DESCRIPTION ----------- This documents the different callback handlers that can optionally be invoked on receipt of a packet or when a timeout occurs. FUNCTIONS --------- *Function: coap_register_request_handler()* The *coap_register_request_handler*() is a server side function that registers a callback handler _handler_ that is called when there is an incoming request PDU, there is a URI match against the _resource_ and there is a _method_ (e.g. PUT, POST etc.) match. _method_ can be one of the following. ---- COAP_REQUEST_GET COAP_REQUEST_POST COAP_REQUEST_PUT COAP_REQUEST_DELETE COAP_REQUEST_FETCH COAP_REQUEST_PATCH COAP_REQUEST_IPATCH ---- The request handler function prototype is defined as: [source, c] ---- typedef void (*coap_method_handler_t)(coap_resource_t *resource, coap_session_t *session, const coap_pdu_t *incoming_pdu, const coap_string_t *query, coap_pdu_t *response_pdu); ---- In _handler_, data from _incoming_pdu_ can be abstracted as described in *coap_pdu_access*(3) for analysis and then the _handler_ updates _response_pdu_ as appropriate as described in *coap_pdu_setup*(3), including the response code. If _response_pdu_'s code is not updated, then _response_pdu_ will not get sent back to the client. _response_pdu_ is already pre-populated with the _incoming_pdu_'s token and the PDU type. If _handler_ is called as a result of an unsolicited Observe trigger, then the Observe option (and potentially Block2 option) are also added in. The _response_pdu_'s response code should always be updated. This _handler_ must not call *coap_send*(3) to send _response_pdu_. _response_pdu_ gets sent on return from _handler_, assuming the response code has been updated. If the response code was not updated, then an empty ACK packet will get sent for CON type requests or nothing for NON type requests. *NOTE:* Any data associated with _incoming_pdu_ is no longer be available after exiting this function as _incoming_pdu_ is deleted. In particular _incoming_pdu_'s data must not be used if calling *coap_add_data_large_response*(). However, it is safe to use the data if *coap_add_data*() is used to update _response_pdu_ where a copy of the data is taken. *NOTE:* A request callback handler can be called with a generic resource (i.e. set up using *coap_resource_unknown_init2*(3)), so *coap_resource_get_uri_path*(3) can be used to determine the URI in this case. *Function: coap_register_response_handler()* The *coap_register_response_handler*() is a client side function that registers a request's response callback _handler_ for traffic associated with the _context_. The application can use this for handling any response packets, including sending a RST packet if this response was unexpected. If _handler_ is NULL, then the handler is de-registered. The response handler function prototype is defined as: [source, c] ---- typedef enum coap_response_t { COAP_RESPONSE_FAIL, /* Response not liked - send CoAP RST packet */ COAP_RESPONSE_OK /* Response is fine */ } coap_response_t; typedef coap_response_t (*coap_response_handler_t)(coap_session_t *session, const coap_pdu_t *sent, const coap_pdu_t *received, const coap_mid_t id); ---- In _handler_, data from _received_ (and optionally _sent_ if set) can be abstracted as described in *coap_pdu_access*(3) for analysis. *NOTE:* _sent_ will only be non NULL when the request PDU is Confirmable and this is an ACK or RST response to the request. In general, matching of Requests and Responses whould be done by generating unique Tokens for each Request and then matching up based on the Token in _received_ Response. *NOTE:* If the returned value is COAP_RESPONSE_FAIL, then a CoAP RST packet will get sent to the server by libcoap. The returned value of COAP_RESPONSE_OK indicates