This provides Node.js style events in a Role for Moose.
MooseX::Event is implemented as a Moose Role. To add events to your object:
use MooseX::Event;
It provides a helper declare what events your object supports:
has_event 'event'; ## or has_events qw( event1 event2 event3 );
Users of your class can now call the "on" method in order to register an event handler:
$obj->on( event1 => sub { say "I has an event"; } );
And clear their event listeners with:
$obj->remove_all_listeners( "event1" );
Or add and clear just one listener:
my $listener = $obj->on( event1 => sub { say "Event here"; } ); $obj->remove_listener( event1 => $listener );
You can trigger events from your class with the "emit" method:
$self->emit( event1 => ( "arg1", "arg2", "argn" ) );
You can remove the has_event and has_events helpers by unimporting MooseX::Event
no MooseX::event;
Wrappers are called in reverse declaration order. They take a the listener to be added as an argument, and return a wrapped listener.
Removes a previously added listener wrapper.
Registers your class as being able to emit the event names listed.
