80Set the callback to be called on EOF. 84Set the callback to be called when an end-of-file condition is detected,
85i.e. in the case of a socket, when the other side has closed the
86connection cleanly.
81 87
88For sockets, this just means that the other side has stopped sending data,
89you can still try to write data, and, in fact, one can return from the EOF
90callback and continue writing data, as only the read part has been shut
91down.
92
82While not mandatory, it is highly recommended to set an eof callback, 93While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set an EOF callback,
83otherwise you might end up with a closed socket while you are still 94otherwise you might end up with a closed socket while you are still

85 96
86=item on_error => $cb->($self) 97If an EOF condition has been detected but no C<on_eof> callback has been
98set, then a fatal error will be raised with C<$!> set to <0>.
87 99
100=item on_error => $cb->($handle, $fatal, $message)
101
88This is the fatal error callback, that is called when, well, a fatal error 102This is the error callback, which is called when, well, some error
89occurs, such as not being able to resolve the hostname, failure to connect 103occured, such as not being able to resolve the hostname, failure to

91 105
92The object will not be in a usable state when this callback has been 106Some errors are fatal (which is indicated by C<$fatal> being true). On
93called. 107fatal errors the handle object will be shut down and will not be usable
108(but you are free to look at the current C<< ->rbuf >>). Examples of fatal
109errors are an EOF condition with active (but unsatisifable) read watchers
110(C<EPIPE>) or I/O errors.
111
112AnyEvent::Handle tries to find an appropriate error code for you to check
113against, but in some cases (TLS errors), this does not work well. It is
114recommended to always output the C<$message> argument in human-readable
115error messages (it's usually the same as C<"$!">).
116
117Non-fatal errors can be retried by simply returning, but it is recommended
118to simply ignore this parameter and instead abondon the handle object
119when this callback is invoked. Examples of non-fatal errors are timeouts
120C<ETIMEDOUT>) or badly-formatted data (C<EBADMSG>).
94 121
95On callback entrance, the value of C<$!> contains the operating system 122On callback entrance, the value of C<$!> contains the operating system
96error (or C<ENOSPC>, C<EPIPE> or C<EBADMSG>). 123error code (or C<ENOSPC>, C<EPIPE>, C<ETIMEDOUT>, C<EBADMSG> or
97 124C<EPROTO>).
98The callback should throw an exception. If it returns, then
99AnyEvent::Handle will C<croak> for you.
100 125
101While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set this callback, as 126While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set this callback, as
102you will not be notified of errors otherwise. The default simply calls 127you will not be notified of errors otherwise. The default simply calls

108and no read request is in the queue. 133and no read request is in the queue (unlike read queue callbacks, this
134callback will only be called when at least one octet of data is in the
135read buffer).
109 136
110To access (and remove data from) the read buffer, use the C<< ->rbuf >> 137To access (and remove data from) the read buffer, use the C<< ->rbuf >>
111method or access the C<$self->{rbuf}> member directly. 138method or access the C<< $handle->{rbuf} >> member directly. Note that you
139must not enlarge or modify the read buffer, you can only remove data at
140the beginning from it.
112 141
113When an EOF condition is detected then AnyEvent::Handle will first try to 142When an EOF condition is detected then AnyEvent::Handle will first try to
114feed all the remaining data to the queued callbacks and C<on_read> before 143feed all the remaining data to the queued callbacks and C<on_read> before
115calling the C<on_eof> callback. If no progress can be made, then a fatal 144calling the C<on_eof> callback. If no progress can be made, then a fatal
116error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<EPIPE>). 145error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<EPIPE>).

