51filehandles. For utility functions for doing non-blocking connects and accepts 36stream-based filehandles (sockets, pipes, and other stream things).
52on sockets see L<AnyEvent::Util>.

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

104This sets the default read callback, which is called when data arrives 197This sets the default read callback, which is called when data arrives
105and no read request is in the queue. 198and no read request is in the queue (unlike read queue callbacks, this
199callback will only be called when at least one octet of data is in the
200read buffer).
106 201
107To access (and remove data from) the read buffer, use the C<< ->rbuf >> 202To access (and remove data from) the read buffer, use the C<< ->rbuf >>
108method or access the C<$self->{rbuf}> member directly. 203method or access the C<< $handle->{rbuf} >> member directly. Note that you
204must not enlarge or modify the read buffer, you can only remove data at
205the beginning from it.
109 206
207You can also call C<< ->push_read (...) >> or any other function that
208modifies the read queue. Or do both. Or ...
209
110When an EOF condition is detected then AnyEvent::Handle will first try to 210When an EOF condition is detected, AnyEvent::Handle will first try to
111feed all the remaining data to the queued callbacks and C<on_read> before 211feed all the remaining data to the queued callbacks and C<on_read> before
112calling the C<on_eof> callback. If no progress can be made, then a fatal 212calling the C<on_eof> callback. If no progress can be made, then a fatal
113error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<EPIPE>). 213error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<EPIPE>).
114 214
215Note that, unlike requests in the read queue, an C<on_read> callback
216doesn't mean you I<require> some data: if there is an EOF and there
217are outstanding read requests then an error will be flagged. With an
218C<on_read> callback, the C<on_eof> callback will be invoked.
219
220=item on_eof => $cb->($handle)
221
222Set the callback to be called when an end-of-file condition is detected,
223i.e. in the case of a socket, when the other side has closed the
224connection cleanly, and there are no outstanding read requests in the
225queue (if there are read requests, then an EOF counts as an unexpected
226connection close and will be flagged as an error).
227
228For sockets, this just means that the other side has stopped sending data,
229you can still try to write data, and, in fact, one can return from the EOF
230callback and continue writing data, as only the read part has been shut
231down.
232
233If an EOF condition has been detected but no C<on_eof> callback has been
234set, then a fatal error will be raised with C<$!> set to <0>.
235
115=item on_drain => $cb->() 236=item on_drain => $cb->($handle)
116 237
117This sets the callback that is called when the write buffer becomes empty 238This sets the callback that is called once when the write buffer becomes
118(or when the callback is set and the buffer is empty already). 239empty (and immediately when the handle object is created).
119 240
120To append to the write buffer, use the C<< ->push_write >> method. 241To append to the write buffer, use the C<< ->push_write >> method.
242
243This callback is useful when you don't want to put all of your write data
244into the queue at once, for example, when you want to write the contents
245of some file to the socket you might not want to read the whole file into
246memory and push it into the queue, but instead only read more data from
247the file when the write queue becomes empty.
248
249=item timeout => $fractional_seconds
250
251=item rtimeout => $fractional_seconds
252
253=item wtimeout => $fractional_seconds
254
255If non-zero, then these enables an "inactivity" timeout: whenever this
256many seconds pass without a successful read or write on the underlying
257file handle (or a call to C<timeout_reset>), the C<on_timeout> callback
258will be invoked (and if that one is missing, a non-fatal C<ETIMEDOUT>
259error will be raised).
260
261There are three variants of the timeouts that work independently of each
262other, for both read and write (triggered when nothing was read I<OR>
263written), just read (triggered when nothing was read), and just write:
264C<timeout>, C<rtimeout> and C<wtimeout>, with corresponding callbacks
265C<on_timeout>, C<on_rtimeout> and C<on_wtimeout>, and reset functions
266C<timeout_reset>, C<rtimeout_reset>, and C<wtimeout_reset>.
267
268Note that timeout processing is active even when you do not have any
269outstanding read or write requests: If you plan to keep the connection
270idle then you should disable the timeout temporarily or ignore the
271timeout in the corresponding C<on_timeout> callback, in which case
272AnyEvent::Handle will simply restart the timeout.
273
274Zero (the default) disables the corresponding timeout.
275
276=item on_timeout => $cb->($handle)
277
278=item on_rtimeout => $cb->($handle)
279
280=item on_wtimeout => $cb->($handle)
281
282Called whenever the inactivity timeout passes. If you return from this
283callback, then the timeout will be reset as if some activity had happened,
284so this condition is not fatal in any way.
121 285

123 287
124If defined, then a fatal error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<ENOSPC>) 288If defined, then a fatal error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<ENOSPC>)
125when the read buffer ever (strictly) exceeds this size. This is useful to 289when the read buffer ever (strictly) exceeds this size. This is useful to
126avoid denial-of-service attacks. 290avoid some forms of denial-of-service attacks.

