Net::S...r::Coro(3pm)

🌸 NAME 🌸

Net::Server::Coro — a co-operative multithreaded server using Coro 💖

okay so welcome to the Net::S...r::Coro(3pm) page, bestie!! it's a User Contributed Perl Documentation joint, and it's literally about spinning up a co-operative multithreaded server. yes we're doing coroutines. yes it's cute. let's go 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

use Coro;
use base qw/Net::Server::Coro/;

__PACKAGE__->new->run;

sub process_request {
   ...
   cede;
   ...
}

like, that's it. that's the whole vibe. you use Coro, you inherit from Net::Server::Coro, you call new->run, and inside your process_request you just cede whenever you wanna hand the baton to somebody else 🏃♀️💨

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Net::Server::Coro implements a multithreaded server for the Net::Server architecture, using Coro and Coro::Socket to make all reads and writes non-blocking. no cap. additionally, it supports non-blocking SSL negotiation. iconic behavior honestly 💖

---

👑 METHODS 👑

most of the methods are just inherited from Net::Server — go read that page for the full usage tea. but here's what's special to this one:

🎀 new

creates a new Net::Server::Coro object. it accepts these parameters (on top of all the Net::Server parameters you already know and love):

• server_cert — path to the SSL certificate the server should use. can be a relative path or an absolute path, whichever you vibe with. defaults to certs/server-cert.pem 🌸
• server_key — path to the SSL certificate key the server should use. again, relative or absolute, dealer's choice. defaults to certs/server-key.pem 🔑

🧚 proto_object HOST, PORT, PROTO

wraps up socket creation and turns every socket type into a Net::Server::Proto::Coro object. glow-up for sockets, periodt ✨

🌈 loop

the main loop kicks off a bunch of Coro coroutines:

• one for each listening socket 👂
• one for each active connection. and because these may respawn on a firlay frequent basis, async_pool in Coro is used to maintain a pool of coroutines 🏊♀️
• an AnyEvent infinite wait, which equates to the "run the event loop." ♾️

💜 server_cert [PATH]

gets or sets the path of the SSL certificate used by the server.

💜 server_key [PATH]

gets or sets the path of the SSL key file used by the server.

🍓 DEPENDENCIES 🍓

Coro, AnyEvent, Net::Server

---

💀 BUGS AND LIMITATIONS 💀

the client filehandle, socket, and peer information all use Coro::Specific in order to constrain their info to their own coroutine. so if you try to access them from a different coroutine, you will get possibly unexpected results. that's the warning, bestie, don't do it 🙈

generally, all those of Coro. please report any bugs or feature requests specific to Net::Server::Coro to bug-net-server-coro@rt.cpan.org, or through the web interface at <http://rt.cpan.org>. 🫶
