=head1 NAME
HTTP::Server::EV - Asynchronous HTTP server written in C with request parser.
=head1 DESCRIPTION
HTTP::Server::EV - Asynchronous HTTP server using EV event loop.
It doesn`t load files received in the POST request in memory as moust of CGI modules does, but stores them directly to tmp files, so it`s useful for handling large files without using a lot of memory.
=head1 INCLUDED MODULES
L<HTTP::Server::EV::CGI> - received http request object
L<HTTP::Server::EV::MultipartFile> - received file object
L<HTTP::Server::EV::Buffer> - non blocking output
L<HTTP::Server::EV::BufTie> - workaround for correct handling requests in L<Coro> threads
L<HTTP::Server::EV::IO::AIO> - Non-blocking disk IO.
L<HTTP::Server::EV::IO::Blocking> - Blocking IO.

=head1 METHODS
=head2 new( { options } )
Options:
=over
=item tmp_path
Directory for saving received files. Tries to create if not found, dies on fail.
Default: ./upload_tmpfiles/
=item cleanup_on_destroy
Usually HTTP::Server::EV::CGI deletes tmp files on DESTROY, but it might by bug if you delete HTTP::Server::EV::CGI object when its files are still opened. Setting on this flag causes HTTP::Server::EV delete all files in tmp_path on program close, but don`t use it if jou have several process working with same tmp dir.
Default: 0
=item backend
Seting on cause HTTP::Server::EV::CGI parse ip from X-Real-IP http header
Default: 0

=head2 listen( port , sub {req_received_callback} , { optional parameters and multipart processing callbacks })
Binds callback to port. Calls callback and passes L<HTTP::Server::EV::CGI> object in it. Returns L<HTTP::Server::EV::PortListener> obeject, you can keep it and use to stop port listening.

=head1 BUGS/WARNINGS
Static allocated buffers:
- 4kb for GET/POST form field names
- 4kb for GET values
- 50kb for POST form field values ( not for files. Files are stored into tmp directly from socket stream, so filesize not limited by HTTP::Server::EV)
HTTP::Server::EV drops connection if some buffer overflows. You can change these values in EV.xs and recompile module.
