle receiver would simply use the C<cbor> read type:

370=cut 1151=item $handle->push_shutdown
371 1152
1153Sometimes you know you want to close the socket after writing your data
1154before it was actually written. One way to do that is to replace your
1155C<on_drain> handler by a callback that shuts down the socket (and set
1156C<low_water_mark> to C<0>). This method is a shorthand for just that, and
1157replaces the C<on_drain> callback with:
372 1158
1159 sub { shutdown $_[0]{fh}, 1 }
1160
1161This simply shuts down the write side and signals an EOF condition to the
1162the peer.
1163
1164You can rely on the normal read queue and C<on_eof> handling
1165afterwards. This is the cleanest way to close a connection.
1166
1167This method may invoke callbacks (and therefore the handle might be
1168destroyed after it returns).
1169

1171
1172sub push_shutdown {
1173 my ($self) = @_;

1177}
1178
1179=item custom write types - Package::anyevent_write_type $handle, @args
1180
1181Instead of one of the predefined types, you can also specify the name of
1182a package. AnyEvent will try to load the package and then expects to find
1183a function named C<anyevent_write_type> inside. If it isn't found, it
1184progressively tries to load the parent package until it either finds the
1185function (good) or runs out of packages (bad).
1186
1187Whenever the given C<type> is used, C<push_write> will the function with
1188the handle object and the remaining arguments.
1189
1190The function is supposed to return a single octet string that will be
1191appended to the write buffer, so you can mentally treat this function as a
1192"arguments to on-the-wire-format" converter.
1193
1194Example: implement a custom write type C<join> that joins the remaining
1195arguments using the first one.
1196
1197 $handle->push_write (My::Type => " ", 1,2,3);
1198
1199 # uses the following package, which can be defined in the "My::Type" or in
1200 # the "My" modules to be auto-loaded, or just about anywhere when the

1557=item regex => $accept[, $reject[, $skip], $cb->($handle, $data)
1558
1559Makes a regex match against the regex object C<$accept> and returns
1560everything up to and including the match. All the usual regex variables
1561($1, %+ etc.) from the regex match are available in the callback.
1562
1563Example: read a single line terminated by '\n'.
1564
1565 $handle->push_read (regex => qr<\n>, sub { ... });
1566
1567If C<$reject> is given and not undef, then it determines when the data is
1568to be rejected: it is matched against the data when the C<$accept> regex
1569does not match and generates an C<EBADMSG> error when it matches. This is
1570useful to quickly reject wrong data (to avoid waiting for a timeout or a
1571receive buffer overflow).
1572
1573Example: expect a single decimal number followed by whitespace, reject
1574anything else (not the use of an anchor).
1575
1576 $handle->push_read (regex => qr<^[0-9]+\s>, qr<[^0-9]>, sub { ... });
1577
1578If C<$skip> is given and not C<undef>, then it will be matched against
1579the receive buffer when neither C<$accept> nor C<$reject> match,
1580and everything preceding and including the match will be accepted
1581unconditionally. This is useful to skip large amounts of data that you
1582know cannot be matched, so that the C<$accept> or C<$reject> regex do not
1583have to start matching from the beginning. This is purely an optimisation
1584and is usually worth it only when you expect more than a few kilobytes.
1585
1586Example: expect a http header, which ends at C<\015\012\015\012>. Since we
1587expect the header to be very large (it isn't in practice, but...), we use
1588a skip regex to skip initial portions. The skip regex is tricky in that
1589it only accepts something not ending in either \015 or \012, as these are
1590required for the accept regex.

1592 $handle->push_read (regex =>
1593 qr<\015\012\015\012>,

1854Checks the input stream for a valid SSL or TLS handshake TLSPaintext
1855record without consuming anything. Only SSL version 3 or higher
1856is handled, up to the fictituous protocol 4.x (but both SSL3+ and
1857SSL2-compatible framing is supported).
1858
1859If it detects that the input data is likely TLS, it calls the callback
1860with a true value for C<$detect> and the (on-wire) TLS version as second
1861and third argument (C<$major> is C<3>, and C<$minor> is 0..4 for SSL
18623.0, TLS 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3, respectively). If it detects the input
1863to be definitely not TLS, it calls the callback with a false value for
1864C<$detect>.
1865
1866The callback could use this information to decide whether or not to start
1867TLS negotiation.
1868
1869In all cases the data read so far is passed to the following read
1870handlers.
1871
1872Usually you want to use the C<tls_autostart> read type instead.
1873
1874If you want to design a protocol that works in the presence of TLS
1875dtection, make sure that any non-TLS data doesn't start with the octet 22
1876(ASCII SYN, 16 hex) or 128-255 (i.e. highest bit set). The checks this
1877read type does are a bit more strict, but might losen in the future to
1878accomodate protocol changes.
1879
1880This read type does not rely on L<AnyEvent::TLS> (and thus, not on
1881L<Net::SSLeay>).
1882
1883=item tls_autostart => [$tls_ctx, ]$tls
1884
1885Tries to detect a valid SSL or TLS handshake. If one is detected, it tries
1886to start tls by calling C<starttls> with the given arguments.
1887
1888In practise, C<$tls> must be C<accept>, or a Net::SSLeay context that has
1889been configured to accept, as servers do not normally send a handshake on
1890their own and ths cannot be detected in this way.
1891
1892See C<tls_detect> above for more details.

