33=head1 DESCRIPTION
34
35This is a helper module to make it easier to do event-based I/O on
36stream-based filehandles (sockets, pipes, and other stream things).
37
38The L<AnyEvent::Intro> tutorial contains some well-documented
39AnyEvent::Handle examples.
40
41In the following, where the documentation refers to "bytes", it means
42characters. As sysread and syswrite are used for all I/O, their
43treatment of characters applies to this module as well.
44
45At the very minimum, you should specify C<fh> or C<connect>, and the
46C<on_error> callback.
47
48All callbacks will be invoked with the handle object as their first
49argument.

82=head1 METHODS
83
84=over 4
85
86=item $handle = B<new> AnyEvent::Handle fh => $filehandle, key => value...
87
88The constructor supports these arguments (all as C<< key => value >> pairs).
89
90=over 4
91
92=item fh => $filehandle [C<fh> or C<connect> MANDATORY]
93
94The filehandle this L<AnyEvent::Handle> object will operate on.
95NOTE: The filehandle will be set to non-blocking mode (using
96C<AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking>) by the constructor and needs to stay in
97that mode.
98
99=item connect => [$host, $service] [C<fh> or C<connect> MANDATORY]
100
101Try to connect to the specified host and service (port), using
102C<AnyEvent::Socket::tcp_connect>. The C<$host> additionally becomes the
103default C<peername>.
104
105You have to specify either this parameter, or C<fh>, above.
106
107It is possible to push requests on the read and write queues, and modify
108properties of the stream, even while AnyEvent::Handle is connecting.
109
110When this parameter is specified, then the C<on_prepare>,
111C<on_connect_error> and C<on_connect> callbacks will be called under the
112appropriate circumstances:
113
114=over 4
115
116=item on_prepare => $cb->($handle)
117
118This (rarely used) callback is called before a new connection is
119attempted, but after the file handle has been created (you can access that
120file handle via C<< $handle->{fh} >>). It could be used to prepare the
121file handle with parameters required for the actual connect (as opposed to
122settings that can be changed when the connection is already established).
123
124The return value of this callback should be the connect timeout value in
125seconds (or C<0>, or C<undef>, or the empty list, to indicate that the
126default timeout is to be used).
127
128=item on_connect => $cb->($handle, $host, $port, $retry->())
129
130This callback is called when a connection has been successfully established.
131
132The peer's numeric host and port (the socket peername) are passed as
133parameters, together with a retry callback. At the time it is called the
134read and write queues, EOF status, TLS status and similar properties of
135the handle will have been reset.
136
137It is not allowed to use the read or write queues while the handle object
138is connecting.
139
140If, for some reason, the handle is not acceptable, calling C<$retry> will
141continue with the next connection target (in case of multi-homed hosts or
142SRV records there can be multiple connection endpoints). The C<$retry>
143callback can be invoked after the connect callback returns, i.e. one can
144start a handshake and then decide to retry with the next host if the
145handshake fails.
146
147In most cases, you should ignore the C<$retry> parameter.
148
149=item on_connect_error => $cb->($handle, $message)
150
151This callback is called when the connection could not be
152established. C<$!> will contain the relevant error code, and C<$message> a
153message describing it (usually the same as C<"$!">).
154
155If this callback isn't specified, then C<on_error> will be called with a
156fatal error instead.
157
158=back
159
160=item on_error => $cb->($handle, $fatal, $message)
161
162This is the error callback, which is called when, well, some error
163occured, such as not being able to resolve the hostname, failure to
164connect, or a read error.
165
166Some errors are fatal (which is indicated by C<$fatal> being true). On
167fatal errors the handle object will be destroyed (by a call to C<< ->
168destroy >>) after invoking the error callback (which means you are free to
169examine the handle object). Examples of fatal errors are an EOF condition
170with active (but unsatisfiable) read watchers (C<EPIPE>) or I/O errors. In
171cases where the other side can close the connection at will, it is
172often easiest to not report C<EPIPE> errors in this callback.
173
174AnyEvent::Handle tries to find an appropriate error code for you to check
175against, but in some cases (TLS errors), this does not work well.
176
177If you report the error to the user, it is recommended to always output
178the C<$message> argument in human-readable error messages (you don't need
179to report C<"$!"> if you report C<$message>).
180
181If you want to react programmatically to the error, then looking at C<$!>
182and comparing it against some of the documented C<Errno> values is usually
183better than looking at the C<$message>.
184
185Non-fatal errors can be retried by returning, but it is recommended
186to simply ignore this parameter and instead abondon the handle object
187when this callback is invoked. Examples of non-fatal errors are timeouts
188C<ETIMEDOUT>) or badly-formatted data (C<EBADMSG>).
189
190On entry to the callback, the value of C<$!> contains the operating
191system error code (or C<ENOSPC>, C<EPIPE>, C<ETIMEDOUT>, C<EBADMSG> or
192C<EPROTO>).
193
194While not mandatory, it is I<highly> recommended to set this callback, as
195you will not be notified of errors otherwise. The default just calls
196C<croak>.
197
198=item on_read => $cb->($handle)
199
200This sets the default read callback, which is called when data arrives
201and no read request is in the queue (unlike read queue callbacks, this
202callback will only be called when at least one octet of data is in the
203read buffer).
204
205To access (and remove data from) the read buffer, use the C<< ->rbuf >>
206method or access the C<< $handle->{rbuf} >> member directly. Note that you
207must not enlarge or modify the read buffer, you can only remove data at
208the beginning from it.
209
210You can also call C<< ->push_read (...) >> or any other function that
211modifies the read queue. Or do both. Or ...
212
213When an EOF condition is detected, AnyEvent::Handle will first try to
214feed all the remaining data to the queued callbacks and C<on_read> before
215calling the C<on_eof> callback. If no progress can be made, then a fatal
216error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<EPIPE>).
217
218Note that, unlike requests in the read queue, an C<on_read> callback
219doesn't mean you I<require> some data: if there is an EOF and there
