NAME

Data::Stream::Bulk::DoneFlag - Implement the is_done method in terms of a flag

SYNOPSIS

package Data::Stream::Bulk::Blah;
use Moose;

with qw(Data::Stream::Bulk::DoneFlag);

sub get_more {
	if ( my @more = more() ) {
		return \@more;
	} else {
		return;
	}
}

DESCRIPTION

This role implements the Data::Stream::Bulk core API in terms of one method (get_more).

As a convenience it calls finished when the stream is exhausted, so that cleanup may be done.

This is used by classes like Data::Stream::Bulk::DBI, Data::Stream::Bulk::Callback.

METHODS

is_done

Returns the state of the iterator.

next

As long as the iterator is not yet done, calls get_more.

If get_more returned a false value instead of an array reference then done is set, finished is called, and this next does nothing on subsequent calls.

finished

A noop by default. Can be overridden if so desired.

REQUIRED_METHODS

get_more

Returns the next block of data as an array ref, or a false value if no items are left.
