libhv

Like libevent, libev, and libuv, libhv provides event-loop with non-blocking IO and timer, but simpler api and richer protocols.

✨ Features

Cross-platform (Linux, Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, BSD, Solaris)
High-performance EventLoop (IO, timer, idle, custom, signal)
TCP/UDP client/server/proxy
TCP supports heartbeat, reconnect, upstream, MultiThread-safe write and close, etc.
Built-in common unpacking modes (FixedLength, Delimiter, LengthField)
RUDP support: WITH_KCP
SSL/TLS support: (via WITH_OPENSSL or WITH_GNUTLS or WITH_MBEDTLS)
HTTP client/server (support https http1/x http2 grpc)
HTTP supports static service, indexof service, forward/reverse proxy service, sync/async API handler
HTTP supports RESTful, router, middleware, keep-alive, chunked, SSE, etc.
WebSocket client/server
MQTT client
