NAME

AnyEvent::JSONRPC - Simple TCP-based JSONRPC client/server

SYNOPSIS

    use AnyEvent::JSONRPC;
    
    my $server = jsonrpc_server '127.0.0.1', '4423';
    $server->reg_cb(
        echo => sub {
            my ($res_cv, @params) = @_;
            $res_cv->result(@params);
        },
    );
    
    my $client = jsonrpc_client '127.0.0.1', '4423';
    my $d = $client->call( echo => 'foo bar' );
    
    my $res = $d->recv; # => 'foo bar';

DESCRIPTION

This module provide TCP-based JSONRPC server/client implementation.

AnyEvent::JSONRPC provide you a couple of export functions that are shortcut of AnyEvent::JSONRPC::TCP::Client and AnyEvent::JSONRPC::TCP::Server. One is jsonrpc_client for Client, another is jsonrpc_server for Server.

DIFFERENCES FROM THE "Lite" MODULE

This module is a fork of Daisuke Murase's AnyEvent::JSONRPC::Lite updated to use Yuval Kogman's JSON::RPC::Common for handling the JSONRPC messages. This enables support for handling messages complying to all versions of the JSONRPC standard.

The System Services/Service Description parts of version 1.1-wd and 1.1-alt is unimplemented and left to users to implement.

As none of the specs really defines JSON-RPC over TCP I consider this module an otherwise full-spec implementation.

FUNCTIONS

jsonrpc_server $address, $port;

Create AnyEvent::JSONRPC::TCP::Server object and return it.

This is equivalent to:

    AnyEvent::JSONRPC::TCP::Server->new(
        address => $address,
        port    => $port,
    );

See AnyEvent::JSONRPC::TCP::Server for more detail.

jsonrpc_client $hostname, $port

Create AnyEvent::JSONRPC::TCP::Client object and return it.

This is equivalent to:

    AnyEvent::JSONRPC::TCP::Client->new(
        host => $hostname,
        port => $port,
    );

See AnyEvent::JSONRPC::TCP::Client for more detail.
