NAME

RPC::Serialized::Server::UCSPI::TCP - RPC server managed by DJB's ucspi-tpc

VERSION

version 1.123630

SYNOPSIS

use RPC::Serialized::Server::UCSPI::TCP;

# set up the new server
my $s = RPC::Serialized::Server::UCSPI::TCP->new;

# begin a single-process loop handling requests on STDIN and STDOUT
$s->process;

DESCRIPTION

This module provides an extension to RPC::Serialized which enhances support for Dan Bernstein's ucspi-tcp network services system.

In ucspi-land, servers communicate using Standard Input and Standard Output, so things are very simple. His services system takes care of setting up a listening network socket, and forking off child handlers. Those child handlers are simple setup scripts just like that shown in the "SYNOPSIS" above.

Within the examples directory of this distribution, there is an example tcpserver startup script which uses this module.

There is no additional server configuration necessary, although you can of course supply arguments to new() as described in the RPC::Serialized manual page.

This module provides support for using the TCPREMOTEINFO environment variable in the call authorization phase of RPC::Serialized. Although not well documented, this is fully working and there are example scripts in this distribution.

THANKS

This module is a derivative of YAML::RPC, written by pod and Ray Miller, at the University of Oxford Computing Services. Without their brilliant creation this system would not exist.
