64=head2 SIGPIPE is not handled by this module
65
66SIGPIPE is not handled by this module, so one of the practical
67requirements of using it is to ignore SIGPIPE (C<$SIG{PIPE} =
68'IGNORE'>). At least, this is highly recommend in a networked program: If
69you use AnyEvent::Handle in a filter program (like sort), exiting on
70SIGPIPE is probably the right thing to do.

78
79Set the callback to be called on EOF.
80
81=item on_error => $cb->($self) 90=item on_eof => $cb->($handle)
82 91
92Set the callback to be called when an end-of-file condition is detected,
93i.e. in the case of a socket, when the other side has closed the
94connection cleanly.
95
96For sockets, this just means that the other side has stopped sending data,
97you can still try to write data, and, in fact, one can return from the eof
98callback and continue writing data, as only the read part has been shut
99down.
100
101While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set an eof callback,
102otherwise you might end up with a closed socket while you are still
103waiting for data.
104
105If an EOF condition has been detected but no C<on_eof> callback has been
106set, then a fatal error will be raised with C<$!> set to <0>.
107
108=item on_error => $cb->($handle, $fatal)
109
83This is the fatal error callback, that is called when, well, a fatal error 110This is the error callback, which is called when, well, some error

88called. 115fatal errors the handle object will be shut down and will not be usable
116(but you are free to look at the current C<< ->rbuf >>). Examples of fatal
117errors are an EOF condition with active (but unsatisifable) read watchers
118(C<EPIPE>) or I/O errors.
119
120Non-fatal errors can be retried by simply returning, but it is recommended
121to simply ignore this parameter and instead abondon the handle object
122when this callback is invoked. Examples of non-fatal errors are timeouts
123C<ETIMEDOUT>) or badly-formatted data (C<EBADMSG>).

136callback will only be called when at least one octet of data is in the
137read buffer).

112This sets the callback that is called when the write buffer becomes empty 149This sets the callback that is called when the write buffer becomes empty
113(or when the callback is set and the buffer is empty already). 150(or when the callback is set and the buffer is empty already).
114 151
115To append to the write buffer, use the C<< ->push_write >> method. 152To append to the write buffer, use the C<< ->push_write >> method.
116 153
154This callback is useful when you don't want to put all of your write data
155into the queue at once, for example, when you want to write the contents
156of some file to the socket you might not want to read the whole file into
157memory and push it into the queue, but instead only read more data from
158the file when the write queue becomes empty.
159
160=item timeout => $fractional_seconds
161
162If non-zero, then this enables an "inactivity" timeout: whenever this many
163seconds pass without a successful read or write on the underlying file
164handle, the C<on_timeout> callback will be invoked (and if that one is
165missing, a non-fatal C<ETIMEDOUT> error will be raised).
166
167Note that timeout processing is also active when you currently do not have
168any outstanding read or write requests: If you plan to keep the connection
169idle then you should disable the timout temporarily or ignore the timeout
170in the C<on_timeout> callback, in which case AnyEvent::Handle will simply
171restart the timeout.
172
173Zero (the default) disables this timeout.
174
175=item on_timeout => $cb->($handle)
176
177Called whenever the inactivity timeout passes. If you return from this
178callback, then the timeout will be reset as if some activity had happened,
179so this condition is not fatal in any way.

121avoid denial-of-service attacks. 185avoid some forms of denial-of-service attacks.

127isn't finished). 191isn't finished).
128 192
193=item autocork => <boolean>
194
195When disabled (the default), then C<push_write> will try to immediately
196write the data to the handle, if possible. This avoids having to register
197a write watcher and wait for the next event loop iteration, but can
198be inefficient if you write multiple small chunks (on the wire, this
199disadvantage is usually avoided by your kernel's nagle algorithm, see
200C<no_delay>, but this option can save costly syscalls).
201
202When enabled, then writes will always be queued till the next event loop
203iteration. This is efficient when you do many small writes per iteration,
204but less efficient when you do a single write only per iteration (or when
205the write buffer often is full). It also increases write latency.
206
207=item no_delay => <boolean>
208
209When doing small writes on sockets, your operating system kernel might
210wait a bit for more data before actually sending it out. This is called
211the Nagle algorithm, and usually it is beneficial.
212
213In some situations you want as low a delay as possible, which can be
214accomplishd by setting this option to a true value.
215
216The default is your opertaing system's default behaviour (most likely
217enabled), this option explicitly enables or disables it, if possible.
218

