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>.

97that mode.

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
78=item on_eof => $cb->($handle) 116=item on_prepare => $cb->($handle)
79 117
80Set the callback to be called when an end-of-file condition is detected, 118This (rarely used) callback is called before a new connection is
81i.e. in the case of a socket, when the other side has closed the 119attempted, but after the file handle has been created. It could be used to
82connection cleanly. 120prepare the file handle with parameters required for the actual connect
121(as opposed to settings that can be changed when the connection is already
122established).
83 123
84While not mandatory, it is highly recommended to set an eof callback, 124The return value of this callback should be the connect timeout value in
85otherwise you might end up with a closed socket while you are still 125seconds (or C<0>, or C<undef>, or the empty list, to indicate that the
86waiting for data. 126default timeout is to be used).
87 127
128=item on_connect => $cb->($handle, $host, $port, $retry->())
129
130This callback is called when a connection has been successfully established.
131
132The peer's numeric host and port (the socket peername) are passed as
133parameters, together with a retry callback.
134
135If, for some reason, the handle is not acceptable, calling C<$retry>
136will continue with the next connection target (in case of multi-homed
137hosts or SRV records there can be multiple connection endpoints). At the
138time it is called the read and write queues, eof status, tls status and
139similar properties of the handle will have been reset.
140
141In most cases, you should ignore the C<$retry> parameter.
142
143=item on_connect_error => $cb->($handle, $message)
144
145This callback is called when the connection could not be
146established. C<$!> will contain the relevant error code, and C<$message> a
147message describing it (usually the same as C<"$!">).
148
149If this callback isn't specified, then C<on_error> will be called with a
150fatal error instead.
151
152=back
153
88=item on_error => $cb->($handle, $fatal) 154=item on_error => $cb->($handle, $fatal, $message)

91occured, such as not being able to resolve the hostname, failure to 157occured, such as not being able to resolve the hostname, failure to
92connect or a read error. 158connect, or a read error.
93 159
94Some errors are fatal (which is indicated by C<$fatal> being true). On 160Some errors are fatal (which is indicated by C<$fatal> being true). On
95fatal errors the handle object will be shut down and will not be 161fatal errors the handle object will be destroyed (by a call to C<< ->
162destroy >>) after invoking the error callback (which means you are free to
163examine the handle object). Examples of fatal errors are an EOF condition
164with active (but unsatisfiable) read watchers (C<EPIPE>) or I/O errors. In
165cases where the other side can close the connection at will, it is
166often easiest to not report C<EPIPE> errors in this callback.
167
168AnyEvent::Handle tries to find an appropriate error code for you to check
169against, but in some cases (TLS errors), this does not work well. It is
170recommended to always output the C<$message> argument in human-readable
171error messages (it's usually the same as C<"$!">).

176C<ETIMEDOUT>) or badly-formatted data (C<EBADMSG>).
99 177
100On callback entrance, the value of C<$!> contains the operating system 178On entry to the callback, the value of C<$!> contains the operating
101error (or C<ENOSPC>, C<EPIPE>, C<ETIMEDOUT> or C<EBADMSG>). 179system error code (or C<ENOSPC>, C<EPIPE>, C<ETIMEDOUT>, C<EBADMSG> or
180C<EPROTO>).

115method or access the C<$handle->{rbuf}> member directly. 194method or access the C<< $handle->{rbuf} >> member directly. Note that you
195must not enlarge or modify the read buffer, you can only remove data at
196the beginning from it.
116 197
198You can also call C<< ->push_read (...) >> or any other function that
199modifies the read queue. Or do both. Or ...
200
117When an EOF condition is detected then AnyEvent::Handle will first try to 201When an EOF condition is detected, AnyEvent::Handle will first try to
118feed all the remaining data to the queued callbacks and C<on_read> before 202feed all the remaining data to the queued callbacks and C<on_read> before
119calling the C<on_eof> callback. If no progress can be made, then a fatal 203calling the C<on_eof> callback. If no progress can be made, then a fatal
120error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<EPIPE>). 204error will be raised (with C<$!> set to C<EPIPE>).
121 205
206Note that, unlike requests in the read queue, an C<on_read> callback
207doesn't mean you I<require> some data: if there is an EOF and there
208are outstanding read requests then an error will be flagged. With an
209C<on_read> callback, the C<on_eof> callback will be invoked.
210
211=item on_eof => $cb->($handle)
212
213Set the callback to be called when an end-of-file condition is detected,
214i.e. in the case of a socket, when the other side has closed the
215connection cleanly, and there are no outstanding read requests in the
216queue (if there are read requests, then an EOF counts as an unexpected
217connection close and will be flagged as an error).
218
219For sockets, this just means that the other side has stopped sending data,
220you can still try to write data, and, in fact, one can return from the EOF
221callback and continue writing data, as only the read part has been shut
222down.
223
224If an EOF condition has been detected but no C<on_eof> callback has been
225set, then a fatal error will be raised with C<$!> set to <0>.
226

125(or when the callback is set and the buffer is empty already). 230(or immediately if the buffer is empty already).