1895line.

1940=item custom read types - Package::anyevent_read_type $handle, $cb, @args
1941
1942Instead of one of the predefined types, you can also specify the name
1943of a package. AnyEvent will try to load the package and then expects to
1944find a function named C<anyevent_read_type> inside. If it isn't found, it
1945progressively tries to load the parent package until it either finds the
1946function (good) or runs out of packages (bad).
1947
1948Whenever this type is used, C<push_read> will invoke the function with the
1949handle object, the original callback and the remaining arguments.
1950
1951The function is supposed to return a callback (usually a closure) that
1952works as a plain read callback (see C<< ->push_read ($cb) >>), so you can
1953mentally treat the function as a "configurable read type to read callback"
1954converter.
1955
1956It should invoke the original callback when it is done reading (remember
1957to pass C<$handle> as first argument as all other callbacks do that,
1958although there is no strict requirement on this).
1959
1960For examples, see the source of this module (F<perldoc -m
1961AnyEvent::Handle>, search for C<register_read_type>)).
1962
720=item $handle->stop_read 1963=item $handle->stop_read
721 1964
722=item $handle->start_read 1965=item $handle->start_read
723 1966
724In rare cases you actually do not want to read anything from the 1967In rare cases you actually do not want to read anything from the
725socket. In this case you can call C<stop_read>. Neither C<on_read> no 1968socket. In this case you can call C<stop_read>. Neither C<on_read> nor
726any queued callbacks will be executed then. To start reading again, call 1969any queued callbacks will be executed then. To start reading again, call
727C<start_read>. 1970C<start_read>.
728 1971
1972Note that AnyEvent::Handle will automatically C<start_read> for you when
1973you change the C<on_read> callback or push/unshift a read callback, and it
1974will automatically C<stop_read> for you when neither C<on_read> is set nor
1975there are any read requests in the queue.
1976
1977In older versions of this module (<= 5.3), these methods had no effect,
1978as TLS does not support half-duplex connections. In current versions they
1979work as expected, as this behaviour is required to avoid certain resource
1980attacks, where the program would be forced to read (and buffer) arbitrary
1981amounts of data before being able to send some data. The drawback is that
1982some readings of the the SSL/TLS specifications basically require this
1983attack to be working, as SSL/TLS implementations might stall sending data
1984during a rehandshake.
1985
1986As a guideline, during the initial handshake, you should not stop reading,
1987and as a client, it might cause problems, depending on your application.

2305=item $handle->destroy
2306
2307Shuts down the handle object as much as possible - this call ensures that
2308no further callbacks will be invoked and as many resources as possible
2309will be freed. Any method you will call on the handle object after
2310destroying it in this way will be silently ignored (and it will return the
2311empty list).
2312
2313Normally, you can just "forget" any references to an AnyEvent::Handle
2314object and it will simply shut down. This works in fatal error and EOF
2315callbacks, as well as code outside. It does I<NOT> work in a read or write
2316callback, so when you want to destroy the AnyEvent::Handle object from
2317within such an callback. You I<MUST> call C<< ->destroy >> explicitly in
2318that case.
2319
2320Destroying the handle object in this way has the advantage that callbacks
2321will be removed as well, so if those are the only reference holders (as
2322is common), then one doesn't need to do anything special to break any
2323reference cycles.
2324
2325The handle might still linger in the background and write out remaining
2326data, as specified by the C<linger> option, however.

2343
2344Returns false as long as the handle hasn't been destroyed by a call to C<<
2345->destroy >>, true otherwise.
2346
2347Can be useful to decide whether the handle is still valid after some
2348callback possibly destroyed the handle. For example, C<< ->push_write >>,
2349C<< ->starttls >> and other methods can call user callbacks, which in turn
2350can destroy the handle, so work can be avoided by checking sometimes:
2351
2352 $hdl->starttls ("accept");
2353 return if $hdl->destroyed;
2354 $hdl->push_write (...
2355
2356Note that the call to C<push_write> will silently be ignored if the handle
2357has been destroyed, so often you can just ignore the possibility of the
2358handle being destroyed.

