Reflex::Role::Writable(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Reflex::Role::Writable(3)

Reflex::Role::Writable - add writable-watching behavior to a class

This document describes version 0.100, released on April 02, 2017.

        use Moose;

        has socket => ( is => 'rw', isa => 'FileHandle', required => 1 );

        with 'Reflex::Role::Writable' => {
                handle   => 'socket',
                cb_ready => 'on_socket_writable',
                active   => 1,
        };

        sub on_socket_writable {
                my ($self, $arg) = @_;
                print "Socket $arg->{handle} is ready for data.\n";
                $self->pause_socket_writabe();
        }

Reflex::Role::Writable is a Moose parameterized role that adds writable-watching behavior to Reflex-based classes. In the SYNOPSIS, a filehandle named "socket" is watched for writability. The method on_socket_writable() is called when data becomes available.

TODO - Explain the difference between role-based and object-based composition.

handle

The "handle" parameter must contain the name of the attribute that holds the handle to watch. The name indirection allows the role to generate methods that are unique to the handle. For example, a handle named "XYZ" would generates these methods by default:

        cb_ready      => "on_XYZ_writable",
        method_pause  => "pause_XYZ_writable",
        method_resume => "resume_XYZ_writable",
        method_stop   => "stop_XYZ_writable",

This naming convention allows the role to be used for more than one handle in the same class. Each handle will have its own name, and the mixed in methods associated with them will also be unique.

active

"active" specifies whether the Reflex::Role::Writable watcher should be enabled when it's initialized. All Reflex watchers are enabled by default. Set it to a false value, preferably 0, to initialize the watcher in an inactive or paused mode.

Writability watchers may be paused and resumed. See "method_pause" and "method_resume" for ways to override the default method names.

cb_ready

"cb_ready" names the $self method that will be called whenever "handle" has space for more data to be written. By default, it's the catenation of "on_", the "handle" name, and "_writable". A handle named "XYZ" will by default trigger on_XYZ_writable() callbacks.

        handle => "socket",  # on_socket_writable()
        handle => "XYZ",     # on_XYZ_writable()

All Reflex parameterized role callbacks are invoked with two parameters: $self and an anonymous hashref of named values specific to the callback. "cb_ready" callbacks include a single named value, "handle", that contains the filehandle from which has become ready for writing.

"handle" is the handle itself, not the handle attribute's name.

method_pause

"method_pause" sets the name of the method that may be used to pause the watcher. It is "pause_${handle}_writable" by default.

method_resume

"method_resume" may be used to resume paused writability watchers, or to activate them if they are started in an inactive state.

method_stop

"method_stop" may be used to stop readability watchers. These watchers may not be restarted once they've been stopped. If you want to pause and resume watching, see "method_pause" and "method_resume".

TODO - I'm sure there are some.
