NAME¶

Mojo::IOLoop::Client - Non-blocking TCP client

SYNOPSIS¶

  use Mojo::IOLoop::Client;
  # Create socket connection
  my $client = Mojo::IOLoop::Client->new;
  $client->on(connect => sub {
    my ($client, $handle) = @_;
    ...
  });
  $client->on(error => sub {
    my ($client, $err) = @_;
    ...
  });
  $client->connect(address => 'example.com', port => 80);
  # Start reactor if necessary
  $client->reactor->start unless $client->reactor->is_running;

DESCRIPTION¶

Mojo::IOLoop::Client opens TCP connections for Mojo::IOLoop.

EVENTS¶

Mojo::IOLoop::Client inherits all events from Mojo::EventEmitter and can emit the following new ones.

connect¶

  $client->on(connect => sub {
    my ($client, $handle) = @_;
    ...
  });

Emitted once the connection is established.

error¶

  $client->on(error => sub {
    my ($client, $err) = @_;
    ...
  });

Emitted if an error occurs on the connection, fatal if unhandled.

ATTRIBUTES¶

Mojo::IOLoop::Client implements the following attributes.

reactor¶

  my $reactor = $client->reactor;
  $client     = $client->reactor(Mojo::Reactor::Poll->new);

Low-level event reactor, defaults to the "reactor" attribute value of the global Mojo::IOLoop singleton.

METHODS¶

Mojo::IOLoop::Client inherits all methods from Mojo::EventEmitter and implements the following new ones.

connect¶

  $client->connect(address => '127.0.0.1', port => 3000);

Open a socket connection to a remote host. Note that TLS support depends on IO::Socket::SSL (1.84+) and IPv6 support on IO::Socket::IP (0.20+). These options are currently available:

address

  address => 'mojolicio.us'
    

Address or host name of the peer to connect to, defaults to "localhost".

handle

  handle => $handle
    

Use an already prepared handle.

local_address

  local_address => '127.0.0.1'
    

Local address to bind to.

port

  port => 80
    

Port to connect to, defaults to 80 or 443 with "tls" option.

socks_address

  socks_address => '127.0.0.1'
    

Address or host name of SOCKS5 proxy server to use for connection.

socks_pass

  socks_pass => 'secr3t'
    

Password to use for SOCKS5 authentication.

socks_port

  socks_port => 9050
    

Port of SOCKS5 proxy server to use for connection.

socks_user

  socks_user => 'sri'
    

Username to use for SOCKS5 authentication.

timeout

  timeout => 15
    

Maximum amount of time in seconds establishing connection may take before getting canceled, defaults to 10.

tls

  tls => 1
    

Enable TLS.

tls_ca

  tls_ca => '/etc/tls/ca.crt'
    

Path to TLS certificate authority file. Also activates hostname verification.

tls_cert

  tls_cert => '/etc/tls/client.crt'
    

Path to the TLS certificate file.

tls_key

  tls_key => '/etc/tls/client.key'
    

Path to the TLS key file.
