NAME

MooseX::Event::Role - A Node style event Role for Moose

VERSION

version v0.2.0

DESCRIPTION

This is the role that MooseX::Event extends your class with. All classes using MooseX::Event will have these methods, attributes and events.

EVENTS

new_listener( Str $event, CodeRef $listener )

Called when a listener is added. $event is the name of the event being listened to, and $listener is the listener being installed.

ATTRIBUTES

our Str $.current_event is rw

This is the name of the current event being triggered, or undef if no event is being triggered.

METHODS

our method event_exists( Str $event ) returns Bool

Returns true if $event is a valid event name for this class.

our method on( Str $event, CodeRef $listener ) returns CodeRef

Registers $listener as a listener on $event. When $event is emitted ALL registered listeners are executed.

Returns the listener coderef.

our method once( Str $event, CodeRef $listener ) returns CodeRef

Registers $listener as a listener on $event. Event listeners registered via once will emit only once.

Returns the listener coderef.

our method emit( Str $event, Array[Any] *@args )

Normally called within the class using the MooseX::Event role. This calls all of the registered listeners on $event with @args.

If you're using coroutines then each listener will get its own thread and emit will cede before returning.

our method remove_all_listeners( Str $event )

Removes all listeners for $event

our method remove_listener( Str $event, CodeRef $listener )

Removes $listener from $event
