💖 TSACCEPTOR 💖

okay bestie, buckle up, because this is the TSAcceptor page from the Apache Traffic Server manual, section 3ts, and it's lowkey iconic. it's all about the API for Accept objects — the lil' things that make your TSVConns exist in the first place. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

TSAcceptor — Traffic Server API stuff related to Accept objects. that's the whole vibe. 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <ts/ts.h>

TSAcceptor TSAcceptorGet(TSVConn sslp)

TSAcceptor TSAcceptorGetbyID(int id)

int TSAcceptorIDGet(TSAcceptor acceptor)

like, that's it, that's the whole entry point, slay. 🌸

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

okay so here's the tea. Traffic Server lets plugins pull info from an accept object — specifically the one that created a certain TSVConn object — using the APIs listed above. periodt.

an acceptor thread is out here listening for incoming connections, and for every connection it accepts, it creates the virtual connection, aka the TSVConn. main character energy fr fr. 👑

• TSAcceptorGet() — returns the TSAcceptor object that created sslp. it's giving "who's your maker" but make it C. 🫶
• TSAcceptorGetbyID() — returns the TSAcceptor object identified by id. a TSAcceptor represents the acceptor object created by the server. iykyk. ✨
• TSAcceptorIDGet() — returns the Integer number that identifies the acceptor. and here's the cute part: all the cloned TSAcceptor objects will have the same identifying number. they're matching, bestie. 👯
• TSAcceptorCount() — returns the number of TSAcceptor objects created by the server. literally just a headcount. 🔥