220are outstanding read requests then an error will be flagged. With an
221C<on_read> callback, the C<on_eof> callback will be invoked.
222
223=item on_eof => $cb->($handle)
224
225Set the callback to be called when an end-of-file condition is detected,
226i.e. in the case of a socket, when the other side has closed the
227connection cleanly, and there are no outstanding read requests in the
228queue (if there are read requests, then an EOF counts as an unexpected
229connection close and will be flagged as an error).
230
231For sockets, this just means that the other side has stopped sending data,
232you can still try to write data, and, in fact, one can return from the EOF
233callback and continue writing data, as only the read part has been shut
234down.
235
236If an EOF condition has been detected but no C<on_eof> callback has been
237set, then a fatal error will be raised with C<$!> set to <0>.
238
239=item on_drain => $cb->($handle)
240
241This sets the callback that is called once when the write buffer becomes
242empty (and immediately when the handle object is created).
243
244To append to the write buffer, use the C<< ->push_write >> method.
245
246This callback is useful when you don't want to put all of your write data
247into the queue at once, for example, when you want to write the contents
248of some file to the socket you might not want to read the whole file into
249memory and push it into the queue, but instead only read more data from
250the file when the write queue becomes empty.
251
252=item timeout => $fractional_seconds
253
254=item rtimeout => $fractional_seconds
255
256=item wtimeout => $fractional_seconds
257
258If non-zero, then these enables an "inactivity" timeout: whenever this
259many seconds pass without a successful read or write on the underlying
260file handle (or a call to C<timeout_reset>), the C<on_timeout> callback
261will be invoked (and if that one is missing, a non-fatal C<ETIMEDOUT>
262error will be raised).
263
264There are three variants of the timeouts that work independently of each
265other, for both read and write (triggered when nothing was read I<OR>
266written), just read (triggered when nothing was read), and just write:
267C<timeout>, C<rtimeout> and C<wtimeout>, with corresponding callbacks
268C<on_timeout>, C<on_rtimeout> and C<on_wtimeout>, and reset functions
269C<timeout_reset>, C<rtimeout_reset>, and C<wtimeout_reset>.
270
271Note that timeout processing is active even when you do not have any
272outstanding read or write requests: If you plan to keep the connection
273idle then you should disable the timeout temporarily or ignore the
274timeout in the corresponding C<on_timeout> callback, in which case
275AnyEvent::Handle will simply restart the timeout.
276
277Zero (the default) disables the corresponding timeout.
278
279=item on_timeout => $cb->($handle)
280
281=item on_rtimeout => $cb->($handle)
282
283=item on_wtimeout => $cb->($handle)
284
285Called whenever the inactivity timeout passes. If you return from this
286callback, then the timeout will be reset as if some activity had happened,
287so this condition is not fatal in any way.
288
289=item rbuf_max => <bytes>
290
291If defined, then a fatal error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<ENOSPC>)
292when the read buffer ever (strictly) exceeds this size. This is useful to
293avoid some forms of denial-of-service attacks.
294
295For example, a server accepting connections from untrusted sources should
296be configured to accept only so-and-so much data that it cannot act on
297(for example, when expecting a line, an attacker could send an unlimited
298amount of data without a callback ever being called as long as the line
299isn't finished).
300
301=item wbuf_max => <bytes>
302
303If defined, then a fatal error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<ENOSPC>)
304when the write buffer ever (strictly) exceeds this size. This is useful to
305avoid some forms of denial-of-service attacks.
306
307Although the units of this parameter is bytes, this is the I<raw> number
308of bytes not yet accepted by the kernel. This can make a difference when
309you e.g. use TLS, as TLS typically makes your write data larger (but it
310can also make it smaller due to compression).
311
312As an example of when this limit is useful, take a chat server that sends
313chat messages to a client. If the client does not read those in a timely
314manner then the send buffer in the server would grow unbounded.
315
316=item autocork => <boolean>
317
318When disabled (the default), C<push_write> will try to immediately
319write the data to the handle if possible. This avoids having to register
320a write watcher and wait for the next event loop iteration, but can
321be inefficient if you write multiple small chunks (on the wire, this
322disadvantage is usually avoided by your kernel's nagle algorithm, see
323C<no_delay>, but this option can save costly syscalls).
324
325When enabled, writes will always be queued till the next event loop
326iteration. This is efficient when you do many small writes per iteration,
327but less efficient when you do a single write only per iteration (or when
328the write buffer often is full). It also increases write latency.
329
330=item no_delay => <boolean>
331
332When doing small writes on sockets, your operating system kernel might
333wait a bit for more data before actually sending it out. This is called
334the Nagle algorithm, and usually it is beneficial.
335
336In some situations you want as low a delay as possible, which can be
337accomplishd by setting this option to a true value.
338
339The default is your operating system's default behaviour (most likely
340enabled). This option explicitly enables or disables it, if possible.
341
342=item keepalive => <boolean>
343
344Enables (default disable) the SO_KEEPALIVE option on the stream socket:
345normally, TCP connections have no time-out once established, so TCP
346connections, once established, can stay alive forever even when the other
347side has long gone. TCP keepalives are a cheap way to take down long-lived
348TCP connections when the other side becomes unreachable. While the default
349is OS-dependent, TCP keepalives usually kick in after around two hours,
350and, if the other side doesn't reply, take down the TCP connection some 10
351to 15 minutes later.
352
353It is harmless to specify this option for file handles that do not support
354keepalives, and enabling it on connections that are potentially long-lived
355is usually a good idea.
356
357=item oobinline => <boolean>
358
359BSD majorly fucked up the implementation of TCP urgent data. The result
360is that almost no OS implements TCP according to the specs, and every OS