129be configured to accept only so-and-so much data that it cannot act on 293be configured to accept only so-and-so much data that it cannot act on
130(for example, when expecting a line, an attacker could send an unlimited 294(for example, when expecting a line, an attacker could send an unlimited
131amount of data without a callback ever being called as long as the line 295amount of data without a callback ever being called as long as the line
132isn't finished). 296isn't finished).
133 297
298=item wbuf_max => <bytes>
299
300If defined, then a fatal error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<ENOSPC>)
301when the write buffer ever (strictly) exceeds this size. This is useful to
302avoid some forms of denial-of-service attacks.
303
304Although the units of this parameter is bytes, this is the I<raw> number
305of bytes not yet accepted by the kernel. This can make a difference when
306you e.g. use TLS, as TLS typically makes your write data larger (but it
307can also make it smaller due to compression).
308
309As an example of when this limit is useful, take a chat server that sends
310chat messages to a client. If the client does not read those in a timely
311manner then the send buffer in the server would grow unbounded.
312
313=item autocork => <boolean>
314
315When disabled (the default), C<push_write> will try to immediately
316write the data to the handle if possible. This avoids having to register
317a write watcher and wait for the next event loop iteration, but can
318be inefficient if you write multiple small chunks (on the wire, this
319disadvantage is usually avoided by your kernel's nagle algorithm, see
320C<no_delay>, but this option can save costly syscalls).
321
322When enabled, writes will always be queued till the next event loop
323iteration. This is efficient when you do many small writes per iteration,
324but less efficient when you do a single write only per iteration (or when
325the write buffer often is full). It also increases write latency.
326
327=item no_delay => <boolean>
328
329When doing small writes on sockets, your operating system kernel might
330wait a bit for more data before actually sending it out. This is called
331the Nagle algorithm, and usually it is beneficial.
332
333In some situations you want as low a delay as possible, which can be
334accomplishd by setting this option to a true value.
335
336The default is your operating system's default behaviour (most likely
337enabled). This option explicitly enables or disables it, if possible.
338
339=item keepalive => <boolean>
340
341Enables (default disable) the SO_KEEPALIVE option on the stream socket:
342normally, TCP connections have no time-out once established, so TCP
343connections, once established, can stay alive forever even when the other
344side has long gone. TCP keepalives are a cheap way to take down long-lived
345TCP connections when the other side becomes unreachable. While the default
346is OS-dependent, TCP keepalives usually kick in after around two hours,
347and, if the other side doesn't reply, take down the TCP connection some 10
348to 15 minutes later.
349
350It is harmless to specify this option for file handles that do not support
351keepalives, and enabling it on connections that are potentially long-lived
352is usually a good idea.
353
354=item oobinline => <boolean>
355
356BSD majorly fucked up the implementation of TCP urgent data. The result
357is that almost no OS implements TCP according to the specs, and every OS
358implements it slightly differently.
359
360If you want to handle TCP urgent data, then setting this flag (the default
361is enabled) gives you the most portable way of getting urgent data, by
362putting it into the stream.
363
364Since BSD emulation of OOB data on top of TCP's urgent data can have
365security implications, AnyEvent::Handle sets this flag automatically
366unless explicitly specified. Note that setting this flag after
367establishing a connection I<may> be a bit too late (data loss could
368already have occured on BSD systems), but at least it will protect you
369from most attacks.
370
134=item read_size => <bytes> 371=item read_size => <bytes>
135 372
136The default read block size (the amount of bytes this module will try to read 373The initial read block size, the number of bytes this module will try
137on each [loop iteration). Default: C<4096>. 374to read during each loop iteration. Each handle object will consume
375at least this amount of memory for the read buffer as well, so when
376handling many connections watch out for memory requirements). See also
377C<max_read_size>. Default: C<2048>.
378
379=item max_read_size => <bytes>
380
381The maximum read buffer size used by the dynamic adjustment
382algorithm: Each time AnyEvent::Handle can read C<read_size> bytes in
383one go it will double C<read_size> up to the maximum given by this
384option. Default: C<131072> or C<read_size>, whichever is higher.
138 385
139=item low_water_mark => <bytes> 386=item low_water_mark => <bytes>
140 387
141Sets the amount of bytes (default: C<0>) that make up an "empty" write 388Sets the number of bytes (default: C<0>) that make up an "empty" write
142buffer: If the write reaches this size or gets even samller it is 389buffer: If the buffer reaches this size or gets even samller it is
143considered empty. 390considered empty.
144 391
392Sometimes it can be beneficial (for performance reasons) to add data to
393the write buffer before it is fully drained, but this is a rare case, as
394the operating system kernel usually buffers data as well, so the default
395is good in almost all cases.
396
397=item linger => <seconds>
398
399If this is non-zero (default: C<3600>), the destructor of the
400AnyEvent::Handle object will check whether there is still outstanding
401write data and will install a watcher that will write this data to the
402socket. No errors will be reported (this mostly matches how the operating
403system treats outstanding data at socket close time).
404
405This will not work for partial TLS data that could not be encoded
406yet. This data will be lost. Calling the C<stoptls> method in time might
407help.
408
409=item peername => $string
410
411A string used to identify the remote site - usually the DNS hostname
412(I<not> IDN!) used to create the connection, rarely the IP address.
413
414Apart from being useful in error messages, this string is also used in TLS
