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, $retry->())
129
130This callback is called when a connection has been successfully established.
131
132The peer's numeric host and port (the socket peername) are passed as
133parameters, together with a retry callback.
134
135If, for some reason, the handle is not acceptable, calling C<$retry>
136will continue with the next connection target (in case of multi-homed
137hosts or SRV records there can be multiple connection endpoints). At the
138time it is called the read and write queues, eof status, tls status and
139similar properties of the handle will have been reset.
140
141In most cases, you should ignore the C<$retry> parameter.
142
143=item on_connect_error => $cb->($handle, $message)
144
145This callback is called when the connection could not be
146established. C<$!> will contain the relevant error code, and C<$message> a
147message describing it (usually the same as C<"$!">).
148
149If this callback isn't specified, then C<on_error> will be called with a
150fatal error instead.
151
152=back
153
154=item on_error => $cb->($handle, $fatal, $message)
155
156This is the error callback, which is called when, well, some error
157occured, such as not being able to resolve the hostname, failure to
158connect, or a read error.
159
160Some errors are fatal (which is indicated by C<$fatal> being true). On
161fatal errors the handle object will be destroyed (by a call to C<< ->
162destroy >>) after invoking the error callback (which means you are free to
163examine the handle object). Examples of fatal errors are an EOF condition
164with active (but unsatisfiable) read watchers (C<EPIPE>) or I/O errors. In
165cases where the other side can close the connection at will, it is
166often easiest to not report C<EPIPE> errors in this callback.
167
168AnyEvent::Handle tries to find an appropriate error code for you to check
169against, but in some cases (TLS errors), this does not work well. It is
170recommended to always output the C<$message> argument in human-readable
171error messages (it's usually the same as C<"$!">).
172
173Non-fatal errors can be retried by returning, but it is recommended
174to simply ignore this parameter and instead abondon the handle object
175when this callback is invoked. Examples of non-fatal errors are timeouts
176C<ETIMEDOUT>) or badly-formatted data (C<EBADMSG>).
177
178On entry to the callback, the value of C<$!> contains the operating
179system error code (or C<ENOSPC>, C<EPIPE>, C<ETIMEDOUT>, C<EBADMSG> or
180C<EPROTO>).
181
182While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set this callback, as
183you will not be notified of errors otherwise. The default just calls
184C<croak>.
185
186=item on_read => $cb->($handle)
187
188This sets the default read callback, which is called when data arrives
189and no read request is in the queue (unlike read queue callbacks, this
190callback will only be called when at least one octet of data is in the
191read buffer).
192
193To access (and remove data from) the read buffer, use the C<< ->rbuf >>
194method or access the C<< $handle->{rbuf} >> member directly. Note that you
195must not enlarge or modify the read buffer, you can only remove data at
196the beginning from it.
197
198You can also call C<< ->push_read (...) >> or any other function that
199modifies the read queue. Or do both. Or ...
200
201When an EOF condition is detected, AnyEvent::Handle will first try to
202feed all the remaining data to the queued callbacks and C<on_read> before
203calling the C<on_eof> callback. If no progress can be made, then a fatal
204error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<EPIPE>).
205
206Note that, unlike requests in the read queue, an C<on_read> callback
207doesn't mean you I<require> some data: if there is an EOF and there
208are outstanding read requests then an error will be flagged. With an
209C<on_read> callback, the C<on_eof> callback will be invoked.
210

216queue (if there are read requests, then an EOF counts as an unexpected
217connection close and will be flagged as an error).

92 223
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.

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
112AnyEvent::Handle tries to find an appropriate error code for you to check

119when this callback is invoked. Examples of non-fatal errors are timeouts
120C<ETIMEDOUT>) or badly-formatted data (C<EBADMSG>).
121
122On callback entrance, the value of C<$!> contains the operating system
123error code (or C<ENOSPC>, C<EPIPE>, C<ETIMEDOUT>, C<EBADMSG> or
124C<EPROTO>).
125
126While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set this callback, as
127you will not be notified of errors otherwise. The default simply calls
128C<croak>.

166 251
252There are three variants of the timeouts that work independently of each
253other, for both read and write (triggered when nothing was read I<OR>
254written), just read (triggered when nothing was read), and just write:
255C<timeout>, C<rtimeout> and C<wtimeout>, with corresponding callbacks

289=item wbuf_max => <bytes>
290
291If defined, then a fatal error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<ENOSPC>)
292when the write buffer ever (strictly) exceeds this size. This is useful to
293avoid some forms of denial-of-service attacks.
294
295Although the units of this parameter is bytes, this is the I<raw> number
296of bytes not yet accepted by the kernel. This can make a difference when
297you e.g. use TLS, as TLS typically makes your write data larger (but it
298can also make it smaller due to compression).
299
300As an example of when this limit is useful, take a chat server that sends
301chat messages to a client. If the client does not read those in a timely
302manner then the send buffer in the server would grow unbounded.

