DESCRIPTION

This role provides a uniform even callback mechanism for classes in AnyEvent::FTP. You declare events by using the define_events method. Once declared you can use on_event_name to add a callback to a particular event and emit to trigger those callbacks.

METHODS

define_events

__PACKAGE__->define_events( @list_of_event_names );

This is called within the class package to declare the event names for all events used by the class. It creates methods of the form on_event_name which can be used to add callbacks to events.

emit

$obj->emit($event_name, @arguments);

This calls the callbacks associated with the given $event_name. It will pass to that callback the given @arguments.