415peername verification (see C<verify_peername> in L<AnyEvent::TLS>). This
416verification will be skipped when C<peername> is not specified or is
417C<undef>.
418
145=item tls => "accept" | "connect" | Net::SSLeay::SSL object 419=item tls => "accept" | "connect" | Net::SSLeay::SSL object
146 420
147When this parameter is given, it enables TLS (SSL) mode, that means it 421When this parameter is given, it enables TLS (SSL) mode, that means
148will start making tls handshake and will transparently encrypt/decrypt 422AnyEvent will start a TLS handshake as soon as the connection has been
149data. 423established and will transparently encrypt/decrypt data afterwards.
424
425All TLS protocol errors will be signalled as C<EPROTO>, with an
426appropriate error message.
150 427
151TLS mode requires Net::SSLeay to be installed (it will be loaded 428TLS mode requires Net::SSLeay to be installed (it will be loaded
152automatically when you try to create a TLS handle). 429automatically when you try to create a TLS handle): this module doesn't
430have a dependency on that module, so if your module requires it, you have
431to add the dependency yourself. If Net::SSLeay cannot be loaded or is too
432old, you get an C<EPROTO> error.
153 433
154For the TLS server side, use C<accept>, and for the TLS client side of a 434Unlike TCP, TLS has a server and client side: for the TLS server side, use
155connection, use C<connect> mode. 435C<accept>, and for the TLS client side of a connection, use C<connect>
436mode.
156 437
157You can also provide your own TLS connection object, but you have 438You can also provide your own TLS connection object, but you have
158to make sure that you call either C<Net::SSLeay::set_connect_state> 439to make sure that you call either C<Net::SSLeay::set_connect_state>
159or C<Net::SSLeay::set_accept_state> on it before you pass it to 440or C<Net::SSLeay::set_accept_state> on it before you pass it to
160AnyEvent::Handle. 441AnyEvent::Handle. Also, this module will take ownership of this connection
442object.
161 443
444At some future point, AnyEvent::Handle might switch to another TLS
445implementation, then the option to use your own session object will go
446away.
447
448B<IMPORTANT:> since Net::SSLeay "objects" are really only integers,
449passing in the wrong integer will lead to certain crash. This most often
450happens when one uses a stylish C<< tls => 1 >> and is surprised about the
451segmentation fault.
452
162See the C<starttls> method if you need to start TLs negotiation later. 453Use the C<< ->starttls >> method if you need to start TLS negotiation later.
163 454
164=item tls_ctx => $ssl_ctx 455=item tls_ctx => $anyevent_tls
165 456
166Use the given Net::SSLeay::CTX object to create the new TLS connection 457Use the given C<AnyEvent::TLS> object to create the new TLS connection
167(unless a connection object was specified directly). If this parameter is 458(unless a connection object was specified directly). If this
168missing, then AnyEvent::Handle will use C<AnyEvent::Handle::TLS_CTX>. 459parameter is missing (or C<undef>), then AnyEvent::Handle will use
460C<AnyEvent::Handle::TLS_CTX>.
461
462Instead of an object, you can also specify a hash reference with C<< key
463=> value >> pairs. Those will be passed to L<AnyEvent::TLS> to create a
464new TLS context object.
465
466=item on_starttls => $cb->($handle, $success[, $error_message])
467
468This callback will be invoked when the TLS/SSL handshake has finished. If
469C<$success> is true, then the TLS handshake succeeded, otherwise it failed
470(C<on_stoptls> will not be called in this case).
471
472The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
473callback, even when the handshake was not successful.
474
475TLS handshake failures will not cause C<on_error> to be invoked when this
476callback is in effect, instead, the error message will be passed to C<on_starttls>.
477
478Without this callback, handshake failures lead to C<on_error> being
479called as usual.
480
481Note that you cannot just call C<starttls> again in this callback. If you
482need to do that, start an zero-second timer instead whose callback can
483then call C<< ->starttls >> again.
484
485=item on_stoptls => $cb->($handle)
486
487When a SSLv3/TLS shutdown/close notify/EOF is detected and this callback is
488set, then it will be invoked after freeing the TLS session. If it is not,
489then a TLS shutdown condition will be treated like a normal EOF condition
490on the handle.
491
492The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
493callback.
494
495This callback will only be called on TLS shutdowns, not when the
496underlying handle signals EOF.
497
498=item json => L<JSON>, L<JSON::PP> or L<JSON::XS> object
499
500This is the json coder object used by the C<json> read and write types.
501
502If you don't supply it, then AnyEvent::Handle will create and use a
503suitable one (on demand), which will write and expect UTF-8 encoded
504JSON texts (either using L<JSON::XS> or L<JSON>). The written texts are
505guaranteed not to contain any newline character.
506
507For security reasons, this encoder will likely I<not> handle numbers and
508strings, only arrays and objects/hashes. The reason is that originally
509JSON was self-delimited, but Dougles Crockford thought it was a splendid
510idea to redefine JSON incompatibly, so this is no longer true.
511
512For protocols that used back-to-back JSON texts, this might lead to
513run-ins, where two or more JSON texts will be interpreted as one JSON
514text.
515
516For this reason, if the default encoder uses L<JSON::XS>, it will default
517to not allowing anything but arrays and objects/hashes, at least for the
518forseeable future (it will change at some point). This might or might not
519be true for the L<JSON> module, so this might cause a security issue.
520
521If you depend on either behaviour, you should create your own json object
522and pass it in explicitly.
523
524=item cbor => L<CBOR::XS> object
525
526This is the cbor coder object used by the C<cbor> read and write types.
527
528If you don't supply it, then AnyEvent::Handle will create and use a
529suitable one (on demand), which will write CBOR without using extensions,
530if possible.
531
532Note that you are responsible to depend on the L<CBOR::XS> module if you
533want to use this functionality, as AnyEvent does not have a dependency on
534it itself.