361implements it slightly differently.
362
363If you want to handle TCP urgent data, then setting this flag (the default
364is enabled) gives you the most portable way of getting urgent data, by
365putting it into the stream.
366
367Since BSD emulation of OOB data on top of TCP's urgent data can have
368security implications, AnyEvent::Handle sets this flag automatically
369unless explicitly specified. Note that setting this flag after
370establishing a connection I<may> be a bit too late (data loss could
371already have occured on BSD systems), but at least it will protect you
372from most attacks.
373
374=item read_size => <bytes>
375
376The initial read block size, the number of bytes this module will try
377to read during each loop iteration. Each handle object will consume
378at least this amount of memory for the read buffer as well, so when
379handling many connections watch out for memory requirements). See also
380C<max_read_size>. Default: C<2048>.
381
382=item max_read_size => <bytes>
383
384The maximum read buffer size used by the dynamic adjustment
385algorithm: Each time AnyEvent::Handle can read C<read_size> bytes in
386one go it will double C<read_size> up to the maximum given by this
387option. Default: C<131072> or C<read_size>, whichever is higher.
388
389=item low_water_mark => <bytes>
390
391Sets the number of bytes (default: C<0>) that make up an "empty" write
392buffer: If the buffer reaches this size or gets even samller it is
393considered empty.
394
395Sometimes it can be beneficial (for performance reasons) to add data to
396the write buffer before it is fully drained, but this is a rare case, as
397the operating system kernel usually buffers data as well, so the default
398is good in almost all cases.
399
400=item linger => <seconds>
401
402If this is non-zero (default: C<3600>), the destructor of the
403AnyEvent::Handle object will check whether there is still outstanding
404write data and will install a watcher that will write this data to the
405socket. No errors will be reported (this mostly matches how the operating
406system treats outstanding data at socket close time).
407
408This will not work for partial TLS data that could not be encoded
409yet. This data will be lost. Calling the C<stoptls> method in time might
410help.
411
412=item peername => $string
413
414A string used to identify the remote site - usually the DNS hostname
415(I<not> IDN!) used to create the connection, rarely the IP address.
416
417Apart from being useful in error messages, this string is also used in TLS
418peername verification (see C<verify_peername> in L<AnyEvent::TLS>). This
419verification will be skipped when C<peername> is not specified or is
420C<undef>.
421
422=item tls => "accept" | "connect" | Net::SSLeay::SSL object
423
424When this parameter is given, it enables TLS (SSL) mode, that means
425AnyEvent will start a TLS handshake as soon as the connection has been
426established and will transparently encrypt/decrypt data afterwards.
427
428All TLS protocol errors will be signalled as C<EPROTO>, with an
429appropriate error message.
430
431TLS mode requires Net::SSLeay to be installed (it will be loaded
432automatically when you try to create a TLS handle): this module doesn't
433have a dependency on that module, so if your module requires it, you have
434to add the dependency yourself. If Net::SSLeay cannot be loaded or is too
435old, you get an C<EPROTO> error.
436
437Unlike TCP, TLS has a server and client side: for the TLS server side, use
438C<accept>, and for the TLS client side of a connection, use C<connect>
439mode.
440
441You can also provide your own TLS connection object, but you have
442to make sure that you call either C<Net::SSLeay::set_connect_state>
443or C<Net::SSLeay::set_accept_state> on it before you pass it to
444AnyEvent::Handle. Also, this module will take ownership of this connection
445object.
446
447At some future point, AnyEvent::Handle might switch to another TLS
448implementation, then the option to use your own session object will go
449away.
450
451B<IMPORTANT:> since Net::SSLeay "objects" are really only integers,
452passing in the wrong integer will lead to certain crash. This most often
453happens when one uses a stylish C<< tls => 1 >> and is surprised about the
454segmentation fault.
455
456Use the C<< ->starttls >> method if you need to start TLS negotiation later.
457
458=item tls_ctx => $anyevent_tls
459
460Use the given C<AnyEvent::TLS> object to create the new TLS connection
461(unless a connection object was specified directly). If this
462parameter is missing (or C<undef>), then AnyEvent::Handle will use
463C<AnyEvent::Handle::TLS_CTX>.
464
465Instead of an object, you can also specify a hash reference with C<< key
466=> value >> pairs. Those will be passed to L<AnyEvent::TLS> to create a
467new TLS context object.
468
469=item on_starttls => $cb->($handle, $success[, $error_message])
470
471This callback will be invoked when the TLS/SSL handshake has finished. If
472C<$success> is true, then the TLS handshake succeeded, otherwise it failed
473(C<on_stoptls> will not be called in this case).
474
475The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
476callback, even when the handshake was not successful.
477
478TLS handshake failures will not cause C<on_error> to be invoked when this
479callback is in effect, instead, the error message will be passed to C<on_starttls>.
480
481Without this callback, handshake failures lead to C<on_error> being
482called as usual.
483
484Note that you cannot just call C<starttls> again in this callback. If you
485need to do that, start an zero-second timer instead whose callback can
486then call C<< ->starttls >> again.
487
488=item on_stoptls => $cb->($handle)
489
490When a SSLv3/TLS shutdown/close notify/EOF is detected and this callback is
491set, then it will be invoked after freeing the TLS session. If it is not,
492then a TLS shutdown condition will be treated like a normal EOF condition
493on the handle.
494
495The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
496callback.
497
498This callback will only be called on TLS shutdowns, not when the
499underlying handle signals EOF.
500
501=item json => L<JSON> or L<JSON::XS> object
502
503This is the json coder object used by the C<json> read and write types.
504
505If you don't supply it, then AnyEvent::Handle will create and use a
506suitable one (on demand), which will write and expect UTF-8 encoded JSON
507texts.
508
509Note that you are responsible to depend on the L<JSON> module if you want
510to use this functionality, as AnyEvent does not have a dependency on it
511itself.
512
513=item cbor => L<CBOR::XS> object
514
515This is the cbor coder object used by the C<cbor> read and write types.

