=head1 DESCRIPTION |
24 |
|
|
|
25 |
root |
1.2 |
L<AnyEvent> provides an identical interface to multiple event loops. This |
26 |
root |
1.13 |
allows module authors to utilise an event loop without forcing module |
27 |
root |
1.2 |
users to use the same event loop (as only a single event loop can coexist |
28 |
|
|
peacefully at any one time). |
29 |
|
|
|
30 |
|
|
The interface itself is vaguely similar but not identical to the Event |
31 |
|
|
module. |
32 |
|
|
|
33 |
|
|
On the first call of any method, the module tries to detect the currently |
34 |
|
|
loaded event loop by probing wether any of the following modules is |
35 |
|
|
loaded: L<Coro::Event>, L<Event>, L<Glib>, L<Tk>. The first one found is |
36 |
|
|
used. If none is found, the module tries to load these modules in the |
37 |
|
|
order given. The first one that could be successfully loaded will be |
38 |
root |
1.14 |
used. If still none could be found, AnyEvent will fall back to a pure-perl |
39 |
|
|
event loop, which is also not very efficient. |
40 |
|
|
|
41 |
|
|
Because AnyEvent first checks for modules that are already loaded, loading |
42 |
|
|
an Event model explicitly before first using AnyEvent will likely make |
43 |
|
|
that model the default. For example: |
44 |
|
|
|
45 |
|
|
use Tk; |
46 |
|
|
use AnyEvent; |
47 |
|
|
|
48 |
|
|
# .. AnyEvent will likely default to Tk |
49 |
|
|
|
50 |
|
|
The pure-perl implementation of AnyEvent is called |
51 |
|
|
C<AnyEvent::Impl::Perl>. Like other event modules you can load it |
52 |
|
|
explicitly. |
53 |
|
|
|
54 |
|
|
=head1 WATCHERS |
55 |
|
|
|
56 |
|
|
AnyEvent has the central concept of a I<watcher>, which is an object that |
57 |
|
|
stores relevant data for each kind of event you are waiting for, such as |
58 |
|
|
the callback to call, the filehandle to watch, etc. |
59 |
|
|
|
60 |
|
|
These watchers are normal Perl objects with normal Perl lifetime. After |
61 |
|
|
creating a watcher it will immediately "watch" for events and invoke |
62 |
|
|
the callback. To disable the watcher you have to destroy it (e.g. by |
63 |
|
|
setting the variable that stores it to C<undef> or otherwise deleting all |
64 |
|
|
references to it). |
65 |
|
|
|
66 |
|
|
All watchers are created by calling a method on the C<AnyEvent> class. |
67 |
|
|
|
68 |
|
|
=head2 IO WATCHERS |
69 |
|
|
|
70 |
|
|
You can create I/O watcher by calling the C<< AnyEvent->io >> method with |
71 |
|
|
the following mandatory arguments: |
72 |
|
|
|
73 |
|
|
C<fh> the Perl I<filehandle> (not filedescriptor) to watch for |
74 |
|
|
events. C<poll> must be a string that is either C<r> or C<w>, that creates |
75 |
|
|
a watcher waiting for "r"eadable or "w"ritable events. C<cb> teh callback |
76 |
|
|
to invoke everytime the filehandle becomes ready. |
77 |
|
|
|
78 |
|
|
Only one io watcher per C<fh> and C<poll> combination is allowed (i.e. on |
79 |
|
|
a socket you can have one r + one w, not any more (limitation comes from |
80 |
|
|
Tk - if you are sure you are not using Tk this limitation is gone). |
81 |
|
|
|
82 |
|
|
Filehandles will be kept alive, so as long as the watcher exists, the |
83 |
|
|
filehandle exists, too. |
84 |
|
|
|
85 |
|
|
Example: |
86 |
|
|
|
87 |
|
|
# wait for readability of STDIN, then read a line and disable the watcher |
88 |
|
|
my $w; $w = AnyEvent->io (fh => \*STDIN, poll => 'r', cb => sub { |
89 |
|
|
chomp (my $input = <STDIN>); |
90 |
|
|
warn "read: $input\n"; |
91 |
|
|
undef $w; |
92 |
|
|
}); |
93 |
|
|
|
94 |
|
|
=head2 TIMER WATCHERS |
95 |
|
|
|
96 |
|
|
You can create a timer watcher by calling the C<< AnyEvent->timer >> |