370This function (not method) lets you add your own types to C<push_write>. 1055An octet string prefixed with an encoded length. The encoding C<$format>
1056uses the same format as a Perl C<pack> format, but must specify a single
1057integer only (only one of C<cCsSlLqQiInNvVjJw> is allowed, plus an
1058optional C<!>, C<< < >> or C<< > >> modifier).

1068=item json => $array_or_hashref
1069
1070Encodes the given hash or array reference into a JSON object. Unless you
1071provide your own JSON object, this means it will be encoded to JSON text
1072in UTF-8.
1073
1074The default encoder might or might not handle every type of JSON value -
1075it might be limited to arrays and objects for security reasons. See the
1076C<json> constructor attribute for more details.
1077
1078JSON objects (and arrays) are self-delimiting, so if you only use arrays
1079and hashes, you can write JSON at one end of a handle and read them at the
1080other end without using any additional framing.
1081
1082The JSON text generated by the default encoder is guaranteed not to
1083contain any newlines: While this module doesn't need delimiters after or
1084between JSON texts to be able to read them, many other languages depend on
1085them.
1086
1087A simple RPC protocol that interoperates easily with other languages is
1088to send JSON arrays (or objects, although arrays are usually the better
1089choice as they mimic how function argument passing works) and a newline
1090after each JSON text:
1091
1092 $handle->push_write (json => ["method", "arg1", "arg2"]); # whatever
1093 $handle->push_write ("\012");
1094
1095An AnyEvent::Handle receiver would simply use the C<json> read type and
1096rely on the fact that the newline will be skipped as leading whitespace:
1097
1098 $handle->push_read (json => sub { my $array = $_[1]; ... });
1099
1100Other languages could read single lines terminated by a newline and pass
1101this line into their JSON decoder of choice.
1102
1103=item cbor => $perl_scalar
1104
1105Encodes the given scalar into a CBOR value. Unless you provide your own
1106L<CBOR::XS> object, this means it will be encoded to a CBOR string not
1107using any extensions, if possible.
1108
1109CBOR values are self-delimiting, so you can write CBOR at one end of
1110a handle and read them at the other end without using any additional
1111framing.
1112
1113A simple nd very very fast RPC protocol that interoperates with
1114other languages is to send CBOR and receive CBOR values (arrays are
1115recommended):
1116
1117 $handle->push_write (cbor => ["method", "arg1", "arg2"]); # whatever
1118

