DESCRIPTION

Mojo::Reactor::Poll is a low level event reactor based on IO::Poll.

EVENTS

Mojo::Reactor::Poll inherits all events from Mojo::Reactor.

METHODS

Mojo::Reactor::Poll inherits all methods from Mojo::Reactor and implements the following new ones.

io

  $reactor = $reactor->io($handle => sub {...});

Watch handle for I/O events, invoking the callback whenever handle becomes readable or writable.

is_running

  my $success = $reactor->is_running;

Check if reactor is running.

one_tick

  $reactor->one_tick;

Run reactor for roughly one tick. Note that this method can recurse back into the reactor, so you need to be careful.

recurring

  my $id = $reactor->recurring(0.25 => sub {...});

Create a new recurring timer, invoking the callback repeatedly after a given amount of time in seconds.

remove

  my $success = $reactor->remove($handle);
  my $success = $reactor->remove($id);

Remove handle or timer.

start

  $reactor->start;

Start watching for I/O and timer events, this will block until stop is called or no events are being watched anymore.

stop

  $reactor->stop;

Stop watching for I/O and timer events.

timer

  my $id = $reactor->timer(0.5 => sub {...});

Create a new timer, invoking the callback after a given amount of time in seconds.

watch

  $reactor = $reactor->watch($handle, $readable, $writable);

Change I/O events to watch handle for with true and false values.