138considered empty. 229considered empty.
139 230
231Sometimes it can be beneficial (for performance reasons) to add data to
232the write buffer before it is fully drained, but this is a rare case, as
233the operating system kernel usually buffers data as well, so the default
234is good in almost all cases.
235
236=item linger => <seconds>
237
238If non-zero (default: C<3600>), then the destructor of the
239AnyEvent::Handle object will check whether there is still outstanding
240write data and will install a watcher that will write this data to the
241socket. No errors will be reported (this mostly matches how the operating
242system treats outstanding data at socket close time).
243
244This will not work for partial TLS data that could not be encoded
245yet. This data will be lost.
246
247=item tls => "accept" | "connect" | Net::SSLeay::SSL object
248
249When this parameter is given, it enables TLS (SSL) mode, that means
250AnyEvent will start a TLS handshake as soon as the conenction has been
251established and will transparently encrypt/decrypt data afterwards.
252
253TLS mode requires Net::SSLeay to be installed (it will be loaded
254automatically when you try to create a TLS handle): this module doesn't
255have a dependency on that module, so if your module requires it, you have
256to add the dependency yourself.
257
258Unlike TCP, TLS has a server and client side: for the TLS server side, use
259C<accept>, and for the TLS client side of a connection, use C<connect>
260mode.
261
262You can also provide your own TLS connection object, but you have
263to make sure that you call either C<Net::SSLeay::set_connect_state>
264or C<Net::SSLeay::set_accept_state> on it before you pass it to
265AnyEvent::Handle.
266
267See the C<< ->starttls >> method for when need to start TLS negotiation later.
268
269=item tls_ctx => $ssl_ctx
270
271Use the given C<Net::SSLeay::CTX> object to create the new TLS connection
272(unless a connection object was specified directly). If this parameter is
273missing, then AnyEvent::Handle will use C<AnyEvent::Handle::TLS_CTX>.
274
275=item json => JSON or JSON::XS object
276
277This is the json coder object used by the C<json> read and write types.
278
279If you don't supply it, then AnyEvent::Handle will create and use a
280suitable one (on demand), which will write and expect UTF-8 encoded JSON
281texts.
282
283Note that you are responsible to depend on the JSON module if you want to
284use this functionality, as AnyEvent does not have a dependency itself.

571Instead of formatting your data yourself, you can also let this module do
572the job by specifying a type and type-specific arguments.

592=item packstring => $format, $data
593
594An octet string prefixed with an encoded length. The encoding C<$format>
595uses the same format as a Perl C<pack> format, but must specify a single
596integer only (only one of C<cCsSlLqQiInNvVjJw> is allowed, plus an
597optional C<!>, C<< < >> or C<< > >> modifier).

606
607=item json => $array_or_hashref
608
609Encodes the given hash or array reference into a JSON object. Unless you
610provide your own JSON object, this means it will be encoded to JSON text
611in UTF-8.
612
613JSON objects (and arrays) are self-delimiting, so you can write JSON at
614one end of a handle and read them at the other end without using any
615additional framing.
616
617The generated JSON text is guaranteed not to contain any newlines: While
618this module doesn't need delimiters after or between JSON texts to be
619able to read them, many other languages depend on that.
620
621A simple RPC protocol that interoperates easily with others is to send
622JSON arrays (or objects, although arrays are usually the better choice as
623they mimic how function argument passing works) and a newline after each
624JSON text:
625
626 $handle->push_write (json => ["method", "arg1", "arg2"]); # whatever
627 $handle->push_write ("\012");
628
629An AnyEvent::Handle receiver would simply use the C<json> read type and
630rely on the fact that the newline will be skipped as leading whitespace:
631
632 $handle->push_read (json => sub { my $array = $_[1]; ... });
633
634Other languages could read single lines terminated by a newline and pass
635this line into their JSON decoder of choice.

