76 81
77=item on_eof => $cb->($self) [MANDATORY] 82=item connect => [$host, $service] [C<fh> or C<connect> MANDATORY]
78 83
79Set the callback to be called on EOF. 84Try to connect to the specified host and service (port), using
85C<AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_connect>. The C<$host> additionally becomes the
86default C<peername>.
80 87
88You have to specify either this parameter, or C<fh>, above.
89
90It is possible to push requests on the read and write queues, and modify
91properties of the stream, even while AnyEvent::Handle is connecting.
92
93When this parameter is specified, then the C<on_prepare>,
94C<on_connect_error> and C<on_connect> callbacks will be called under the
95appropriate circumstances:
96
97=over 4
98
81=item on_error => $cb->($self) 99=item on_prepare => $cb->($handle)
82 100
101This (rarely used) callback is called before a new connection is
102attempted, but after the file handle has been created. It could be used to
103prepare the file handle with parameters required for the actual connect
104(as opposed to settings that can be changed when the connection is already
105established).
106
107The return value of this callback should be the connect timeout value in
108seconds (or C<0>, or C<undef>, or the empty list, to indicate the default
109timeout is to be used).
110
111=item on_connect => $cb->($handle, $host, $port, $retry->())
112
113This callback is called when a connection has been successfully established.
114
115The actual numeric host and port (the socket peername) are passed as
116parameters, together with a retry callback.
117
118When, for some reason, the handle is not acceptable, then calling
119C<$retry> will continue with the next conenction target (in case of
120multi-homed hosts or SRV records there can be multiple connection
121endpoints). When it is called then the read and write queues, eof status,
122tls status and similar properties of the handle are being reset.
123
124In most cases, ignoring the C<$retry> parameter is the way to go.
125
126=item on_connect_error => $cb->($handle, $message)
127
128This callback is called when the conenction could not be
129established. C<$!> will contain the relevant error code, and C<$message> a
130message describing it (usually the same as C<"$!">).
131
132If this callback isn't specified, then C<on_error> will be called with a
133fatal error instead.
134
135=back
136
137=item on_error => $cb->($handle, $fatal, $message)
138
83This is the fatal error callback, that is called when, well, a fatal error 139This is the error callback, which is called when, well, some error

86 142
87The object will not be in a usable state when this callback has been 143Some errors are fatal (which is indicated by C<$fatal> being true). On
88called. 144fatal errors the handle object will be destroyed (by a call to C<< ->
145destroy >>) after invoking the error callback (which means you are free to
146examine the handle object). Examples of fatal errors are an EOF condition
147with active (but unsatisifable) read watchers (C<EPIPE>) or I/O errors. In
148cases where the other side can close the connection at their will it is
149often easiest to not report C<EPIPE> errors in this callback.
150
151AnyEvent::Handle tries to find an appropriate error code for you to check
152against, but in some cases (TLS errors), this does not work well. It is
153recommended to always output the C<$message> argument in human-readable
154error messages (it's usually the same as C<"$!">).
155
156Non-fatal errors can be retried by simply returning, but it is recommended
157to simply ignore this parameter and instead abondon the handle object
158when this callback is invoked. Examples of non-fatal errors are timeouts
159C<ETIMEDOUT>) or badly-formatted data (C<EBADMSG>).
89 160

91error (or C<ENOSPC> or C<EPIPE>). 162error code (or C<ENOSPC>, C<EPIPE>, C<ETIMEDOUT>, C<EBADMSG> or
163C<EPROTO>).
92 164
93While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set this callback, as 165While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set this callback, as
94you will not be notified of errors otherwise. The default simply calls 166you will not be notified of errors otherwise. The default simply calls
95die. 167C<croak>.
96 168

