Protocols
=========
Purpose
-------
A protocol handler starts a connection process and defines the
protocol logic executed in this process.
Writing a protocol handler
--------------------------
All protocol handlers must implement the ```ranch_protocol``` behavior
which defines a single callback, ```start_link/4```. This callback is
responsible for spawning a new process for handling the connection.
It receives four arguments: the listener's pid, the socket, the
transport handler being used and the protocol options defined in
the call to ```ranch:start_listener/6```. This callback must
return ```{ok, Pid}```, with ```Pid``` the pid of the new process.
The newly started process can then freely initialize itself. However,
it must call ```ranch:accept_ack/1``` before doing any socket operation.
This will ensure the connection process is the owner of the socket.
It expects the listener's pid as argument.
``` erlang
ok = ranch:accept_ack(ListenerPid).
```
If your protocol code requires specific socket options, you should
set them while initializing your connection process and before
starting ```ranch:accept_ack/1```. You can use ```Transport:setopts/2```
for that purpose.
Following is the complete protocol code for the example found
in ```examples/tcp_echo/```.
``` erlang
-module(echo_protocol).
-behaviour(ranch_protocol).
-export([start_link/4]).
-export([init/4]).
start_link(ListenerPid, Socket, Transport, Opts) ->
Pid = spawn_link(?MODULE, init, [ListenerPid, Socket, Transport, Opts]),
{ok, Pid}.
init(ListenerPid, Socket, Transport, _Opts = []) ->
ok = ranch:accept_ack(ListenerPid),
loop(Socket, Transport).
loop(Socket, Transport) ->
case Transport:recv(Socket, 0, 5000) of
{ok, Data} ->
Transport:send(Socket, Data),
loop(Socket, Transport);
_ ->
ok = Transport:close(Socket)
end.
```
