NAME

IO::Mux::HTTP::Server - IO::Mux and LWP based HTTP server

INHERITANCE

IO::Mux::HTTP::Server
  is a IO::Mux::Service::TCP
  is a IO::Mux::Handler::Service
  is a IO::Mux::Handler

SYNOPSIS

my $mux  = IO::Mux::Poll->new;
my $conn = IO::Mux::HTTP::Server->new(handler => \&h);
$mux->add($conn);
$mux->loop;

DESCRIPTION

This module implements a basic HTTP connection handler on a socket, using IO::Mux as basis. This server takes all requests in a single process, because it is shaped around a select or poll system call: multiple clients send data to a single process in parallel.

The server understands protocols HTTP version 0.9, 1.0, and 1.1. See HTTP::Server::Multiplex for a extended server implementation, mimicing Apache. The connection logic is implemented in IO::Mux::HTTP::Service.

See the examples/ directory in the distribution for a detailed template for a complete HTTP server.

METHODS

Constructors

IO::Mux::HTTP::Server->new(OPTIONS)

One object will accept connections on one socket. When you have more sockets to listen on, each needs its own object.

You may extend the connection implementation.

The CODE points to the routine which get called when a new connection gets initialized.