120This sets the callback that is called when the write buffer becomes empty 149This sets the callback that is called when the write buffer becomes empty
121(or when the callback is set and the buffer is empty already). 150(or when the callback is set and the buffer is empty already).
122 151
123To append to the write buffer, use the C<< ->push_write >> method. 152To append to the write buffer, use the C<< ->push_write >> method.
124 153
154This callback is useful when you don't want to put all of your write data
155into the queue at once, for example, when you want to write the contents
156of some file to the socket you might not want to read the whole file into
157memory and push it into the queue, but instead only read more data from
158the file when the write queue becomes empty.
159
160=item timeout => $fractional_seconds
161
162If non-zero, then this enables an "inactivity" timeout: whenever this many
163seconds pass without a successful read or write on the underlying file
164handle, the C<on_timeout> callback will be invoked (and if that one is
165missing, a non-fatal C<ETIMEDOUT> error will be raised).
166
167Note that timeout processing is also active when you currently do not have
168any outstanding read or write requests: If you plan to keep the connection
169idle then you should disable the timout temporarily or ignore the timeout
170in the C<on_timeout> callback, in which case AnyEvent::Handle will simply
171restart the timeout.
172
173Zero (the default) disables this timeout.
174
175=item on_timeout => $cb->($handle)
176
177Called whenever the inactivity timeout passes. If you return from this
178callback, then the timeout will be reset as if some activity had happened,
179so this condition is not fatal in any way.

129avoid denial-of-service attacks. 185avoid some forms of denial-of-service attacks.

135isn't finished). 191isn't finished).
136 192
193=item autocork => <boolean>
194
195When disabled (the default), then C<push_write> will try to immediately
196write the data to the handle, if possible. This avoids having to register
197a write watcher and wait for the next event loop iteration, but can
198be inefficient if you write multiple small chunks (on the wire, this
199disadvantage is usually avoided by your kernel's nagle algorithm, see
200C<no_delay>, but this option can save costly syscalls).
201
202When enabled, then writes will always be queued till the next event loop
203iteration. This is efficient when you do many small writes per iteration,
204but less efficient when you do a single write only per iteration (or when
205the write buffer often is full). It also increases write latency.
206
207=item no_delay => <boolean>
208
209When doing small writes on sockets, your operating system kernel might
210wait a bit for more data before actually sending it out. This is called
211the Nagle algorithm, and usually it is beneficial.
212
213In some situations you want as low a delay as possible, which can be
214accomplishd by setting this option to a true value.
215
216The default is your opertaing system's default behaviour (most likely
217enabled), this option explicitly enables or disables it, if possible.
218
137=item read_size => <bytes> 219=item read_size => <bytes>
138 220
139The default read block size (the amount of bytes this module will try to read 221The default read block size (the amount of bytes this module will
140on each [loop iteration). Default: C<4096>. 222try to read during each loop iteration, which affects memory
223requirements). Default: C<8192>.

146considered empty. 229considered empty.
147 230
231Sometimes it can be beneficial (for performance reasons) to add data to
232the write buffer before it is fully drained, but this is a rare case, as
233the operating system kernel usually buffers data as well, so the default
234is good in almost all cases.
235
236=item linger => <seconds>
237
238If non-zero (default: C<3600>), then the destructor of the
239AnyEvent::Handle object will check whether there is still outstanding
240write data and will install a watcher that will write this data to the
241socket. No errors will be reported (this mostly matches how the operating
242system treats outstanding data at socket close time).
243
244This will not work for partial TLS data that could not be encoded
245yet. This data will be lost. Calling the C<stoptls> method in time might
246help.
247
248=item peername => $string
249
250A string used to identify the remote site - usually the DNS hostname
251(I<not> IDN!) used to create the connection, rarely the IP address.
252
253Apart from being useful in error messages, this string is also used in TLS
254peername verification (see C<verify_peername> in L<AnyEvent::TLS>).
255
148=item tls => "accept" | "connect" | Net::SSLeay::SSL object 256=item tls => "accept" | "connect" | Net::SSLeay::SSL object

