Stream

The Stream objects have been developed to make socket handling more accessible, with a high level of customization.

Listener

For stream listener, you can use ListenerSetting to configure it.

As a server, you need to specify the URL and optionally SSL.

listener:
  url: "0.0.0.0:8080"
  ssl:
    cert: "/opt/cert.pem"
    key: "/opt/cert.key"
    passphrase: "key_passphrase"
  max_socket: 4000000

Some server implementations may support the max_socket parameter to prevent overload conditions.

Client

For clients, Stream typically uses TargetSetting for configuration.

You need to specify the URL and optionally SSL. Additionally, you can specify a proxy if needed:

stream:
  url: "worldline.com:443"
  ssl:
    store:
      path: /etc/ssl/certs/
  proxy: "http://myhttpproxy"
  connect_timeout: 3000

The connect_timeout setting prevents infinite waits during connection attempts.
