NAME

UniEvent::Check - run the given callback once per loop iteration, right after polling for i/o.

SYNOPSIS

            

              
              
my $h = UniEvent::Check->new($loop);
$h->event->add(sub { say 'hello' });
$h->start;
$loop->run_nowait;  # prints 'hello'
$loop->run_nowait;  # prints 'hello' again
$h->stop;
$loop->run_nowait;  # no effect
$h = UE::check sub { ... }, $loop;
            
          

DESCRIPTION

The Check handle is useful for doing post-I/O actions for a loop. It is inherited from UniEvent::Handle.

METHODS

All methods of UniEvent::Handle also apply.

create($callback, [$loop = default])

            

              
              
my $handle = UniEvent::Check->create(sub { say "hi" });
            
          

Creates and starts a check handle. Alias for new($loop) + start($callback).

new([$loop = default])

Constructs new Check handle and binds it to the specified event loop

start([$callback])

Starts the check handle, i.e. makes it active for the next even loop iteration. Optionally it adds the $callback to the event listeners.

stop()

Stops the check handle, i.e. makes it inactive for the next event loop iteration.

callback($sub)

event()

Callback signature:

            

              
              
my $handle = shift; # the "check" handle itself
            
          

See "EVENT CALLBACKS" in UniEvent

event_listener($delegate, [$weak])

Method on_check will be called.

See "EVENT LISTENER" in UniEvent

call_now()

Immediately invokes assigned callbacks and listeners.
