NAME

Test::HTTP::AnyEvent::Server - the async counterpart to Test::HTTP::Server

VERSION

version 0.007

SYNOPSIS

    #!/usr/bin/env perl
    use common::sense;

    use AnyEvent::HTTP;
    use Test::HTTP::AnyEvent::Server;

    my $server = Test::HTTP::AnyEvent::Server->new;
    my $cv = AE::cv;

    $cv->begin;
    http_request GET => $server->uri . q(echo/head), sub {
        my ($body, $hdr) = @_;
        say $body;
        $cv->end;
    };

    $cv->wait;

DESCRIPTION

This package provides a simple NON-forking HTTP server which can be used for testing HTTP clients.

ATTRIBUTES

address

Address to bind the server. Defaults to 127.0.0.1.

port

Port to bind the server. Picks the first available by default.

maxconn

Limit the number of accepted connections to this. Default: 10.

timeout

Timeout connection after this number of seconds. Default: 60.

disable_proxy

Reset the proxy-controlling environment variables (no_proxy/http_proxy/ftp_proxy/all_proxy). I guess you don't need a proxy to connect to yourself. Default: true.

forked

(experimental) Sometimes, you just need to test some blocking code. Setting this flag to true will start Test::HTTP::AnyEvent::Server in a forked process.

forked_pid

(internal) Holds the PID of a child process if "forked" flag was used.

server

(internal) Holds the guard object whose lifetime it tied to the TCP server.

METHODS

uri

Return URI of a newly created server (with a trailing /).

start_server($prepare_cb)

(internal) Wrapper for the tcp_server from AnyEvent::Socket. $prepare_cb is used to get the IP address and port of the local socket endpoint and populate respective attributes.

FUNCTIONS

_cleanup

(internal) Close descriptor and shutdown connection.

_reply

(internal) Issue HTTP reply.

INTERFACE

Mostly borrowed from Test::HTTP::Server.

GET /echo/head

Echoes back the issued HTTP request (except the content part):

    $ curl -v http://127.0.0.1:44721/echo/head
    * About to connect() to 127.0.0.1 port 44721 (#0)
    *   Trying 127.0.0.1...
    * connected
    * Connected to 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) port 44721 (#0)
    > GET /echo/head HTTP/1.1
    > User-Agent: curl/7.27.0
    > Host: 127.0.0.1:44721
    > Accept: */*
    >
    * HTTP 1.0, assume close after body
    < HTTP/1.0 200 OK
    < Connection: close

    User-Agent: curl/7.27.0
    Host: 127.0.0.1:44721
    Accept: */*

    * Closing connection #0

GET /echo/body

Echoes back the content part of an issued HTTP POST request:

    $ curl -v -d param1=value1 -d param2=value2 http://127.0.0.1:44721/echo/body
    * About to connect() to 127.0.0.1 port 44721 (#0)
    *   Trying 127.0.0.1...
    * connected
    * Connected to 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) port 44721 (#0)
    > POST /echo/body HTTP/1.1
    > User-Agent: curl/7.27.0
    > Host: 127.0.0.1:44721
    > Accept: */*
    > Content-Length: 27
    > Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
    >
    * upload completely sent off: 27 out of 27 bytes
    * HTTP 1.0, assume close after body
    < HTTP/1.0 200 OK
    < Connection: close
    < Date: Mon, 15 Oct 2012 19:19:50 GMT

    < Content-Type: text/plain
    <
    * Closing connection #0
    param1=value1&param2=value2

GET /repeat/5/PADDING

Mindlessly repeat the specified pattern:

    $ curl -v http://127.0.0.1:44721/repeat/5/PADDING
    * About to connect() to 127.0.0.1 port 44721 (#0)
    *   Trying 127.0.0.1...
    * connected
    * Connected to 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) port 44721 (#0)
    > GET /repeat/5/PADDING HTTP/1.1
    > User-Agent: curl/7.27.0
    > Host: 127.0.0.1:44721
    > Accept: */*
    >
    * HTTP 1.0, assume close after body
    < HTTP/1.0 200 OK
    < Connection: close
    < Date: Mon, 15 Oct 2012 19:21:12 GMT
    < Server: Test::HTTP::AnyEvent::Server/0.003 AnyEvent/7.02 Perl/5.016001 (linux)
    < Content-Type: text/plain
    <
    * Closing connection #0
    PADDINGPADDINGPADDINGPADDINGPADDING

GET /delay/5

Holds the response for a specified number of seconds. Useful to test the timeout routines:

    $ curl -v http://127.0.0.1:44721/delay/5 && date
    * About to connect() to 127.0.0.1 port 44721 (#0)
    *   Trying 127.0.0.1...
    * connected
    * Connected to 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) port 44721 (#0)
    > GET /delay/5 HTTP/1.1
    > User-Agent: curl/7.27.0
    > Host: 127.0.0.1:44721
    > Accept: */*
    >
    * HTTP 1.0, assume close after body
    < HTTP/1.0 200 OK
    < Connection: close
    < Date: Mon, 15 Oct 2012 19:24:05 GMT
    < Server: Test::HTTP::AnyEvent::Server/0.003 AnyEvent/7.02 Perl/5.016001 (linux)
    < Content-Type: text/plain
    <
    * Closing connection #0
    issued Mon Oct 15 19:24:05 2012
    Mon Oct 15 16:24:10 BRT 2012

P.S. - not present in Test::HTTP::Server.

P.P.S. - setting the delay value below the "timeout" value is quite pointless.
