NAME
Mojo::Reactor::IOAsync - IO::Async backend for Mojo::Reactor
SYNOPSIS
use Mojo::Reactor::IOAsync;
# Watch if handle becomes readable or writable
my $reactor = Mojo::Reactor::IOAsync->new;
$reactor->io($first => sub {
my ($reactor, $writable) = @_;
say $writable ? 'First handle is writable' : 'First handle is readable';
});
# Change to watching only if handle becomes writable
$reactor->watch($first, 0, 1);
# Turn file descriptor into handle and watch if it becomes readable
my $second = IO::Handle->new_from_fd($fd, 'r');
$reactor->io($second => sub {
my ($reactor, $writable) = @_;
say $writable ? 'Second handle is writable' : 'Second handle is readable';
})->watch($second, 1, 0);
# Add a timer
$reactor->timer(15 => sub {
my $reactor = shift;
$reactor->remove($first);
$reactor->remove($second);
say 'Timeout!';
});
# Start reactor if necessary
$reactor->start unless $reactor->is_running;
# Or in an application using Mojo::IOLoop
use Mojo::Reactor::IOAsync;
use Mojo::IOLoop;
# Or in a Mojolicious application
$ MOJO_REACTOR=Mojo::Reactor::IOAsync hypnotoad script/myapp
DESCRIPTION
Mojo::Reactor::IOAsync is an event reactor for Mojo::IOLoop that uses IO::Async. The usage is exactly the same as other Mojo::Reactor implementations such as Mojo::Reactor::Poll. Mojo::Reactor::IOAsync will be used as the default backend for Mojo::IOLoop if it is loaded before Mojo::IOLoop or any module using the loop. However, when invoking a Mojolicious application through morbo or hypnotoad, the reactor must be set as the default by setting the MOJO_REACTOR
environment variable to Mojo::Reactor::IOAsync
.
EVENTS
Mojo::Reactor::IOAsync inherits all events from Mojo::Reactor.
METHODS
Mojo::Reactor::IOAsync inherits all methods from Mojo::Reactor and implements the following new ones.
again
$reactor->again($id);
Restart timer. Note that this method requires an active timer.
io
$reactor = $reactor->io($handle => sub {...});
Watch handle for I/O events, invoking the callback whenever handle becomes readable or writable.
# Callback will be invoked twice if handle becomes readable and writable
$reactor->io($handle => sub {
my ($reactor, $writable) = @_;
say $writable ? 'Handle is writable' : 'Handle is readable';
});
is_running
my $bool = $reactor->is_running;
Check if reactor is running.
new
my $reactor = Mojo::Reactor::IOAsync->new;
Construct a new Mojo::Reactor::IOAsync object.
next_tick
my $undef = $reactor->next_tick(sub {...});
Invoke callback as soon as possible, but not before returning or other callbacks that have been registered with this method, always returns undef
.
one_tick
$reactor->one_tick;
Run reactor until an event occurs or no events are being watched anymore. Note that this method can recurse back into the reactor, so you need to be careful.
# Don't block longer than 0.5 seconds
my $id = $reactor->timer(0.5 => sub {});
$reactor->one_tick;
$reactor->remove($id);
recurring
my $id = $reactor->recurring(0.25 => sub {...});
Create a new recurring timer, invoking the callback repeatedly after a given amount of time in seconds.
remove
my $bool = $reactor->remove($handle);
my $bool = $reactor->remove($id);
Remove handle or timer.
reset
$reactor->reset;
Remove all handles and timers.
start
$reactor->start;
Start watching for I/O and timer events, this will block until "stop" is called or no events are being watched anymore. See "CAVEATS".
# Start reactor only if it is not running already
$reactor->start unless $reactor->is_running;
stop
$reactor->stop;
Stop watching for I/O and timer events.
timer
my $id = $reactor->timer(0.5 => sub {...});
Create a new timer, invoking the callback after a given amount of time in seconds.
watch
$reactor = $reactor->watch($handle, $readable, $writable);
Change I/O events to watch handle for with true and false values. Note that this method requires an active I/O watcher.
# Watch only for readable events
$reactor->watch($handle, 1, 0);
# Watch only for writable events
$reactor->watch($handle, 0, 1);
# Watch for readable and writable events
$reactor->watch($handle, 1, 1);
# Pause watching for events
$reactor->watch($handle, 0, 0);
CAVEATS
When using Mojo::IOLoop with IO::Async, the event loop must be controlled by Mojo::IOLoop or Mojo::Reactor::IOAsync, such as with the methods "start", "stop", and "one_tick". Starting or stopping the event loop through IO::Async will not provide required functionality to Mojo::IOLoop applications.
Externally-added IO::Async notifiers will keep the Mojo::IOLoop loop running if they are added to the event loop as a notifier, see "NOTIFIER MANAGEMENT" in IO::Async::Loop.
