NAME
AnyEvent::ForkObject - Async access on objects.
SYNOPSIS
use AnyEvent::ForkObject;
use DBI;
my $fo = new AnyEvent::ForkObject;
$fo->do(
module => 'DBI',
method => 'connect',
args => [ 'dbi:mysql...' ],
cb => sub {
my ($status, $dbh) = @_;
$dbh->selectrow_array('SELECT ?', undef, 1 + 1, sub {
my ($status, $result) = @_;
print "$result\n"; # prints 2
});
}
);
use AnyEvent::Tools qw(async_repeat);
$dbh->prepare('SELECT * FROM tbl', sub {
my ($status, $sth) = @_;
$sth->execute(sub {
my ($status, $rv) = @_;
# fetch 30 rows
async_repeat 30 => sub {
my ($guard) = @_;
$sth->fetchrow_hashref(sub {
my ($status, $row) = @_;
undef $guard;
# do something with $row
});
};
});
});
DESCRIPTION
There are a lot of modules that provide object interface. Using the module You can use them in async mode.
METHODS
new
Constructor. Creates an instance that contains fork jail.
do
Creates an object inside jail. It receives the following named arguments:
- require
-
Do require inside jail. If the argument is exists, module, method and wantarray arguments will be ignored.
- module
-
Module name. For example 'DBI'.
- method
-
Constructor name. Default value is 'new'.
- wantarray
-
Context for method. Default is 0 (SCALAR).
- cb
-
Done callback. The first argument is a status:
- die
-
The method has thrown exception. The next argument contains $@.
- fatal
-
A fatal error was occured (for example fork jail was killed).
- ok
-
Method has done. The following arguments contain all data that were returned by the method.
If "method" returns blessed object, it will provide all its methods in modified form. Each method will receive one or two additional arguments:
- result callback
-
A callback that will be called after method has done.
- wantarray
-
Context flag for method. Default value is 0 (SCALAR).
All objects provide additional method fo_attr to access their field. Example:
# set attribute
$dbh->fo_attr(RaiseError => 1, sub { my ($status, $attr) = @_; ... });
# get attribute
$dbh->fo_attr('RaiseError', sub { my ($status, $attr) = @_; ... });
