Obtains address information for nodename:servname.
Note that Addrinfo.getaddrinfo provides the same functionality in an object oriented style.
family should be an address family such as: :INET, :INET6, etc.
socktype should be a socket type such as: :STREAM, :DGRAM, :RAW, etc.
protocol should be a protocol defined in the family, and defaults to 0 for the family.
flags should be bitwise OR of Socket::AI_* constants.
Socket.getaddrinfo("www.ruby-lang.org", "http", nil, :STREAM) #=> [["AF_INET", 80, "carbon.ruby-lang.org", "221.186.184.68", 2, 1, 6]] # PF_INET/SOCK_STREAM/IPPROTO_TCP Socket.getaddrinfo("localhost", nil) #=> [["AF_INET", 0, "localhost", "127.0.0.1", 2, 1, 6], # PF_INET/SOCK_STREAM/IPPROTO_TCP # ["AF_INET", 0, "localhost", "127.0.0.1", 2, 2, 17], # PF_INET/SOCK_DGRAM/IPPROTO_UDP # ["AF_INET", 0, "localhost", "127.0.0.1", 2, 3, 0]] # PF_INET/SOCK_RAW/IPPROTO_IP
reverse_lookup directs the form of the third element, and has to be one of below. If reverse_lookup is omitted, the default value is nil.
+true+, +:hostname+: hostname is obtained from numeric address using reverse lookup, which may take a time. +false+, +:numeric+: hostname is same as numeric address. +nil+: obey to the current +do_not_reverse_lookup+ flag.
If Addrinfo object is preferred, use Addrinfo.getaddrinfo.
Lookups the IP address of host.
require 'socket' IPSocket.getaddress("localhost") #=> "127.0.0.1" IPSocket.getaddress("ip6-localhost") #=> "::1"
returns a list of addrinfo objects as an array.
This method converts nodename (hostname) and service (port) to addrinfo. Since the conversion is not unique, the result is a list of addrinfo objects.
nodename or service can be nil if no conversion intended.
family, socktype and protocol are hint for preferred protocol. If the result will be used for a socket with SOCK_STREAM, SOCK_STREAM should be specified as socktype. If so, Addrinfo.getaddrinfo returns addrinfo list appropriate for SOCK_STREAM. If they are omitted or nil is given, the result is not restricted.
Similarly, PF_INET6 as family restricts for IPv6.
flags should be bitwise OR of Socket::AI_??? constants such as follows. Note that the exact list of the constants depends on OS.
AI_PASSIVE Get address to use with bind() AI_CANONNAME Fill in the canonical name AI_NUMERICHOST Prevent host name resolution AI_NUMERICSERV Prevent service name resolution AI_V4MAPPED Accept IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses AI_ALL Allow all addresses AI_ADDRCONFIG Accept only if any address is assigned
Note that socktype should be specified whenever application knows the usage of the address. Some platform causes an error when socktype is omitted and servname is specified as an integer because some port numbers, 512 for example, are ambiguous without socktype.
Addrinfo.getaddrinfo("www.kame.net", 80, nil, :STREAM) #=> [#<Addrinfo: 203.178.141.194:80 TCP (www.kame.net)>, # #<Addrinfo: [2001:200:dff:fff1:216:3eff:feb1:44d7]:80 TCP (www.kame.net)>]
Returns the path of the local address of unixsocket.
s = UNIXServer.new("/tmp/sock") p s.path #=> "/tmp/sock"
Returns false. Just for compatibility to IO.
Truncates the buffer string to at most integer bytes. The strio must be opened for writing.
Set the scan pointer to the end of the string and clear matching data.
Appends str to the string being scanned. This method does not affect scan pointer.
s = StringScanner.new("Fri Dec 12 1975 14:39") s.scan(/Fri /) s << " +1000 GMT" s.string # -> "Fri Dec 12 1975 14:39 +1000 GMT" s.scan(/Dec/) # -> "Dec"
Tests whether the given pattern is matched from the current scan pointer. Returns the length of the match, or nil. The scan pointer is not advanced.
s = StringScanner.new('test string') p s.match?(/\w+/) # -> 4 p s.match?(/\w+/) # -> 4 p s.match?(/\s+/) # -> nil
Returns true iff the last match was successful.
s = StringScanner.new('test string') s.match?(/\w+/) # => 4 s.matched? # => true s.match?(/\d+/) # => nil s.matched? # => false
Returns the last matched string.
s = StringScanner.new('test string') s.match?(/\w+/) # -> 4 s.matched # -> "test"