98 170
99This sets the default read callback, which is called when data arrives 171This sets the default read callback, which is called when data arrives
100and no read request is in the queue. 172and no read request is in the queue (unlike read queue callbacks, this
173callback will only be called when at least one octet of data is in the
174read buffer).
101 175
102To access (and remove data from) the read buffer, use the C<< ->rbuf >> 176To access (and remove data from) the read buffer, use the C<< ->rbuf >>
103method or acces sthe C<$self->{rbuf}> member directly. 177method or access the C<< $handle->{rbuf} >> member directly. Note that you
178must not enlarge or modify the read buffer, you can only remove data at
179the beginning from it.
104 180
105When an EOF condition is detected then AnyEvent::Handle will first try to 181When an EOF condition is detected then AnyEvent::Handle will first try to
106feed all the remaining data to the queued callbacks and C<on_read> before 182feed all the remaining data to the queued callbacks and C<on_read> before
107calling the C<on_eof> callback. If no progress can be made, then a fatal 183calling the C<on_eof> callback. If no progress can be made, then a fatal
108error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<EPIPE>). 184error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<EPIPE>).
109 185
186Note that, unlike requests in the read queue, an C<on_read> callback
187doesn't mean you I<require> some data: if there is an EOF and there
188are outstanding read requests then an error will be flagged. With an
189C<on_read> callback, the C<on_eof> callback will be invoked.
190
191=item on_eof => $cb->($handle)
192
193Set the callback to be called when an end-of-file condition is detected,
194i.e. in the case of a socket, when the other side has closed the
195connection cleanly, and there are no outstanding read requests in the
196queue (if there are read requests, then an EOF counts as an unexpected
197connection close and will be flagged as an error).
198
199For sockets, this just means that the other side has stopped sending data,
200you can still try to write data, and, in fact, one can return from the EOF
201callback and continue writing data, as only the read part has been shut
202down.
203
204If an EOF condition has been detected but no C<on_eof> callback has been
205set, then a fatal error will be raised with C<$!> set to <0>.
206
110=item on_drain => $cb->() 207=item on_drain => $cb->($handle)
111 208
112This sets the callback that is called when the write buffer becomes empty 209This 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). 210(or when the callback is set and the buffer is empty already).
114 211
115To append to the write buffer, use the C<< ->push_write >> method. 212To append to the write buffer, use the C<< ->push_write >> method.
116 213
214This callback is useful when you don't want to put all of your write data
215into the queue at once, for example, when you want to write the contents
216of some file to the socket you might not want to read the whole file into
217memory and push it into the queue, but instead only read more data from
218the file when the write queue becomes empty.
219
220=item timeout => $fractional_seconds
221
222=item rtimeout => $fractional_seconds
223
224=item wtimeout => $fractional_seconds
225
226If non-zero, then these enables an "inactivity" timeout: whenever this
227many seconds pass without a successful read or write on the underlying
228file handle (or a call to C<timeout_reset>), the C<on_timeout> callback
229will be invoked (and if that one is missing, a non-fatal C<ETIMEDOUT>
230error will be raised).
231
232There are three variants of the timeouts that work fully independent
233of each other, for both read and write, just read, and just write:
234C<timeout>, C<rtimeout> and C<wtimeout>, with corresponding callbacks
235C<on_timeout>, C<on_rtimeout> and C<on_wtimeout>, and reset functions
236C<timeout_reset>, C<rtimeout_reset>, and C<wtimeout_reset>.
237
238Note that timeout processing is also active when you currently do not have
239any outstanding read or write requests: If you plan to keep the connection
240idle then you should disable the timout temporarily or ignore the timeout
241in the C<on_timeout> callback, in which case AnyEvent::Handle will simply
242restart the timeout.
243
244Zero (the default) disables this timeout.
245
246=item on_timeout => $cb->($handle)
247
248Called whenever the inactivity timeout passes. If you return from this
249callback, then the timeout will be reset as if some activity had happened,
250so this condition is not fatal in any way.
251
117=item rbuf_max => <bytes> 252=item rbuf_max => <bytes>

121avoid denial-of-service attacks. 256avoid some forms of denial-of-service attacks.

