81 98
99=item connect => [$host, $service] [C<fh> or C<connect> MANDATORY]
100
101Try to connect to the specified host and service (port), using
102C<AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_connect>. The C<$host> additionally becomes the
103default C<peername>.
104
105You have to specify either this parameter, or C<fh>, above.
106
107It is possible to push requests on the read and write queues, and modify
108properties of the stream, even while AnyEvent::Handle is connecting.
109
110When this parameter is specified, then the C<on_prepare>,
111C<on_connect_error> and C<on_connect> callbacks will be called under the
112appropriate circumstances:
113
114=over 4
115
116=item on_prepare => $cb->($handle)
117
118This (rarely used) callback is called before a new connection is
119attempted, but after the file handle has been created (you can access that
120file handle via C<< $handle->{fh} >>). It could be used to prepare the
121file handle with parameters required for the actual connect (as opposed to
122settings that can be changed when the connection is already established).
123
124The return value of this callback should be the connect timeout value in
125seconds (or C<0>, or C<undef>, or the empty list, to indicate that the
126default timeout is to be used).
127
128=item on_connect => $cb->($handle, $host, $port, $retry->())
129
130This callback is called when a connection has been successfully established.
131
132The peer's numeric host and port (the socket peername) are passed as
133parameters, together with a retry callback. At the time it is called the
134read and write queues, EOF status, TLS status and similar properties of
135the handle will have been reset.
136
137It is not allowed to use the read or write queues while the handle object
138is connecting.
139
140If, for some reason, the handle is not acceptable, calling C<$retry> will
141continue with the next connection target (in case of multi-homed hosts or
142SRV records there can be multiple connection endpoints). The C<$retry>
143callback can be invoked after the connect callback returns, i.e. one can
144start a handshake and then decide to retry with the next host if the
145handshake fails.
146
147In most cases, you should ignore the C<$retry> parameter.
148
149=item on_connect_error => $cb->($handle, $message)
150
151This callback is called when the connection could not be
152established. C<$!> will contain the relevant error code, and C<$message> a
153message describing it (usually the same as C<"$!">).
154
155If this callback isn't specified, then C<on_error> will be called with a
156fatal error instead.
157
158=back
159
160=item on_error => $cb->($handle, $fatal, $message)
161
162This is the error callback, which is called when, well, some error
163occured, such as not being able to resolve the hostname, failure to
164connect, or a read error.
165
166Some errors are fatal (which is indicated by C<$fatal> being true). On
167fatal errors the handle object will be destroyed (by a call to C<< ->
168destroy >>) after invoking the error callback (which means you are free to
169examine the handle object). Examples of fatal errors are an EOF condition
170with active (but unsatisfiable) read watchers (C<EPIPE>) or I/O errors. In
171cases where the other side can close the connection at will, it is
172often easiest to not report C<EPIPE> errors in this callback.
173
174AnyEvent::Handle tries to find an appropriate error code for you to check
175against, but in some cases (TLS errors), this does not work well. It is
176recommended to always output the C<$message> argument in human-readable
177error messages (it's usually the same as C<"$!">).
178
179Non-fatal errors can be retried by returning, but it is recommended
180to simply ignore this parameter and instead abondon the handle object
181when this callback is invoked. Examples of non-fatal errors are timeouts
182C<ETIMEDOUT>) or badly-formatted data (C<EBADMSG>).
183
184On entry to the callback, the value of C<$!> contains the operating
185system error code (or C<ENOSPC>, C<EPIPE>, C<ETIMEDOUT>, C<EBADMSG> or
186C<EPROTO>).
187
188While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set this callback, as
189you will not be notified of errors otherwise. The default just calls
190C<croak>.
191
192=item on_read => $cb->($handle)
193
194This sets the default read callback, which is called when data arrives
195and no read request is in the queue (unlike read queue callbacks, this
196callback will only be called when at least one octet of data is in the
197read buffer).
198
199To access (and remove data from) the read buffer, use the C<< ->rbuf >>
200method or access the C<< $handle->{rbuf} >> member directly. Note that you
201must not enlarge or modify the read buffer, you can only remove data at
202the beginning from it.
203
204You can also call C<< ->push_read (...) >> or any other function that
205modifies the read queue. Or do both. Or ...
206
207When an EOF condition is detected, AnyEvent::Handle will first try to
208feed all the remaining data to the queued callbacks and C<on_read> before
209calling the C<on_eof> callback. If no progress can be made, then a fatal
210error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<EPIPE>).
211
212Note that, unlike requests in the read queue, an C<on_read> callback
213doesn't mean you I<require> some data: if there is an EOF and there
214are outstanding read requests then an error will be flagged. With an
215C<on_read> callback, the C<on_eof> callback will be invoked.
216
82=item on_eof => $cb->($handle) 217=item on_eof => $cb->($handle)

86connection cleanly. 221connection cleanly, and there are no outstanding read requests in the
222queue (if there are read requests, then an EOF counts as an unexpected
223connection close and will be flagged as an error).