1166=item $handle->push_shutdown
1167
1168Sometimes you know you want to close the socket after writing your data
1169before it was actually written. One way to do that is to replace your
1170C<on_drain> handler by a callback that shuts down the socket (and set
1171C<low_water_mark> to C<0>). This method is a shorthand for just that, and
1172replaces the C<on_drain> callback with:
1173
1174 sub { shutdown $_[0]{fh}, 1 }
1175
1176This simply shuts down the write side and signals an EOF condition to the
1177the peer.
1178
1179You can rely on the normal read queue and C<on_eof> handling
1180afterwards. This is the cleanest way to close a connection.
1181
1182This method may invoke callbacks (and therefore the handle might be
1183destroyed after it returns).
1184

1186
1187sub push_shutdown {
1188 my ($self) = @_;

1194=item custom write types - Package::anyevent_write_type $handle, @args
1195
1196Instead of one of the predefined types, you can also specify the name of
1197a package. AnyEvent will try to load the package and then expects to find
1198a function named C<anyevent_write_type> inside. If it isn't found, it
1199progressively tries to load the parent package until it either finds the
1200function (good) or runs out of packages (bad).

1572=item regex => $accept[, $reject[, $skip], $cb->($handle, $data)
1573
1574Makes a regex match against the regex object C<$accept> and returns
1575everything up to and including the match. All the usual regex variables
1576($1, %+ etc.) from the regex match are available in the callback.
1577
1578Example: read a single line terminated by '\n'.
1579
1580 $handle->push_read (regex => qr<\n>, sub { ... });
1581
1582If C<$reject> is given and not undef, then it determines when the data is
1583to be rejected: it is matched against the data when the C<$accept> regex
1584does not match and generates an C<EBADMSG> error when it matches. This is
1585useful to quickly reject wrong data (to avoid waiting for a timeout or a
1586receive buffer overflow).
1587
1588Example: expect a single decimal number followed by whitespace, reject
1589anything else (not the use of an anchor).
1590
1591 $handle->push_read (regex => qr<^[0-9]+\s>, qr<[^0-9]>, sub { ... });
1592
1593If C<$skip> is given and not C<undef>, then it will be matched against
1594the receive buffer when neither C<$accept> nor C<$reject> match,
1595and everything preceding and including the match will be accepted
1596unconditionally. This is useful to skip large amounts of data that you
1597know cannot be matched, so that the C<$accept> or C<$reject> regex do not
1598have to start matching from the beginning. This is purely an optimisation
1599and is usually worth it only when you expect more than a few kilobytes.
1600
1601Example: expect a http header, which ends at C<\015\012\015\012>. Since we
1602expect the header to be very large (it isn't in practice, but...), we use
1603a skip regex to skip initial portions. The skip regex is tricky in that
1604it only accepts something not ending in either \015 or \012, as these are
1605required for the accept regex.