2388
2389=over 4
2390
2391=item I C<undef> the AnyEvent::Handle reference inside my callback and
2392still get further invocations!
2393
2394That's because AnyEvent::Handle keeps a reference to itself when handling
2395read or write callbacks.
2396
2397It is only safe to "forget" the reference inside EOF or error callbacks,
2398from within all other callbacks, you need to explicitly call the C<<
2399->destroy >> method.
2400
2401=item Why is my C<on_eof> callback never called?
2402
2403Probably because your C<on_error> callback is being called instead: When
2404you have outstanding requests in your read queue, then an EOF is
2405considered an error as you clearly expected some data.
2406
2407To avoid this, make sure you have an empty read queue whenever your handle
2408is supposed to be "idle" (i.e. connection closes are O.K.). You can set
2409an C<on_read> handler that simply pushes the first read requests in the
2410queue.
2411
2412See also the next question, which explains this in a bit more detail.
2413
2414=item How can I serve requests in a loop?
2415
2416Most protocols consist of some setup phase (authentication for example)
2417followed by a request handling phase, where the server waits for requests
2418and handles them, in a loop.
2419
2420There are two important variants: The first (traditional, better) variant
2421handles requests until the server gets some QUIT command, causing it to
2422close the connection first (highly desirable for a busy TCP server). A
2423client dropping the connection is an error, which means this variant can
2424detect an unexpected detection close.
2425
2426To handle this case, always make sure you have a non-empty read queue, by
2427pushing the "read request start" handler on it:
2428
2429 # we assume a request starts with a single line
2430 my @start_request; @start_request = (line => sub {
2431 my ($hdl, $line) = @_;
2432
2433 ... handle request
2434
2435 # push next request read, possibly from a nested callback
2436 $hdl->push_read (@start_request);
2437 });
2438
2439 # auth done, now go into request handling loop
2440 # now push the first @start_request
2441 $hdl->push_read (@start_request);
2442
2443By always having an outstanding C<push_read>, the handle always expects
2444some data and raises the C<EPIPE> error when the connction is dropped
2445unexpectedly.
2446
2447The second variant is a protocol where the client can drop the connection
2448at any time. For TCP, this means that the server machine may run out of
2449sockets easier, and in general, it means you cannot distinguish a protocl
2450failure/client crash from a normal connection close. Nevertheless, these
2451kinds of protocols are common (and sometimes even the best solution to the
2452problem).
2453
2454Having an outstanding read request at all times is possible if you ignore
2455C<EPIPE> errors, but this doesn't help with when the client drops the
2456connection during a request, which would still be an error.
2457
2458A better solution is to push the initial request read in an C<on_read>
2459callback. This avoids an error, as when the server doesn't expect data
2460(i.e. is idly waiting for the next request, an EOF will not raise an
2461error, but simply result in an C<on_eof> callback. It is also a bit slower
2462and simpler:
2463
2464 # auth done, now go into request handling loop
2465 $hdl->on_read (sub {
2466 my ($hdl) = @_;
2467
2468 # called each time we receive data but the read queue is empty
2469 # simply start read the request
2470
2471 $hdl->push_read (line => sub {
2472 my ($hdl, $line) = @_;
2473
2474 ... handle request
2475
2476 # do nothing special when the request has been handled, just
2477 # let the request queue go empty.
2478 });
2479 });
2480
2481=item I get different callback invocations in TLS mode/Why can't I pause
2482reading?
2483
2484Unlike, say, TCP, TLS connections do not consist of two independent
2485communication channels, one for each direction. Or put differently, the
2486read and write directions are not independent of each other: you cannot
2487write data unless you are also prepared to read, and vice versa.
2488
2489This means that, in TLS mode, you might get C<on_error> or C<on_eof>
2490callback invocations when you are not expecting any read data - the reason
2491is that AnyEvent::Handle always reads in TLS mode.
2492
2493During the connection, you have to make sure that you always have a
2494non-empty read-queue, or an C<on_read> watcher. At the end of the
2495connection (or when you no longer want to use it) you can call the
2496C<destroy> method.
2497
2498=item How do I read data until the other side closes the connection?
2499
2500If you just want to read your data into a perl scalar, the easiest way
2501to achieve this is by setting an C<on_read> callback that does nothing,
2502clearing the C<on_eof> callback and in the C<on_error> callback, the data
2503will be in C<$_[0]{rbuf}>:
2504
2505 $handle->on_read (sub { });
2506 $handle->on_eof (undef);
2507 $handle->on_error (sub {
2508 my $data = delete $_[0]{rbuf};
2509 });
2510
2511Note that this example removes the C<rbuf> member from the handle object,
2512which is not normally allowed by the API. It is expressly permitted in
