FIO.Sockets

NuGet Run Tests License: MIT

TCP sockets for FIO. Connect, send, and receive as composable effects — connections are scoped and released for you, and failures surface as a typed SocketError rather than raw exceptions.

  • Client connections — SocketClient.withConnectionTo / withConnection scope a socket's lifetime
  • Server — ServerSocket.bind / accept / close for manual control, or ServerSocket.serve / acceptLoop to run a handler per connection with bounded concurrency, closing the server when interrupted
  • Custom codecs — send and receive typed messages, not just strings

Install

dotnet add package FSharp.FIO.Sockets

Quick Start

open FIO.DSL
open FIO.Sockets

let program =
    SocketClient.withConnectionTo "localhost" 8080 (fun socket ->
        fio {
            do! socket.SendString "Hello, server!"
            return! socket.ReceiveString 1024
        })

Server

open FIO.DSL
open FIO.Sockets

let server = fio {
    let! config = ServerSocketConfig.create "localhost" 8080
    let! serverSocket = ServerSocket.bind config
    let! clientSocket = ServerSocket.accept serverSocket
    let! message = clientSocket.ReceiveString 1024
    do! clientSocket.SendString $"echo: {message}"
    do! ServerSocket.close serverSocket
}

Errors

Operations fail with a typed SocketError — ConnectionFailed, ConnectionClosed, SendFailed, ReceiveFailed, TimeoutError, BufferOverflow, InvalidState, BindFailed, AcceptFailed, CodecError, GeneralError — with SocketError.fromException / SocketError.toException to bridge raw exceptions. InvalidState also covers argument validation (an empty host, a port out of range, a non-positive buffer size); BufferOverflow is raised when a line or frame exceeds the buffer you passed.

Connection pooling is not implemented yet: SocketPoolConfig and the PoolExhausted / PoolClosed error cases are reserved for it and are not produced by any current operation.