127isn't finished). 262isn't finished).
128 263
264=item autocork => <boolean>
265
266When disabled (the default), then C<push_write> will try to immediately
267write the data to the handle, if possible. This avoids having to register
268a write watcher and wait for the next event loop iteration, but can
269be inefficient if you write multiple small chunks (on the wire, this
270disadvantage is usually avoided by your kernel's nagle algorithm, see
271C<no_delay>, but this option can save costly syscalls).
272
273When enabled, then writes will always be queued till the next event loop
274iteration. This is efficient when you do many small writes per iteration,
275but less efficient when you do a single write only per iteration (or when
276the write buffer often is full). It also increases write latency.
277
278=item no_delay => <boolean>
279
280When doing small writes on sockets, your operating system kernel might
281wait a bit for more data before actually sending it out. This is called
282the Nagle algorithm, and usually it is beneficial.
283
284In some situations you want as low a delay as possible, which can be
285accomplishd by setting this option to a true value.
286
287The default is your opertaing system's default behaviour (most likely
288enabled), this option explicitly enables or disables it, if possible.
289
129=item read_size => <bytes> 290=item read_size => <bytes>
130 291
131The default read block size (the amount of bytes this module will try to read 292The default read block size (the amount of bytes this module will
132on each [loop iteration). Default: C<4096>. 293try to read during each loop iteration, which affects memory
294requirements). Default: C<8192>.

137buffer: If the write reaches this size or gets even samller it is 299buffer: If the write reaches this size or gets even samller it is
138considered empty. 300considered empty.
139 301
302Sometimes it can be beneficial (for performance reasons) to add data to
303the write buffer before it is fully drained, but this is a rare case, as
304the operating system kernel usually buffers data as well, so the default
305is good in almost all cases.
306
307=item linger => <seconds>
308
309If non-zero (default: C<3600>), then the destructor of the
310AnyEvent::Handle object will check whether there is still outstanding
311write data and will install a watcher that will write this data to the
312socket. No errors will be reported (this mostly matches how the operating
313system treats outstanding data at socket close time).
314
315This will not work for partial TLS data that could not be encoded
316yet. This data will be lost. Calling the C<stoptls> method in time might
317help.
318
319=item peername => $string
320
321A string used to identify the remote site - usually the DNS hostname
322(I<not> IDN!) used to create the connection, rarely the IP address.
323
324Apart from being useful in error messages, this string is also used in TLS
325peername verification (see C<verify_peername> in L<AnyEvent::TLS>). This
326verification will be skipped when C<peername> is not specified or
327C<undef>.
328
329=item tls => "accept" | "connect" | Net::SSLeay::SSL object
330
331When this parameter is given, it enables TLS (SSL) mode, that means
332AnyEvent will start a TLS handshake as soon as the conenction has been
333established and will transparently encrypt/decrypt data afterwards.
334
335All TLS protocol errors will be signalled as C<EPROTO>, with an
336appropriate error message.
337
338TLS mode requires Net::SSLeay to be installed (it will be loaded
339automatically when you try to create a TLS handle): this module doesn't
340have a dependency on that module, so if your module requires it, you have
341to add the dependency yourself.
342
343Unlike TCP, TLS has a server and client side: for the TLS server side, use
344C<accept>, and for the TLS client side of a connection, use C<connect>
345mode.
346
347You can also provide your own TLS connection object, but you have
348to make sure that you call either C<Net::SSLeay::set_connect_state>
349or C<Net::SSLeay::set_accept_state> on it before you pass it to
350AnyEvent::Handle. Also, this module will take ownership of this connection
351object.
352
353At some future point, AnyEvent::Handle might switch to another TLS
354implementation, then the option to use your own session object will go
355away.
356
357B<IMPORTANT:> since Net::SSLeay "objects" are really only integers,
358passing in the wrong integer will lead to certain crash. This most often
359happens when one uses a stylish C<< tls => 1 >> and is surprised about the
360segmentation fault.
361
362See the C<< ->starttls >> method for when need to start TLS negotiation later.
363
364=item tls_ctx => $anyevent_tls
365
366Use the given C<AnyEvent::TLS> object to create the new TLS connection
367(unless a connection object was specified directly). If this parameter is
368missing, then AnyEvent::Handle will use C<AnyEvent::Handle::TLS_CTX>.
369
370Instead of an object, you can also specify a hash reference with C<< key
371=> value >> pairs. Those will be passed to L<AnyEvent::TLS> to create a
372new TLS context object.
373
374=item on_starttls => $cb->($handle, $success[, $error_message])
375
376This callback will be invoked when the TLS/SSL handshake has finished. If
377C<$success> is true, then the TLS handshake succeeded, otherwise it failed
378(C<on_stoptls> will not be called in this case).
379
380The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
381callback, even when the handshake was not successful.
382
383TLS handshake failures will not cause C<on_error> to be invoked when this
384callback is in effect, instead, the error message will be passed to C<on_starttls>.
385
386Without this callback, handshake failures lead to C<on_error> being
387called, as normal.
388
389Note that you cannot call C<starttls> right again in this callback. If you
390need to do that, start an zero-second timer instead whose callback can
391then call C<< ->starttls >> again.
392
393=item on_stoptls => $cb->($handle)
394
395When a SSLv3/TLS shutdown/close notify/EOF is detected and this callback is
396set, then it will be invoked after freeing the TLS session. If it is not,
397then a TLS shutdown condition will be treated like a normal EOF condition
398on the handle.
399
400The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
401callback.
402
403This callback will only be called on TLS shutdowns, not when the
404underlying handle signals EOF.
405
406=item json => JSON or JSON::XS object
407
408This is the json coder object used by the C<json> read and write types.
409
410If you don't supply it, then AnyEvent::Handle will create and use a
411suitable one (on demand), which will write and expect UTF-8 encoded JSON
412texts.
413
414Note that you are responsible to depend on the JSON module if you want to
415use this functionality, as AnyEvent does not have a dependency itself.

