DESCRIPTION

EventEmitter role for Evo classes

SYNOPSYS

  package main;
  use Evo;

  {

    package My::Class;
    use Evo '-Class *';
    with '-Ee';

    # define available events
    sub ee_events {qw( connection close )}

  }

  my $comp = My::Class->new();

  # subscribe on the event
  $comp->on(connection => sub($self, $id) { say "got $id" });

  # emit event
  $comp->emit(connection => 'MyID');

REQUIREMENTS

This role requires method ee_events to be implemented in a derived class. It should return a list of available event names. Each invocation of "on" and "ee_remove" will be compared with this list and in case it doesn't exist an exception will be thrown

  # throws Not recognized event "coNNection"
  $comp->on(coNNection => sub($self, $id) { say "got $id" });

This will prevent people who use your class from the most common mistake in EventEmitter pattern.

METHODS

on

Subscbibe

  $comp->on(connection => sub($self, @args) { say "$self got: " . join ';', @args });

The name of the event will be checked using ee_events, which should be implemented by Evo class and return a list of available names

emit

Emit an event. The object will be passed to the event as the first argument, you can provide additional argument to the subscriber

  $comp->emit(connection => 'arg1', 'arg2');

ee_add

ee_remove

Add and remove listener from the event by the name and subroutine.

  my $ref = $comp->ee_add(connection => sub {"here"});
  $comp->ee_remove($ref);

The name of the event will be checked using ee_events, which should be implemented by class and return a list of available names

Don't use in the event (or weaken ref if you need to use it)

ee_remove_current

  $comp->ee_add(
    connection => sub($self) {
      $self->ee_remove_current;
    }
  );

When called in the event, remove current event. Die outside an event

ee_listeners

  my @listeners =  $comp->ee_listeners('connection');

A list of listeners of the event. Right now a name wouldn't be checked, but this can be changed in the future

ee_check

  $comp = $comp->ee_check('connection');

Check the event. If it wasn't in the derivered list returned by ee_events, an exception will be thrown.
