Both transport and protocol %% modules can be given options through the TransOpts and the %% ProtoOpts arguments. Available options are documented in the %% listen transport function and in the protocol module of your choice. %% %% All acceptor and request processes are supervised by the listener. %% %% It is recommended to set a large enough number of acceptors to improve %% performance. The exact number depends of course on your hardware, on the %% protocol used and on the number of expected simultaneous connections. %% %% The Transport option max_connections allows you to define %% the maximum number of simultaneous connections for this listener. It defaults %% to 1024. See cowboy_listener for more details on limiting the number %% of connections. %% %% Although Cowboy includes a cowboy_http_protocol handler, other %% handlers can be created for different protocols like IRC, FTP and more. %% %% Ref can be used to stop the listener later on. -spec start_listener(any(), non_neg_integer(), module(), any(), module(), any()) -> {ok, pid()}. start_listener(Ref, NbAcceptors, Transport, TransOpts, Protocol, ProtoOpts) when is_integer(NbAcceptors) andalso is_atom(Transport) andalso is_atom(Protocol) -> supervisor:start_child(cowboy_sup, child_spec(Ref, NbAcceptors, Transport, TransOpts, Protocol, ProtoOpts)). %% @doc Stop a listener identified by Ref. -spec stop_listener(any()) -> ok | {error, not_found}. stop_listener(Ref) -> case supervisor:terminate_child(cowboy_sup, {cowboy_listener_sup, Ref}) of ok -> supervisor:delete_child(cowboy_sup, {cowboy_listener_sup, Ref}); {error, Reason} -> {error, Reason} end. %% @doc Return a child spec suitable for embedding. %% %% When you want to embed cowboy in another application, you can use this %% function to create a ChildSpec suitable for use in a supervisor. %% The parameters are the same as in start_listener/6 but rather %% than hooking the listener to the cowboy internal supervisor, it just returns %% the spec. -spec child_spec(any(), non_neg_integer(), module(), any(), module(), any()) -> supervisor:child_spec(). child_spec(Ref, NbAcceptors, Transport, TransOpts, Protocol, ProtoOpts) when is_integer(NbAcceptors) andalso is_atom(Transport) andalso is_atom(Protocol) -> {{cowboy_listener_sup, Ref}, {cowboy_listener_sup, start_link, [ NbAcceptors, Transport, TransOpts, Protocol, ProtoOpts ]}, permanent, 5000, supervisor, [cowboy_listener_sup]}. %% @doc Acknowledge the accepted connection. %% %% Effectively used to make sure the socket control has been given to %% the protocol process before starting to use it. -spec accept_ack(pid()) -> ok. accept_ack(ListenerPid) -> receive {shoot, ListenerPid} -> ok end. %% @doc Return the current protocol options for the given listener. -spec get_protocol_options(any()) -> any(). get_protocol_options(Ref) -> ListenerPid = ref_to_listener_pid(Ref), {ok, ProtoOpts} = cowboy_listener:get_protocol_options(ListenerPid), ProtoOpts. %% @doc Upgrade the protocol options for the given listener. %% %% The upgrade takes place at the acceptor level, meaning that only the %% newly accepted connections receive the new protocol options.
