NAME
AnyEvent::CallbackStack - Convert nested callback into easy-to-read-write-and-maintain serial/procedural coding style by using Callback Stack.
SYNOPSIS
Use AnyEvent::CallbackStack with the following style.
use feature 'say';
use AnyEvent::CallbackStack;
my $cs = AnyEvent::CallbackStack->new();
$cs->start( %foo );
$cs->add( sub {
do_something;
$cs->next( $bar, $yohoo );
});
$cv = $cs->last;
return $cv;
# or
http_get http://BlueT.org => sub { $cs->start($_[0]) };
$cs->add( sub { say $_[0]->recv } );
# or
$cs->add( sub { say 'I got the ball'; $cs->next( $_[0]->recv ); } )
print 'Your name please?: ';
chomp(my $in = <STDIN>);
$cs->start($in);
$cs->add( sub { say "Lucky you, $_[0]->recv" } );
# or
my $cs = AE::CS;
METHODS
new
No paramater needed.
my $cs = new AnyEvent::CallbackStack;
start
Start and walk through the Callback Stack from step 0.
$cs->start( 'foo' );
add
Add (append) callback into the Callback Stack.
$cs->add( $code_ref );
next
Check out from the current step and pass value to the next callback in callback stack.
$cs->next( @result );
IMPORTANT: Remember that only if you call this method, the next callback in stack will be triggered.
step
Experimental.
Start the callback flow from the specified step.
$cs->step( 3, @data );
last
Get the very last AnyEvent::CondVar object.
Usually it's called when you are writing a module and need to return it to your caller.
my $cv = $cs->last;
# or
return $cs->last;
SHORTCUT AE::CS API
Inspired by AE. Starting with version 0.05, AnyEvent::CallbackStack officially supports a second, much simpler in name, API that is designed to reduce the typing.
There is No Magic like what AE has on reducing calling and memory overhead.
See the AE::CS manpage for details.
my $cs = AE::CS;