517If you don't supply it, then AnyEvent::Handle will create and use a
518suitable one (on demand), which will write CBOR without using extensions,
519if possible. texts.

521Note that you are responsible to depend on the L<CBOR::XS> module if you
522want to use this functionality, as AnyEvent does not have a dependency on
523it itself.

902=head2 WRITE QUEUE
903
904AnyEvent::Handle manages two queues per handle, one for writing and one
905for reading.
906
907The write queue is very simple: you can add data to its end, and
908AnyEvent::Handle will automatically try to get rid of it for you.
909
910When data could be written and the write buffer is shorter then the low
911water mark, the C<on_drain> callback will be invoked once.

1018Instead of formatting your data yourself, you can also let this module
1019do the job by specifying a type and type-specific arguments. You
1020can also specify the (fully qualified) name of a package, in which
1021case AnyEvent tries to load the package and then expects to find the
1022C<anyevent_write_type> function inside (see "custom write types", below).
1023

1025drop by and tell us):

1040};
1041
1042=item packstring => $format, $data
1043
1044An octet string prefixed with an encoded length. The encoding C<$format>
1045uses the same format as a Perl C<pack> format, but must specify a single
1046integer only (only one of C<cCsSlLqQiInNvVjJw> is allowed, plus an
1047optional C<!>, C<< < >> or C<< > >> modifier).

1052 my ($self, $format, $string) = @_;
1053
1054 pack "$format/a*", $string
1055};
1056
1057=item json => $array_or_hashref
1058
1059Encodes the given hash or array reference into a JSON object. Unless you
1060provide your own JSON object, this means it will be encoded to JSON text
1061in UTF-8.
1062
1063JSON objects (and arrays) are self-delimiting, so you can write JSON at
1064one end of a handle and read them at the other end without using any
1065additional framing.
1066
1067The generated JSON text is guaranteed not to contain any newlines: While
1068this module doesn't need delimiters after or between JSON texts to be
1069able to read them, many other languages depend on that.
1070
1071A simple RPC protocol that interoperates easily with other languages is
1072to send JSON arrays (or objects, although arrays are usually the better
1073choice as they mimic how function argument passing works) and a newline
1074after each JSON text:
1075
1076 $handle->push_write (json => ["method", "arg1", "arg2"]); # whatever
1077 $handle->push_write ("\012");
1078
1079An AnyEvent::Handle receiver would simply use the C<json> read type and
1080rely on the fact that the newline will be skipped as leading whitespace:
1081
1082 $handle->push_read (json => sub { my $array = $_[1]; ... });
1083
1084Other languages could read single lines terminated by a newline and pass
1085this line into their JSON decoder of choice.
1086
1087=item cbor => $perl_scalar
1088
1089Encodes the given scalar into a CBOR value. Unless you provide your own
1090L<CBOR::XS> object, this means it will be encoded to a CBOR string not
1091using any extensions, if possible.
1092
1093CBOR values are self-delimiting, so you can write CBOR at one end of
1094a handle and read them at the other end without using any additional
1095framing.
1096
1097A simple nd very very fast RPC protocol that interoperates with
1098other languages is to send CBOR and receive CBOR values (arrays are
1099recommended):
1100
1101 $handle->push_write (cbor => ["method", "arg1", "arg2"]); # whatever
1102
1103An AnyEvent::Handle receiver would simply use the C<cbor> read type:

1150=item $handle->push_shutdown
1151
1152Sometimes you know you want to close the socket after writing your data
1153before it was actually written. One way to do that is to replace your
1154C<on_drain> handler by a callback that shuts down the socket (and set
1155C<low_water_mark> to C<0>). This method is a shorthand for just that, and
1156replaces the C<on_drain> callback with:
1157
1158 sub { shutdown $_[0]{fh}, 1 }
1159
1160This simply shuts down the write side and signals an EOF condition to the
1161the peer.
1162
1163You can rely on the normal read queue and C<on_eof> handling
1164afterwards. This is the cleanest way to close a connection.
1165
1166This method may invoke callbacks (and therefore the handle might be
1167destroyed after it returns).
1168

1170
1171sub push_shutdown {
1172 my ($self) = @_;

1174 delete $self->{low_water_mark};
1175 $self->on_drain (sub { shutdown $_[0]{fh}, 1 });
1176}
1177
1178=item custom write types - Package::anyevent_write_type $handle, @args
1179
1180Instead of one of the predefined types, you can also specify the name of
1181a package. AnyEvent will try to load the package and then expects to find
1182a function named C<anyevent_write_type> inside. If it isn't found, it
1183progressively tries to load the parent package until it either finds the
1184function (good) or runs out of packages (bad).
1185
1186Whenever the given C<type> is used, C<push_write> will the function with
1187the handle object and the remaining arguments.
1188
1189The function is supposed to return a single octet string that will be
1190appended to the write buffer, so you can mentally treat this function as a
1191"arguments to on-the-wire-format" converter.
1192
1193Example: implement a custom write type C<join> that joins the remaining
1194arguments using the first one.
1195
1196 $handle->push_write (My::Type => " ", 1,2,3);
1197
1198 # uses the following package, which can be defined in the "My::Type" or in
1199 # the "My" modules to be auto-loaded, or just about anywhere when the
1200 # My::Type::anyevent_write_type is defined before invoking it.
1201

1203

1216=head2 READ QUEUE
1217
1218AnyEvent::Handle manages two queues per handle, one for writing and one
1219for reading.
1220
1221The read queue is more complex than the write queue. It can be used in two
1222ways, the "simple" way, using only C<on_read> and the "complex" way, using
1223a queue.
1224
1225In the simple case, you just install an C<on_read> callback and whenever
1226new data arrives, it will be called. You can then remove some data (if
1227enough is there) from the read buffer (C<< $handle->rbuf >>). Or you can
1228leave the data there if you want to accumulate more (e.g. when only a
1229partial message has been received so far), or change the read queue with
1230e.g. C<push_read>.
1231
1232In the more complex case, you want to queue multiple callbacks. In this
1233case, AnyEvent::Handle will call the first queued callback each time new
1234data arrives (also the first time it is queued) and remove it when it has
1235done its job (see C<push_read>, below).
1236
1237This way you can, for example, push three line-reads, followed by reading
1238a chunk of data, and AnyEvent::Handle will execute them in order.
1239
1240Example 1: EPP protocol parser. EPP sends 4 byte length info, followed by
1241the specified number of bytes which give an XML datagram.
1242
1243 # in the default state, expect some header bytes
1244 $handle->on_read (sub {
1245 # some data is here, now queue the length-header-read (4 octets)
1246 shift->unshift_read (chunk => 4, sub {
1247 # header arrived, decode
1248 my $len = unpack "N", $_[1];
1249
1250 # now read the payload
1251 shift->unshift_read (chunk => $len, sub {
1252 my $xml = $_[1];
1253 # handle xml
1254 });
1255 });
1256 });
1257
1258Example 2: Implement a client for a protocol that replies either with "OK"
1259and another line or "ERROR" for the first request that is sent, and 64
1260bytes for the second request. Due to the availability of a queue, we can
1261just pipeline sending both requests and manipulate the queue as necessary
1262in the callbacks.
1263
1264When the first callback is called and sees an "OK" response, it will
1265C<unshift> another line-read. This line-read will be queued I<before> the
126664-byte chunk callback.
1267
1268 # request one, returns either "OK + extra line" or "ERROR"
1269 $handle->push_write ("request 1\015\012");
1270
1271 # we expect "ERROR" or "OK" as response, so push a line read
1272 $handle->push_read (line => sub {
1273 # if we got an "OK", we have to _prepend_ another line,
1274 # so it will be read before the second request reads its 64 bytes
1275 # which are already in the queue when this callback is called
1276 # we don't do this in case we got an error
1277 if ($_[1] eq "OK") {
1278 $_[0]->unshift_read (line => sub {
1279 my $response = $_[1];
1280 ...
1281 });
38 } 1282 }
39 }); 1283 });
40 1284
41 # or use the constructor to pass the callback: 1285 # request two, simply returns 64 octets

