## Detailed Description

This group of functions is applied to an Ecore_Con_Server object.

Functions that operate on Ecore server objects.

It doesn't mean that they should be used in the server application, but on the server object. In fact, most of them should be used in the client application, when retrieving information or sending data.

Setting up a server is very simple: you just need to start it with ecore_con_server_add() and setup some callbacks to the events ECORE_CON_EVENT_CLIENT_ADD, ECORE_CON_EVENT_CLIENT_DEL and ECORE_CON_EVENT_CLIENT_DATA, that will be called when a client is communicating with the server:

if (!(svr = ecore_con_server_add(ECORE_CON_REMOTE_TCP, "127.0.0.1", 8080, NULL)))
exit(1);
ecore_event_handler_add(ECORE_CON_EVENT_CLIENT_ADD, _add_cb, NULL);
ecore_event_handler_add(ECORE_CON_EVENT_CLIENT_DEL, _del_cb, NULL);
ecore_event_handler_add(ECORE_CON_EVENT_CLIENT_DATA, _data_cb, NULL);
ecore_main_loop_begin();
ECORE_CON_EVENT_CLIENT_ADD
ECORE_CON_API int ECORE_CON_EVENT_CLIENT_ADD
A client has connected to the server.
Definition: ecore_con_legacy.c:157
ECORE_CON_EVENT_CLIENT_DEL
ECORE_CON_API int ECORE_CON_EVENT_CLIENT_DEL
A client has disconnected from the server.
Definition: ecore_con_legacy.c:158
ECORE_CON_EVENT_CLIENT_DATA
ECORE_CON_API int ECORE_CON_EVENT_CLIENT_DATA
A client connected to the server has sent data.
Definition: ecore_con_legacy.c:166
ecore_con_server_add
ECORE_CON_API Ecore_Con_Server * ecore_con_server_add(Ecore_Con_Type type, const char *name, int port, const void *data)
Creates a server to listen for connections.
Definition: ecore_con_legacy.c:1696
ecore_event_handler_add
Ecore_Event_Handler * ecore_event_handler_add(int type, Ecore_Event_Handler_Cb func, const void *data)
Adds an event handler.
Definition: ecore_events.c:13
ecore_main_loop_begin
void ecore_main_loop_begin(void)
Runs the application main loop.
Definition: ecore_main.c:1311

The function ecore_con_server_connect() can be used to write a client that connects to a server. The resulting code will be very similar to the server code:

if (!(svr = ecore_con_server_connect(ECORE_CON_REMOTE_TCP, "127.0.0.1", 8080, NULL)))
exit(1);
ecore_event_handler_add(ECORE_CON_EVENT_SERVER_ADD, _add_cb, NULL);
ecore_event_handler_add(ECORE_CON_EVENT_SERVER_DEL, _del_cb, NULL);
ecore_event_handler_add(ECORE_CON_EVENT_SERVER_DATA, _data_cb, NULL);
ecore_main_loop_begin();
ECORE_CON_EVENT_SERVER_ADD
ECORE_CON_API int ECORE_CON_EVENT_SERVER_ADD
A server was created.
Definition: ecore_con_legacy.c:160
ECORE_CON_EVENT_SERVER_DEL
ECORE_CON_API int ECORE_CON_EVENT_SERVER_DEL
A server connection was lost.
Definition: ecore_con_legacy.c:154
ECORE_CON_EVENT_SERVER_DATA
ECORE_CON_API int ECORE_CON_EVENT_SERVER_DATA
A server connection object has data.
Definition: ecore_con_legacy.c:161
ecore_con_server_connect
ECORE_CON_API Ecore_Con_Server * ecore_con_server_connect(Ecore_Con_Type type, const char *name, int port, const void *data)
Creates a connection to the specified server and return an associated object.
Definition: ecore_con_legacy.c:2165

After these two pieces of code are executed, respectively, in the server and client code, the server will be up and running and the client will try to connect to it. The connection, with its subsequent messages being sent from server to client and client to server, can be represented in the following sequence diagram:

Please notice the important difference between these two codes: the first is used for writing a server, while the second should be used for writing a client.

A reference for the `client` functions can be found at Ecore Connection Client Functions.

- Ecore_Con - Creating a client

## Function Documentation

## ◆ ecore_con_local_path_new()

ECORE_CON_API char * ecore_con_local_path_new | ( | Eina_Bool | is_system,
|  | const char * | name,
|  | int | port
| ) |  |

Creates a local path to connect the socket.

