NAME

Mojo::IOLoop::Stream::Role::LineBuffer - Read and write streams by lines

SYNOPSIS

use Mojo::IOLoop;
Mojo::IOLoop->client({port => 3000} => sub {
  my ($loop, $err, $stream) = @_;
  $stream->with_roles('+LineBuffer')->watch_lines->on(read_line => sub {
    my ($stream, $line) = @_;
    say "Received line: $line";
    $stream->write_line('Line received');
  });
});

DESCRIPTION

Mojo::IOLoop::Stream::Role::LineBuffer composes the method "watch_lines" which causes a Mojo::IOLoop::Stream object to emit the "read_line" event for each line received. The "write_line" method is also provided to add a line separator to the passed data before writing.

EVENTS

Mojo::IOLoop::Stream::Role::LineBuffer can emit the following events.

read_line

$stream->on(read_line => sub {
  my ($stream, $line, $separator) = @_;
  ...
});

Emitted when a line ending in "read_line_separator" arrives on the stream, and when the stream closes if data is still buffered. The separator is passed as a separate argument if present.

ATTRIBUTES

Mojo::IOLoop::Stream::Role::LineBuffer composes the following attributes.

read_line_separator

my $separator = $stream->read_line_separator;
$stream       = $stream->read_line_separator(qr/\x0D\x0A/);

Regular expression to indicate new lines in received bytes. Defaults to a newline (LF) character optionally preceded by a CR character (\x0D?\x0A). Note that if you set this to the generic newline or \v (vertical whitespace), this may match the CR character of a CR/LF sequence and consider the LF as a separate line if they are read separately.

write_line_separator

my $separator = $stream->write_line_separator;
$stream       = $stream->write_line_separator("\x0A");

Byte sequence to indicate new lines in data written with "write_line". Defaults to the network newline CR/LF (\x0D\x0A).

METHODS

Mojo::IOLoop::Stream::Role::LineBuffer composes the following methods.

watch_lines

$stream = $stream->watch_lines;

Subscribe to the "read" in Mojo::IOLoop::Stream and "close" in Mojo::IOLoop::Stream events, to buffer received bytes and emit "read_line" when "read_line_separator" is encountered or the stream is closed with buffered data.

write_line

$stream = $stream->write_line($bytes);
$stream = $stream->write_line($bytes => sub {...});

Write a line to the stream by appending "write_line_separator" to the data. The optional drain callback will be executed once all data has been written.