60=head1 DESCRIPTION
61
62This module is a helper module to make it easier to do non-blocking I/O
63on filehandles (and sockets, see L<AnyEvent::Socket>).
64
65The event loop is provided by L<AnyEvent>.
66
67=head1 METHODS
68
69=over 4
70
71=item B<new (%args)>
72
73The constructor has these arguments:
74
75=over 4
76
77=item fh => $filehandle
78
79The filehandle this L<AnyEvent::Handle> object will operate on.
80
81NOTE: The filehandle will be set to non-blocking.
82
83=item read_block_size => $size
84
85The default read block size use for reads via the C<on_read>
86method.
87
88=item on_read => $cb
89
90=item on_eof => $cb
91
92=item on_error => $cb
93
94These are shortcuts, that will call the corresponding method and set the callback to C<$cb>.
95
96=item on_readline => $cb
97
98The C<readlines> method is called with the default seperator and C<$cb> as callback
99for you.

135This method returns the filehandle of the L<AnyEvent::Handle> object. 1369=item $handle->on_read ($cb)
136 1370
137=cut 1371This replaces the currently set C<on_read> callback, or clears it (when
1372the new callback is C<undef>). See the description of C<on_read> in the
1373constructor.
138 1374
139sub fh { $_[0]->{fh} } 1375This method may invoke callbacks (and therefore the handle might be
140 1376destroyed after it returns).
141=item B<on_read ($callback)>
142
143This method installs a C<$callback> that will be called
144when new data arrived. You can access the read buffer via the C<rbuf>
145method (see below).
146
147The first argument of the C<$callback> will be the L<AnyEvent::Handle> object.

154 1386
155 unless (defined $self->{on_read}) { 1387=item $handle->rbuf
156 delete $self->{on_read_w}; 1388
1389Returns the read buffer (as a modifiable lvalue). You can also access the
1390read buffer directly as the C<< ->{rbuf} >> member, if you want (this is
1391much faster, and no less clean).
1392
1393The only operation allowed on the read buffer (apart from looking at it)
1394is removing data from its beginning. Otherwise modifying or appending to
1395it is not allowed and will lead to hard-to-track-down bugs.
1396
1397NOTE: The read buffer should only be used or modified in the C<on_read>
1398callback or when C<push_read> or C<unshift_read> are used with a single
1399callback (i.e. untyped). Typed C<push_read> and C<unshift_read> methods
1400will manage the read buffer on their own.

1406}
1407
1408=item $handle->push_read ($cb)
1409
1410=item $handle->unshift_read ($cb)
1411
1412Append the given callback to the end of the queue (C<push_read>) or
1413prepend it (C<unshift_read>).
1414
1415The callback is called each time some additional read data arrives.
1416
1417It must check whether enough data is in the read buffer already.
1418
1419If not enough data is available, it must return the empty list or a false
1420value, in which case it will be called repeatedly until enough data is
1421available (or an error condition is detected).
1422
1423If enough data was available, then the callback must remove all data it is
1424interested in (which can be none at all) and return a true value. After returning
1425true, it will be removed from the queue.
1426
1427These methods may invoke callbacks (and therefore the handle might be
1428destroyed after it returns).

1473
1474Instead of providing a callback that parses the data itself you can chose
1475between a number of predefined parsing formats, for chunks of data, lines
1476etc. You can also specify the (fully qualified) name of a package, in
1477which case AnyEvent tries to load the package and then expects to find the
1478C<anyevent_read_type> function inside (see "custom read types", below).
1479
1480Predefined types are (if you have ideas for additional types, feel free to
1481drop by and tell us):
1482
1483=over 4
1484
1485=item chunk => $octets, $cb->($handle, $data)
1486
1487Invoke the callback only once C<$octets> bytes have been read. Pass the
1488data read to the callback. The callback will never be called with less
1489data.
1490
1491Example: read 2 bytes.
1492
1493 $handle->push_read (chunk => 2, sub {
1494 say "yay " . unpack "H*", $_[1];
1495 });

1504 $cb->($_[0], substr $_[0]{rbuf}, 0, $len, "");
1505 1
1506 }
1507};
1508
1509=item line => [$eol, ]$cb->($handle, $line, $eol)
1510
1511The callback will be called only once a full line (including the end of
1512line marker, C<$eol>) has been read. This line (excluding the end of line
1513marker) will be passed to the callback as second argument (C<$line>), and
1514the end of line marker as the third argument (C<$eol>).
1515
1516The end of line marker, C<$eol>, can be either a string, in which case it
1517will be interpreted as a fixed record end marker, or it can be a regex
1518object (e.g. created by C<qr>), in which case it is interpreted as a
1519regular expression.
1520
1521The end of line marker argument C<$eol> is optional, if it is missing (NOT
1522undef), then C<qr|\015?\012|> is used (which is good for most internet
1523protocols).
1524
1525Partial lines at the end of the stream will never be returned, as they are
1526not marked by the end of line marker.

