# Socket Connection

## Overview

The Socket Connection module allows an application to transmit data over a socket connection through the TCP, UDP, Multicast, or TLS protocol.

> **NOTE**
>
> After an application is switched from the background to the foreground, it will attempt to resume network communication. If the attempt fails, an error is thrown and a new TCP/UDP connection object is created.

## Basic Concepts

- Socket: An abstraction of endpoints for bidirectional communication between application processes running on different hosts in a network.
- TCP: Transmission Control Protocol, which is a byte stream–based transport layer communication protocol that is connection-oriented and reliable.
- UDP: User Datagram Protocol, which is a simple datagram-oriented transport layer communication protocol.
- Multicast: A UDP-based communication mode that implements broadcast communication between all devices in a group.
- LocalSocket: An inter-process communication (IPC) mechanism that implements communication between processes on a device without using a network.
- TLS: Transport Layer Security, which is a protocol that ensures the data confidentiality and integrity between communication programs.

## When to Use

Applications can transmit data over TCP, UDP, Multicast, or TLS socket connections. The main application scenarios include:

- Implementing data transmission over TCP/UDP socket connections
- Implementing data transmission over TCP socket server connections
- Implementing data transmission over multicast socket connections
- Implementing data transmission over local socket connections
- Implementing data transmission over local socket server connections
- Implementing encrypted data transmission over TLS socket connections
- Implementing encrypted data transmission over TLS socket server connections

## Transmitting Data over TCP Socket or UDP Socket Connections

The implementation is similar for UDP socket and TCP socket connections. The following uses data transmission over a TCP socket connection as an example.

1. Import the required socket module.

2. Create a TCP socket connection. A **TCPSocket** object is returned.

3. (Optional) Subscribe to TCP socket connection events.

4. Bind the IP address and port number. The port number can be specified or randomly allocated by the system.

5. Set up a connection to the specified IP address and port number.

6. Send data over the connection.

7. Enable the TCP socket connection to be automatically closed after use.

```ts
import { socket } from '@kit.NetworkKit';
import { BusinessError } from '@kit.BasicServicesKit';

class SocketInfo {
  message: ArrayBuffer = new ArrayBuffer(1);
  remoteInfo: socket.SocketRemoteInfo = {} as socket.SocketRemoteInfo;
}
// Create a TCP socket connection. A TCPSocket object is returned.
let tcp: socket.TCPSocket = socket.constructTCPSocketInstance();
tcp.on('message', (value: SocketInfo) => {
  console.log("on message");
  let buffer = value.message;
  let dataView = new DataView(buffer);
  let str = "";
  for (let i = 0; i < dataView.byteLength; ++i) {
    str += String.fromCharCode(dataView.getUint8(i));
  }
  console.log("on connect received:" + str);
});
tcp.on('connect', () => {
  console.log("on connect");
});
tcp.on('close', () => {
  console.log("on close");
});

// Bind the local IP address and port number.
let ipAddress : socket.NetAddress = {} as socket.NetAddress;
ipAddress.address = "192.168.xxx.xxx";
ipAddress.port = 1234;
tcp.bind(ipAddress, (err: BusinessError) => {
  if (err) {
    console.log('bind fail');
    return;
  }
  console.log('bind success');

  // Set up a connection to the specified IP address and port number.
  ipAddress.address = "192.168.xxx.xxx";
  ipAddress.port = 5678;

  let tcpConnect : socket.TCPConnectOptions = {} as socket.TCPConnectOptions;
  tcpConnect.address = ipAddress;
  tcpConnect.timeout = 6000;

  tcp.connect(tcpConnect).then(() => {
    console.log('connect success');
    let tcpSendOptions: socket.TCPSendOptions = {
      data: 'Hello, server!'
    }
    tcp.send(tcpSendOptions).then(() => {
      console.log('send success');
    }).catch((err: BusinessError) => {
      console.log('send fail');
    });
  }).catch((err: BusinessError) => {
    console.log('connect fail');
  });
});

// Enable the socket connection to be automatically closed after use. Then, unsubscribe from events of the connection.
setTimeout(() => {
  tcp.close().then(() => {
    console.log('close success');
  }).catch((err: BusinessError) => {
    console.log('close fail');
  });
  tcp.off('message');
  tcp.off('connect');
  tcp.off('close');
}, 30 * 1000);
```

## Transmitting Data over TCP Socket Server Connections

The TCP socket connection process on the server is as follows:

1. Import the required socket module.
2. Create a TCP socket server connection. A **TCPSocketServer** object is returned.
3. Bind the local IP address and port, and listen for and accept TCP socket connections established over the socket.
4. Subscribe to **connect** events of the **TCPSocketServer** object to listen for client connection status changes.
5. Set up a connection between the client and the server. A **TCPSocketConnection** object is returned.
6. Subscribe to events of the **TCPSocketConnection** object, and send data to the client through the **TCPSocketConnection** object.
7. Close the connection between the client and the server.
8. Unsubscribe from events of the **TCPSocketConnection** and **TCPSocketServer** objects.

```ts
import { socket } from '@kit.NetworkKit';
import { BusinessError } from '@kit.BasicServicesKit';

// Create a TCP socket server connection. A TCPSocketServer object is returned.
let tcpServer: socket.TCPSocketServer = socket.constructTCPSocketServerInstance();
// Bind the local IP address and port number for listening.

let ipAddress : socket.NetAddress = {} as socket.NetAddress;
ipAddress.address = "192.168.xxx.xxx";
ipAddress.port = 4651;
tcpServer.listen(ipAddress).then(() => {
  console.log('listen success');
}).catch((err: BusinessError) => {
  console.log('listen fail');
});

class SocketInfo {
  message: ArrayBuffer = new ArrayBuffer(1);
  remoteInfo: socket.SocketRemoteInfo = {} as socket.SocketRemoteInfo;
}
// Subscribe to connect events of the TCPSocketServer object.
tcpServer.on("connect", (client: socket.TCPSocketConnection) => {
  // Subscribe to events of the TCPSocketConnection object.
  client.on("close", () => {
    console.log("on close success");
  });
  client.on("message", (value: SocketInfo) => {
    let buffer = value.message;
    let dataView = new DataView(buffer);
    let str = "";
    for (let i = 0; i < dataView.byteLength; ++i) {
      str += String.fromCharCode(dataView.getUint8(i));
    }
    console.log("received message--:" + str);
    console.log("received address--:" + value.remoteInfo.address);
    console.log("received family--:" + value.remoteInfo.family);
    console.log("received port--:" + value.remoteInfo.port);
    console.log("received size--:" + value.remoteInfo.size);
  });

  // Send data to the client.
  let tcpSendOptions : socket.TCPSendOptions = {} as socket.TCPSendOptions;
  tcpSendOptions.data = 'Hello, client!';
  client.send(tcpSendOptions).then(() => {
    console.log('send success');
  }).catch((err: Object) => {
    console.error('send fail: ' + JSON.stringify(err));
  });

  // Close the connection between the client and the server.
  client.close().then(() => {
    console.log('close success');
  }).catch((err: BusinessError) => {
    console.log('close fail');
  });

  // Unsubscribe from events of the TCPSocketConnection object.
  setTimeout(() => {
    client.off("message");
    client.off("close");
  }, 10 * 1000);
});

// Unsubscribe from events of the TCPSocketServer object.
setTimeout(() => {
  tcpServer.off("connect");
}, 30 * 1000);
```

## Transmitting Data over Multicast Socket Connections

1. Import the required socket module.

2. Create a **MulticastSocket** object.

3. Specify a **MulticastSocket** object by the IP address and port number, and add it to the multicast group.

4. Subscribe to **message** events.

5. Send data in broadcast mode. All **MulticastSocket** objects in the same multicast group for which **message** event listening has been enabled will receive the data.

6. Unsubscribe from **message** events.

7. Drop the **MulticastSocket** object from the multicast group.

```ts
import { socket } from '@kit.NetworkKit';

// Create a MulticastSocket object.
let multicast: socket.MulticastSocket = socket.constructMulticastSocketInstance();

let addr : socket.NetAddress = {
  address: '239.255.0.1',
  port: 32123,
  family: 1
}

// Add the MulticastSocket object to a multicast group.
multicast.addMembership(addr).then(() => {
  console.log('addMembership success');
}).catch((err: Object) => {
  console.log('addMembership fail');
});

// Subscribe to message events and convert the received data of the ArrayBuffer type to strings.
class SocketInfo {
  message: ArrayBuffer = new ArrayBuffer(1);
  remoteInfo: socket.SocketRemoteInfo = {} as socket.SocketRemoteInfo;
}
multicast.on('message', (data: SocketInfo) => {
  console.info ('Received data:' + JSON.stringify (data))
  const uintArray = new Uint8Array(data.message)
  let str = ''
  for (let i = 0; i < uintArray.length; ++i) {
    str += String.fromCharCode(uintArray[i])
  }
  console.info(str)
})

// Send data over the connection.
multicast.send({ data:'Hello12345', address: addr }).then(() => {
  console.log('send success');
}).catch((err: Object) => {
  console.log('send fail, ' + JSON.stringify(err));
});

// Unsubscribe from message events.
multicast.off('message')

// Drop the MulticastSocket object from the multicast group.
multicast.dropMembership(addr).then(() => {
  console.log('drop membership success');
}).catch((err: Object) => {
  console.log('drop membership fail');
});
```