151will start making tls handshake and will transparently encrypt/decrypt 259AnyEvent will start a TLS handshake as soon as the conenction has been
152data. 260established and will transparently encrypt/decrypt data afterwards.
261
262All TLS protocol errors will be signalled as C<EPROTO>, with an
263appropriate error message.
153 264
154TLS mode requires Net::SSLeay to be installed (it will be loaded 265TLS mode requires Net::SSLeay to be installed (it will be loaded
155automatically when you try to create a TLS handle). 266automatically when you try to create a TLS handle): this module doesn't
267have a dependency on that module, so if your module requires it, you have
268to add the dependency yourself.
156 269
157For the TLS server side, use C<accept>, and for the TLS client side of a 270Unlike TCP, TLS has a server and client side: for the TLS server side, use
158connection, use C<connect> mode. 271C<accept>, and for the TLS client side of a connection, use C<connect>
272mode.
159 273
160You can also provide your own TLS connection object, but you have 274You can also provide your own TLS connection object, but you have
161to make sure that you call either C<Net::SSLeay::set_connect_state> 275to make sure that you call either C<Net::SSLeay::set_connect_state>
162or C<Net::SSLeay::set_accept_state> on it before you pass it to 276or C<Net::SSLeay::set_accept_state> on it before you pass it to
163AnyEvent::Handle. 277AnyEvent::Handle. Also, this module will take ownership of this connection
278object.
164 279
280At some future point, AnyEvent::Handle might switch to another TLS
281implementation, then the option to use your own session object will go
282away.
283
284B<IMPORTANT:> since Net::SSLeay "objects" are really only integers,
285passing in the wrong integer will lead to certain crash. This most often
286happens when one uses a stylish C<< tls => 1 >> and is surprised about the
287segmentation fault.
288
165See the C<starttls> method if you need to start TLs negotiation later. 289See the C<< ->starttls >> method for when need to start TLS negotiation later.
166 290
167=item tls_ctx => $ssl_ctx 291=item tls_ctx => $anyevent_tls

170(unless a connection object was specified directly). If this parameter is 294(unless a connection object was specified directly). If this parameter is
171missing, then AnyEvent::Handle will use C<AnyEvent::Handle::TLS_CTX>. 295missing, then AnyEvent::Handle will use C<AnyEvent::Handle::TLS_CTX>.
172 296
173=item filter_r => $cb 297Instead of an object, you can also specify a hash reference with C<< key
298=> value >> pairs. Those will be passed to L<AnyEvent::TLS> to create a
299new TLS context object.
174 300
175=item filter_w => $cb 301=item on_starttls => $cb->($handle, $success)
176 302
177These exist, but are undocumented at this time. 303This callback will be invoked when the TLS/SSL handshake has finished. If
304C<$success> is true, then the TLS handshake succeeded, otherwise it failed
305(C<on_stoptls> will not be called in this case).
306
307The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
308callback, even when the handshake was not successful.
309
310=item on_stoptls => $cb->($handle)
311
312When a SSLv3/TLS shutdown/close notify/EOF is detected and this callback is
313set, then it will be invoked after freeing the TLS session. If it is not,
314then a TLS shutdown condition will be treated like a normal EOF condition
315on the handle.
316
317The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
318callback.
319
320This callback will only be called on TLS shutdowns, not when the
321underlying handle signals EOF.
322
323=item json => JSON or JSON::XS object
324
325This is the json coder object used by the C<json> read and write types.
326
327If you don't supply it, then AnyEvent::Handle will create and use a
328suitable one (on demand), which will write and expect UTF-8 encoded JSON
329texts.
330
331Note that you are responsible to depend on the JSON module if you want to
332use this functionality, as AnyEvent does not have a dependency itself.

668=item json => $array_or_hashref
669
670Encodes the given hash or array reference into a JSON object. Unless you
671provide your own JSON object, this means it will be encoded to JSON text
672in UTF-8.
673
674JSON objects (and arrays) are self-delimiting, so you can write JSON at
675one end of a handle and read them at the other end without using any
676additional framing.
677
678The generated JSON text is guaranteed not to contain any newlines: While
679this module doesn't need delimiters after or between JSON texts to be
680able to read them, many other languages depend on that.
681
682A simple RPC protocol that interoperates easily with others is to send
683JSON arrays (or objects, although arrays are usually the better choice as
684they mimic how function argument passing works) and a newline after each
685JSON text:
686
687 $handle->push_write (json => ["method", "arg1", "arg2"]); # whatever
688 $handle->push_write ("\012");
689
690An AnyEvent::Handle receiver would simply use the C<json> read type and
691rely on the fact that the newline will be skipped as leading whitespace:
692
693 $handle->push_read (json => sub { my $array = $_[1]; ... });
694
695Other languages could read single lines terminated by a newline and pass
696this line into their JSON decoder of choice.

