HTTP::Daemon(3)                      User Contributed Perl Documentation                     HTTP::Daemon(3)



NAME
       HTTP::Daemon - a simple http server class

SYNOPSIS
         use HTTP::Daemon;
         use HTTP::Status;

         my $d = HTTP::Daemon->new || die;
         print "Please contact me at: URL: <", $d->url, ">\n";
         while (my $c = $d->accept) {
             while (my $r = $c->get_request) {
                 if ($r->method eq 'GET' and $r->uri->path eq "/xyzzy") {
                     # remember, this is *not* recommended practice :-)
                     $c->send_file_response("/etc/passwd");
                 }
                 else {
                     $c->send_error(RC_FORBIDDEN)
                 }
             }
             $c->close;
             undef($c);
         }

DESCRIPTION
       Instances of the "HTTP::Daemon" class are HTTP/1.1 servers that listen on a socket for incoming
       requests. The "HTTP::Daemon" is a subclass of "IO::Socket::INET", so you can perform socket
       operations directly on it too.

       The accept() method will return when a connection from a client is available.  The returned value
       will be an "HTTP::Daemon::ClientConn" object which is another "IO::Socket::INET" subclass.  Calling
       the get_request() method on this object will read data from the client and return an "HTTP::Request"
       object.  The ClientConn object also provide methods to send back various responses.

       This HTTP daemon does not fork(2) for you.  Your application, i.e. the user of the "HTTP::Daemon" is
       responsible for forking if that is desirable.  Also note that the user is responsible for generating
       responses that conform to the HTTP/1.1 protocol.

       The following methods of "HTTP::Daemon" are new (or enhanced) relative to the "IO::Socket::INET" base
       class:

       $d = HTTP::Daemon->new
       $d = HTTP::Daemon->new( %opts )
           The constructor method takes the same arguments as the "IO::Socket::INET" constructor, but unlike
           its base class it can also be called without any arguments.  The daemon will then set up a listen
           queue of 5 connections and allocate some random port number.

           A server that wants to bind to some specific address on the standard HTTP port will be
           constructed like this:

             $d = HTTP::Daemon->new(
                      LocalAddr => 'www.thisplace.com',
                      LocalPort => 80,
                  );

           See IO::Socket::INET for a description of other arguments that can be used configure the daemon
           during construction.

       $c = $d->accept
       $c = $d->accept( $pkg )
       ($c, $peer_addr) = $d->accept
           This method works the same the one provided by the base class, but it returns an
           "HTTP::Daemon::ClientConn" reference by default.  If a package name is provided as argument, then
           the returned object will be blessed into the given class.  It is probably a good idea to make
           that class a subclass of "HTTP::Daemon::ClientConn".

           The accept method will return "undef" if timeouts have been enabled and no connection is made
           within the given time.  The timeout() method is described in IO::Socket.

           In list context both the client object and the peer address will be returned; see the description
           of the accept method IO::Socket for details.

       $d->url
           Returns a URL string that can be used to access the server root.

       $d->product_tokens
           Returns the name that this server will use to identify itself.  This is the string that is sent
           with the "Server" response header.  The main reason to have this method is that subclasses can
           override it if they want to use another product name.

           The default is the string "libwww-perl-daemon/#.##" where "#.##" is replaced with the version
           number of this module.

       The "HTTP::Daemon::ClientConn" is a "IO::Socket::INET" subclass. Instances of this class are returned
       by the accept() method of "HTTP::Daemon".  The following methods are provided:

       $c->get_request
       $c->get_request( $headers_only )
           This method reads data from the client and turns it into an "HTTP::Request" object which is
           returned.  It returns "undef" if reading fails.  If it fails, then the "HTTP::Daemon::ClientConn"
           object ($c) should be discarded, and you should not try call this method again on it.  The
           $c->reason method might give you some information about why $c->get_request failed.

           The get_request() method will normally not return until the whole request has been received from
           the client.  This might not be what you want if the request is an upload of a large file (and
           with chunked transfer encoding HTTP can even support infinite request messages - uploading live
           audio for instance).  If you pass a TRUE value as the $headers_only argument, then get_request()
           will return immediately after parsing the request headers and you are responsible for reading the
           rest of the request content.  If you are going to call $c->get_request again on the same
           connection you better read the correct number of bytes.

