NAME

dtRdr::Callbacks::Book - the callbacks object for books

SYNOPSIS

Just using the module will typically do everything you need.

  use dtRdr::Callbacks::Book;

This installs callback() and get_callbacks() methods in your class. The callback() method is for adding to your class's callbacks.

  YourClass->callback->set_foo_sub(sub {...});

The get_callbacks() methods aggregates your classes callbacks with your base class. If your plugin has no specific callbacks, you can just inherit it, but this is not recommended.

To run the 'foo' callback (which will either be specific to your class, your base class, or else the default), just:

  YourClass->get_callbacks->foo($args);

Alternatively, the standalone usage:

  use dtRdr::Callbacks::Book (); # suppress import()
  my $callbacks = dtRdr::Callbacks::Book->new();
  $callbacks->set_core_link_sub(sub {"foo://" . $_[0]});

  # later ...

  my $link = $callback->core_link($book, 'dr_note_link.png');

new

  my $callbacks = dtRdr::Callbacks::Book->new();

aggregate

Overwrites each property (from right to left) and returns an aggregated callback object. List types are appended rather than overwritten.

  my $all_callbacks = $callback->aggregate($and1, $and2, $and3);

Callbacks

The documentation for each callback here should also serve as your custom callback's prototype.

XML things

Create a uri to a core file (such as an icon.) The default is to prepend 'dr://CORE/'.

  my $link = $callbacks->core_link($item);

img_src_rewrite

Rewrites the img tag's src uri (such as into a base-64 encoded form.) The default just parrots the $uri with which it was called.

  $uri = $callbacks->img_src_rewrite($uri, $book);

Annotation Events

annotation_created

  $callbacks->annotation_created($anno);

annotation_changed

  $callbacks->annotation_changed($anno);

annotation_deleted

  $callbacks->annotation_deleted($anno);

Meta

These methods let you add to the callback object, though it is best to define the methods in this package as above.

define

Define a callback and the default subref.

  dtRdr::Callbacks::Book->define('name', sub {...});

For multi-entry callbacks, the second argument is a (possibly empty) array reference.

has

Returns true if some method (other than the default) has been installed under $name. For multi-sub callbacks, returns true if one or more is installed (whether it is the default or not.)

  $callbacks->has($name);

import

Calls install_in() on your current package.

  use dtRdr::Callbacks::Book;

install_in

  dtRdr::Callbacks::Book->install_in($class);