In the old API, ecore_con_server_add() and ecore_con_server_connect() calculated a local path for connections using `ECORE_CON_LOCAL_USER` and `ECORE_CON_LOCAL_SYSTEM`, this function returns that path allocated so it can be used in applications that want to connect to that path without replicating its logic.

- If type is `ECORE_CON_LOCAL_USER`, the server will connect to the Unix socket. The path to the socket is taken from XDG_RUNTIME_DIR, if that is not set, then from HOME, even if this is not set, then from TMPDIR. If none is set, then path would be /tmp. From this path the function would connect to socket at "[path]/.ecore/[name]/[port]". If port is negative, then to socket at "[path]/.ecore/[name]".
- If type is `ECORE_CON_LOCAL_SYSTEM`, the server will connect to Unix socket at "/tmp/.ecore_service|[name]|[port]". If port is negative, then to Unix socket at "/tmp/.ecore_service|[name]".

Parameters

  is_system | If EINA_TRUE, will be a system wide socket similar to `ECORE_CON_LOCAL_SYSTEM`. If EINA_FALSE, then it's similar to `ECORE_CON_LOCAL_USER`.
  name | Name to associate with the socket. It is used when generating the socket name of a Unix socket, `NULL` will not be accepted.
  port | Number to identify socket. When a Unix socket is used, it becomes part of the socket name.

Returns
  NULL on failure or newly allocated path string on success, remember to free() it after usage.

Since
  1.19

## ◆ ecore_con_server_add()

ECORE_CON_API Ecore_Con_Server * ecore_con_server_add | ( | Ecore_Con_Type | type,
|  | const char * | name,
|  | int | port,
|  | const void * | data
| ) |  |

Creates a server to listen for connections.

Parameters

  type | The connection type.
  name | Name to associate with the socket. It is used when generating the socket name of a Unix socket, or for determining what host to listen on for TCP sockets. `NULL` will not be accepted.
  port | Number to identify socket. When a Unix socket is used, it becomes part of the socket name. When a TCP socket is used, it is used as the TCP port.
  data | Data to associate with the created Ecore_Con_Server object.

Returns
  A new Ecore_Con_Server.

The socket on which the server listens depends on the connection type:

- If type is `ECORE_CON_LOCAL_USER`, the server will listen on the Unix socket. The path to the socket is taken from XDG_RUNTIME_DIR, if that is not set, then from HOME, even if this is not set, then from TMPDIR. If none is set, then path would be /tmp. From this path socket would be created as "[path]/.ecore/[name]/[port]". If port is negative, then "[path]/.ecore/[name]".
- If type is `ECORE_CON_LOCAL_SYSTEM`, the server will listen on Unix socket "/tmp/.ecore_service|[name]|[port]". If port is negative, then "/tmp/.ecore_service|[name]".
- If type is `ECORE_CON_LOCAL_ABSTRACT`, then port number is not considered while creating the socket.
- If type is `ECORE_CON_REMOTE_TCP`, the server will listen on TCP port `port`.

More information about the `type` can be found at _Ecore_Con_Type.

The `data` parameter can be fetched later using ecore_con_server_data_get() or changed with ecore_con_server_data_set().

Note
  This API is deprecated and new code should use #EFL_NET_SERVER_SIMPLE_CLASS. See
  - efl_net_server_simple_example.c

## ◆ ecore_con_server_connect()

ECORE_CON_API Ecore_Con_Server * ecore_con_server_connect | ( | Ecore_Con_Type | type,
|  | const char * | name,
|  | int | port,
|  | const void * | data
| ) |  |

Creates a connection to the specified server and return an associated object.

Parameters

  type | The connection type.
  name | Name used when determining what socket to connect to. It is used to generate the socket name when the socket is a Unix socket. It is used as the hostname when connecting with a TCP socket.
  port | Number to identify the socket to connect to. Used when generating the socket name for a Unix socket, or as the TCP port when connecting to a TCP socket.
  data | Data to associate with the created Ecore_Con_Server object.

Returns
  A new Ecore_Con_Server.

The socket to which the connection is made depends on the connection type:

- If type is `ECORE_CON_LOCAL_USER`, the server will connect to the Unix socket. The path to the socket is taken from XDG_RUNTIME_DIR, if that is not set, then from HOME, even if this is not set, then from TMPDIR. If none is set, then path would be /tmp. From this path the function would connect to socket at "[path]/.ecore/[name]/[port]". If port is negative, then to socket at "[path]/.ecore/[name]".
- If type is `ECORE_CON_LOCAL_SYSTEM`, the server will connect to Unix socket at "/tmp/.ecore_service|[name]|[port]". If port is negative, then to Unix socket at "/tmp/.ecore_service|[name]".
- If type is `ECORE_CON_LOCAL_ABSTRACT`, then port number is not considered while connecting to socket.
- If type is `ECORE_CON_REMOTE_TCP`, the server will listen on TCP port `port`.

