--[[ A telnet server T. Ellison, May 2018
This version is more complex than the simple Lua example previously provided in our
distro. The main reason is that a single Lua command can produce a LOT of output,
and the server has to work within four constraints:
- The SDK rules are that you can only issue one send per task invocation, so any
overflow must be buffered, and the buffer emptied using an on:sent cb
- Since the interpeter invokes a node.output cb per field, you have a double
whammy that these fields are typically small, so using a simple array FIFO
would rapidly exhaust RAM.
- For network efficiency, you want to aggregate any FIFO buffered into sensible
sized packet, say 1024 bytes, but you also need to handle the case when larger
string span multiple packets. However, you must flush the buffer if necessary.
- The overall buffering strategy needs to be reasonably memory efficient and avoid
hitting the GC too hard, so where practical avoid aggregating small strings to
more than 256 chars (as NodeMCU handles <256 using stack buffers), and avoid
serial aggregation such as buf = buf .. str as this hammers the GC.
So this server adopts a simple buffering scheme using a two level FIFO. The node.output
cb adds cb records to the 1st level FIFO until the #recs is > 32 or the total size
would exceed 256 bytes. Once over this threashold, the contents of the FIFO are
concatenated into a 2nd level FIFO entry of upto 256 bytes, and the 1st level FIFO
cleared down to any residue.