329
330=item keepalive => <boolean>
331
332Enables (default disable) the SO_KEEPALIVE option on the stream socket:
333normally, TCP connections have no time-out once established, so TCP
334connections, once established, can stay alive forever even when the other
335side has long gone. TCP keepalives are a cheap way to take down long-lived
336TCP connections when the other side becomes unreachable. While the default
337is OS-dependent, TCP keepalives usually kick in after around two hours,
338and, if the other side doesn't reply, take down the TCP connection some 10
339to 15 minutes later.
340
341It is harmless to specify this option for file handles that do not support
342keepalives, and enabling it on connections that are potentially long-lived
343is usually a good idea.
344
345=item oobinline => <boolean>
346
347BSD majorly fucked up the implementation of TCP urgent data. The result
348is that almost no OS implements TCP according to the specs, and every OS
349implements it slightly differently.
350
351If you want to handle TCP urgent data, then setting this flag (the default
352is enabled) gives you the most portable way of getting urgent data, by
353putting it into the stream.
354
355Since BSD emulation of OOB data on top of TCP's urgent data can have
356security implications, AnyEvent::Handle sets this flag automatically
357unless explicitly specified. Note that setting this flag after
358establishing a connection I<may> be a bit too late (data loss could
359already have occured on BSD systems), but at least it will protect you
360from most attacks.

373algorithm: Each time AnyEvent::Handle can read C<read_size> bytes in

1304This function (not method) lets you add your own types to C<push_read>. 1752Instead of one of the predefined types, you can also specify the name
1753of a package. AnyEvent will try to load the package and then expects to
1754find a function named C<anyevent_read_type> inside. If it isn't found, it
1755progressively tries to load the parent package until it either finds the
1756function (good) or runs out of packages (bad).
1305 1757
1306Whenever the given C<type> is used, C<push_read> will invoke the code 1758Whenever this type is used, C<push_read> will invoke the function with the
1307reference with the handle object, the callback and the remaining 1759handle object, the original callback and the remaining arguments.

1311that works as a plain read callback (see C<< ->push_read ($cb) >>). 1762works as a plain read callback (see C<< ->push_read ($cb) >>), so you can

1336These methods will have no effect when in TLS mode (as TLS doesn't support 1787In older versions of this module (<= 5.3), these methods had no effect,
1337half-duplex connections). 1788as TLS does not support half-duplex connections. In current versions they
1789work as expected, as this behaviour is required to avoid certain resource
1790attacks, where the program would be forced to read (and buffer) arbitrary
1791amounts of data before being able to send some data. The drawback is that
1792some readings of the the SSL/TLS specifications basically require this
1793attack to be working, as SSL/TLS implementations might stall sending data
1794during a rehandshake.
1795
1796As a guideline, during the initial handshake, you should not stop reading,
1797and as a client, it might cause problems, depending on your application.

2148Can be useful to decide whether the handle is still valid after some

2151can destroy the handle, so work can be avoided by checking sometimes:

1637 2201
2202=item Why is my C<on_eof> callback never called?
2203
2204Probably because your C<on_error> callback is being called instead: When
2205you have outstanding requests in your read queue, then an EOF is
2206considered an error as you clearly expected some data.
2207
2208To avoid this, make sure you have an empty read queue whenever your handle
2209is supposed to be "idle" (i.e. connection closes are O.K.). You can set
2210an C<on_read> handler that simply pushes the first read requests in the
2211queue.
2212
2213See also the next question, which explains this in a bit more detail.
2214
2215=item How can I serve requests in a loop?
2216
2217Most protocols consist of some setup phase (authentication for example)
2218followed by a request handling phase, where the server waits for requests
2219and handles them, in a loop.
2220
2221There are two important variants: The first (traditional, better) variant
2222handles requests until the server gets some QUIT command, causing it to
2223close the connection first (highly desirable for a busy TCP server). A
2224client dropping the connection is an error, which means this variant can
2225detect an unexpected detection close.
2226
2227To handle this case, always make sure you have a on-empty read queue, by
2228pushing the "read request start" handler on it:
2229
2230 # we assume a request starts with a single line
2231 my @start_request; @start_request = (line => sub {
2232 my ($hdl, $line) = @_;
2233
2234 ... handle request
2235
2236 # push next request read, possibly from a nested callback
2237 $hdl->push_read (@start_request);
2238 });
2239
2240 # auth done, now go into request handling loop
2241 # now push the first @start_request
2242 $hdl->push_read (@start_request);
2243
2244By always having an outstanding C<push_read>, the handle always expects
2245some data and raises the C<EPIPE> error when the connction is dropped
2246unexpectedly.
2247
2248The second variant is a protocol where the client can drop the connection
2249at any time. For TCP, this means that the server machine may run out of
2250sockets easier, and in general, it means you cannot distinguish a protocl
2251failure/client crash from a normal connection close. Nevertheless, these
2252kinds of protocols are common (and sometimes even the best solution to the
2253problem).
2254
2255Having an outstanding read request at all times is possible if you ignore
2256C<EPIPE> errors, but this doesn't help with when the client drops the
2257connection during a request, which would still be an error.
2258
2259A better solution is to push the initial request read in an C<on_read>
2260callback. This avoids an error, as when the server doesn't expect data
2261(i.e. is idly waiting for the next request, an EOF will not raise an
2262error, but simply result in an C<on_eof> callback. It is also a bit slower
2263and simpler:
2264
2265 # auth done, now go into request handling loop
2266 $hdl->on_read (sub {
2267 my ($hdl) = @_;
2268
2269 # called each time we receive data but the read queue is empty
2270 # simply start read the request
2271
2272 $hdl->push_read (line => sub {
2273 my ($hdl, $line) = @_;
2274
2275 ... handle request
2276
2277 # do nothing special when the request has been handled, just
2278 # let the request queue go empty.
2279 });
2280 });

2312Note that this example removes the C<rbuf> member from the handle object,
2313which is not normally allowed by the API. It is expressly permitted in

2339If you just want to queue some data and then signal EOF to the other side,
2340consider using C<< ->push_shutdown >> instead.

2343
2344If your TLS server is a pure TLS server (e.g. HTTPS) that only speaks TLS,
2345connect to it and then create the AnyEvent::Handle with the C<tls>
2346parameter:
2347
2348 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
2349 my ($fh) = @_;
2350
2351 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2352 fh => $fh,
2353 tls => "connect",
2354 on_error => sub { ... };
2355
2356 $handle->push_write (...);
2357 };
2358
2359=item I want to contact a TLS/SSL server, I do care about security.
2360
2361Then you should additionally enable certificate verification, including
2362peername verification, if the protocol you use supports it (see
2363L<AnyEvent::TLS>, C<verify_peername>).
2364
2365E.g. for HTTPS:
2366
2367 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
2368 my ($fh) = @_;
2369
2370 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2371 fh => $fh,
2372 peername => $host,
2373 tls => "connect",
2374 tls_ctx => { verify => 1, verify_peername => "https" },
2375 ...
2376
2377Note that you must specify the hostname you connected to (or whatever
2378"peername" the protocol needs) as the C<peername> argument, otherwise no
2379peername verification will be done.
2380
2381The above will use the system-dependent default set of trusted CA
2382certificates. If you want to check against a specific CA, add the
2383C<ca_file> (or C<ca_cert>) arguments to C<tls_ctx>:
2384
2385 tls_ctx => {
2386 verify => 1,
2387 verify_peername => "https",
2388 ca_file => "my-ca-cert.pem",
2389 },
2390
2391=item I want to create a TLS/SSL server, how do I do that?
2392
2393Well, you first need to get a server certificate and key. You have
2394three options: a) ask a CA (buy one, use cacert.org etc.) b) create a
2395self-signed certificate (cheap. check the search engine of your choice,
2396there are many tutorials on the net) or c) make your own CA (tinyca2 is a
2397nice program for that purpose).
2398
2399Then create a file with your private key (in PEM format, see
2400L<AnyEvent::TLS>), followed by the certificate (also in PEM format). The
2401file should then look like this:
2402
2403 -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2404 ...header data
2405 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2406 -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2407
2408 -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
2409 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2410 -----END CERTIFICATE-----
2411
2412The important bits are the "PRIVATE KEY" and "CERTIFICATE" parts. Then
2413specify this file as C<cert_file>:
2414
2415 tcp_server undef, $port, sub {
2416 my ($fh) = @_;
2417
2418 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2419 fh => $fh,
2420 tls => "accept",
2421 tls_ctx => { cert_file => "my-server-keycert.pem" },
2422 ...
2423
2424When you have intermediate CA certificates that your clients might not
2425know about, just append them to the C<cert_file>.