1555
1556=item regex => $accept[, $reject[, $skip], $cb->($handle, $data)
1557
1558Makes a regex match against the regex object C<$accept> and returns
1559everything up to and including the match.
1560
1561Example: read a single line terminated by '\n'.
1562
1563 $handle->push_read (regex => qr<\n>, sub { ... });
1564
1565If C<$reject> is given and not undef, then it determines when the data is
1566to be rejected: it is matched against the data when the C<$accept> regex
1567does not match and generates an C<EBADMSG> error when it matches. This is
1568useful to quickly reject wrong data (to avoid waiting for a timeout or a
1569receive buffer overflow).
1570
1571Example: expect a single decimal number followed by whitespace, reject
1572anything else (not the use of an anchor).
1573
1574 $handle->push_read (regex => qr<^[0-9]+\s>, qr<[^0-9]>, sub { ... });
1575
1576If C<$skip> is given and not C<undef>, then it will be matched against
1577the receive buffer when neither C<$accept> nor C<$reject> match,
1578and everything preceding and including the match will be accepted
1579unconditionally. This is useful to skip large amounts of data that you
1580know cannot be matched, so that the C<$accept> or C<$reject> regex do not
1581have to start matching from the beginning. This is purely an optimisation
1582and is usually worth it only when you expect more than a few kilobytes.
1583
1584Example: expect a http header, which ends at C<\015\012\015\012>. Since we
1585expect the header to be very large (it isn't in practice, but...), we use
1586a skip regex to skip initial portions. The skip regex is tricky in that
1587it only accepts something not ending in either \015 or \012, as these are
1588required for the accept regex.
1589
1590 $handle->push_read (regex =>
1591 qr<\015\012\015\012>,

1667optional C<!>, C<< < >> or C<< > >> modifier).
1668
1669For example, DNS over TCP uses a prefix of C<n> (2 octet network order),
1670EPP uses a prefix of C<N> (4 octtes).

1710Reads a JSON object or array, decodes it and passes it to the

1713If a C<json> object was passed to the constructor, then that will be used

1715
1716This read type uses the incremental parser available with JSON version
17172.09 (and JSON::XS version 2.2) and above. You have to provide a

1852
1853Checks the input stream for a valid SSL or TLS handshake TLSPaintext
1854record without consuming anything. Only SSL version 3 or higher
1855is handled, up to the fictituous protocol 4.x (but both SSL3+ and
1856SSL2-compatible framing is supported).
1857
1858If it detects that the input data is likely TLS, it calls the callback
1859with a true value for C<$detect> and the (on-wire) TLS version as second
1860and third argument (C<$major> is C<3>, and C<$minor> is 0..3 for SSL
18613.0, TLS 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2, respectively). If it detects the input to
1862be definitely not TLS, it calls the callback with a false value for
1863C<$detect>.
1864
1865The callback could use this information to decide whether or not to start
1866TLS negotiation.
1867
1868In all cases the data read so far is passed to the following read
1869handlers.
1870
1871Usually you want to use the C<tls_autostart> read type instead.
1872
1873If you want to design a protocol that works in the presence of TLS
1874dtection, make sure that any non-TLS data doesn't start with the octet 22
1875(ASCII SYN, 16 hex) or 128-255 (i.e. highest bit set). The checks this
1876read type does are a bit more strict, but might losen in the future to
1877accomodate protocol changes.
1878
1879This read type does not rely on L<AnyEvent::TLS> (and thus, not on
1880L<Net::SSLeay>).
1881
1882=item tls_autostart => $tls[, $tls_ctx]
1883
1884Tries to detect a valid SSL or TLS handshake. If one is detected, it tries
1885to start tls by calling C<starttls> with the given arguments.
1886
1887In practise, C<$tls> must be C<accept>, or a Net::SSLeay context that has
1888been configured to accept, as servers do not normally send a handshake on
1889their own and ths cannot be detected in this way.
1890
1891See C<tls_detect> above for more details.
1892
1893Example: give the client a chance to start TLS before accepting a text
1894line.

1896 $hdl->push_read (tls_detect => "accept");
1897 $hdl->push_read (line => sub {

164 my $l; 1940
1941Instead of one of the predefined types, you can also specify the name
1942of a package. AnyEvent will try to load the package and then expects to
1943find a function named C<anyevent_read_type> inside. If it isn't found, it
1944progressively tries to load the parent package until it either finds the
1945function (good) or runs out of packages (bad).
1946
1947Whenever this type is used, C<push_read> will invoke the function with the
1948handle object, the original callback and the remaining arguments.
1949
1950The function is supposed to return a callback (usually a closure) that
1951works as a plain read callback (see C<< ->push_read ($cb) >>), so you can
1952mentally treat the function as a "configurable read type to read callback"
1953converter.
1954
1955It should invoke the original callback when it is done reading (remember
1956to pass C<$handle> as first argument as all other callbacks do that,
1957although there is no strict requirement on this).
1958
1959For examples, see the source of this module (F<perldoc -m
1960AnyEvent::Handle>, search for C<register_read_type>)).
1961
1962=item $handle->stop_read
1963
1964=item $handle->start_read
1965
1966In rare cases you actually do not want to read anything from the
1967socket. In this case you can call C<stop_read>. Neither C<on_read> nor
1968any queued callbacks will be executed then. To start reading again, call
1969C<start_read>.
1970
1971Note that AnyEvent::Handle will automatically C<start_read> for you when
1972you change the C<on_read> callback or push/unshift a read callback, and it
1973will automatically C<stop_read> for you when neither C<on_read> is set nor
1974there are any read requests in the queue.
1975
1976In older versions of this module (<= 5.3), these methods had no effect,
1977as TLS does not support half-duplex connections. In current versions they
1978work as expected, as this behaviour is required to avoid certain resource
1979attacks, where the program would be forced to read (and buffer) arbitrary
1980amounts of data before being able to send some data. The drawback is that
1981some readings of the the SSL/TLS specifications basically require this
1982attack to be working, as SSL/TLS implementations might stall sending data
1983during a rehandshake.
1984
1985As a guideline, during the initial handshake, you should not stop reading,
1986and as a client, it might cause problems, depending on your application.