## Transmitting Data over Local Socket Connections

1. Import the required socket module.

2. Call **constructLocalSocketInstance** to create a **LocalSocket** object.

3. Subscribe to **message** events of the **LocalSocket** object and other events (optional).

4. Connect to server based on the specified address of the local socket file.

5. Send data over the connection.

6. If the socket connection is no longer needed, unsubscribe from message events and close the connection.

2. Call **constructLocalSocketServerInstance** to create a **LocalSocketServer** object.

3. Bind the address of the local socket file.

4. Subscribe to **connect** events of the local socket client and other events (optional).

5. When the local socket client is connected, obtain the **LocalSocketConnection** object through the callback of the **connect** event.

6. Subscribe to **message** events of the **LocalSocketConnection** object and other events (optional).

7. Send messages to the local socket client through the **LocalSocketConnection** object.

8. When the communication ends, close the local socket connection.

## Implementing Encrypted Data Transmission over TLS Socket Connections

The TLS socket connection process on the client is as follows:

1. Import the required socket module.

2. Bind the server IP address and port number.

3. For two-way authentication, upload the client CA certificate and digital certificate. For one-way authentication, upload the client CA certificate.

4. Create a TLS socket connection. A **TLSsocket** object is returned.

5. (Optional) Subscribe to TLS socket connection events.

6. Send data over the connection.

7. Enable the TLS socket connection to be automatically closed after use.

## Implementing Encrypted Data Transmission by Upgrading a TCP Socket Connection to a TLS Socket Connection

The process of upgrading a TCP socket connection to a TLS socket connection is as follows:

1. Import the required socket module.

2. Create a TCP socket connection. For details, see [Transmitting Data over TCP Socket or UDP Socket Connections](#transmitting-data-over-tcp-socket-or-udp-socket-connections).

3. After the TCP socket connection is established, use the **TCPSocket** object to create a TLS socket connection. A **TLSSocket** object is returned.

4. For two-way authentication, upload the client CA certificate and digital certificate. For one-way authentication, upload the client CA certificate.

5. (Optional) Subscribe to TLS socket connection events.

6. Send data over the connection.

7. Enable the TLS socket connection to be automatically closed after use.

      return;
    }

    // After TCP socket connection is established, upgrade it to a TLS socket connection.
    let tlsTwoWay: socket.TLSSocket = socket.constructTLSSocketInstance(tcp);
    // Subscribe to events of the TLSSocket object.
    tlsTwoWay.on('message', (value: SocketInfo) => {

## Implementing Encrypted Data Transmission over TLS Socket Server Connections

The TLS socket connection process on the server is as follows:

1. Import the required socket module.

2. Start the service and bind the IP address and port number to set up a TLS socket connection. Then, create and initialize a TLS session, and load and verify the certificate key.

3. Subscribes to **TLSSocketServer** connection events.

4. Obtain a **TLSSocketConnection** object through the callback when the client initiates a TLS socket connection.

5. Subscribe to events of the **TLSSocketConnection** object.

6. Send data over the connection.

7. Close the TLS socket connection if it is no longer needed.

8. Unsubscribe from events of the **TLSSocketConnection** and **TLSSocketServer** objects.

```ts
import { socket } from '@kit.NetworkKit';
import { BusinessError } from '@kit.BasicServicesKit';

let tlsServer: socket.TLSSocketServer = socket.constructTLSSocketServerInstance();

let netAddress: socket.NetAddress = {
  address: '192.168.xx.xxx',
  port: 8080
}

  secureOptions: tlsSecureOptions,
  ALPNProtocols: ["spdy/1", "http/1.1"]
}

    let uint8Array = new Uint8Array(value.message)
    let messages = uint8Array[i]
    let message = String.fromCharCode(messages);
    messageView += message;
  }
  console.log('on message message: ' + JSON.stringify(messageView));
  console.log('remoteInfo: ' + JSON.stringify(value.remoteInfo));
}
tlsServer.on('connect', (client: socket.TLSSocketConnection) => {
  client.on('message', callback);

  // Send data over the connection.
  client.send('Hello, client!').then(() => {
    console.log('send success');
  }).catch((err: BusinessError) => {
    console.log('send fail');
  });

  // Close the connection.
  client.close().then(() => {
    console.log('close success');
  }).catch((err: BusinessError) => {
    console.log('close fail');
  });

  // You can pass the callback of the on function if you want to unsubscribe from a certain type of events. If you do not pass the callback, you will unsubscribe from all events.
  client.off('message', callback);
  client.off('message');
});

// Unsubscribe from events of the TLSSocketServer object.
tlsServer.off('connect');
```