127To append to the write buffer, use the C<< ->push_write >> method. 232To append to the write buffer, use the C<< ->push_write >> method.

250error will be raised).
141 251
252There are three variants of the timeouts that work independently
253of each other, for both read and write, just read, and just write:
254C<timeout>, C<rtimeout> and C<wtimeout>, with corresponding callbacks
255C<on_timeout>, C<on_rtimeout> and C<on_wtimeout>, and reset functions
256C<timeout_reset>, C<rtimeout_reset>, and C<wtimeout_reset>.

309
310=item keepalive => <boolean>
311
312Enables (default disable) the SO_KEEPALIVE option on the stream socket:
313normally, TCP connections have no time-out once established, so TCP
314connections, once established, can stay alive forever even when the other
315side has long gone. TCP keepalives are a cheap way to take down long-lived
316TCP connections when the other side becomes unreachable. While the default
317is OS-dependent, TCP keepalives usually kick in after around two hours,
318and, if the other side doesn't reply, take down the TCP connection some 10
319to 15 minutes later.
320
321It is harmless to specify this option for file handles that do not support
322keepalives, and enabling it on connections that are potentially long-lived
323is usually a good idea.
324
325=item oobinline => <boolean>
326
327BSD majorly fucked up the implementation of TCP urgent data. The result
328is that almost no OS implements TCP according to the specs, and every OS
329implements it slightly differently.
330
331If you want to handle TCP urgent data, then setting this flag (the default
332is enabled) gives you the most portable way of getting urgent data, by
333putting it into the stream.
334
335Since BSD emulation of OOB data on top of TCP's urgent data can have
336security implications, AnyEvent::Handle sets this flag automatically
337unless explicitly specified. Note that setting this flag after
338establishing a connection I<may> be a bit too late (data loss could
339already have occured on BSD systems), but at least it will protect you
340from most attacks.
190 341
191=item read_size => <bytes> 342=item read_size => <bytes>

193The default read block size (the amount of bytes this module will try to read 344The initial read block size, the number of bytes this module will try to

346this amount of memory for the read buffer as well, so when handling many
347connections requirements). See also C<max_read_size>. Default: C<2048>.
348
349=item max_read_size => <bytes>
350
351The maximum read buffer size used by the dynamic adjustment
352algorithm: Each time AnyEvent::Handle can read C<read_size> bytes in
353one go it will double C<read_size> up to the maximum given by this
354option. Default: C<131072> or C<read_size>, whichever is higher.

201 361
362Sometimes it can be beneficial (for performance reasons) to add data to
363the write buffer before it is fully drained, but this is a rare case, as
364the operating system kernel usually buffers data as well, so the default
365is good in almost all cases.

378
379=item peername => $string
380
381A string used to identify the remote site - usually the DNS hostname
382(I<not> IDN!) used to create the connection, rarely the IP address.
383
384Apart from being useful in error messages, this string is also used in TLS
385peername verification (see C<verify_peername> in L<AnyEvent::TLS>). This
386verification will be skipped when C<peername> is not specified or is

401to add the dependency yourself.

405mode.

225You can also provide your own TLS connection object, but you have 407You can also provide your own TLS connection object, but you have
226to make sure that you call either C<Net::SSLeay::set_connect_state> 408to make sure that you call either C<Net::SSLeay::set_connect_state>

228AnyEvent::Handle. 410AnyEvent::Handle. Also, this module will take ownership of this connection
411object.
229 412
413At some future point, AnyEvent::Handle might switch to another TLS
414implementation, then the option to use your own session object will go
415away.
416
417B<IMPORTANT:> since Net::SSLeay "objects" are really only integers,
418passing in the wrong integer will lead to certain crash. This most often
419happens when one uses a stylish C<< tls => 1 >> and is surprised about the
420segmentation fault.
421
230See the C<starttls> method if you need to start TLs negotiation later. 422Use the C<< ->starttls >> method if you need to start TLS negotiation later.

