MooseX::POE(3) The Illicit Love Child of Moose and POE

VERSION

version 0.215

SYNOPSIS


package Counter;
use MooseX::POE;
has count => (
isa => 'Int',
is => 'rw',
lazy => 1,
default => sub { 0 },
);
sub START {
my ($self) = @_;
$self->yield('increment');
}
event increment => sub {
my ($self) = @_;
print "Count is now " . $self->count . "\n";
$self->count( $self->count + 1 );
$self->yield('increment') unless $self->count > 3;
};
no MooseX::POE;
Counter->new();
POE::Kernel->run();

or with MooseX::Declare: 

    class Counter {
        use MooseX::POE::SweetArgs qw(event);
        
        has count => (
            isa     => 'Int',
            is      => 'rw',
            lazy    => 1,
            default => sub { 0 },
        );
        
        sub START { 
            my ($self) = @_;
            $self->yield('increment')  
        }
        
        event increment => sub {
            my ($self) = @_;
            print "Count is now " . $self->count . "\n";
            $self->count( $self->count + 1 );
            $self->yield('increment') unless $self->count > 3;            
        }
    }
    Counter->new();
    POE::Kernel->run();

DESCRIPTION

MooseX::POE is a Moose wrapper around a POE::Session.

METHODS

event $name $subref

Create an event handler named $name.

get_session_id

Get the internal POE Session ID, this is useful to hand to other POE aware functions.

yield

call

delay

alarm

alarm_add

delay_add

alarm_set

alarm_adjust

alarm_remove

alarm_remove_all

delay_set

delay_adjust

A cheap alias for the same POE::Kernel function which will gurantee posting to the object's session.

STARTALL

STOPALL

KEYWORDS

METHODS

Default POE-related methods are provided by MooseX::POE::Meta::Trait::Object which is applied to your base class (which is usually Moose::Object) when you use this module. See that module for the documentation for. Below is a list of methods on that class so you know what to look for:

NOTES ON USAGE WITH MooseX::Declare

MooseX::Declare support is still ``experimental''. Meaning that I don't use it, I don't have any code that uses it, and thus I can't adequately say that it won't cause monkeys to fly out of any orifices on your body beyond what the tests and the SYNOPSIS cover.

That said there are a few caveats that have turned up during testing.

1. The "method" keyword doesn't seem to work as expected. This is an integration issue that is being resolved but I want to wait for MooseX::Declare to gain some more polish on their slurpy arguments.

2. MooseX::POE attempts to re-export Moose, which MooseX::Declare has already exported in a custom fashion. This means that you'll get a keyword clash between the features that MooseX::Declare handles for you and the features that Moose handles. To work around this you'll need to write: 

    use MooseX::POE qw(event);
    # or
    use MooseX::POE::SweetArgs qw(event);
    # or 
    use MooseX::POE::Role qw(event);

to keep MooseX::POE from exporting the sugar that MooseX::Declare doesn't like. This is fixed in the Git version of MooseX::Declare but that version (as of this writing) is not on the CPAN.