850
851=item json => $array_or_hashref
852
853Encodes the given hash or array reference into a JSON object. Unless you
854provide your own JSON object, this means it will be encoded to JSON text
855in UTF-8.
856
857JSON objects (and arrays) are self-delimiting, so you can write JSON at
858one end of a handle and read them at the other end without using any
859additional framing.
860
861The generated JSON text is guaranteed not to contain any newlines: While
862this module doesn't need delimiters after or between JSON texts to be
863able to read them, many other languages depend on that.
864
865A simple RPC protocol that interoperates easily with others is to send
866JSON arrays (or objects, although arrays are usually the better choice as
867they mimic how function argument passing works) and a newline after each
868JSON text:
869
870 $handle->push_write (json => ["method", "arg1", "arg2"]); # whatever
871 $handle->push_write ("\012");
872
873An AnyEvent::Handle receiver would simply use the C<json> read type and
874rely on the fact that the newline will be skipped as leading whitespace:
875
876 $handle->push_read (json => sub { my $array = $_[1]; ... });
877
878Other languages could read single lines terminated by a newline and pass
879this line into their JSON decoder of choice.

909=item $handle->push_shutdown
910
911Sometimes you know you want to close the socket after writing your data
912before it was actually written. One way to do that is to replace your
913C<on_drain> handler by a callback that shuts down the socket (and set
914C<low_water_mark> to C<0>). This method is a shorthand for just that, and
915replaces the C<on_drain> callback with:
916
917 sub { shutdown $_[0]{fh}, 1 } # for push_shutdown
918
919This simply shuts down the write side and signals an EOF condition to the
920the peer.
921
922You can rely on the normal read queue and C<on_eof> handling
923afterwards. This is the cleanest way to close a connection.
924

926
927sub push_shutdown {
928 my ($self) = @_;

932}
933
934=item AnyEvent::Handle::register_write_type type => $coderef->($handle, @args)
935
936This function (not method) lets you add your own types to C<push_write>.
937Whenever the given C<type> is used, C<push_write> will invoke the code
938reference with the handle object and the remaining arguments.
939
940The code reference is supposed to return a single octet string that will
941be appended to the write buffer.
942
943Note that this is a function, and all types registered this way will be
944global, so try to use unique names.