More information about the `type` can be found at _Ecore_Con_Type.

This function won't block. It will either succeed, or fail due to invalid parameters, failed memory allocation, etc., returning `NULL` on that case.

However, even if this call returns a valid Ecore_Con_Server, the connection will only be successfully completed if an event of type ECORE_CON_EVENT_SERVER_ADD is received. If it fails to complete, an ECORE_CON_EVENT_SERVER_DEL will be received.

The created object gets deleted automatically if the connection to the server is lost.

The `data` parameter can be fetched later using ecore_con_server_data_get() or changed with ecore_con_server_data_set().

## ◆ ecore_con_server_client_limit_set()

ECORE_CON_API void ecore_con_server_client_limit_set | ( | Ecore_Con_Server * | svr,
|  | int | client_limit,
|  | char | reject_excess_clients
| ) |  |

Sets a limit on the number of clients that can be handled concurrently by the given server, and a policy on what to do if excess clients try to connect.

Parameters

  svr | The given server.
  client_limit | The maximum number of clients to handle concurrently. -1 means unlimited (default). 0 effectively disables the server.
  reject_excess_clients | Set to 1 to automatically disconnect excess clients as soon as they connect if you are already handling client_limit clients. Set to 0 (default) to just hold off on the "accept()" system call until the number of active clients drops. This causes the kernel to queue up to 4096 connections (or your kernel's limit, whichever is lower).

Beware that if you set this once ecore is already running, you may already have pending CLIENT_ADD events in your event queue. Those clients have already connected and will not be affected by this call. Only clients subsequently trying to connect will be affected.

Examples
  ecore_con_server_simple_example.c.

## ◆ ecore_con_server_clients_get()

ECORE_CON_API const Eina_List * ecore_con_server_clients_get | ( | const Ecore_Con_Server * | svr | ) |

Retrieves the current list of clients.

Each node in the returned list points to an Efl_Network_Client. This list cannot be modified or freed. It can also change if new clients are connected or disconnected, and will become invalid when the server is deleted/freed.

Parameters

  svr | The given server.

Returns
  The list of clients on this server.

Examples
  ecore_con_server_simple_example.c.

## ◆ ecore_con_server_ip_get()

ECORE_CON_API const char * ecore_con_server_ip_get | ( | const Ecore_Con_Server * | svr | ) |

Gets the IP address of a server that has been connected to.

Parameters

  svr | The given server.

Returns
  A pointer to an internal string that contains the IP address of the connected server in the form "XXX.YYY.ZZZ.AAA" IP notation. This string should not be modified or trusted to stay valid after deletion for the `svr` object. If no IP is known `NULL` is returned.

Examples
  ecore_con_client_example.c, and ecore_con_client_simple_example.c.

## ◆ ecore_con_server_flush()

ECORE_CON_API void ecore_con_server_flush | ( | Ecore_Con_Server * | svr | ) |

Flushes all pending data to the given server.

Parameters

  svr | The given server.

This function will block until all data is sent to the server.

See also
  ecore_con_server_send()
  ecore_con_client_flush()

Examples
  ecore_con_client_example.c, and ecore_con_client_simple_example.c.

References ecore_main_loop_iterate(), EINA_FALSE, and EINA_TRUE.

Referenced by ecore_con_ssl_server_upgrade().

## ◆ ecore_con_server_timeout_set()

ECORE_CON_API void ecore_con_server_timeout_set | ( | Ecore_Con_Server * | svr,
|  | double | timeout
| ) |  |

Sets the default time after which an inactive client will be disconnected.

Parameters

  svr | The server object.
  timeout | The timeout, in seconds, to disconnect after.

This function is used by the server to set the default idle timeout on clients. If the any of the clients becomes idle for a time higher than this value, it will be disconnected. A value of < 1 disables the idle timeout.

This timeout is not affected by the one set by ecore_con_client_timeout_set(). A client will be disconnected whenever the client or the server timeout is reached. That means, the lower timeout value will be used for that client if ecore_con_client_timeout_set() is used on it.

See also
  ecore_con_server_timeout_get()
  ecore_con_client_timeout_set()

Examples
  ecore_con_server_simple_example.c.

## ◆ ecore_con_server_timeout_get()

ECORE_CON_API double ecore_con_server_timeout_get | ( | const Ecore_Con_Server * | svr | ) |

Gets the default time after which an inactive client will be disconnected.

Parameters

  svr | The server object.

