=head1 NAME AnyEvent::Socket - useful IPv4 and IPv6 stuff. =head1 SYNOPSIS use AnyEvent::Socket; tcp_connect "gameserver.deliantra.net", 13327, sub { my ($fh) = @_ or die "gameserver.deliantra.net connect failed: $!"; # enjoy your filehandle }; # a simple tcp server tcp_server undef, 8888, sub { my ($fh, $host, $port) = @_; syswrite $fh, "The internet is full, $host:$port. Go away!\015\012"; }; =head1 DESCRIPTION This module implements various utility functions for handling internet protocol addresses and sockets, in an as transparent and simple way as possible. All functions documented without C prefix are exported by default. =over 4 =cut package AnyEvent::Socket; no warnings; use strict; use Carp (); use Errno (); use Socket qw(AF_INET SOCK_STREAM SOCK_DGRAM SOL_SOCKET SO_REUSEADDR); use AnyEvent (); use AnyEvent::Util qw(guard fh_nonblocking AF_INET6); use AnyEvent::DNS (); use base 'Exporter'; our @EXPORT = qw(parse_ipv4 parse_ipv6 parse_ip format_ip inet_aton tcp_server tcp_connect); our $VERSION = '1.0'; =item $ipn = parse_ipv4 $dotted_quad Tries to parse the given dotted quad IPv4 address and return it in octet form (or undef when it isn't in a parsable format). Supports all forms specified by POSIX (e.g. C<10.0.0.1>, C<10.1>, C<10.0x020304>, C<0x12345678> or C<0377.0377.0377.0377>). =cut sub parse_ipv4($) { $_[0] =~ /^ (?: 0x[0-9a-fA-F]+ | 0[0-7]* | [1-9][0-9]* ) (?:\.

Should support all forms specified by RFC 2373 (and additionally all IPv4 forms supported by parse_ipv4). This function works similarly to C. =cut sub parse_ipv6($) { # quick test to avoid longer processing my $n = $_[0] =~ y/://; return undef if $n < 2 || $n > 8; my ($h, $t) = split /::/, $_[0], 2; unless (defined $t) { ($h, $t) = (undef, $h); } my @h = split /:/, $h; my @t = split /:/, $t; # check for ipv4 tail if (@t && $t[-1]=~ /\./) { return undef if $n > 6; my $ipn = parse_ipv4 pop @t or return undef; push @t, map +(sprintf "%x", $_), unpack "nn", $ipn; } # no :: then we need to have exactly 8 components return undef unless @h + @t == 8 || $_[0] =~ /::/; # now check all parts for validity return undef if grep !/^[0-9a-fA-F]{1,4}$/, @h, @t; # now pad... push @h, 0 while @h + @t < 8; # and done pack "n*", map hex, @h, @t } =item $ipn = parse_ip $text Combines C and C in one function. =cut sub parse_ip($) { &parse_ipv4 || &parse_ipv6 } =item $text = format_ip $ipn Takes either an IPv4 address (4 octets) or and IPv6 address (16 octets) and converts it into textual form. This function works similarly to C, except it automatically detects the address type. =cut sub format_ip; sub format_ip($) { if (4 == length $_[0]) { return join ".", unpack "C4", $_[0] } elsif (16 == length $_[0]) { if (v0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.255.255 eq substr $_[0], 0, 12) { # v4mapped return "::ffff:" . format_ip substr $_[0], 12; } else { my $ip = sprintf "%x:%x:%x:%x:%x:%x:%x:%x", unpack "n8", $_[0]; $ip =~ s/^0:(?:0:)*(0$)?/::/ or $ip =~ s/(:0)+$/::/ or $ip =~ s/(:0)+/:/; return $ip } } else { return undef } } =item inet_aton $name_or_address, $cb->(@addresses) Works similarly to its Socket counterpart, except that it uses a callback. Also, if a host has only an IPv6 address, this might be passed to the callback instead (use the length to detect this - 4 for IPv4, 16 for IPv6). Unlike the L function of the same name, you can get multiple IPv4 and IPv6 addresses as result. =cut sub inet_aton { my ($name, $cb) = @_; if (my $ipn = &parse_ipv4) { $cb->($ipn); } elsif (my $ipn = &parse_ipv6) { $cb->($ipn); } elsif ($name eq "localhost") { # rfc2606 et al. $cb->(v127.0.0.1, v0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.1); } else { require AnyEvent::DNS; # simple, bad suboptimal algorithm AnyEvent::DNS::a ($name, sub { if (@_) { $cb->(map +(parse_ipv4 $_), @_); } else { $cb->(); #AnyEvent::DNS::aaaa ($name, $cb); need inet_pton } }); } } =item $sa = AnyEvent::Socket::pack_sockaddr $port, $host Pack the given port/host combination into a binary sockaddr structure. Handles both IPv4 and IPv6 host addresses. =cut sub pack_sockaddr($$) { if (4 == length $_[1]) { Socket::pack_sockaddr_in $_[0], $_[1] } elsif (16 == length $_[1]) { pack "SnL a16 L", AF_INET6, $_[0], # port 0, # flowinfo $_[1], # addr 0 # scope id } else { Carp::croak "pack_sockaddr: invalid host"; } } =item ($port, $host) = AnyEvent::Socket::unpack_sockaddr $sa Unpack the given binary sockaddr structure (as used by bind, getpeername etc.) into a C<$port, $host> combination.

