class TCPSocket
Overview
A Transmission Control Protocol (TCP/IP) socket.
NOTE To use TCPSocket
, you must explicitly import it with require "socket"
Usage example:
require "socket"
client = TCPSocket.new("localhost", 1234)
client << "message\n"
response = client.gets
client.close
Direct Known Subclasses
Defined in:
socket/tcp_socket.crConstructors
-
.new(family : Family = Family::INET, blocking = false)
Creates a new
TCPSocket
, waiting to be connected. -
.new(host : String, port, dns_timeout = nil, connect_timeout = nil, blocking = false)

Class Method Summary
-
.open(host : String, port, &)
Opens a TCP socket to a remote TCP server, yields it to the block, then eventually closes the socket when the block returns.
Instance Method Summary
-
#tcp_keepalive_count
The number of probes sent, without response before dropping the connection.
- #tcp_keepalive_count=(val : Int)
-
#tcp_keepalive_idle
The amount of time in seconds the connection must be idle before sending keepalive probes.
- #tcp_keepalive_idle=(val : Int)
-
#tcp_keepalive_interval
The amount of time in seconds between keepalive probes.
- #tcp_keepalive_interval=(val : Int)

Constructor Detail
Creates a new TCPSocket
, waiting to be connected.
Creates a new TCP connection to a remote TCP server.
You may limit the DNS resolution time with dns_timeout
and limit the
connection time to the remote server with connect_timeout
. Both values
must be in seconds (integers or floats).
NOTE dns_timeout is currently only supported on Windows.
Creates a TCPSocket from an already configured raw file descriptor
Class Method Detail
Opens a TCP socket to a remote TCP server, yields it to the block, then eventually closes the socket when the block returns.
Returns the value of the block.
Instance Method Detail
The number of probes sent, without response before dropping the connection.
The amount of time in seconds the connection must be idle before sending keepalive probes.
Disables the Nagle algorithm when set to true
, otherwise enables it.
