class EventMachine::Connection

EventMachine::Connection is a class that is instantiated by EventMachine's processing loop whenever a new connection is created. (New connections can be either initiated locally to a remote server or accepted locally from a remote client.) When a Connection object is instantiated, it mixes in the functionality contained in the user-defined module specified in calls to {EventMachine.connect} or {EventMachine.start_server}. User-defined handler modules may redefine any or all of the standard methods defined here, as well as add arbitrary additional code that will also be mixed in.

EventMachine manages one object inherited from EventMachine::Connection (and containing the mixed-in user code) for every network connection that is active at any given time. The event loop will automatically call methods on EventMachine::Connection objects whenever specific events occur on the corresponding connections, as described below.

This class is never instantiated by user code, and does not publish an initialize method. The instance methods of EventMachine::Connection which may be called by the event loop are:

All of the other instance methods defined here are called only by user code.

Public Instance Methods

close_connection(after_writing = false) click to toggle source

#close_connection is called only by user code, and never by the event loop. You may call this method against a connection object in any callback handler, whether or not the callback was made against the connection you want to close. #close_connection schedules the connection to be closed at the next available opportunity within the event loop. You may not assume that the connection is closed when #close_connection returns. In particular, the framework will callback the unbind method for the particular connection at a point shortly after you call close_connection. You may assume that the unbind callback will take place sometime after your call to #close_connection completes. In other words, the unbind callback will not re-enter your code “inside” of your call to close_connection. However, it's not guaranteed that a future version of EventMachine will not change this behavior.

{#close_connection} will *silently discard* any outbound data which you have sent to the connection using {EventMachine::Connection#send_data} but which has not yet been sent across the network. If you want to avoid this behavior, use {EventMachine::Connection#close_connection_after_writing}.

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 265
def close_connection after_writing = false
  EventMachine::close_connection @signature, after_writing
end
close_connection_after_writing() click to toggle source

A variant of {#close_connection}. All of the descriptive comments given for #close_connection also apply to #close_connection_after_writing, *with one exception*: if the connection has outbound data sent using send_dat but which has not yet been sent across the network, #close_connection_after_writing will schedule the connection to be closed after all of the outbound data has been safely written to the remote peer.

Depending on the amount of outgoing data and the speed of the network, considerable time may elapse between your call to #close_connection_after_writing and the actual closing of the socket (at which time the unbind callback will be called by the event loop). During this time, you *may not* call #send_data to transmit additional data (that is, the connection is closed for further writes). In very rare cases, you may experience a #receive_data callback after your call to {#close_connection_after_writing}, depending on whether incoming data was in the process of being received on the connection at the moment when you called {#close_connection_after_writing}. Your protocol handler must be prepared to properly deal with such data (probably by ignoring it).

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 302
def close_connection_after_writing
  close_connection true
end
comm_inactivity_timeout() click to toggle source

#comm_inactivity_timeout returns the current value (float in seconds) of the inactivity-timeout property of network-connection and datagram-socket objects. A nonzero value indicates that the connection or socket will automatically be closed if no read or write activity takes place for at least that number of seconds. A zero value (the default) specifies that no automatic timeout will take place.

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 593
def comm_inactivity_timeout
  EventMachine::get_comm_inactivity_timeout @signature
end
comm_inactivity_timeout=(value) click to toggle source

Allows you to set the inactivity-timeout property for a network connection or datagram socket. Specify a non-negative float value in seconds. If the value is greater than zero, the connection or socket will automatically be closed if no read or write activity takes place for at least that number of seconds. Specify a value of zero to indicate that no automatic timeout should take place. Zero is the default value.