2513this case only, as the handle object needs to be destroyed afterwards.
2514
2515The reason to use C<on_error> is that TCP connections, due to latencies
2516and packets loss, might get closed quite violently with an error, when in
2517fact all data has been received.
2518
2519It is usually better to use acknowledgements when transferring data,
2520to make sure the other side hasn't just died and you got the data
2521intact. This is also one reason why so many internet protocols have an
2522explicit QUIT command.
2523
2524=item I don't want to destroy the handle too early - how do I wait until
2525all data has been written?
2526
2527After writing your last bits of data, set the C<on_drain> callback
2528and destroy the handle in there - with the default setting of
2529C<low_water_mark> this will be called precisely when all data has been
2530written to the socket:
2531
2532 $handle->push_write (...);
2533 $handle->on_drain (sub {
2534 AE::log debug => "All data submitted to the kernel.";
2535 undef $handle;
2536 });
2537
2538If you just want to queue some data and then signal EOF to the other side,
2539consider using C<< ->push_shutdown >> instead.
2540
2541=item I want to contact a TLS/SSL server, I don't care about security.
2542
2543If your TLS server is a pure TLS server (e.g. HTTPS) that only speaks TLS,
2544connect to it and then create the AnyEvent::Handle with the C<tls>
2545parameter:
2546
2547 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
2548 my ($fh) = @_;
2549
2550 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2551 fh => $fh,
2552 tls => "connect",
2553 on_error => sub { ... };
2554
2555 $handle->push_write (...);
2556 };
2557
2558=item I want to contact a TLS/SSL server, I do care about security.
2559
2560Then you should additionally enable certificate verification, including
2561peername verification, if the protocol you use supports it (see
2562L<AnyEvent::TLS>, C<verify_peername>).
2563
2564E.g. for HTTPS:
2565
2566 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
2567 my ($fh) = @_;
2568
2569 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2570 fh => $fh,
2571 peername => $host,
2572 tls => "connect",
2573 tls_ctx => { verify => 1, verify_peername => "https" },
2574 ...
2575
2576Note that you must specify the hostname you connected to (or whatever
2577"peername" the protocol needs) as the C<peername> argument, otherwise no
2578peername verification will be done.
2579
2580The above will use the system-dependent default set of trusted CA
2581certificates. If you want to check against a specific CA, add the
2582C<ca_file> (or C<ca_cert>) arguments to C<tls_ctx>:
2583
2584 tls_ctx => {
2585 verify => 1,
2586 verify_peername => "https",
2587 ca_file => "my-ca-cert.pem",
2588 },
2589
2590=item I want to create a TLS/SSL server, how do I do that?
2591
2592Well, you first need to get a server certificate and key. You have
2593three options: a) ask a CA (buy one, use cacert.org etc.) b) create a
2594self-signed certificate (cheap. check the search engine of your choice,
2595there are many tutorials on the net) or c) make your own CA (tinyca2 is a
2596nice program for that purpose).
2597
2598Then create a file with your private key (in PEM format, see
2599L<AnyEvent::TLS>), followed by the certificate (also in PEM format). The
2600file should then look like this:
2601
2602 -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2603 ...header data
2604 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2605 -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2606
2607 -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
2608 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2609 -----END CERTIFICATE-----
2610
2611The important bits are the "PRIVATE KEY" and "CERTIFICATE" parts. Then
2612specify this file as C<cert_file>:
2613
2614 tcp_server undef, $port, sub {
2615 my ($fh) = @_;
2616
2617 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2618 fh => $fh,
2619 tls => "accept",
2620 tls_ctx => { cert_file => "my-server-keycert.pem" },
2621 ...
2622
2623When you have intermediate CA certificates that your clients might not
2624know about, just append them to the C<cert_file>.

2628=head1 SUBCLASSING AnyEvent::Handle
2629
2630In many cases, you might want to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
2631
2632To make this easier, a given version of AnyEvent::Handle uses these
2633conventions:
2634
2635=over 4
2636
2637=item * all constructor arguments become object members.
2638
2639At least initially, when you pass a C<tls>-argument to the constructor it
2640will end up in C<< $handle->{tls} >>. Those members might be changed or
2641mutated later on (for example C<tls> will hold the TLS connection object).
2642
2643=item * other object member names are prefixed with an C<_>.
2644
2645All object members not explicitly documented (internal use) are prefixed
2646with an underscore character, so the remaining non-C<_>-namespace is free
2647for use for subclasses.
2648
2649=item * all members not documented here and not prefixed with an underscore
2650are free to use in subclasses.
2651
2652Of course, new versions of AnyEvent::Handle may introduce more "public"
2653member variables, but that's just life. At least it is documented.
