node.tcp.Server

Here is an example of a echo server which listens for connections on port +7000 +

+function Echo (socket) {
+  socket.setEncoding("utf8");
+  socket.onConnect = function () {
+    socket.send("hello\r\n");
+  };
+  socket.onReceive = function (data) {

+server.listen(7000, "localhost");
+
+ +
+
new node.tcp.Server(connection_handler(socket), options={});
+
Creates a new TCP server. + +

connection_handler is a callback which is called + on each connection. It is given one argument: an instance of + node.tcp.Connection. + +

options for now only supports one option: + backlog which should be an integer and describes how large of + a connection backlog the operating system should maintain for this server. + The backlog defaults to 1024. +

+ +
server.listen(port, host=null)
+
Tells the server to listen for TCP connections to port + and host. Note, host is optional. If + host is not specified the server will accept connections to + any IP address on the specified port. +
+ +
server.close()
+
Stops the server from accepting new connections.
+
+ +

node.tcp.Connection

+

This object is used as a TCP client and also as a server-side socket for +node.tcp.Servers. + +

+
new node.tcp.Connection()
+
Creates a new connection object. +
+ +
connection.setEncoding(encoding)
+
Sets the encoding (either "utf8" or "raw") + for data that is received. +
+ +
connection.send(data)
+
sends data on the connection +
+ +
connection.close()
+
Half-closes the connection. I.E. sends a FIN packet. It is possible + the server will still send some data. +
+ +
connection.fullClose()
+
Close both ends of the connection. Data that is received after this + call is responded to with RST packets. If you don't know about this, just use + close(). +
+ +
connection.forceClose()
+
Ensures that no more I/O activity happens on this socket. + Only necessary in case of errors (parse error or so). +
+ +
conneciton.onConnect = function () { };
+
Call once the connection is established.
+ +
conneciton.onReceive = function (data) { };
+
Called when data is received on the connection. Encoding of data is + set by connection.setEncoding(). data will + either be a string, in the case of utf8, or an array of integer in the + case of raw encoding.
+ +
conneciton.onEOF = function () { };
+
Called when the other end of the connection sends a FIN packet. + onReceive will not be called after this. + You should probably just call connection.close() in this + callback. + +
conneciton.onDisconnect = function () { };
+
Called once the connection is fully disconnected.
+ +
conneciton.onError = function () { };
+
Called on an error.