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 603
def comm_inactivity_timeout= value
  EventMachine::set_comm_inactivity_timeout @signature, value.to_f
end
Also aliased as: set_comm_inactivity_timeout
connection_completed() click to toggle source

Called by the event loop when a remote TCP connection attempt completes successfully. You can expect to get this notification after calls to {EventMachine.connect}. Remember that EventMachine makes remote connections asynchronously, just as with any other kind of network event. This method is intended primarily to assist with network diagnostics. For normal protocol handling, use post_init to perform initial work on a new connection (such as sending initial set of data). {Connection#post_init} will always be called. This method will only be called in case of a successful completion. A connection attempt which fails will result a call to {Connection#unbind} after the failure.

@see #post_init @see #unbind @see file:docs/GettingStarted.md EventMachine tutorial

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 362
def connection_completed
end
detach() click to toggle source

Removes given connection from the event loop. The connection's socket remains open and its file descriptor number is returned.

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 271
def detach
  EventMachine::detach_fd @signature
end
error?() click to toggle source

Returns true if the connection is in an error state, false otherwise.

In general, you can detect the occurrence of communication errors or unexpected disconnection by the remote peer by handing the {#unbind} method. In some cases, however, it's useful to check the status of the connection using {#error?} before attempting to send data. This function is synchronous but it will return immediately without blocking.

@return [Boolean] true if the connection is in an error state, false otherwise

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 339
def error?
  errno = EventMachine::report_connection_error_status(@signature)
  case errno
  when 0
    false
  when -1
    true
  else
    EventMachine::ERRNOS[errno]
  end
end
get_idle_time() click to toggle source

end
get_peer_cert() click to toggle source

If [TLS](en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security) is active on the connection, returns the remote [X509 certificate](en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X.509) as a string, in the popular [PEM format](en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Privacy_Enhanced_Mail). This can then be used for arbitrary validation of a peer's certificate in your code.

This should be called in/after the {#ssl_handshake_completed} callback, which indicates that SSL/TLS is active. Using this callback is important, because the certificate may not be available until the time it is executed. Using post_init or connection_completed is not adequate, because the SSL handshake may still be taking place.

This method will return `nil` if:

end
get_peername() click to toggle source

This method is used with stream-connections to obtain the identity of the remotely-connected peer. If a peername is available, this method returns a sockaddr structure. The method returns nil if no peername is available. You can use Socket.unpack_sockaddr_in and its variants to obtain the values contained in the peername structure returned from get_peername.

@example How to get peer IP address and port with EventMachine

require 'socket'

pending_connect_timeout() click to toggle source

The duration after which a TCP connection in the connecting state will fail. It is important to distinguish this value from {EventMachine::Connection#comm_inactivity_timeout}, which looks at how long since data was passed on an already established connection. The value is a float in seconds.

@return [Float] The duration after which a TCP connection in the connecting state will fail, in seconds.

Also aliased as: set_pending_connect_timeout
post_init() click to toggle source

Called by the event loop immediately after the network connection has been established, and before resumption of the network loop. This method is generally not called by user code, but is called automatically by the event loop. The base-class implementation is a no-op. This is a very good place to initialize instance variables that will be used throughout the lifetime of the network connection.

@see connection_completed @see unbind @see send_data @see receive_data

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 81

called when the reactor finished proxying all of the requested bytes.

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 224

end
proxy_incoming_to(conn,bufsize=0) click to toggle source

#proxy_incoming_to is called only by user code. It sets up a low-level proxy relay for all data inbound for this connection, to the connection given as the argument. This is essentially just a helper method for enable_proxy.

@see EventMachine.enable_proxy

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 232
def proxy_incoming_to(conn,bufsize=0)
  EventMachine::enable_proxy(self, conn, bufsize)
end
proxy_target_unbound() click to toggle source

Called by the reactor after attempting to relay incoming data to a descriptor (set as a proxy target descriptor with {EventMachine.enable_proxy}) that has already been closed.

@see EventMachine.enable_proxy

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 219
def proxy_target_unbound
end
receive_data(data) click to toggle source

Called by the event loop whenever data has been received by the network connection. It is never called by user code. {#receive_data} is called with a single parameter, a String containing the network protocol data, which may of course be binary. You will generally redefine this method to perform your own processing of the incoming data.

