Version 0.84

our $VERSION = '0.84';
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use AnyEvent::HTTPD;
my $httpd = AnyEvent::HTTPD->new (port => 9090);
$httpd->reg_cb (
'/' => sub {
my ($httpd, $req) = @_;
$req->respond ({ content => ['text/html',
"Hello World!
"
. "another test page"
. ""
]});
},
'/test' => sub {
my ($httpd, $req) = @_;
$req->respond ({ content => ['text/html',
"Test page
"
. "Back to the main page"
. ""
]});
},
);
$httpd->run; # making a AnyEvent condition variable would also work
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module provides a simple HTTPD for serving simple web application
interfaces. It's completly event based and independend from any event loop
by using the L module.
It's HTTP implementation is a bit hacky, so before using this module make sure
it works for you and the expected deployment. Feel free to improve the HTTP
support and send in patches!
The documentation is currently only the source code, but next versions of this
module will be better documented hopefully. See also the C directory
in the L distribution for basic starting points.
=head1 FEATURES
=over 4
=item * support for GET and POST requests.
=item * support for HTTP 1.0 keep-alive.
=item * processing of C and C (C) encoded form parameters.
=item * support for streaming responses.
=item * with version 0.8 no more dependend on L for L.
=back
=head1 METHODS
The L class inherits directly from
L which inherits the event callback interface from
L.
Event callbacks can be registered via the L API (see the
documentation of L for details).
For a list of available events see below in the I section.
=over 4
=item B
This is the constructor for a L object.
The C<%args> hash may contain one of these key/value pairs:
=over 4
=item host => $host
The TCP address of the HTTP server will listen on. Usually 0.0.0.0 (the
default), for a public server, or 127.0.0.1 for a local server.
=item port => $port
The TCP port the HTTP server will listen on. If undefined some
free port will be used. You can get it via the C method.
=item request_timeout => $seconds
This will set the request timeout for connections.
The default value is 60 seconds.
=item backlog => $int
The backlog argument defines the maximum length the queue of pending
connections may grow to. The real maximum queue length will be 1.5 times more
than the value specified in the backlog argument.
See also C.
By default will be set by LC<::tcp_server> to C<128>.
=item connection_class => $class
This is a special parameter that you can use to pass your own connection class
to L. This is only of interest to you if you plan
to subclass L.
=item request_class => $class
This is a special parameter that you can use to pass your own request class
to L. This is only of interest to you if you plan
to subclass L.

last if $self->{req_stop};
}
}
=item B
Returns the port number this server is bound to.
=item B
Returns the host/ip this server is bound to.
=item B
When the server walks the request URI path upwards you can stop
the walk by calling this method. You can even stop further handling
after the C event.
Example:
$httpd->reg_cb (
'/test' => sub {
my ($httpd, $req) = @_;
# ...
$httpd->stop_request; # will prevent that the callback below is called
},
'' => sub { # this one wont be called by a request to '/test'
my ($httpd, $req) = @_;
# ...
}
);
=cut
sub stop_request {
my ($self) = @_;
$self->{req_stop} = 1;
}
=item B
This method is a simplification of the C condition variable
idiom. You can use it instead of writing:
my $cvar = AnyEvent->condvar;
$cvar->wait;
=cut
sub run {
my ($self) = @_;
$self->{condvar} = AnyEvent->condvar;
$self->{condvar}->wait;
}
=item B
This will stop the HTTP server and return from the
C method B
=cut
sub stop { $_[0]->{condvar}->broadcast if $_[0]->{condvar} }
=back
=head1 EVENTS
Every request goes to a specific URL. After a (GET or POST) request is
received the URL's path segments are walked down and for each segment
a event is generated. An example:
If the URL '/test/bla.jpg' is requestes following events will be generated:
'/test/bla.jpg' - the event for the last segment
'/test' - the event for the 'test' segment
'' - the root event of each request
To actually handle any request you just have to register a callback for the event
name with the empty string. To handle all requests in the '/test' directory
you have to register a callback for the event with the name C<'/test'>.
Here is an example how to register an event for the example URL above:
$httpd->reg_cb (
'/test/bla.jpg' => sub {
my ($httpd, $req) = @_;
$req->respond ([200, 'ok', { 'Content-Type' => 'text/html' }, 'Test
' }]);
}
);
See also C about stopping the walk of the path segments.
The first argument to such a callback is always the L object
itself. The second argument (C<$req>) is the L
object for this request. It can be used to get the (possible) form parameters
for this request or the transmitted content and respond to the request.
Along with the above mentioned events these events are also provided:
=over 4
=item request => $req
Every request also emits the C event, with the same arguments and
semantics as the above mentioned path request events. You can use this to
implement your own request multiplexing. You can use C to stop
any further processing of the request as the C event is the first
thing that is executed for an incoming request.
=item client_connected => $host, $port
=item client_disconnected => $host, $port
These events are emitted whenever a client coming from C<$host:$port> connects
to your server or is disconnected from it.
=back
=head1 CACHING
Any response from the HTTP server will have C set to C and
also the C header set to the C header. Meaning: Caching is disabled.
If you need caching or would like to have it you can send me a mail or even
better: a patch :)
