<div class="paragraph"><p>Start listening for connections over a secure TLS channel.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Both HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 are supported on this listener.
The ALPN TLS extension must be used to initiate an HTTP/2
connection.</p></div>
</div>

<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_arguments">Arguments</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="dlist"><dl>
<dt class="hdlist1">
Name
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
The listener name is used to refer to this listener in
future calls, for example when stopping it or when
updating the routes defined.
</p>
<div class="paragraph"><p>It can be any Erlang term. An atom is generally good enough,
for example <code>api</code>, <code>my_app_clear</code> or <code>my_app_tls</code>.</p></div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
NumAcceptors
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
The number of acceptors is the number of processes that
will accept connections. Tweak this value to improve the
accept rate for incoming connections.
</p>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The ideal value is between 10 and 100 on most systems.
Larger values may have the opposite effect and reduce the
accept rate. It’s generally safe to start with a value of
100 (or 10 on low memory systems). Then, when accept rates
become a concern, measure the performance and update the
value accordingly.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This value is unrelated to the maximum number of concurrent
connections.</p></div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
TransportOpts
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
The transport options are where the TCP options, including
the listener’s port number, are defined. They also contain
the TLS options, like the server’s certificate. Transport options
are provided as a list of keys and values, for example
<code>[{port, 8443}, {certfile, "path/to/cert.pem"}]</code>.
</p>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The available options are documented in the
<a href="../ranch_ssl">ranch_ssl(3)</a> manual.</p></div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
ProtocolOpts
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
The protocol options are in a map containing all the options for
the different protocols that may be involved when connecting
to the listener, including HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 but also
subprotocols like Websocket.
</p>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The HTTP/1.1 options are documented in the
<a href="../cowboy_http">cowboy_http(3)</a> manual;
the HTTP/2 options in
<a href="../cowboy_http">cowboy_http2(3)</a>;
and the Websocket options in
<a href="../cowboy_websocket">cowboy_websocket(3)</a>.</p></div>

<h2 id="_return_value">Return value</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>An ok tuple is returned on success. It contains the pid of
the top-level supervisor for the listener.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>An error tuple is returned on error. The error reason may
be any Erlang term.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>A common error is <code>eaddrinuse</code>. It indicates that the port
configured for Cowboy is already in use.</p></div>