       $c->read_buffer
       $c->read_buffer( $new_value )
           Bytes read by $c->get_request, but not used are placed in the read buffer.  The next time
           $c->get_request is called it will consume the bytes in this buffer before reading more data from
           the network connection itself.  The read buffer is invalid after $c->get_request has failed.

           If you handle the reading of the request content yourself you need to empty this buffer before
           you read more and you need to place unconsumed bytes here.  You also need this buffer if you
           implement services like 1_1 Switching Protocols.

           This method always returns the old buffer content and can optionally replace the buffer content
           if you pass it an argument.

       $c->reason
           When $c->get_request returns "undef" you can obtain a short string describing why it happened by
           calling $c->reason.

       $c->proto_ge( $proto )
           Return TRUE if the client announced a protocol with version number greater or equal to the given
           argument.  The $proto argument can be a string like "HTTP/1.1" or just "1.1".

       $c->antique_client
           Return TRUE if the client speaks the HTTP/0.9 protocol.  No status code and no headers should be
           returned to such a client.  This should be the same as !$c->proto_ge("HTTP/1.0").

       $c->head_request
           Return TRUE if the last request was a "HEAD" request.  No content body must be generated for
           these requests.

       $c->force_last_request
           Make sure that $c->get_request will not try to read more requests off this connection.  If you
           generate a response that is not self delimiting, then you should signal this fact by calling this
           method.

           This attribute is turned on automatically if the client announces protocol HTTP/1.0 or worse and
           does not include a "Connection: Keep-Alive" header.  It is also turned on automatically when
           HTTP/1.1 or better clients send the "Connection: close" request header.

       $c->send_status_line
       $c->send_status_line( $code )
       $c->send_status_line( $code, $mess )
       $c->send_status_line( $code, $mess, $proto )
           Send the status line back to the client.  If $code is omitted 200 is assumed.  If $mess is
           omitted, then a message corresponding to $code is inserted.  If $proto is missing the content of
           the $HTTP::Daemon::PROTO variable is used.

       $c->send_crlf
           Send the CRLF sequence to the client.

       $c->send_basic_header
       $c->send_basic_header( $code )
       $c->send_basic_header( $code, $mess )
       $c->send_basic_header( $code, $mess, $proto )
           Send the status line and the "Date:" and "Server:" headers back to the client.  This header is
           assumed to be continued and does not end with an empty CRLF line.

           See the description of send_status_line() for the description of the accepted arguments.

       $c->send_header( $field, $value )
       $c->send_header( $field1, $value1, $field2, $value2, ... )
           Send one or more header lines.

       $c->send_response( $res )
           Write a "HTTP::Response" object to the client as a response.  We try hard to make sure that the
           response is self delimiting so that the connection can stay persistent for further
           request/response exchanges.

           The content attribute of the "HTTP::Response" object can be a normal string or a subroutine
           reference.  If it is a subroutine, then whatever this callback routine returns is written back to
           the client as the response content.  The routine will be called until it return an undefined or
           empty value.  If the client is HTTP/1.1 aware then we will use chunked transfer encoding for the
           response.

       $c->send_redirect( $loc )
       $c->send_redirect( $loc, $code )
       $c->send_redirect( $loc, $code, $entity_body )
           Send a redirect response back to the client.  The location ($loc) can be an absolute or relative
           URL. The $code must be one the redirect status codes, and defaults to "301 Moved Permanently"

       $c->send_error
       $c->send_error( $code )
       $c->send_error( $code, $error_message )
           Send an error response back to the client.  If the $code is missing a "Bad Request" error is
           reported.  The $error_message is a string that is incorporated in the body of the HTML entity
           body.

       $c->send_file_response( $filename )
           Send back a response with the specified $filename as content.  If the file is a directory we try
           to generate an HTML index of it.

       $c->send_file( $filename )
       $c->send_file( $fd )
           Copy the file to the client.  The file can be a string (which will be interpreted as a filename)
           or a reference to an "IO::Handle" or glob.

       $c->daemon
           Return a reference to the corresponding "HTTP::Daemon" object.
