==================== Tokio Listen Helpers

:Status: Beta :Documentation: http://docs.rs/tk-listen/

A library that allows to listen network sockets with proper resource limits and error handling.

Basic challenges:

• Some connection accept errors (like "connection reset") must be ignored, some (like "too many files open") may consume 100% CPU when ignored. You need to know what to do with them every time
• Server must accept connections up to a certain limit to avoid DoS attacks
• Shutting down listener should be obvious to implement

Example

Here is the basic example:

let TIME_TO WAIT_ON_ERROR = Duration::from_millis(100);
let MAX_SIMULTANEOUS_CONNECTIONS = 1000;

let mut lp = Core::new().unwrap();
let listener = TcpListener::bind(&addr, &lp.handle()).unwrap();
lp.run(
    listener.incoming()
    .sleep_on_error(TIME_TO_WAIT_ON_ERROR, &h2)
    .map(move |(mut socket, _addr)| {
         // Your future is here:
         Proto::new(socket)
         // Errors should not pass silently
         // common idea is to log them
         .map_err(|e| error!("Protocol error: {}", e))
    })
    .listen(MAX_SIMULTANEOUS_CONNECTIONS)
).unwrap(); // stream doesn't end in this case