1280
1281Makes a regex match against the regex object C<$accept> and returns
1282everything up to and including the match.
1283
1284Example: read a single line terminated by '\n'.
1285
1286 $handle->push_read (regex => qr<\n>, sub { ... });
1287
1288If C<$reject> is given and not undef, then it determines when the data is
1289to be rejected: it is matched against the data when the C<$accept> regex
1290does not match and generates an C<EBADMSG> error when it matches. This is
1291useful to quickly reject wrong data (to avoid waiting for a timeout or a
1292receive buffer overflow).
1293
1294Example: expect a single decimal number followed by whitespace, reject
1295anything else (not the use of an anchor).
1296
1297 $handle->push_read (regex => qr<^[0-9]+\s>, qr<[^0-9]>, sub { ... });
1298
1299If C<$skip> is given and not C<undef>, then it will be matched against
1300the receive buffer when neither C<$accept> nor C<$reject> match,
1301and everything preceding and including the match will be accepted
1302unconditionally. This is useful to skip large amounts of data that you
1303know cannot be matched, so that the C<$accept> or C<$reject> regex do not
1304have to start matching from the beginning. This is purely an optimisation
1305and is usually worth only when you expect more than a few kilobytes.
1306
1307Example: expect a http header, which ends at C<\015\012\015\012>. Since we
1308expect the header to be very large (it isn't in practise, but...), we use
1309a skip regex to skip initial portions. The skip regex is tricky in that
1310it only accepts something not ending in either \015 or \012, as these are
1311required for the accept regex.

1433Reads a JSON object or array, decodes it and passes it to the
1434callback. When a parse error occurs, an C<EBADMSG> error will be raised.
1435
1436If a C<json> object was passed to the constructor, then that will be used
1437for the final decode, otherwise it will create a JSON coder expecting UTF-8.
1438
1439This read type uses the incremental parser available with JSON version
14402.09 (and JSON::XS version 2.2) and above. You have to provide a
1441dependency on your own: this module will load the JSON module, but
1442AnyEvent does not depend on it itself.
1443
1444Since JSON texts are fully self-delimiting, the C<json> read and write
1445types are an ideal simple RPC protocol: just exchange JSON datagrams. See
1446the C<json> write type description, above, for an actual example.

1535
1536This function (not method) lets you add your own types to C<push_read>.
1537
1538Whenever the given C<type> is used, C<push_read> will invoke the code
1539reference with the handle object, the callback and the remaining
1540arguments.
1541
1542The code reference is supposed to return a callback (usually a closure)
1543that works as a plain read callback (see C<< ->push_read ($cb) >>).
1544
1545It should invoke the passed callback when it is done reading (remember to
1546pass C<$handle> as first argument as all other callbacks do that).
1547
1548Note that this is a function, and all types registered this way will be
1549global, so try to use unique names.
1550
1551For examples, see the source of this module (F<perldoc -m AnyEvent::Handle>,
1552search for C<register_read_type>)).

1564you change the C<on_read> callback or push/unshift a read callback, and it
1565will automatically C<stop_read> for you when neither C<on_read> is set nor
1566there are any read requests in the queue.
1567
1568These methods will have no effect when in TLS mode (as TLS doesn't support

