Net::Async::FastCGI - use FastCGI with IO::Async
Net::Async::FastCGI
As an adapter:
use Net::Async::FastCGI; use IO::Async::Loop; my $loop = IO::Async::Loop->new(); my $fastcgi = Net::Async::FastCGI->new( on_request => sub { my ( $fastcgi, $req ) = @_; # Handle the request here } ); $loop->add( $fastcgi ); $fastcgi->listen( service => 1234, on_resolve_error => sub { die "Cannot resolve - $_[-1]\n" }, on_listen_error => sub { die "Cannot listen - $_[-1]\n" }, ); $loop->loop_forever;
As a subclass:
package MyFastCGIResponder; use base qw( Net::Async::FastCGI ); sub on_request { my $self = shift; my ( $req ) = @_; # Handle the request here } ... use IO::Async::Loop; my $loop = IO::Async::Loop->new(); my $fastcgi; $loop->add( $fastcgi = MyFastCGIResponder->new( service => 1234 ) ); $fastcgi->listen( service => 1234, on_resolve_error => sub { die "Cannot resolve - $_[-1]\n" }, on_listen_error => sub { die "Cannot listen - $_[-1]\n" }, ); $loop->loop_forever;
This module allows a program to respond asynchronously to FastCGI requests, as part of a program based on IO::Async. An object in this class represents a single FastCGI responder that the webserver is configured to communicate with. It can handle multiple outstanding requests at a time, responding to each as data is provided by the program. Individual outstanding requests that have been started but not yet finished, are represented by instances of Net::Async::FastCGI::Request.
The following events are invoked, either using subclass methods or CODE references in parameters:
Invoked when a new FastCGI request is received. It will be passed a new Net::Async::FastCGI::Request object.
The following named parameters may be passed to new or configure:
new
configure
CODE references for on_request event handler.
on_request
Sets the default encoding used by all new requests. If not supplied then UTF-8 will apply.
UTF-8
Start listening for connections on a socket, creating it first if necessary.
This method may be called in either of the following ways. To listen on an existing socket filehandle:
An IO handle referring to a listen-mode socket. This is now deprecated; use the handle key to the new or configure methods instead.
handle
Or, to create the listening socket or sockets:
Port number or service name to listen on.
Optional. If supplied, the hostname will be resolved into a set of addresses, and one listening socket will be created for each address. If not, then all available addresses will be used.
This method may also require on_listen_error or on_resolve_error callbacks for error handling - see IO::Async::Listener for more detail.
on_listen_error
on_resolve_error
The FCGI_GET_VALUES FastCGI request can enquire of the responder the maximum number of connections or requests it can support. Because this module puts no fundamental limit on these values, it will return some arbitrary numbers. These are given in package variables:
FCGI_GET_VALUES
$Net::Async::FastCGI::MAX_CONNS = 1024; $Net::Async::FastCGI::MAX_REQS = 1024;
These variables are provided in case the containing application wishes to make the library return different values in the request. These values are not actually used by the library, other than to fill in the values in response of FCGI_GET_VALUES.
When running a local FastCGI responder, the webserver will create a new INET socket connected to the script's STDIN file handle. To use the socket in this case, it should be passed as the handle argument.
