NAME¶

"IO::Async::Protocol::LineStream" - stream-based protocols using lines of text

SYNOPSIS¶

Most likely this class will be subclassed to implement a particular network protocol.

 package Net::Async::HelloWorld;
 use strict;
 use warnings;
 use base qw( IO::Async::Protocol::LineStream );
 sub on_read_line
 {
    my $self = shift;
    my ( $line ) = @_;
    if( $line =~ m/^HELLO (.*)/ ) {
       my $name = $1;
       $self->invoke_event( on_hello => $name );
    }
 }
 sub send_hello
 {
    my $self = shift;
    my ( $name ) = @_;
    $self->write_line( "HELLO $name" );
 }

This small example elides such details as error handling, which a real protocol implementation would be likely to contain.

DESCRIPTION¶

EVENTS¶

The following events are invoked, either using subclass methods or CODE references in parameters:

on_read_line $line¶

Invoked when a new complete line of input is received.

PARAMETERS¶

The following named parameters may be passed to "new" or "configure":

on_read_line => CODE¶

CODE reference for the "on_read_line" event.

METHODS¶

$lineprotocol->write_line( $text )¶

Writes a line of text to the transport stream. The text will have the end-of-line marker appended to it; $text should not end with it.