2117
2118Instead of starting TLS negotiation immediately when the AnyEvent::Handle
2119object is created, you can also do that at a later time by calling
2120C<starttls>. See the C<tls> constructor argument for general info.
2121
2122Starting TLS is currently an asynchronous operation - when you push some
2123write data and then call C<< ->starttls >> then TLS negotiation will start
2124immediately, after which the queued write data is then sent. This might
2125change in future versions, so best make sure you have no outstanding write
2126data when calling this method.
2127
2128The first argument is the same as the C<tls> constructor argument (either
2129C<"connect">, C<"accept"> or an existing Net::SSLeay object).
2130
2131The second argument is the optional C<AnyEvent::TLS> object that is used
2132when AnyEvent::Handle has to create its own TLS connection object, or
2133a hash reference with C<< key => value >> pairs that will be used to
2134construct a new context.
2135
2136The TLS connection object will end up in C<< $handle->{tls} >>, the TLS
2137context in C<< $handle->{tls_ctx} >> after this call and can be used or
2138changed to your liking. Note that the handshake might have already started
2139when this function returns.
2140
2141Due to bugs in OpenSSL, it might or might not be possible to do multiple
2142handshakes on the same stream. It is best to not attempt to use the
2143stream after stopping TLS.
2144
2145This method may invoke callbacks (and therefore the handle might be
2146destroyed after it returns).

2301=item $handle->destroy
2302
2303Shuts down the handle object as much as possible - this call ensures that
2304no further callbacks will be invoked and as many resources as possible
2305will be freed. Any method you will call on the handle object after
2306destroying it in this way will be silently ignored (and it will return the
2307empty list).
2308
2309Normally, you can just "forget" any references to an AnyEvent::Handle
2310object and it will simply shut down. This works in fatal error and EOF
2311callbacks, as well as code outside. It does I<NOT> work in a read or write
2312callback, so when you want to destroy the AnyEvent::Handle object from
2313within such an callback. You I<MUST> call C<< ->destroy >> explicitly in
2314that case.
2315
2316Destroying the handle object in this way has the advantage that callbacks
2317will be removed as well, so if those are the only reference holders (as
2318is common), then one doesn't need to do anything special to break any
2319reference cycles.
2320
2321The handle might still linger in the background and write out remaining
2322data, as specified by the C<linger> option, however.

2340Returns false as long as the handle hasn't been destroyed by a call to C<<
2341->destroy >>, true otherwise.
2342
2343Can be useful to decide whether the handle is still valid after some
2344callback possibly destroyed the handle. For example, C<< ->push_write >>,
2345C<< ->starttls >> and other methods can call user callbacks, which in turn
2346can destroy the handle, so work can be avoided by checking sometimes:
2347
2348 $hdl->starttls ("accept");
2349 return if $hdl->destroyed;
2350 $hdl->push_write (...
2351
2352Note that the call to C<push_write> will silently be ignored if the handle
2353has been destroyed, so often you can just ignore the possibility of the
2354handle being destroyed.

