NAME

Future::Mojo - use Future with Mojo::IOLoop

SYNOPSIS


            

              
              
use Future::Mojo;
use Mojo::IOLoop;
my $loop = Mojo::IOLoop->new;
my $future = Future::Mojo->new($loop);
$loop->timer(3 => sub { $future->done('Done') });
print $future->get, "\n";

DESCRIPTION

This subclass of Future stores a reference to the associated Mojo::IOLoop instance, allowing the await method to block until the Future is ready.

For a full description on how to use Futures, see the Future documentation.

CONSTRUCTORS

new


            

              
              
my $future = Future::Mojo->new;
my $future = Future::Mojo->new($loop);

Returns a new Future. Uses "singleton" in Mojo::IOLoop if no loop is specified.

new_timer


            

              
              
my $future = Future::Mojo->new_timer($seconds);
my $future = Future::Mojo->new_timer($loop, $seconds);

Returns a new Future that will become ready after the specified delay. Uses "singleton" in Mojo::IOLoop if no loop is specified.

new_timeout


            

              
              
my $future = Future::Mojo->new_timeout($seconds);
my $future = Future::Mojo->new_timeout($loop, $seconds);

Returns a new Future that will fail after the specified delay. Uses "singleton" in Mojo::IOLoop if no loop is specified.

METHODS

Future::Mojo inherits all methods from Future and implements the following new ones.

loop


            

              
              
$loop = $future->loop;

Returns the underlying Mojo::IOLoop object.

await


            

              
              
$future->await;

Runs the underlying Mojo::IOLoop until the future is ready. If the event loop is already running, an exception is thrown.

done_next_tick


            

              
              
$future = $future->done_next_tick(@result);

A shortcut to calling the "done" in Future method on the "next_tick" in Mojo::IOLoop. Ensures that a returned Future object is not ready immediately, but will wait for the next I/O round.

fail_next_tick


            

              
              
$future = $future->fail_next_tick($exception, @details);

A shortcut to calling the "fail" in Future method on the "next_tick" in Mojo::IOLoop. Ensures that a returned Future object is not ready immediately, but will wait for the next I/O round.

promisify


            

              
              
my $promise = $future->promisify;

Composed from Future::Role::Promisify.