If both C<$host> and C<$port> are names, then this function will use SRV records to locate the real target(s). In either case, it will create a list of target hosts (e.g. for multihomed hosts or hosts with both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses) and try to connect to each in turn. If the connect is successful, then the C<$connect_cb> will be invoked with the socket file handle (in non-blocking mode) as first and the peer host (as a textual IP address) and peer port as second and third arguments, respectively. The fourth argument is a code reference that you can call if, for some reason, you don't like this connection, which will cause C to try the next one (or call your callback without any arguments if there are no more connections). In most cases, you can simply ignore this argument. $cb->($filehandle, $host, $port, $retry) If the connect is unsuccessful, then the C<$connect_cb> will be invoked without any arguments and C<$!> will be set appropriately (with C indicating a DNS resolution failure). The file handle is perfect for being plugged into L, but can be used as a normal perl file handle as well. Unless called in void context, C returns a guard object that will automatically abort connecting when it gets destroyed (it does not do anything to the socket after the connect was successful). Sometimes you need to "prepare" the socket before connecting, for example, to C it to some port, or you want a specific connect timeout that is lower than your kernel's default timeout. In this case you can specify a second callback, C<$prepare_cb>. It will be called with the file handle in not-yet-connected state as only argument and must return the connection timeout value (or C<0>, C or the empty list to indicate the default timeout is to be used). Note that the socket could be either a IPv4 TCP socket or an IPv6 TCP socket (although only IPv4 is currently supported by this module). Simple Example: connect to localhost on port 22. tcp_connect localhost => 22, sub { my $fh = shift or die "unable to connect: $!"; # do something }; Complex Example: connect to www.google.com on port 80 and make a simple GET request without much error handling. Also limit the connection timeout to 15 seconds. tcp_connect "www.google.com", "http", sub { my ($fh) = @_ or die "unable to connect: $!"; my $handle; # avoid direct assignment so on_eof has it in scope. $handle = new AnyEvent::Handle fh => $fh, on_eof => sub { undef $handle; # keep it alive till eof warn "done.\n"; }; $handle->push_write ("GET / HTTP/1.0\015\012\015\012"); $handle->push_read_line ("\015\012\015\012", sub { my ($handle, $line) = @_; # print response header print "HEADER\n$line\n\nBODY\n"; $handle->on_read (sub { # print response body print $_[0]->rbuf; $_[0]->rbuf = ""; }); }); }, sub { my ($fh) = @_; # could call $fh->bind etc. here 15 }; =cut sub tcp_connect($$$;$) { my ($host, $port, $connect, $prepare) = @_; # see http://cr.yp.to/docs/connect.html for some background my %state = ( fh => undef ); # name resolution AnyEvent::DNS::addr $host, $port, 0, 0, 0, sub { my @target = @_; $state{next} = sub { return unless exists $state{fh}; my $target = shift @target or do { %state = (); return $connect->(); }; my ($domain, $type, $proto, $sockaddr) = @$target; # socket creation socket $state{fh}, $domain, $type, $proto or return $state{next}(); fh_nonblocking $state{fh}, 1; # prepare and optional timeout if ($prepare) { my $timeout = $prepare->($state{fh}); $state{to} = AnyEvent->timer (after => $timeout, cb => sub { $! = &Errno::ETIMEDOUT; $state{next}(); }) if $timeout; } # called when the connect was successful, which, # in theory, could be the case immediately (but never is in practise) my $connected = sub { delete $state{ww}; delete $state{to}; # we are connected, or maybe there was an error if (my $sin = getpeername $state{fh}) { my ($port, $host) = unpack_sockaddr $sin; my $guard = guard { %state = (); }; $connect->($state{fh}, format_ip $host, $port, sub { $guard->cancel; $state{next}(); }); } else { # dummy read to fetch real error code sysread $state{fh}, my $buf, 1 if $! == &Errno::ENOTCONN; $state{next}(); } }; # now connect if (connect $state{fh}, $sockaddr) { $connected->(); } elsif ($! == &Errno::EINPROGRESS || $! == &Errno::EWOULDBLOCK) { # EINPROGRESS is POSIX $state{ww} = AnyEvent->io (fh => $state{fh}, poll => 'w', cb => $connected); } else { %state = (); $connect->(); } }; $! = &Errno::ENXIO; $state{next}(); }; defined wantarray && guard { %state = () } } =item $guard = tcp_server $host, $port, $accept_cb[, $prepare_cb] Create and bind a TCP socket to the given host, and port, set the SO_REUSEADDR flag and call C. C<$host> must be an IPv4 or IPv6 address (or C, in which case it binds either to C<0> or to C<::>, depending on whether IPv4 or IPv6 is the preferred protocol). To bind to the IPv4 wildcard address, use C<0>, to bind to the IPv6 wildcard address, use C<::>. The port is specified by C<$port>, which must be either a service name or a numeric port number (or C<0> or C, in which case an ephemeral port will be used). For each new connection that could be Ced, call the C<< $accept_cb->($fh, $host, $port) >> with the file handle (in non-blocking mode) as first and the peer host and port as second and third arguments (see C for details). Croaks on any errors it can detect before the listen. If called in non-void context, then this function returns a guard object whose lifetime it tied to the TCP server: If the object gets destroyed, the server will be stopped (but existing accepted connections will continue). If you need more control over the listening socket, you can provide a C<< $prepare_cb->($fh, $host, $port) >>, which is called just before the C call, with the listen file handle as first argument, and IP address and port number of the local socket endpoint as second and third arguments. It should return the length of the listen queue (or C<0> for the default). Example: bind on some TCP port on the local machine and tell each client to go away. tcp_server undef, undef, sub { my ($fh, $host, $port) = @_; syswrite $fh, "The internet is full, $host:$port. Go away!\015\012"; }, sub { my ($fh, $thishost, $thisport) = @_; warn "bound to $thishost, port $thisport\n"; }; =cut sub tcp_server($$$;$) { my ($host, $port, $accept, $prepare) = @_; $host = $AnyEvent::PROTOCOL{ipv4} > $AnyEvent::PROTOCOL{ipv6} && AF_INET6 ?