234Use the given Net::SSLeay::CTX object to create the new TLS connection 426Use the given C<AnyEvent::TLS> object to create the new TLS connection
235(unless a connection object was specified directly). If this parameter is 427(unless a connection object was specified directly). If this
236missing, then AnyEvent::Handle will use C<AnyEvent::Handle::TLS_CTX>. 428parameter is missing (or C<undef>), then AnyEvent::Handle will use
429C<AnyEvent::Handle::TLS_CTX>.
430
431Instead of an object, you can also specify a hash reference with C<< key
432=> value >> pairs. Those will be passed to L<AnyEvent::TLS> to create a
433new TLS context object.
434
435=item on_starttls => $cb->($handle, $success[, $error_message])
436
437This callback will be invoked when the TLS/SSL handshake has finished. If
438C<$success> is true, then the TLS handshake succeeded, otherwise it failed
439(C<on_stoptls> will not be called in this case).
440
441The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
442callback, even when the handshake was not successful.
443
444TLS handshake failures will not cause C<on_error> to be invoked when this
445callback is in effect, instead, the error message will be passed to C<on_starttls>.
446
447Without this callback, handshake failures lead to C<on_error> being
448called as usual.
449
450Note that you cannot just call C<starttls> again in this callback. If you
451need to do that, start an zero-second timer instead whose callback can
452then call C<< ->starttls >> again.
453
454=item on_stoptls => $cb->($handle)
455
456When a SSLv3/TLS shutdown/close notify/EOF is detected and this callback is
457set, then it will be invoked after freeing the TLS session. If it is not,
458then a TLS shutdown condition will be treated like a normal EOF condition
459on the handle.
460
461The session in C<< $handle->{tls} >> can still be examined in this
462callback.
463
464This callback will only be called on TLS shutdowns, not when the
465underlying handle signals EOF.

624 1055
625This function (not method) lets you add your own types to C<push_write>. 1056Sometimes you know you want to close the socket after writing your data
1057before it was actually written. One way to do that is to replace your
1058C<on_drain> handler by a callback that shuts down the socket (and set
1059C<low_water_mark> to C<0>). This method is a shorthand for just that, and
1060replaces the C<on_drain> callback with:
1061
1062 sub { shutdown $_[0]{fh}, 1 } # for push_shutdown
1063
1064This simply shuts down the write side and signals an EOF condition to the
1065the peer.
1066
1067You can rely on the normal read queue and C<on_eof> handling
1068afterwards. This is the cleanest way to close a connection.
1069

1071destroyed after it returns).

1083
1084Instead of one of the predefined types, you can also specify the name of
1085a package. AnyEvent will try to load the package and then expects to find
1086a function named C<anyevent_write_type> inside. If it isn't found, it
1087progressively tries to load the parent package until it either finds the
1088function (good) or runs out of packages (bad).

2044=item $handle->destroy
2045
2046Shuts down the handle object as much as possible - this call ensures that
2047no further callbacks will be invoked and as many resources as possible
2048will be freed. Any method you will call on the handle object after
2049destroying it in this way will be silently ignored (and it will return the
2050empty list).
2051
2052Normally, you can just "forget" any references to an AnyEvent::Handle
2053object and it will simply shut down. This works in fatal error and EOF
2054callbacks, as well as code outside. It does I<NOT> work in a read or write
2055callback, so when you want to destroy the AnyEvent::Handle object from
2056within such an callback. You I<MUST> call C<< ->destroy >> explicitly in
2057that case.
2058
2059Destroying the handle object in this way has the advantage that callbacks
2060will be removed as well, so if those are the only reference holders (as
2061is common), then one doesn't need to do anything special to break any
2062reference cycles.
2063
2064The handle might still linger in the background and write out remaining
2065data, as specified by the C<linger> option, however.

2085
2086Can be useful to decide whether the handle is still valid after some
2087callback possibly destroyed the handle. For example, C<< ->push_write >>,
2088C<< ->starttls >> and other methods can call user callbacks, which in turn
2089can destroy the handle, so work can be avoided by checking sometimes:
2090
2091 $hdl->starttls ("accept");
2092 return if $hdl->destroyed;
2093 $hdl->push_write (...
2094
2095Note that the call to C<push_write> will silently be ignored if the handle
2096has been destroyed, so often you can just ignore the possibility of the