that all is OK. *Function: coap_register_nack_handler()* The *coap_register_nack_handler*() is a client side function that registers a request's negative response callback _handler_ for traffic associated with the _context_. If _handler_ is NULL, then the handler is de-registered. The nack handler function prototype is defined as: [source, c] ---- typedef void (*coap_nack_handler_t)(coap_session_t *session, const coap_pdu_t *sent, const coap_nack_reason_t reason, const coap_mid_t mid); ---- NACK _reason_ can be one of the following ---- COAP_NACK_TOO_MANY_RETRIES COAP_NACK_NOT_DELIVERABLE COAP_NACK_RST COAP_NACK_TLS_FAILED COAP_NACK_ICMP_ISSUE COAP_NACK_BAD_RESPONSE ---- _sent_ can be NULL. _mid_ can be used for determining which is the transmitting request. *Function: coap_register_ping_handler()* The *coap_register_ping_handler*() function registers a callback _handler_ for tracking receipt of CoAP ping traffic associated with the _context_. If _handler_ is NULL, then the handler is de-registered. It can be used both client and server side. The ping handler function prototype is defined as: [source, c] ---- typedef void (*coap_ping_handler_t)(coap_session_t *session, const coap_pdu_t *received, const coap_mid_t mid); ---- *Function: coap_register_pong_handler()* The *coap_register_pong_handler*() function registers a callback _handler_ for tracking receipt of CoAP ping response traffic associated with the _context_. If _handler_ is NULL, then the handler is de-registered. It can be used both client and server side. The pong handler function prototype is defined as: [source, c] ---- typedef void (*coap_pong_handler_t)(coap_session_t *session, const coap_pdu_t *received, const coap_mid_t mid); ---- *Function: coap_register_event_handler()* The *coap_register_event_handler*() function registers a callback _handler_ for tracking network events associated with the _context_. If _handler_ is NULL, then the handler is de-registered. It can be used both client and server side. The event handler function prototype is defined as: [source, c] ---- typedef void (*coap_event_handler_t)(coap_session_t *session, const coap_event_t event); ---- Events can be one of the following ---- /** * (D)TLS events for COAP_PROTO_DTLS and COAP_PROTO_TLS */ COAP_EVENT_DTLS_CLOSED 0x0000 COAP_EVENT_DTLS_CONNECTED 0x01DE COAP_EVENT_DTLS_RENEGOTIATE 0x01DF COAP_EVENT_DTLS_ERROR 0x0200 /** * TCP events for COAP_PROTO_TCP and COAP_PROTO_TLS */ COAP_EVENT_TCP_CONNECTED 0x1001 COAP_EVENT_TCP_CLOSED 0x1002 COAP_EVENT_TCP_FAILED 0x1003 /** * CSM exchange events for reliable protocols only */ COAP_EVENT_SESSION_CONNECTED 0x2001 COAP_EVENT_SESSION_CLOSED 0x2002 COAP_EVENT_SESSION_FAILED 0x2003 /** * (Q-)BLOCK events */ COAP_EVENT_PARTIAL_BLOCK 0x3001 COAP_EVENT_XMIT_BLOCK_FAIL 0x3002 /** * Server session state management events */ COAP_EVENT_SERVER_SESSION_NEW 0x4001 COAP_EVENT_SERVER_SESSION_DEL 0x4002 /** * Message receive and transmit events */ COAP_EVENT_BAD_PACKET 0x5001 COAP_EVENT_MSG_RETRANSMITTED 0x5002 /** * OSCORE events */ COAP_EVENT_OSCORE_DECRYPTION_FAILURE 0x6001 COAP_EVENT_OSCORE_NOT_ENABLED 0x6002 COAP_EVENT_OSCORE_NO_PROTECTED_PAYLOAD 0x6003 COAP_EVENT_OSCORE_NO_SECURITY 0x6004 COAP_EVENT_OSCORE_INTERNAL_ERROR 0x6005 COAP_EVENT_OSCORE_DECODE_ERROR 0x6006 /** * WebSocket events */ COAP_EVENT_WS_PACKET_SIZE 0x7001 COAP_EVENT_WS_CONNECTED 0x7002 COAP_EVENT_WS_CLOSE 0x7003 /** * Keepalive events */ COAP_EVENT_KEEPALIVE_FAILURE 0x8001 ---- EXAMPLES -------- *GET Resource Callback Handler* [source, c] ---- #include #include static void hnd_get_time(coap_resource_t *resource, coap_session_t *session, coap_pdu_t *request, coap_string_t *query, coap_pdu_t *response) { unsigned char buf[40]; size_t len; time_t now; /* ...
