NAME¶

Mojo::Reactor::EV - Low level event reactor with libev support

SYNOPSIS¶

  use Mojo::Reactor::EV;
  # Watch if handle becomes readable or writable
  my $reactor = Mojo::Reactor::EV->new;
  $reactor->io($handle => sub {
    my ($reactor, $writable) = @_;
    say $writable ? 'Handle is writable' : 'Handle is readable';
  });
  # Add a timer
  $reactor->timer(15 => sub {
    my $reactor = shift;
    $reactor->remove($handle);
    say 'Timeout!';
  });
  # Start reactor if necessary
  $reactor->start unless $reactor->is_running;

DESCRIPTION¶

Mojo::Reactor::EV is a low level event reactor based on EV.

EVENTS¶

Mojo::Reactor::EV inherits all events from Mojo::Reactor::Poll.

METHODS¶

Mojo::Reactor::EV inherits all methods from Mojo::Reactor::Poll and implements the following new ones.

"new"¶

  my $reactor = Mojo::Reactor::EV->new;

Construct a new Mojo::Reactor::EV object.

"is_running"¶

  my $success = $reactor->is_running;

Check if reactor is running.

"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.

"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.

"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.

"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.