92 229
93While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set an EOF callback,
94otherwise you might end up with a closed socket while you are still
95waiting for data.

100=item on_error => $cb->($handle, $fatal)
101
102This is the error callback, which is called when, well, some error
103occured, such as not being able to resolve the hostname, failure to
104connect or a read error.
105
106Some errors are fatal (which is indicated by C<$fatal> being true). On
107fatal errors the handle object will be shut down and will not be usable
108(but you are free to look at the current C<< ->rbuf >>). Examples of fatal
109errors are an EOF condition with active (but unsatisifable) read watchers
110(C<EPIPE>) or I/O errors.
111
112Non-fatal errors can be retried by simply returning, but it is recommended
113to simply ignore this parameter and instead abondon the handle object
114when this callback is invoked. Examples of non-fatal errors are timeouts
115C<ETIMEDOUT>) or badly-formatted data (C<EBADMSG>).
116
117On callback entrance, the value of C<$!> contains the operating system
118error (or C<ENOSPC>, C<EPIPE>, C<ETIMEDOUT> or C<EBADMSG>).
119
120While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set this callback, as
121you will not be notified of errors otherwise. The default simply calls
122C<croak>.
123

126This sets the default read callback, which is called when data arrives
127and no read request is in the queue (unlike read queue callbacks, this
128callback will only be called when at least one octet of data is in the
129read buffer).

131To access (and remove data from) the read buffer, use the C<< ->rbuf >>
132method or access the C<$handle->{rbuf}> member directly.
133
134When an EOF condition is detected then AnyEvent::Handle will first try to
135feed all the remaining data to the queued callbacks and C<on_read> before
136calling the C<on_eof> callback. If no progress can be made, then a fatal
137error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<EPIPE>).

158 257
258There are three variants of the timeouts that work independently of each
259other, for both read and write (triggered when nothing was read I<OR>
260written), just read (triggered when nothing was read), and just write:
261C<timeout>, C<rtimeout> and C<wtimeout>, with corresponding callbacks

295=item wbuf_max => <bytes>
296
297If defined, then a fatal error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<ENOSPC>)
298when the write buffer ever (strictly) exceeds this size. This is useful to
299avoid some forms of denial-of-service attacks.
300
301Although the units of this parameter is bytes, this is the I<raw> number
302of bytes not yet accepted by the kernel. This can make a difference when
303you e.g. use TLS, as TLS typically makes your write data larger (but it
304can also make it smaller due to compression).
305
306As an example of when this limit is useful, take a chat server that sends
307chat messages to a client. If the client does not read those in a timely
308manner then the send buffer in the server would grow unbounded.

335
336=item keepalive => <boolean>
337
338Enables (default disable) the SO_KEEPALIVE option on the stream socket:
339normally, TCP connections have no time-out once established, so TCP
340connections, once established, can stay alive forever even when the other
341side has long gone. TCP keepalives are a cheap way to take down long-lived
342TCP connections when the other side becomes unreachable. While the default
343is OS-dependent, TCP keepalives usually kick in after around two hours,
344and, if the other side doesn't reply, take down the TCP connection some 10
345to 15 minutes later.
346
347It is harmless to specify this option for file handles that do not support
348keepalives, and enabling it on connections that are potentially long-lived
349is usually a good idea.
350
351=item oobinline => <boolean>
352
353BSD majorly fucked up the implementation of TCP urgent data. The result
354is that almost no OS implements TCP according to the specs, and every OS
355implements it slightly differently.
356
357If you want to handle TCP urgent data, then setting this flag (the default
358is enabled) gives you the most portable way of getting urgent data, by
359putting it into the stream.
360
361Since BSD emulation of OOB data on top of TCP's urgent data can have
362security implications, AnyEvent::Handle sets this flag automatically
363unless explicitly specified. Note that setting this flag after
364establishing a connection I<may> be a bit too late (data loss could
365already have occured on BSD systems), but at least it will protect you
366from most attacks.

411Apart from being useful in error messages, this string is also used in TLS

440At some future point, AnyEvent::Handle might switch to another TLS
441implementation, then the option to use your own session object will go
442away.
443
444B<IMPORTANT:> since Net::SSLeay "objects" are really only integers,
445passing in the wrong integer will lead to certain crash. This most often
446happens when one uses a stylish C<< tls => 1 >> and is surprised about the
447segmentation fault.