Returns
  The timeout, in seconds, to disconnect after.

This function is used to get the idle timeout for clients. A value of < 1 means the idle timeout is disabled.

See also
  ecore_con_server_timeout_set()
  ecore_con_client_timeout_get()

## ◆ ecore_con_server_fd_get()

## ◆ ecore_con_ssl_server_crl_add()

ECORE_CON_API Eina_Bool ecore_con_ssl_server_crl_add | ( | Ecore_Con_Server * | svr,
|  | const char * | crl_file
| ) |  |

Adds an SSL CRL for use in ecore_con functions.

Use this function to add a SSL PEM CRL file. Simply specify the CRL file here to use it in the server object for connecting or listening. If there is an error loading the CRL, an error will automatically be logged.

Parameters

  svr | The server object.
  crl_file | The path to the CRL file.

Returns
  `EINA_FALSE` if the file cannot be loaded, otherwise `EINA_TRUE`.

## ◆ ecore_con_ssl_server_cafile_add()

ECORE_CON_API Eina_Bool ecore_con_ssl_server_cafile_add | ( | Ecore_Con_Server * | svr,
|  | const char * | ca_file
| ) |  |

Adds an SSL CA file for use in ecore_con functions.

Use this function to add a SSL PEM CA file. Simply specify the file here to use it in the server object for connecting or listening. If there is an error loading the CAs, an error will automatically be logged.

Parameters

  svr | The server object.
  ca_file | The path to the CA file.

Returns
  `EINA_FALSE` if the file cannot be loaded, otherwise `EINA_TRUE`.

Note
  since 1.2, this function can load directories.

## ◆ ecore_con_ssl_server_verify()

ECORE_CON_API void ecore_con_ssl_server_verify | ( | Ecore_Con_Server * | svr | ) |

Enables certificate verification on a server object.

Call this function on a server object before main loop has started to enable verification of certificates against loaded certificates.

Parameters

  svr | The server object

## ◆ ecore_con_ssl_server_verify_basic()

ECORE_CON_API void ecore_con_ssl_server_verify_basic | ( | Ecore_Con_Server * | svr | ) |

Enables hostname-based certificate verification on a server object.

Call this function on a server object before main loop has started to enable verification of certificates using ONLY their hostnames.

Parameters

  svr | The server object.

Note
  This function has no effect when used on a listening server created by ecore_con_server_add.

Since
  1.1

References EINA_SAFETY_ON_NULL_RETURN, EINA_SAFETY_ON_TRUE_RETURN, and EINA_TRUE.

## ◆ ecore_con_ssl_server_verify_name_set()

ECORE_CON_API void ecore_con_ssl_server_verify_name_set | ( | Ecore_Con_Server * | svr,
|  | const char * | name
| ) |  |

Sets the hostname to verify against in certificate verification.

Sometimes the certificate hostname will not match the hostname that you are connecting to, and will instead match a different name. An example of this is that if you connect to talk.google.com to use Google Talk, you receive Google's certificate for gmail.com. This certificate should be trusted, and so you must call this function with "gmail.com" as `name`. See RFC2818 for more details.

Parameters

  svr | The server object.
  name | The hostname to verify against

Since
  1.2

## ◆ ecore_con_ssl_server_verify_name_get()

ECORE_CON_API const char * ecore_con_ssl_server_verify_name_get | ( | Ecore_Con_Server * | svr | ) |

Gets the hostname to verify against in certificate verification.

This function returns the name which will be used to validate the SSL certificate common name (CN) or alt name (subjectAltName). It will default to the `name` param in ecore_con_server_connect(), but can be changed with ecore_con_ssl_server_verify_name_set().

Parameters

  svr | The server object.

Returns
  The hostname which will be used

  1.2

## ◆ ecore_con_ssl_server_upgrade()

ECORE_CON_API Eina_Bool ecore_con_ssl_server_upgrade | ( | Ecore_Con_Server * | svr,
|  | Ecore_Con_Type | ssl_type
| ) |  |

Upgrades a connection to a specified level of encryption.

Use this function to begin an SSL handshake on a connection (STARTTLS or similar). Once the upgrade has been completed, an ECORE_CON_EVENT_SERVER_UPGRADE event will be emitted. The connection should be treated as disconnected until the next event.

Parameters

  svr | The server object.
  ssl_type | The SSL connection type (ONLY).

Returns
  `EINA_FALSE` if the connection cannot be upgraded, otherwise `EINA_TRUE`.

Note
  This function is NEVER to be used on a server object created with ecore_con_server_add.

Warning
  Setting a wrong value for `ssl_type` WILL mess up your program.
