uv-rays

UV-Rays was designed to eliminate the complexities of high-performance threaded network programming, allowing engineers to concentrate on their application logic.

Core Features

1. TCP (and UDP) Connection abstractions
2. Advanced stream tokenization
3. Scheduled events (in, at, every, cron)
4. HTTP 1.1 compatible client support

This adds to the features already available from Libuv on which the gem is based

Support

UV-Rays supports all platforms where ruby is available. Linux, OSX, BSD and Windows. MRI, jRuby and Rubinius.

Run gem install uv-rays to install

Getting Started

Here’s a fully-functional echo server written with UV-Rays:

```ruby

require ‘uv-rays’

module EchoServer def post_init puts “– someone connected to the echo server!” end

def on_read data, *args write “»>you sent: #data” close_connection if data =~ /quit/i end

def on_close puts “– someone disconnected from the echo server!” end end

Note that this will block current thread.

Libuv::Loop.default.run { UV.start_server “127.0.0.1”, 8081, EchoServer }

```