456C<AnyEvent::Handle::TLS_CTX>.
457
458Instead of an object, you can also specify a hash reference with C<< key
459=> value >> pairs. Those will be passed to L<AnyEvent::TLS> to create a
460new TLS context object.
461
462=item on_starttls => $cb->($handle, $success[, $error_message])
463
464This callback will be invoked when the TLS/SSL handshake has finished. If
465C<$success> is true, then the TLS handshake succeeded, otherwise it failed
466(C<on_stoptls> will not be called in this case).
467
468The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
469callback, even when the handshake was not successful.
470
471TLS handshake failures will not cause C<on_error> to be invoked when this
472callback is in effect, instead, the error message will be passed to C<on_starttls>.
473
474Without this callback, handshake failures lead to C<on_error> being
475called as usual.
476
477Note that you cannot just call C<starttls> again in this callback. If you
478need to do that, start an zero-second timer instead whose callback can
479then call C<< ->starttls >> again.
480
481=item on_stoptls => $cb->($handle)
482
483When a SSLv3/TLS shutdown/close notify/EOF is detected and this callback is
484set, then it will be invoked after freeing the TLS session. If it is not,
485then a TLS shutdown condition will be treated like a normal EOF condition
486on the handle.
487
488The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
489callback.
490
491This callback will only be called on TLS shutdowns, not when the
492underlying handle signals EOF.

652 1100
653This function (not method) lets you add your own types to C<push_write>. 1101Sometimes you know you want to close the socket after writing your data
1102before it was actually written. One way to do that is to replace your
1103C<on_drain> handler by a callback that shuts down the socket (and set
1104C<low_water_mark> to C<0>). This method is a shorthand for just that, and
1105replaces the C<on_drain> callback with:
1106
1107 sub { shutdown $_[0]{fh}, 1 }
1108
1109This simply shuts down the write side and signals an EOF condition to the
1110the peer.
1111
1112You can rely on the normal read queue and C<on_eof> handling
1113afterwards. This is the cleanest way to close a connection.
1114
1115This method may invoke callbacks (and therefore the handle might be
1116destroyed after it returns).

1128
1129Instead of one of the predefined types, you can also specify the name of
1130a package. AnyEvent will try to load the package and then expects to find
1131a function named C<anyevent_write_type> inside. If it isn't found, it
1132progressively tries to load the parent package until it either finds the
1133function (good) or runs out of packages (bad).

1231This function (not method) lets you add your own types to C<push_read>. 1758Instead of one of the predefined types, you can also specify the name
1759of a package. AnyEvent will try to load the package and then expects to
1760find a function named C<anyevent_read_type> inside. If it isn't found, it
1761progressively tries to load the parent package until it either finds the
1762function (good) or runs out of packages (bad).

1263These methods will have no effect when in TLS mode (as TLS doesn't support 1793In older versions of this module (<= 5.3), these methods had no effect,
1264half-duplex connections). 1794as TLS does not support half-duplex connections. In current versions they
1795work as expected, as this behaviour is required to avoid certain resource
1796attacks, where the program would be forced to read (and buffer) arbitrary
1797amounts of data before being able to send some data. The drawback is that
1798some readings of the the SSL/TLS specifications basically require this
1799attack to be working, as SSL/TLS implementations might stall sending data
1800during a rehandshake.
1801
1802As a guideline, during the initial handshake, you should not stop reading,
1803and as a client, it might cause problems, depending on your application.

