Protoco...::Server(3)

💖 Protocol::SOCKS::Server — server support for SOCKS protocol 💖

okay bestie, so this is Protocol::SOCKS::Server, a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation manual, section 3 (that's your library-calls section, iykyk). Let's get into it ✨

---

🌸 VERSION 🌸

Version 0.003 — she's a specific girl, don't forget it 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This gives you an abstraction for dealing with the server side of the SOCKS protocol. That's it, that's the whole vibe — it's the server-side wrapper so you don't have to rawdog the protocol yourself. No cap 🫶

✨ METHODS ✨

🎀 completion

Returns the completion future.

🎀 auth

Returns the auth Future.

🎀 auth_methods

Returns the list of auth methods we can handle.

🎀 init_packet

Initial client packet.

🎀 on_read

🎀 init

Resolves with version and auth method when connection has been established. (Notice: when connection has been established — that's the whole condition, don't @ me 😌)

🎀 parse_request
