Constructor Details

- (Socket) initialize(existing_socket = nil, **kwargs) {|socket| ... }

Creates a new socket or wraps an existing socket.

Parameters:

  • existing_socket (Socket) (defaults to: nil)

    An instantiated socket to be wrapped in and returned as an Ionian::Socket (for example, TCPSocket). A new socket will be created if this parameter is nil.

  • kwargs (Hash)

    :host is mandatory.

Options Hash (**kwargs):

  • :host (String)

    IP or hostname to connect to. Can contain the port in the format “host:port”.

  • :port (Fixnum) — default: 23

    Connection's port number. Unused by the :unix protocol.

  • :protocol (:tcp, :udp, :unix) — default: :tcp

    Type of socket to create. :udp will be automatically selected for addresses in the multicast range, or if the broadcast flag is set.

  • :persistent (Boolean) — default: true

    The socket remains open after data is sent if this is true. The socket closes after data is sent and a packet is received if this is false.

  • :bind_port (Boolean) — default: :port

    Local UDP port to bind to for receiving data, if different than the remote port being connected to.

  • :broadcast (Boolean) — default: false

    Enable the SO_BROADCAST flag. Sets protocol to :udp implicitly.

  • :reuse_addr (Boolean) — default: false

    Enable the SO_REUSEADDR flag. Allows local address reuse.

  • :no_delay (Boolean) — default: false

    Enable the TCP_NODELAY flag. Disables Nagle algorithm.

  • :cork (Boolean) — default: false

    Enable the TCP_CORK flag. Buffers multiple writes into one segment.

  • :linger (Boolean) — default: false

    Enable the SO_LINGER flag. When #close is called, waits for the send buffer to empty before closing the socket.

  • :expression (Regexp, String)

    Overrides the Extension::IO#read_match regular expression for received data.

Yield Parameters:

  • socket (Ionian::Socket)

    This socket is yielded to the block. Socket flushes and closes when exiting the block.
