NAME

IO::Socket::TLSViaAsync

Interface for TLS connections

Synopsis

use IO::Socket::TLSViaAsync;
my $ssl = IO::Socket::TLSViaAsync.new(:host<example.com>, :port(443));
if $ssl.print("GET / HTTP/1.1\r\n\r\n") {
    say $ssl.recv;
}

Description

This module provides an interface for TLS connections. It's a drop in replacement of IO::Socket::INET.

Technically it's a wrapper around the IO::Socket::Async::SSL module. The new, connect and listen methods forward their named arguments to the connect and listen methods in IO::Socket::Async::SSL respectively.

Limitations

It's not possible to initialize an instance of IO::Socket::TLSViaAsync with an IO::Socket::INET object, because IO::Socket::TLSViaAsync is based on IO::Socket::Async::SSL which in turn is based on IO::Socket::Async, which is incompatible with IO::Socket.
