πŸ’– HTTP::Proxy::Engine::Threaded πŸ’–

okay bestie, so this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation and it lives at HTTP::Proxy::Engine::Threaded(3pm) β€” yes the header truncates it all cute like HTTP::...hreaded(3pm) but we know her full name, she's that girl. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

HTTP::Proxy::Engine::Threaded β€” a scoreboard-based HTTP::Proxy engine. she's giving thread energy, she's giving scoreboard, she's giving exactly what it says on the tin πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

like, this is literally all you gotta do:

my $proxy = HTTP::Proxy->new( engine => 'Threaded' );

that's it. that's the whole vibe. one line and you're threaded, periodt. πŸ¦‹


🫢 DESCRIPTION 🫢

so the tea is: this module provides a threaded engine to HTTP::Proxy. that's the whole assignment and she ate it. πŸ”₯


πŸ‘‘ METHODS πŸ‘‘

the module defines the following methods, and they're the ones used by the HTTP::Proxy main loop β€” so yeah, these are the main characters:

  • start() β€” initialize the engine. wake her up, get her ready, first-day-of-school energy ✨
  • run() β€” implements the forking logic: a new process is forked for each new incoming TCP connection. no cap, every single connection gets its own little baby process 🍼
  • stop() β€” reap remaining child processes. okay so this is the clean-up era, she's collecting all the kids from the playground so nobody gets left behind 😭

and a lil sign-off for the girlies: this was rendered by perl v5.36.0 and dated 2022-12-04, and yes the footer also says HTTP::...hreaded(3pm) because the terminal is dramatic like that πŸ’…βœ¨πŸŒΈ