726=item $handle->push_shutdown
727
728Sometimes you know you want to close the socket after writing your data
729before it was actually written. One way to do that is to replace your
730C<on_drain> handler by a callback that shuts down the socket (and set
731C<low_water_mark> to C<0>). This method is a shorthand for just that, and
732replaces the C<on_drain> callback with:
733
734 sub { shutdown $_[0]{fh}, 1 } # for push_shutdown
735
736This simply shuts down the write side and signals an EOF condition to the
737the peer.
738
739You can rely on the normal read queue and C<on_eof> handling
740afterwards. This is the cleanest way to close a connection.

1246
1247Reads a JSON object or array, decodes it and passes it to the
1248callback. When a parse error occurs, an C<EBADMSG> error will be raised.
1249
1250If a C<json> object was passed to the constructor, then that will be used
1251for the final decode, otherwise it will create a JSON coder expecting UTF-8.
1252
1253This read type uses the incremental parser available with JSON version
12542.09 (and JSON::XS version 2.2) and above. You have to provide a
1255dependency on your own: this module will load the JSON module, but
1256AnyEvent does not depend on it itself.
1257
1258Since JSON texts are fully self-delimiting, the C<json> read and write
1259types are an ideal simple RPC protocol: just exchange JSON datagrams. See
1260the C<json> write type description, above, for an actual example.

1647Shuts down the handle object as much as possible - this call ensures that
1648no further callbacks will be invoked and as many resources as possible
1649will be freed. You must not call any methods on the object afterwards.
1650
1651Normally, you can just "forget" any references to an AnyEvent::Handle
1652object and it will simply shut down. This works in fatal error and EOF
1653callbacks, as well as code outside. It does I<NOT> work in a read or write
1654callback, so when you want to destroy the AnyEvent::Handle object from
1655within such an callback. You I<MUST> call C<< ->destroy >> explicitly in
1656that case.
1657
1658The handle might still linger in the background and write out remaining
1659data, as specified by the C<linger> option, however.

1695
1696=item I C<undef> the AnyEvent::Handle reference inside my callback and
1697still get further invocations!
1698
1699That's because AnyEvent::Handle keeps a reference to itself when handling
1700read or write callbacks.
1701
1702It is only safe to "forget" the reference inside EOF or error callbacks,
1703from within all other callbacks, you need to explicitly call the C<<
1704->destroy >> method.
1705
1706=item I get different callback invocations in TLS mode/Why can't I pause
1707reading?
1708
1709Unlike, say, TCP, TLS connections do not consist of two independent
1710communication channels, one for each direction. Or put differently. The
1711read and write directions are not independent of each other: you cannot
1712write data unless you are also prepared to read, and vice versa.
1713
1714This can mean than, in TLS mode, you might get C<on_error> or C<on_eof>
1715callback invocations when you are not expecting any read data - the reason
1716is that AnyEvent::Handle always reads in TLS mode.
1717
1718During the connection, you have to make sure that you always have a
1719non-empty read-queue, or an C<on_read> watcher. At the end of the
1720connection (or when you no longer want to use it) you can call the
1721C<destroy> method.
1722
1723=item How do I read data until the other side closes the connection?
1724
1725If you just want to read your data into a perl scalar, the easiest way
1726to achieve this is by setting an C<on_read> callback that does nothing,
1727clearing the C<on_eof> callback and in the C<on_error> callback, the data
1728will be in C<$_[0]{rbuf}>:
1729
1730 $handle->on_read (sub { });
1731 $handle->on_eof (undef);
1732 $handle->on_error (sub {
1733 my $data = delete $_[0]{rbuf};
1734 undef $handle;
1735 });
1736
1737The reason to use C<on_error> is that TCP connections, due to latencies
1738and packets loss, might get closed quite violently with an error, when in
1739fact, all data has been received.
1740
1741It is usually better to use acknowledgements when transferring data,
1742to make sure the other side hasn't just died and you got the data
1743intact. This is also one reason why so many internet protocols have an
1744explicit QUIT command.
1745
1746=item I don't want to destroy the handle too early - how do I wait until
1747all data has been written?
1748
1749After writing your last bits of data, set the C<on_drain> callback
1750and destroy the handle in there - with the default setting of
1751C<low_water_mark> this will be called precisely when all data has been
1752written to the socket:
1753
1754 $handle->push_write (...);
1755 $handle->on_drain (sub {
1756 warn "all data submitted to the kernel\n";
1757 undef $handle;