1869Checks the input stream for a valid SSL or TLS handshake TLSPaintext
1870record without consuming anything. Only SSL version 3 or higher
1871is handled, up to the fictituous protocol 4.x (but both SSL3+ and
1872SSL2-compatible framing is supported).
1873
1874If it detects that the input data is likely TLS, it calls the callback
1875with a true value for C<$detect> and the (on-wire) TLS version as second
1876and third argument (C<$major> is C<3>, and C<$minor> is 0..3 for SSL
18773.0, TLS 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2, respectively). If it detects the input to
1878be definitely not TLS, it calls the callback with a false value for
1879C<$detect>.
1880
1881The callback could use this information to decide whether or not to start
1882TLS negotiation.
1883
1884In all cases the data read so far is passed to the following read
1885handlers.
1886
1887Usually you want to use the C<tls_autostart> read type instead.
1888
1889If you want to design a protocol that works in the presence of TLS
1890dtection, make sure that any non-TLS data doesn't start with the octet 22
1891(ASCII SYN, 16 hex) or 128-255 (i.e. highest bit set). The checks this
1892read type does are a bit more strict, but might losen in the future to
1893accomodate protocol changes.
1894
1895This read type does not rely on L<AnyEvent::TLS> (and thus, not on
1896L<Net::SSLeay>).

1904been configured to accept, as servers do not normally send a handshake on

737This function (not method) lets you add your own types to C<push_read>. 1957Instead of one of the predefined types, you can also specify the name
1958of a package. AnyEvent will try to load the package and then expects to
1959find a function named C<anyevent_read_type> inside. If it isn't found, it
1960progressively tries to load the parent package until it either finds the
1961function (good) or runs out of packages (bad).

739Whenever the given C<type> is used, C<push_read> will invoke the code 1963Whenever this type is used, C<push_read> will invoke the function with the

1987Note that AnyEvent::Handle will automatically C<start_read> for you when
1988you change the C<on_read> callback or push/unshift a read callback, and it
1989will automatically C<stop_read> for you when neither C<on_read> is set nor
1990there are any read requests in the queue.
1991
1992In older versions of this module (<= 5.3), these methods had no effect,
1993as TLS does not support half-duplex connections. In current versions they
1994work as expected, as this behaviour is required to avoid certain resource
1995attacks, where the program would be forced to read (and buffer) arbitrary
1996amounts of data before being able to send some data. The drawback is that
1997some readings of the the SSL/TLS specifications basically require this
1998attack to be working, as SSL/TLS implementations might stall sending data
1999during a rehandshake.
2000
2001As a guideline, during the initial handshake, you should not stop reading,
2002and as a client, it might cause problems, depending on your application.

2320=item $handle->destroy
2321
2322Shuts down the handle object as much as possible - this call ensures that
2323no further callbacks will be invoked and as many resources as possible
2324will be freed. Any method you will call on the handle object after
2325destroying it in this way will be silently ignored (and it will return the
2326empty list).
2327
2328Normally, you can just "forget" any references to an AnyEvent::Handle
2329object and it will simply shut down. This works in fatal error and EOF
2330callbacks, as well as code outside. It does I<NOT> work in a read or write
2331callback, so when you want to destroy the AnyEvent::Handle object from
2332within such an callback. You I<MUST> call C<< ->destroy >> explicitly in
2333that case.
2334
2335Destroying the handle object in this way has the advantage that callbacks
2336will be removed as well, so if those are the only reference holders (as
2337is common), then one doesn't need to do anything special to break any
2338reference cycles.
2339
2340The handle might still linger in the background and write out remaining
2341data, as specified by the C<linger> option, however.

2358
2359Returns false as long as the handle hasn't been destroyed by a call to C<<
2360->destroy >>, true otherwise.
2361
2362Can be useful to decide whether the handle is still valid after some
2363callback possibly destroyed the handle. For example, C<< ->push_write >>,
2364C<< ->starttls >> and other methods can call user callbacks, which in turn
2365can destroy the handle, so work can be avoided by checking sometimes:
2366
2367 $hdl->starttls ("accept");
2368 return if $hdl->destroyed;
2369 $hdl->push_write (...
2370
2371Note that the call to C<push_write> will silently be ignored if the handle
2372has been destroyed, so often you can just ignore the possibility of the
2373handle being destroyed.

