Inherits: RefCounted < Object
A TCP server.
Description¶
A TCP server. Listens to connections on a port and returns a StreamPeerTCP when it gets an incoming connection.
Note: When exporting to Android, make sure to enable the INTERNET permission in the Android export preset before exporting the project or using one-click deploy. Otherwise, network communication of any kind will be blocked by Android.

Method Descriptions¶
Returns the local port this server is listening to.
bool is_connection_available() const 🔗
Returns true if a connection is available for taking.
Returns true if the server is currently listening for connections.
Error listen(port: int, bind_address: String = "*") 🔗
Listen on the port binding to bind_address.
If bind_address is set as "*" (default), the server will listen on all available addresses (both IPv4 and IPv6).
If bind_address is set as "0.0.0.0" (for IPv4) or "::" (for IPv6), the server will listen on all available addresses matching that IP type.
If bind_address is set to any valid address (e.g. "192.168.1.101", "::1", etc.), the server will only listen on the interface with that address (or fail if no interface with the given address exists).
void stop() 🔗
Stops listening.
StreamPeerTCP take_connection() 🔗
If a connection is available, returns a StreamPeerTCP with the connection.
