NAME
Exobrain::Agent - Agent role for Exobrain agents
VERSION
version 1.08
SYNOPSIS
use Moose;
with 'Exobrain::Agent';DESCRIPTION
This role provides a number of utility methods and attributes to Exobrain agents. Most agents will prefer to use the Exobrain::Agent::Poll or Exobrain::Agent::Run roles instead, and which in turn consume this role and hence provide its functionality.
Where possible, all attributes provided by this role are lazily generated, including lazily loading modules.
METHODS
exobrain
$self->exobrain->watch_loop(...);Returns an Exobrain object.
component
my $component = $self->component;Exobrain components all share the same configuration and cache, and are often packaged as separate distributions. This method returns the current component name.
By default this is the same as the class name with 'Exobrain::Agent::' stripped off. Agents and roles which are part of a specific component should override this attribute (or supply their own default).
config
my $user = $self->config->{user};Returns the config for our current component. Use $self-exobrain->config> instead if you want the top-level config.
cache
my $cache = $self->cache;Returns an Exobrain::Cache object, with a namespace of $self-component>.
json
my $json = $self->json;Returns a JSON::Any object.