2402=head1 NONFREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
2403
2404=over 4
2405
2406=item I C<undef> the AnyEvent::Handle reference inside my callback and
2407still get further invocations!
2408
2409That's because AnyEvent::Handle keeps a reference to itself when handling
2410read or write callbacks.
2411
2412It is only safe to "forget" the reference inside EOF or error callbacks,
2413from within all other callbacks, you need to explicitly call the C<<
2414->destroy >> method.
2415
2416=item Why is my C<on_eof> callback never called?
2417
2418Probably because your C<on_error> callback is being called instead: When
2419you have outstanding requests in your read queue, then an EOF is
2420considered an error as you clearly expected some data.
2421
2422To avoid this, make sure you have an empty read queue whenever your handle
2423is supposed to be "idle" (i.e. connection closes are O.K.). You can set
2424an C<on_read> handler that simply pushes the first read requests in the
2425queue.
2426
2427See also the next question, which explains this in a bit more detail.
2428
2429=item How can I serve requests in a loop?
2430
2431Most protocols consist of some setup phase (authentication for example)
2432followed by a request handling phase, where the server waits for requests
2433and handles them, in a loop.
2434
2435There are two important variants: The first (traditional, better) variant
2436handles requests until the server gets some QUIT command, causing it to
2437close the connection first (highly desirable for a busy TCP server). A
2438client dropping the connection is an error, which means this variant can
2439detect an unexpected detection close.
2440
2441To handle this case, always make sure you have a non-empty read queue, by
2442pushing the "read request start" handler on it:
2443
2444 # we assume a request starts with a single line
2445 my @start_request; @start_request = (line => sub {
2446 my ($hdl, $line) = @_;
2447
2448 ... handle request
2449
2450 # push next request read, possibly from a nested callback
2451 $hdl->push_read (@start_request);
2452 });
2453
2454 # auth done, now go into request handling loop
2455 # now push the first @start_request
2456 $hdl->push_read (@start_request);
2457
2458By always having an outstanding C<push_read>, the handle always expects
2459some data and raises the C<EPIPE> error when the connction is dropped
2460unexpectedly.
2461
2462The second variant is a protocol where the client can drop the connection
2463at any time. For TCP, this means that the server machine may run out of
2464sockets easier, and in general, it means you cannot distinguish a protocl
2465failure/client crash from a normal connection close. Nevertheless, these
2466kinds of protocols are common (and sometimes even the best solution to the
2467problem).
2468
2469Having an outstanding read request at all times is possible if you ignore
2470C<EPIPE> errors, but this doesn't help with when the client drops the
2471connection during a request, which would still be an error.
2472
2473A better solution is to push the initial request read in an C<on_read>
2474callback. This avoids an error, as when the server doesn't expect data
2475(i.e. is idly waiting for the next request, an EOF will not raise an
2476error, but simply result in an C<on_eof> callback. It is also a bit slower
2477and simpler:
2478
2479 # auth done, now go into request handling loop
2480 $hdl->on_read (sub {
2481 my ($hdl) = @_;
2482
2483 # called each time we receive data but the read queue is empty
2484 # simply start read the request
2485
2486 $hdl->push_read (line => sub {
2487 my ($hdl, $line) = @_;
2488
2489 ... handle request
2490
2491 # do nothing special when the request has been handled, just
2492 # let the request queue go empty.
2493 });
2494 });
2495
2496=item I get different callback invocations in TLS mode/Why can't I pause
2497reading?
2498
2499Unlike, say, TCP, TLS connections do not consist of two independent
2500communication channels, one for each direction. Or put differently, the
2501read and write directions are not independent of each other: you cannot
2502write data unless you are also prepared to read, and vice versa.
2503
2504This means that, in TLS mode, you might get C<on_error> or C<on_eof>
2505callback invocations when you are not expecting any read data - the reason
2506is that AnyEvent::Handle always reads in TLS mode.
2507
2508During the connection, you have to make sure that you always have a
2509non-empty read-queue, or an C<on_read> watcher. At the end of the
2510connection (or when you no longer want to use it) you can call the
2511C<destroy> method.
2512
2513=item How do I read data until the other side closes the connection?
2514
2515If you just want to read your data into a perl scalar, the easiest way
2516to achieve this is by setting an C<on_read> callback that does nothing,
2517clearing the C<on_eof> callback and in the C<on_error> callback, the data
2518will be in C<$_[0]{rbuf}>:
2519
2520 $handle->on_read (sub { });
2521 $handle->on_eof (undef);
2522 $handle->on_error (sub {
2523 my $data = delete $_[0]{rbuf};
2524 });
2525
2526Note that this example removes the C<rbuf> member from the handle object,
2527which is not normally allowed by the API. It is expressly permitted in