2129
2130=item I C<undef> the AnyEvent::Handle reference inside my callback and
2131still get further invocations!
2132
2133That's because AnyEvent::Handle keeps a reference to itself when handling
2134read or write callbacks.
2135
2136It is only safe to "forget" the reference inside EOF or error callbacks,
2137from within all other callbacks, you need to explicitly call the C<<
2138->destroy >> method.
2139
2140=item I get different callback invocations in TLS mode/Why can't I pause
2141reading?
2142
2143Unlike, say, TCP, TLS connections do not consist of two independent
2144communication channels, one for each direction. Or put differently, the
2145read and write directions are not independent of each other: you cannot
2146write data unless you are also prepared to read, and vice versa.
2147
2148This means that, in TLS mode, you might get C<on_error> or C<on_eof>
2149callback invocations when you are not expecting any read data - the reason
2150is that AnyEvent::Handle always reads in TLS mode.
2151
2152During the connection, you have to make sure that you always have a
2153non-empty read-queue, or an C<on_read> watcher. At the end of the
2154connection (or when you no longer want to use it) you can call the
2155C<destroy> method.
2156
2157=item How do I read data until the other side closes the connection?
2158
2159If you just want to read your data into a perl scalar, the easiest way
2160to achieve this is by setting an C<on_read> callback that does nothing,
2161clearing the C<on_eof> callback and in the C<on_error> callback, the data
2162will be in C<$_[0]{rbuf}>:
2163
2164 $handle->on_read (sub { });
2165 $handle->on_eof (undef);
2166 $handle->on_error (sub {
2167 my $data = delete $_[0]{rbuf};
2168 });
2169
2170The reason to use C<on_error> is that TCP connections, due to latencies
2171and packets loss, might get closed quite violently with an error, when in
2172fact all data has been received.
2173
2174It is usually better to use acknowledgements when transferring data,
2175to make sure the other side hasn't just died and you got the data
2176intact. This is also one reason why so many internet protocols have an
2177explicit QUIT command.
2178
2179=item I don't want to destroy the handle too early - how do I wait until
2180all data has been written?
2181
2182After writing your last bits of data, set the C<on_drain> callback
2183and destroy the handle in there - with the default setting of
2184C<low_water_mark> this will be called precisely when all data has been
2185written to the socket:
2186
2187 $handle->push_write (...);
2188 $handle->on_drain (sub {
2189 warn "all data submitted to the kernel\n";
2190 undef $handle;
2191 });
2192
2193If you just want to queue some data and then signal EOF to the other side,
2194consider using C<< ->push_shutdown >> instead.
2195
2196=item I want to contact a TLS/SSL server, I don't care about security.
2197
2198If your TLS server is a pure TLS server (e.g. HTTPS) that only speaks TLS,
2199connect to it and then create the AnyEvent::Handle with the C<tls>
2200parameter:
2201
2202 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
2203 my ($fh) = @_;
2204
2205 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2206 fh => $fh,
2207 tls => "connect",
2208 on_error => sub { ... };
2209
2210 $handle->push_write (...);
2211 };
2212
2213=item I want to contact a TLS/SSL server, I do care about security.
2214
2215Then you should additionally enable certificate verification, including
2216peername verification, if the protocol you use supports it (see
2217L<AnyEvent::TLS>, C<verify_peername>).
2218
2219E.g. for HTTPS:
2220
2221 tcp_connect $host, $port, sub {
2222 my ($fh) = @_;
2223
2224 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2225 fh => $fh,
2226 peername => $host,
2227 tls => "connect",
2228 tls_ctx => { verify => 1, verify_peername => "https" },
2229 ...
2230
2231Note that you must specify the hostname you connected to (or whatever
2232"peername" the protocol needs) as the C<peername> argument, otherwise no
2233peername verification will be done.
2234
2235The above will use the system-dependent default set of trusted CA
2236certificates. If you want to check against a specific CA, add the
2237C<ca_file> (or C<ca_cert>) arguments to C<tls_ctx>:
2238
2239 tls_ctx => {
2240 verify => 1,
2241 verify_peername => "https",
2242 ca_file => "my-ca-cert.pem",
2243 },

2245=item I want to create a TLS/SSL server, how do I do that?
2246
2247Well, you first need to get a server certificate and key. You have
2248three options: a) ask a CA (buy one, use cacert.org etc.) b) create a
2249self-signed certificate (cheap. check the search engine of your choice,
2250there are many tutorials on the net) or c) make your own CA (tinyca2 is a
2251nice program for that purpose).
2252
2253Then create a file with your private key (in PEM format, see
2254L<AnyEvent::TLS>), followed by the certificate (also in PEM format). The
2255file should then look like this:
2256
2257 -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2258 ...header data
2259 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2260 -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2261
2262 -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
2263 ... lots of base64'y-stuff
2264 -----END CERTIFICATE-----
2265
2266The important bits are the "PRIVATE KEY" and "CERTIFICATE" parts. Then
2267specify this file as C<cert_file>:
2268
2269 tcp_server undef, $port, sub {
2270 my ($fh) = @_;
2271
2272 my $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle
2273 fh => $fh,
2274 tls => "accept",
2275 tls_ctx => { cert_file => "my-server-keycert.pem" },
2276 ...
2277
2278When you have intermediate CA certificates that your clients might not
2279know about, just append them to the C<cert_file>.