1694Instead of starting TLS negotiation immediately when the AnyEvent::Handle
1695object is created, you can also do that at a later time by calling
1696C<starttls>.
1697
1698Starting TLS is currently an asynchronous operation - when you push some
1699write data and then call C<< ->starttls >> then TLS negotiation will start
1700immediately, after which the queued write data is then sent.
1701
1702The first argument is the same as the C<tls> constructor argument (either
1703C<"connect">, C<"accept"> or an existing Net::SSLeay object).
1704
1705The second argument is the optional C<AnyEvent::TLS> object that is used
1706when AnyEvent::Handle has to create its own TLS connection object, or
1707a hash reference with C<< key => value >> pairs that will be used to
1708construct a new context.
1709
1710The TLS connection object will end up in C<< $handle->{tls} >>, the TLS
1711context in C<< $handle->{tls_ctx} >> after this call and can be used or
1712changed to your liking. Note that the handshake might have already started
1713when this function returns.
1714
1715Due to bugs in OpenSSL, it might or might not be possible to do multiple
1716handshakes on the same stream. Best do not attempt to use the stream after
1717stopping TLS.

1852
1853Shuts down the handle object as much as possible - this call ensures that
1854no further callbacks will be invoked and as many resources as possible
1855will be freed. Any method you will call on the handle object after
1856destroying it in this way will be silently ignored (and it will return the
1857empty list).
1858
1859Normally, you can just "forget" any references to an AnyEvent::Handle
1860object and it will simply shut down. This works in fatal error and EOF
1861callbacks, as well as code outside. It does I<NOT> work in a read or write
1862callback, so when you want to destroy the AnyEvent::Handle object from
1863within such an callback. You I<MUST> call C<< ->destroy >> explicitly in
1864that case.
1865
1866Destroying the handle object in this way has the advantage that callbacks
1867will be removed as well, so if those are the only reference holders (as
1868is common), then one doesn't need to do anything special to break any
1869reference cycles.
1870