2528this case only, as the handle object needs to be destroyed afterwards.
2529
2530The reason to use C<on_error> is that TCP connections, due to latencies
2531and packets loss, might get closed quite violently with an error, when in
2532fact all data has been received.
2533
2534It is usually better to use acknowledgements when transferring data,
2535to make sure the other side hasn't just died and you got the data
2536intact. This is also one reason why so many internet protocols have an
2537explicit QUIT command.
2538
2539=item I don't want to destroy the handle too early - how do I wait until
2540all data has been written?
2541
2542After writing your last bits of data, set the C<on_drain> callback
2543and destroy the handle in there - with the default setting of
2544C<low_water_mark> this will be called precisely when all data has been
2545written to the socket:
2546
2547 $handle->push_write (...);
2548 $handle->on_drain (sub {
2549 AE::log debug => "All data submitted to the kernel.";
2550 undef $handle;
2551 });
2552
2553If you just want to queue some data and then signal EOF to the other side,
2554consider using C<< ->push_shutdown >> instead.
2555
2556=item I want to contact a TLS/SSL server, I don't care about security.
2557
2558If your TLS server is a pure TLS server (e.g. HTTPS) that only speaks TLS,
2559connect to it and then create the AnyEvent::Handle with the C<tls>
2560parameter:
2561
2562 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
2563 my ($fh) = @_;
2564
2565 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2566 fh => $fh,
2567 tls => "connect",
2568 on_error => sub { ... };
2569
2570 $handle->push_write (...);
2571 };
2572
2573=item I want to contact a TLS/SSL server, I do care about security.
2574
2575Then you should additionally enable certificate verification, including
2576peername verification, if the protocol you use supports it (see
2577L<AnyEvent::TLS>, C<verify_peername>).
2578
2579E.g. for HTTPS:
2580
2581 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
2582 my ($fh) = @_;
2583
2584 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2585 fh => $fh,
2586 peername => $host,
2587 tls => "connect",
2588 tls_ctx => { verify => 1, verify_peername => "https" },
2589 ...
2590
2591Note that you must specify the hostname you connected to (or whatever
2592"peername" the protocol needs) as the C<peername> argument, otherwise no
2593peername verification will be done.
2594
2595The above will use the system-dependent default set of trusted CA
2596certificates. If you want to check against a specific CA, add the
2597C<ca_file> (or C<ca_cert>) arguments to C<tls_ctx>:
2598
2599 tls_ctx => {
2600 verify => 1,
2601 verify_peername => "https",
2602 ca_file => "my-ca-cert.pem",
2603 },
2604
2605=item I want to create a TLS/SSL server, how do I do that?
2606
2607Well, you first need to get a server certificate and key. You have
2608three options: a) ask a CA (buy one, use cacert.org etc.) b) create a
2609self-signed certificate (cheap. check the search engine of your choice,
2610there are many tutorials on the net) or c) make your own CA (tinyca2 is a
2611nice program for that purpose).
2612
2613Then create a file with your private key (in PEM format, see
2614L<AnyEvent::TLS>), followed by the certificate (also in PEM format). The
2615file should then look like this:
2616
2617 -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2618 ...header data
2619 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2620 -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2621
2622 -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
2623 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2624 -----END CERTIFICATE-----
2625
2626The important bits are the "PRIVATE KEY" and "CERTIFICATE" parts. Then
2627specify this file as C<cert_file>:
2628
2629 tcp_server undef, $port, sub {
2630 my ($fh) = @_;
2631
2632 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2633 fh => $fh,
2634 tls => "accept",
2635 tls_ctx => { cert_file => "my-server-keycert.pem" },
2636 ...
2637
2638When you have intermediate CA certificates that your clients might not
2639know about, just append them to the C<cert_file>.

2643=head1 SUBCLASSING AnyEvent::Handle
2644
2645In many cases, you might want to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
2646
2647To make this easier, a given version of AnyEvent::Handle uses these
2648conventions:
2649
2650=over 4
2651
2652=item * all constructor arguments become object members.
2653
2654At least initially, when you pass a C<tls>-argument to the constructor it
2655will end up in C<< $handle->{tls} >>. Those members might be changed or
2656mutated later on (for example C<tls> will hold the TLS connection object).
2657
2658=item * other object member names are prefixed with an C<_>.
2659
2660All object members not explicitly documented (internal use) are prefixed
2661with an underscore character, so the remaining non-C<_>-namespace is free
2662for use for subclasses.
2663
2664=item * all members not documented here and not prefixed with an underscore
2665are free to use in subclasses.
2666
2667Of course, new versions of AnyEvent::Handle may introduce more "public"
2668member variables, but that's just life. At least it is documented.