Here's a key point which is essential to understanding the event-driven programming model: EventMachine knows absolutely nothing about the protocol which your code implements. You must not make any assumptions about the size of the incoming data packets, or about their alignment on any particular intra-message or PDU boundaries (such as line breaks). #receive_data can and will send you arbitrary chunks of data, with the only guarantee being that the data is presented to your code in the order it was collected from the network. Don't even assume that the chunks of data will correspond to network packets, as EventMachine can and will coalesce several incoming packets into one, to improve performance. The implication for your code is that you generally will need to implement some kind of a state machine in your redefined implementation of receive_data. For a better understanding of this, read through the examples of specific protocol handlers in EventMachine::Protocols

The base-class implementation (which will be invoked only if you didn't override it in your protocol handler) simply prints incoming data packet size to stdout.

@param [String] data Opaque incoming data. @note Depending on the protocol, buffer sizes and OS networking stack configuration, incoming data may or may not be “a complete message”.

It is up to this handler to detect content boundaries to determine whether all the content (for example, full HTTP request)
has been received and can be processed.

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 705
def resume
  EventMachine::resume_connection @signature
end
send_data(data) click to toggle source

Call this method to send data to the remote end of the network connection. It takes a single String argument, which may contain binary data. Data is buffered to be sent at the end of this event loop tick (cycle).

When used in a method that is event handler (for example, {#post_init} or {#connection_completed}, it will send data to the other end of the connection that generated the event. You can also call {#send_data} to write to other connections. For more information see The Chat Server Example in the {file:docs/GettingStarted.md EventMachine tutorial}.

If you want to send some data and then immediately close the connection, make sure to use {#close_connection_after_writing} instead of {#close_connection}.

@param [String] data Data to send asynchronously

@see file:docs/GettingStarted.md EventMachine tutorial @see #receive_data @see #post_init @see #unbind

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 324

  size ||= data.size
  EventMachine::send_data @signature, data, size
end
send_datagram(data, recipient_address, recipient_port) click to toggle source

Sends UDP messages.

This method may be called from any Connection object that refers to an open datagram socket (see EventMachine#open_datagram_socket). The method sends a UDP (datagram) packet containing the data you specify, to a remote peer specified by the IP address and port that you give as parameters to the method. Observe that you may send a zero-length packet (empty string). However, you may not send an arbitrarily-large data packet because your operating system will enforce a platform-specific limit on the size of the outbound packet. (Your kernel will respond in a platform-specific way if you send an overlarge packet: some will send a truncated packet, some will complain, and some will silently drop your request). On LANs, it's usually OK to send datagrams up to about 4000 bytes in length, but to be really safe, send messages smaller than the Ethernet-packet size (typically about 1400 bytes). Some very restrictive WANs will either drop or truncate packets larger than about 500 bytes.

@param [String] data Data to send asynchronously @param [String] recipient_address IP address of the recipient @param [String] recipient_port Port of the recipient

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 518

send_file_data(filename) click to toggle source

Like {EventMachine::Connection#send_data}, this sends data to the remote end of the network connection. {EventMachine::Connection#send_file_data} takes a filename as an argument, though, and sends the contents of the file, in one chunk.

end
ssl_handshake_completed() click to toggle source

Called by EventMachine when the SSL/TLS handshake has been completed, as a result of calling start_tls to initiate SSL/TLS on the connection.

This callback exists because {#post_init} and {#connection_completed} are *not* reliable for indicating when an SSL/TLS connection is ready to have its certificate queried for.

@see get_peer_cert

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 127
def ssl_handshake_completed
end
ssl_verify_peer(cert) click to toggle source

Called by EventMachine when :verify_peer => true has been passed to {#start_tls}. It will be called with each certificate in the certificate chain provided by the remote peer.

