class UNIXSocket
Overview
A local interprocess communication clientsocket.
Available on UNIX-like operating systems, and Windows 10 Build 17063 or above. Not all features are supported on Windows.
NOTE To use UNIXSocket
, you must explicitly import it with require "socket"
Example usage:
require "socket"
sock = UNIXSocket.new("/tmp/myapp.sock")
sock.puts "message"
response = sock.gets
sock.close
Direct Known Subclasses
Defined in:
socket/unix_socket.crConstructors
-
.new(path : String, type : Type = Type::STREAM)
Connects a named UNIX socket, bound to a filesystem pathname.
-
.new(*, fd : Handle, type : Type = Type::STREAM, path : String | Nil = nil)
Creates a UNIXSocket from an already configured raw file descriptor
Class Method Summary
-
.open(path, type : Type = Type::STREAM, &)
Opens an UNIX socket to a filesystem pathname, yields it to the block, then eventually closes the socket when the block returns.
-
.pair(type : Type = Type::STREAM) : Tuple(UNIXSocket, UNIXSocket)
Returns a pair of unnamed UNIX sockets.
-
.pair(type : Type = Type::STREAM, &)
Creates a pair of unnamed UNIX sockets (see
.pair
) and yields them to the block.
Instance Method Summary
- #local_address : Socket::UNIXAddress
- #path : String | Nil
-
#receive
Receives a text message from the previously bound address.
- #remote_address : Socket::UNIXAddress

Constructor Detail
Connects a named UNIX socket, bound to a filesystem pathname.
Creates a UNIXSocket from an already configured raw file descriptor
Class Method Detail
Opens an UNIX socket to a filesystem pathname, yields it to the block, then eventually closes the socket when the block returns.
Returns the value of the block.
Returns a pair of unnamed UNIX sockets.
require "socket"
left, right = UNIXSocket.pair
spawn do
# echo server
message = right.gets
right.puts message
end
left.puts "message"
left.gets # => "message"
Creates a pair of unnamed UNIX sockets (see .pair
) and yields them to the
block. Eventually closes both sockets when the block returns.
Returns the value of the block.