665=item AnyEvent::Handle::register_write_type type => $coderef->($handle, @args)
666
667This function (not method) lets you add your own types to C<push_write>.
668Whenever the given C<type> is used, C<push_write> will invoke the code
669reference with the handle object and the remaining arguments.
670
671The code reference is supposed to return a single octet string that will
672be appended to the write buffer.
673
674Note that this is a function, and all types registered this way will be
675global, so try to use unique names.

1000=item regex => $accept[, $reject[, $skip], $cb->($handle, $data)
1001
1002Makes a regex match against the regex object C<$accept> and returns
1003everything up to and including the match.
1004
1005Example: read a single line terminated by '\n'.
1006
1007 $handle->push_read (regex => qr<\n>, sub { ... });
1008
1009If C<$reject> is given and not undef, then it determines when the data is
1010to be rejected: it is matched against the data when the C<$accept> regex
1011does not match and generates an C<EBADMSG> error when it matches. This is
1012useful to quickly reject wrong data (to avoid waiting for a timeout or a
1013receive buffer overflow).
1014
1015Example: expect a single decimal number followed by whitespace, reject
1016anything else (not the use of an anchor).
1017
1018 $handle->push_read (regex => qr<^[0-9]+\s>, qr<[^0-9]>, sub { ... });
1019
1020If C<$skip> is given and not C<undef>, then it will be matched against
1021the receive buffer when neither C<$accept> nor C<$reject> match,
1022and everything preceding and including the match will be accepted
1023unconditionally. This is useful to skip large amounts of data that you
1024know cannot be matched, so that the C<$accept> or C<$reject> regex do not
1025have to start matching from the beginning. This is purely an optimisation
1026and is usually worth only when you expect more than a few kilobytes.
1027
1028Example: expect a http header, which ends at C<\015\012\015\012>. Since we
1029expect the header to be very large (it isn't in practise, but...), we use
1030a skip regex to skip initial portions. The skip regex is tricky in that
1031it only accepts something not ending in either \015 or \012, as these are
1032required for the accept regex.

1034 $handle->push_read (regex =>
1035 qr<\015\012\015\012>,

1154
1155If a C<json> object was passed to the constructor, then that will be used
1156for the final decode, otherwise it will create a JSON coder expecting UTF-8.
1157
1158This read type uses the incremental parser available with JSON version
11592.09 (and JSON::XS version 2.2) and above. You have to provide a
1160dependency on your own: this module will load the JSON module, but
1161AnyEvent does not depend on it itself.
1162
1163Since JSON texts are fully self-delimiting, the C<json> read and write
1164types are an ideal simple RPC protocol: just exchange JSON datagrams. See

1243
1244This function (not method) lets you add your own types to C<push_read>.
1245
1246Whenever the given C<type> is used, C<push_read> will invoke the code
1247reference with the handle object, the callback and the remaining
1248arguments.
1249
1250The code reference is supposed to return a callback (usually a closure)
1251that works as a plain read callback (see C<< ->push_read ($cb) >>).
1252
1253It should invoke the passed callback when it is done reading (remember to
1254pass C<$handle> as first argument as all other callbacks do that).
1255
1256Note that this is a function, and all types registered this way will be
1257global, so try to use unique names.
1258

1522=head1 SUBCLASSING AnyEvent::Handle
1523
1524In many cases, you might want to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
1525
1526To make this easier, a given version of AnyEvent::Handle uses these
1527conventions:
1528
1529=over 4
1530
1531=item * all constructor arguments become object members.
1532
1533At least initially, when you pass a C<tls>-argument to the constructor it
1534will end up in C<< $handle->{tls} >>. Those members might be changed or
1535mutated later on (for example C<tls> will hold the TLS connection object).
1536
1537=item * other object member names are prefixed with an C<_>.
1538
1539All object members not explicitly documented (internal use) are prefixed
1540with an underscore character, so the remaining non-C<_>-namespace is free
1541for use for subclasses.
1542
1543=item * all members not documented here and not prefixed with an underscore
1544are free to use in subclasses.
1545
1546Of course, new versions of AnyEvent::Handle may introduce more "public"
1547member variables, but thats just life, at least it is documented.