The cert will be passed as a String in PEM format, the same as in {#get_peer_cert}. It is up to user defined code to perform a check on the certificates. The return value from this callback is used to accept or deny the peer. A return value that is not nil or false triggers acceptance. If the peer is not accepted, the connection will be subsequently closed.

@example This server always accepts all peers

module AcceptServer
  def post_init
    start_tls(:verify_peer => true)
  end

  def ssl_verify_peer(cert)
    true
  end

  def ssl_handshake_completed
    $server_handshake_completed = true
  end
end

@example This server never accepts any peers

module DenyServer
  def post_init
    start_tls(:verify_peer => true)
  end

  def ssl_verify_peer(cert)
    # Do not accept the peer. This should now cause the connection to shut down
    # without the SSL handshake being completed.
    false
  end

  def ssl_handshake_completed
    $server_handshake_completed = true
  end
end

@see start_tls

# File lib/em/connection.rb, line 174
def ssl_verify_peer(cert)
end
start_tls(args={}) click to toggle source

Call {#start_tls} at any point to initiate TLS encryption on connected streams. The method is smart enough to know whether it should perform a server-side or a client-side handshake. An appropriate place to call {#start_tls} is in your redefined {#post_init} method, or in the {#connection_completed} handler for an outbound connection.

@option args [String] :cert_chain_file (nil) local path of a readable file that contants a chain of X509 certificates in

the [PEM format](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Privacy_Enhanced_Mail),
with the most-resolved certificate at the top of the file, successive intermediate
certs in the middle, and the root (or CA) cert at the bottom.

@option args [String] :private_key_file (nil) local path of a readable file that must contain a private key in the [PEM format](en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Privacy_Enhanced_Mail).

@option args [Boolean] :verify_peer (false) indicates whether a server should request a certificate from a peer, to be verified by user code.

If true, the {#ssl_verify_peer} callback on the {EventMachine::Connection} object is called with each certificate
in the certificate chain provided by the peer. See documentation on {#ssl_verify_peer} for how to use this.

@option args [Boolean] :use_tls (false) indicates whether TLS or SSL must be offered to the peer. If true TLS is used, SSL otherwise.

@option args [String] :cipher_list (“ALL:!ADH:!LOW:!EXP:!DES-CBC3-SHA:@STRENGTH”) indicates the available SSL cipher values.

@example Using TLS with EventMachine

Open a file on the filesystem and send it to the remote peer. This returns an object of type {EventMachine::Deferrable}. The object's callbacks will be executed on the reactor main thread when the file has been completely scheduled for transmission to the remote peer. Its errbacks will be called in case of an error (such as file-not-found). This method employs various strategies to achieve the fastest possible performance, balanced against minimum consumption of memory.

Warning: this feature has an implicit dependency on an outboard extension, evma_fastfilereader. You must install this extension in order to use {#stream_file_data} with files larger than a certain size (currently 8192 bytes).

@option args [Boolean] :http_chunks (false) If true, this method will stream the file data in a format

compatible with the HTTP chunked-transfer encoding

@param [String] filename Local path of the file to stream @param [Hash] args Options

unbind() click to toggle source

called by the framework whenever a connection (either a server or client connection) is closed. The close can occur because your code intentionally closes it (using {#close_connection} and {#close_connection_after_writing}), because the remote peer closed the connection, or because of a network error. You may not assume that the network connection is still open and able to send or receive data when the callback to unbind is made. This is intended only to give you a chance to clean up associations your code may have made to the connection object while it was open.

If you want to detect which peer has closed the connection, you can override {#close_connection} in your protocol handler and set an @ivar.

@example Overriding #close_connection to distinguish connections closed on our side

class MyProtocolHandler < EventMachine::Connection

  # ...

  def close_connection(*args)
    @intentionally_closed_connection = true
    super(*args)
  end

  def unbind
    if @intentionally_closed_connection
      # ...
    end
  end

  # ...

end