1551 2207
2208=item Why is my C<on_eof> callback never called?
2209
2210Probably because your C<on_error> callback is being called instead: When
2211you have outstanding requests in your read queue, then an EOF is
2212considered an error as you clearly expected some data.
2213
2214To avoid this, make sure you have an empty read queue whenever your handle
2215is supposed to be "idle" (i.e. connection closes are O.K.). You can set
2216an C<on_read> handler that simply pushes the first read requests in the
2217queue.
2218
2219See also the next question, which explains this in a bit more detail.
2220
2221=item How can I serve requests in a loop?
2222
2223Most protocols consist of some setup phase (authentication for example)
2224followed by a request handling phase, where the server waits for requests
2225and handles them, in a loop.
2226
2227There are two important variants: The first (traditional, better) variant
2228handles requests until the server gets some QUIT command, causing it to
2229close the connection first (highly desirable for a busy TCP server). A
2230client dropping the connection is an error, which means this variant can
2231detect an unexpected detection close.
2232
2233To handle this case, always make sure you have a on-empty read queue, by
2234pushing the "read request start" handler on it:
2235
2236 # we assume a request starts with a single line
2237 my @start_request; @start_request = (line => sub {
2238 my ($hdl, $line) = @_;
2239
2240 ... handle request
2241
2242 # push next request read, possibly from a nested callback
2243 $hdl->push_read (@start_request);
2244 });
2245
2246 # auth done, now go into request handling loop
2247 # now push the first @start_request
2248 $hdl->push_read (@start_request);
2249
2250By always having an outstanding C<push_read>, the handle always expects
2251some data and raises the C<EPIPE> error when the connction is dropped
2252unexpectedly.
2253
2254The second variant is a protocol where the client can drop the connection
2255at any time. For TCP, this means that the server machine may run out of
2256sockets easier, and in general, it means you cannot distinguish a protocl
2257failure/client crash from a normal connection close. Nevertheless, these
2258kinds of protocols are common (and sometimes even the best solution to the
2259problem).
2260
2261Having an outstanding read request at all times is possible if you ignore
2262C<EPIPE> errors, but this doesn't help with when the client drops the
2263connection during a request, which would still be an error.
2264
2265A better solution is to push the initial request read in an C<on_read>
2266callback. This avoids an error, as when the server doesn't expect data
2267(i.e. is idly waiting for the next request, an EOF will not raise an
2268error, but simply result in an C<on_eof> callback. It is also a bit slower
2269and simpler:
2270
2271 # auth done, now go into request handling loop
2272 $hdl->on_read (sub {
2273 my ($hdl) = @_;
2274
2275 # called each time we receive data but the read queue is empty
2276 # simply start read the request
2277
2278 $hdl->push_read (line => sub {
2279 my ($hdl, $line) = @_;
2280
2281 ... handle request
2282
2283 # do nothing special when the request has been handled, just
2284 # let the request queue go empty.
2285 });
2286 });

2317
2318Note that this example removes the C<rbuf> member from the handle object,
2319which is not normally allowed by the API. It is expressly permitted in
2320this case only, as the handle object needs to be destroyed afterwards.

2350If your TLS server is a pure TLS server (e.g. HTTPS) that only speaks TLS,
2351connect to it and then create the AnyEvent::Handle with the C<tls>
2352parameter:
2353
2354 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
2355 my ($fh) = @_;
2356
2357 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2358 fh => $fh,
2359 tls => "connect",
2360 on_error => sub { ... };
2361
2362 $handle->push_write (...);
2363 };
2364
2365=item I want to contact a TLS/SSL server, I do care about security.
2366
2367Then you should additionally enable certificate verification, including
2368peername verification, if the protocol you use supports it (see
2369L<AnyEvent::TLS>, C<verify_peername>).
2370
2371E.g. for HTTPS:
2372
2373 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
2374 my ($fh) = @_;
2375
2376 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2377 fh => $fh,
2378 peername => $host,
2379 tls => "connect",
2380 tls_ctx => { verify => 1, verify_peername => "https" },
2381 ...
2382
2383Note that you must specify the hostname you connected to (or whatever
2384"peername" the protocol needs) as the C<peername> argument, otherwise no
2385peername verification will be done.
2386
2387The above will use the system-dependent default set of trusted CA
2388certificates. If you want to check against a specific CA, add the
2389C<ca_file> (or C<ca_cert>) arguments to C<tls_ctx>:
2390
2391 tls_ctx => {
2392 verify => 1,
2393 verify_peername => "https",
2394 ca_file => "my-ca-cert.pem",
2395 },
2396
2397=item I want to create a TLS/SSL server, how do I do that?
2398
2399Well, you first need to get a server certificate and key. You have
2400three options: a) ask a CA (buy one, use cacert.org etc.) b) create a
2401self-signed certificate (cheap. check the search engine of your choice,
2402there are many tutorials on the net) or c) make your own CA (tinyca2 is a
2403nice program for that purpose).
2404
2405Then create a file with your private key (in PEM format, see
2406L<AnyEvent::TLS>), followed by the certificate (also in PEM format). The
2407file should then look like this:
2408
2409 -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2410 ...header data
2411 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2412 -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2413
2414 -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
2415 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2416 -----END CERTIFICATE-----
2417
2418The important bits are the "PRIVATE KEY" and "CERTIFICATE" parts. Then
2419specify this file as C<cert_file>:
2420
2421 tcp_server undef, $port, sub {
2422 my ($fh) = @_;
2423
2424 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2425 fh => $fh,
2426 tls => "accept",
2427 tls_ctx => { cert_file => "my-server-keycert.pem" },
2428 ...
2429
2430When you have intermediate CA certificates that your clients might not
2431know about, just append them to the C<cert_file>.
