Title: SRFI 106: Basic socket interface

Title

Basic socket interface

Author

Takashi Kato

Status

This SRFI is currently in ``draft'' status. To see an explanation of each status that a SRFI can hold, see here. To provide input on this SRFI, please mail to <srfi minus 106 at srfi dot schemers dot org>. See instructions here to subscribe to the list. You can access previous messages via the archive of the mailing list.

Abstract

This document specifies basic socket interfaces.

Rationale

Many Scheme implementations have its own socket APIs however there are no portable way to write socket program. Therefore programmers need to provide implementation dependent layer for their programs.

This document specifies high and middle range of socket interfaces which are commonly used to write socket programming. That should make it easier to write portable programs that need to send or receive data from their socket.

Specification

All procedures defined in this SRFI may raise an error when the procedure failed because of the connection problem or other socket related problem. This document does not specify which condition should be raised. The end of this section, I put a table described which condition will be raised by some of the Scheme implementations.

The procedures

The procedure description uses following notation;
socketa socket object
bva bytevector
objectany value

Constructors and predicate

make-client-socket node service [ai-family [ai-socktype [ai-flags [ai-protocol]]]] -> socket
Returns a client socket connected to an Internet addres.
The Internet address is identified by node and service. node and service must be string.
Example value of node: "localhost" "127.0.0.1"
Example value of service: "http" "80"
The optional parameter may specify the created socket's behaviour.
If the optional argument(s) is omitted, then following flags should be used as default.
ai-family
*af-inet*
ai-socktype
*sock-stream*
ai-flags
(socket-merge-flags *ai-v4mapped* *ai-addrconfig*)
ai-protocol
*ipproto-ip*
The created socket may not be closed automatically so it is users' responsibility to close it explicitly.
make-server-socket service [ai-family [ai-socktype [ai-protocol]]] -> socket
Returns a server socket waiting for connection.
The description of node argument is the same as make-client-socket.
The optional parameter may specify the created socket's behaviour.
If the optional argument(s) is omitted, then following flags should be used as default.
ai-family
*af-inet*
ai-socktype
*sock-stream*
ai-protocol
*ipproto-ip*
The created socket may not be closed automatically so it is users' responsibility to close it explicitly.
socket? object -> boolean
Returns #t if given object is socket object. Otherwise #f.

Socket operations

socket-accept socket -> socket
Wait for an incomming connection request, and returns a fresh connected client socket.
socket-send socket bv [flags] -> size
Sends a binary data block to a socket and returns the sent data size.
flags may specify the procedure's behaviour.
If the flags is omitted, the default value must be the result of following form;
(message-type none)
socket-recv socket size [flags] -> bv
Receives a binary data block from a socket. If zero length bytevector is returned, it means the peer connection is closed.
flags may specify the procedure's behaviour.
If the flags is omitted, the default value must be the result of following form;
(message-type none)
socket-shutdown socket how -> (unspecified)
Shutdowns a socket.
how must be one of the following constants;
  • *shut-rd*
  • *shut-wr*
  • *shut-rdwr*
socket-close socket -> (unspecified)
Closes a socket.
The procedure should not shutdown the given socket. To shutdown a socket, socket-shutdown should be called explicitly.

Port conversion

socket-input-port socket -> binary-input-port
socket-output-port socket -> binary-output-port
Returns a fresh binary input and output port associated with a socket, respectively.
The port should not close underlying socket when it's closing.

Control feature

call-with-socket socket proc -> object
Calls a given procedure with a given socket as an argument.
If given proc returns then it returns the result of proc and socket will be automatically closed. If proc doesn't return then given socket won't be closed automatically. It's analogy of call-with-port.

Flag operations
