# Config fields, showing default values

  label: ""
  tcp_server:
    address: 127.0.0.1:0
    multipart: false
    max_buffer: 1000000
    delimiter: ""

Creates a server that receives messages over TCP. Each connection is parsed as a continuous stream of line delimited messages.

If multipart is set to false each line of data is read as a separate message. If multipart is set to true each line is read as a message part, and an empty line indicates the end of a message.

If the delimiter field is left empty then line feed (\n) is used.

The field max_buffer specifies the maximum amount of memory to allocate per connection for buffering lines of data. If a line of data from a connection exceeds this value then the connection will be closed.
