```

Provide optional `host`, `port` and `size` arguments in constructor or use available setters after object initiation.

```

#### Server::getSize
#### Server::setLive
#### Server::getLive

#### Server::start

Run server object using this method.

Define handler function as the argument to process application logic dependent of client request.

``` php
$server->start(
    function (
        string $request,
        string $connect
    ): ?string
    {
        printf(
            'connection: %s request: %s',
            $connect,
            $request
        );

        return null; // null|string response
    }
);
```

#### Server::stop

Stop server instance.

Same to `Server::setLive(false)`
