NAME

MooseX::POE - 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.