2385=over 4
2386
2387=item I C<undef> the AnyEvent::Handle reference inside my callback and
2388still get further invocations!
2389
2390That's because AnyEvent::Handle keeps a reference to itself when handling
2391read or write callbacks.
2392
2393It is only safe to "forget" the reference inside EOF or error callbacks,
2394from within all other callbacks, you need to explicitly call the C<<
2395->destroy >> method.
2396
2397=item Why is my C<on_eof> callback never called?
2398
2399Probably because your C<on_error> callback is being called instead: When
2400you have outstanding requests in your read queue, then an EOF is
2401considered an error as you clearly expected some data.
2402
2403To avoid this, make sure you have an empty read queue whenever your handle
2404is supposed to be "idle" (i.e. connection closes are O.K.). You can set
2405an C<on_read> handler that simply pushes the first read requests in the
2406queue.
2407
2408See also the next question, which explains this in a bit more detail.
2409
2410=item How can I serve requests in a loop?
2411
2412Most protocols consist of some setup phase (authentication for example)
2413followed by a request handling phase, where the server waits for requests
2414and handles them, in a loop.
2415
2416There are two important variants: The first (traditional, better) variant
2417handles requests until the server gets some QUIT command, causing it to
2418close the connection first (highly desirable for a busy TCP server). A
2419client dropping the connection is an error, which means this variant can
2420detect an unexpected detection close.
2421
2422To handle this case, always make sure you have a non-empty read queue, by
2423pushing the "read request start" handler on it:
2424
2425 # we assume a request starts with a single line
2426 my @start_request; @start_request = (line => sub {
2427 my ($hdl, $line) = @_;
2428
2429 ... handle request
2430
2431 # push next request read, possibly from a nested callback
2432 $hdl->push_read (@start_request);
2433 });
2434
2435 # auth done, now go into request handling loop
2436 # now push the first @start_request
2437 $hdl->push_read (@start_request);
2438
2439By always having an outstanding C<push_read>, the handle always expects
2440some data and raises the C<EPIPE> error when the connction is dropped
2441unexpectedly.
2442
2443The second variant is a protocol where the client can drop the connection
2444at any time. For TCP, this means that the server machine may run out of
2445sockets easier, and in general, it means you cannot distinguish a protocl
2446failure/client crash from a normal connection close. Nevertheless, these
2447kinds of protocols are common (and sometimes even the best solution to the
2448problem).
2449
2450Having an outstanding read request at all times is possible if you ignore
2451C<EPIPE> errors, but this doesn't help with when the client drops the
2452connection during a request, which would still be an error.
2453
2454A better solution is to push the initial request read in an C<on_read>
2455callback. This avoids an error, as when the server doesn't expect data
2456(i.e. is idly waiting for the next request, an EOF will not raise an
2457error, but simply result in an C<on_eof> callback. It is also a bit slower
2458and simpler:
2459
2460 # auth done, now go into request handling loop
2461 $hdl->on_read (sub {
2462 my ($hdl) = @_;
2463
2464 # called each time we receive data but the read queue is empty
2465 # simply start read the request
2466
2467 $hdl->push_read (line => sub {
2468 my ($hdl, $line) = @_;
2469
2470 ... handle request
2471
2472 # do nothing special when the request has been handled, just
2473 # let the request queue go empty.
355 }); 2474 });
356} 2475 });
2476
2477=item I get different callback invocations in TLS mode/Why can't I pause
2478reading?
2479
2480Unlike, say, TCP, TLS connections do not consist of two independent
2481communication channels, one for each direction. Or put differently, the
2482read and write directions are not independent of each other: you cannot
2483write data unless you are also prepared to read, and vice versa.
2484
2485This means that, in TLS mode, you might get C<on_error> or C<on_eof>
2486callback invocations when you are not expecting any read data - the reason
2487is that AnyEvent::Handle always reads in TLS mode.
2488
2489During the connection, you have to make sure that you always have a
2490non-empty read-queue, or an C<on_read> watcher. At the end of the
2491connection (or when you no longer want to use it) you can call the
2492C<destroy> method.
2493
2494=item How do I read data until the other side closes the connection?
2495
2496If you just want to read your data into a perl scalar, the easiest way
2497to achieve this is by setting an C<on_read> callback that does nothing,
2498clearing the C<on_eof> callback and in the C<on_error> callback, the data
2499will be in C<$_[0]{rbuf}>:
2500
2501 $handle->on_read (sub { });
2502 $handle->on_eof (undef);
2503 $handle->on_error (sub {
2504 my $data = delete $_[0]{rbuf};
2505 });
2506
2507Note that this example removes the C<rbuf> member from the handle object,
2508which is not normally allowed by the API. It is expressly permitted in
2509this case only, as the handle object needs to be destroyed afterwards.
2510
2511The reason to use C<on_error> is that TCP connections, due to latencies
2512and packets loss, might get closed quite violently with an error, when in
2513fact all data has been received.
2514
2515It is usually better to use acknowledgements when transferring data,
2516to make sure the other side hasn't just died and you got the data
2517intact. This is also one reason why so many internet protocols have an
2518explicit QUIT command.
2519
2520=item I don't want to destroy the handle too early - how do I wait until
2521all data has been written?
2522
2523After writing your last bits of data, set the C<on_drain> callback
2524and destroy the handle in there - with the default setting of
2525C<low_water_mark> this will be called precisely when all data has been
2526written to the socket:
2527
2528 $handle->push_write (...);
2529 $handle->on_drain (sub {
2530 AE::log debug => "All data submitted to the kernel.";
2531 undef $handle;
2532 });
2533
2534If you just want to queue some data and then signal EOF to the other side,
2535consider using C<< ->push_shutdown >> instead.
2536
2537=item I want to contact a TLS/SSL server, I don't care about security.
2538
2539If your TLS server is a pure TLS server (e.g. HTTPS) that only speaks TLS,
2540connect to it and then create the AnyEvent::Handle with the C<tls>
2541parameter:
2542
2543 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
2544 my ($fh) = @_;
2545
2546 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2547 fh => $fh,
2548 tls => "connect",
2549 on_error => sub { ... };
2550
2551 $handle->push_write (...);
2552 };
2553
2554=item I want to contact a TLS/SSL server, I do care about security.
2555
2556Then you should additionally enable certificate verification, including
2557peername verification, if the protocol you use supports it (see
2558L<AnyEvent::TLS>, C<verify_peername>).
2559
2560E.g. for HTTPS:
2561
2562 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
2563 my ($fh) = @_;
2564
2565 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2566 fh => $fh,
2567 peername => $host,
2568 tls => "connect",
2569 tls_ctx => { verify => 1, verify_peername => "https" },
2570 ...
2571
2572Note that you must specify the hostname you connected to (or whatever
2573"peername" the protocol needs) as the C<peername> argument, otherwise no
2574peername verification will be done.
2575
2576The above will use the system-dependent default set of trusted CA
2577certificates. If you want to check against a specific CA, add the
2578C<ca_file> (or C<ca_cert>) arguments to C<tls_ctx>:
2579
2580 tls_ctx => {
2581 verify => 1,
2582 verify_peername => "https",
2583 ca_file => "my-ca-cert.pem",
2584 },
2585
2586=item I want to create a TLS/SSL server, how do I do that?
2587
2588Well, you first need to get a server certificate and key. You have
2589three options: a) ask a CA (buy one, use cacert.org etc.) b) create a
2590self-signed certificate (cheap. check the search engine of your choice,
2591there are many tutorials on the net) or c) make your own CA (tinyca2 is a
2592nice program for that purpose).
2593
2594Then create a file with your private key (in PEM format, see
2595L<AnyEvent::TLS>), followed by the certificate (also in PEM format). The
2596file should then look like this:
2597
2598 -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2599 ...header data
2600 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2601 -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2602
2603 -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
2604 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2605 -----END CERTIFICATE-----
2606
2607The important bits are the "PRIVATE KEY" and "CERTIFICATE" parts. Then
2608specify this file as C<cert_file>:
2609
2610 tcp_server undef, $port, sub {
2611 my ($fh) = @_;
2612
2613 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2614 fh => $fh,
2615 tls => "accept",
2616 tls_ctx => { cert_file => "my-server-keycert.pem" },
2617 ...
2618
2619When you have intermediate CA certificates that your clients might not
2620know about, just append them to the C<cert_file>.

2624=head1 SUBCLASSING AnyEvent::Handle
2625
2626In many cases, you might want to subclass AnyEvent::Handle.
2627
2628To make this easier, a given version of AnyEvent::Handle uses these
2629conventions:
2630
2631=over 4
2632
2633=item * all constructor arguments become object members.
2634
2635At least initially, when you pass a C<tls>-argument to the constructor it
2636will end up in C<< $handle->{tls} >>. Those members might be changed or
2637mutated later on (for example C<tls> will hold the TLS connection object).
2638
2639=item * other object member names are prefixed with an C<_>.
2640
2641All object members not explicitly documented (internal use) are prefixed
2642with an underscore character, so the remaining non-C<_>-namespace is free
2643for use for subclasses.
2644
2645=item * all members not documented here and not prefixed with an underscore
2646are free to use in subclasses.
2647
2648Of course, new versions of AnyEvent::Handle may introduce more "public"
2649member variables, but that's just life. At least it is documented.