1914=item I C<undef> the AnyEvent::Handle reference inside my callback and
1915still get further invocations!
1916
1917That's because AnyEvent::Handle keeps a reference to itself when handling
1918read or write callbacks.
1919
1920It is only safe to "forget" the reference inside EOF or error callbacks,
1921from within all other callbacks, you need to explicitly call the C<<
1922->destroy >> method.
1923
1924=item I get different callback invocations in TLS mode/Why can't I pause
1925reading?
1926
1927Unlike, say, TCP, TLS connections do not consist of two independent
1928communication channels, one for each direction. Or put differently. The
1929read and write directions are not independent of each other: you cannot
1930write data unless you are also prepared to read, and vice versa.
1931
1932This can mean than, in TLS mode, you might get C<on_error> or C<on_eof>
1933callback invocations when you are not expecting any read data - the reason
1934is that AnyEvent::Handle always reads in TLS mode.
1935
1936During the connection, you have to make sure that you always have a
1937non-empty read-queue, or an C<on_read> watcher. At the end of the
1938connection (or when you no longer want to use it) you can call the
1939C<destroy> method.
1940
1941=item How do I read data until the other side closes the connection?
1942
1943If you just want to read your data into a perl scalar, the easiest way
1944to achieve this is by setting an C<on_read> callback that does nothing,
1945clearing the C<on_eof> callback and in the C<on_error> callback, the data
1946will be in C<$_[0]{rbuf}>:
1947
1948 $handle->on_read (sub { });
1949 $handle->on_eof (undef);
1950 $handle->on_error (sub {
1951 my $data = delete $_[0]{rbuf};
1952 });
1953
1954The reason to use C<on_error> is that TCP connections, due to latencies
1955and packets loss, might get closed quite violently with an error, when in
1956fact, all data has been received.
1957
1958It is usually better to use acknowledgements when transferring data,
1959to make sure the other side hasn't just died and you got the data
1960intact. This is also one reason why so many internet protocols have an
1961explicit QUIT command.
1962
1963=item I don't want to destroy the handle too early - how do I wait until
1964all data has been written?
1965
1966After writing your last bits of data, set the C<on_drain> callback
1967and destroy the handle in there - with the default setting of
1968C<low_water_mark> this will be called precisely when all data has been
1969written to the socket:
1970
1971 $handle->push_write (...);
1972 $handle->on_drain (sub {
1973 warn "all data submitted to the kernel\n";
1974 undef $handle;
1975 });
1976
1977If you just want to queue some data and then signal EOF to the other side,
1978consider using C<< ->push_shutdown >> instead.
1979
1980=item I want to contact a TLS/SSL server, I don't care about security.
1981
1982If your TLS server is a pure TLS server (e.g. HTTPS) that only speaks TLS,
1983simply connect to it and then create the AnyEvent::Handle with the C<tls>
1984parameter:
1985
1986 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
1987 my ($fh) = @_;
1988
1989 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
1990 fh => $fh,
1991 tls => "connect",
1992 on_error => sub { ... };
1993
1994 $handle->push_write (...);
1995 };
1996
1997=item I want to contact a TLS/SSL server, I do care about security.
1998
1999Then you should additionally enable certificate verification, including
2000peername verification, if the protocol you use supports it (see
2001L<AnyEvent::TLS>, C<verify_peername>).
2002
2003E.g. for HTTPS:
2004
2005 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
2006 my ($fh) = @_;
2007
2008 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2009 fh => $fh,
2010 peername => $host,
2011 tls => "connect",
2012 tls_ctx => { verify => 1, verify_peername => "https" },
2013 ...
2014
2015Note that you must specify the hostname you connected to (or whatever
2016"peername" the protocol needs) as the C<peername> argument, otherwise no
2017peername verification will be done.
2018
2019The above will use the system-dependent default set of trusted CA
2020certificates. If you want to check against a specific CA, add the
2021C<ca_file> (or C<ca_cert>) arguments to C<tls_ctx>:
2022
2023 tls_ctx => {
2024 verify => 1,
2025 verify_peername => "https",
2026 ca_file => "my-ca-cert.pem",
2027 },
2028
2029=item I want to create a TLS/SSL server, how do I do that?
2030
2031Well, you first need to get a server certificate and key. You have
2032three options: a) ask a CA (buy one, use cacert.org etc.) b) create a
2033self-signed certificate (cheap. check the search engine of your choice,
2034there are many tutorials on the net) or c) make your own CA (tinyca2 is a
2035nice program for that purpose).
2036
2037Then create a file with your private key (in PEM format, see
2038L<AnyEvent::TLS>), followed by the certificate (also in PEM format). The
2039file should then look like this:
2040
2041 -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2042 ...header data
2043 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2044 -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2045
2046 -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
2047 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2048 -----END CERTIFICATE-----
2049
2050The important bits are the "PRIVATE KEY" and "CERTIFICATE" parts. Then
2051specify this file as C<cert_file>:
2052
2053 tcp_server undef, $port, sub {
2054 my ($fh) = @_;
2055
2056 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2057 fh => $fh,
2058 tls => "accept",
2059 tls_ctx => { cert_file => "my-server-keycert.pem" },
2060 ...
2061
2062When you have intermediate CA certificates that your clients might not
2063know about, just append them to the C<cert_file>.

2068=head1 SUBCLASSING AnyEvent::Handle
2069
2070In many cases, you might want to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
2071
2072To make this easier, a given version of AnyEvent::Handle uses these
2073conventions:
2074
2075=over 4
2076
2077=item * all constructor arguments become object members.
2078
2079At least initially, when you pass a C<tls>-argument to the constructor it
2080will end up in C<< $handle->{tls} >>. Those members might be changed or
2081mutated later on (for example C<tls> will hold the TLS connection object).
2082
2083=item * other object member names are prefixed with an C<_>.
2084
2085All object members not explicitly documented (internal use) are prefixed
2086with an underscore character, so the remaining non-C<_>-namespace is free
2087for use for subclasses.
2088
2089=item * all members not documented here and not prefixed with an underscore
2090are free to use in subclasses.
2091
2092Of course, new versions of AnyEvent::Handle may introduce more "public"
2093member variables, but thats just life, at least it is documented.