97 |
|
|
method with the following mandatory arguments: |
98 |
|
|
|
99 |
|
|
C<after> after how many seconds (fractions are supported) should the timer |
100 |
|
|
activate. C<cb> the callback to invoke. |
101 |
|
|
|
102 |
|
|
The timer callback will be invoked at most once: if you want a repeating |
103 |
|
|
timer you have to create a new watcher (this is a limitation by both Tk |
104 |
|
|
and Glib). |
105 |
|
|
|
106 |
|
|
Example: |
107 |
|
|
|
108 |
|
|
# fire an event after 7.7 seconds |
109 |
|
|
my $w = AnyEvent->timer (after => 7.7, cb => sub { |
110 |
|
|
warn "timeout\n"; |
111 |
|
|
}); |
112 |
|
|
|
113 |
|
|
# to cancel the timer: |
114 |
|
|
undef $w |
115 |
|
|
|
116 |
|
|
=head2 CONDITION WATCHERS |
117 |
|
|
|
118 |
|
|
Condition watchers can be created by calling the C<< AnyEvent->condvar >> |
119 |
|
|
method without any arguments. |
120 |
|
|
|
121 |
|
|
A condition watcher watches for a condition - precisely that the C<< |
122 |
|
|
->broadcast >> method has been called. |
123 |
|
|
|
124 |
|
|
The watcher has only two methods: |
125 |
root |
1.2 |
|
126 |
root |
1.1 |
=over 4 |
127 |
|
|
|
128 |
root |
1.14 |
=item $cv->wait |
129 |
|
|
|
130 |
|
|
Wait (blocking if necessary) until the C<< ->broadcast >> method has been |
131 |
|
|
called on c<$cv>, while servicing other watchers normally. |
132 |
|
|
|
133 |
|
|
Not all event models support a blocking wait - some die in that case, so |
134 |
|
|
if you are using this from a module, never require a blocking wait, but |
135 |
|
|
let the caller decide wether the call will block or not (for example, |
136 |
|
|
by coupling condition variables with some kind of request results and |
137 |
|
|
supporting callbacks so the caller knows that getting the result will not |
138 |
|
|
block, while still suppporting blockign waits if the caller so desires). |
139 |
|
|
|
140 |
|
|
You can only wait once on a condition - additional calls will return |
141 |
|
|
immediately. |
142 |
|
|
|
143 |
|
|
=item $cv->broadcast |
144 |
|
|
|
145 |
|
|
Flag the condition as ready - a running C<< ->wait >> and all further |
146 |
|
|
calls to C<wait> will return after this method has been called. If nobody |
147 |
|
|
is waiting the broadcast will be remembered.. |
148 |
|
|
|
149 |
|
|
Example: |
150 |
|
|
|
151 |
|
|
# wait till the result is ready |
152 |
|
|
my $result_ready = AnyEvent->condvar; |
153 |
|
|
|
154 |
|
|
# do something such as adding a timer |
155 |
|
|
# or socket watcher the calls $result_ready->broadcast |
156 |
|
|
# when the "result" is ready. |
157 |
|
|
|
158 |
|
|
$result_ready->wait; |

Perl class implementing the model. This class is usually one of the |
171 |
|
|
C<AnyEvent::Impl:xxx> modules, but can be any other class in the case |
172 |
|
|
AnyEvent has been extended at runtime (e.g. in I<rxvt-unicode>). |
173 |

174 |
|
|
The known classes so far are: |
175 |
|
|
|
176 |
|
|
AnyEvent::Impl::Coro based on Coro::Event, best choise. |
177 |
|
|
AnyEvent::Impl::Event based on Event, also best choice :) |
178 |
|
|
AnyEvent::Impl::Glib based on Glib, second-best choice. |
179 |
|
|
AnyEvent::Impl::Tk based on Tk, very bad choice. |
180 |
|
|
AnyEvent::Impl::Perl pure-perl implementation, inefficient. |

=head1 WHAT TO DO IN A MODULE |
185 |
|
|
|
186 |
|
|
As a module author, you should "use AnyEvent" and call AnyEvent methods |
187 |
|
|
freely, but you should not load a specific event module or rely on it. |
188 |
|
|
|
189 |
|
|
Be careful when you create watchers in the module body - Anyevent will |
190 |
|
|
decide which event module to use as soon as the first method is called, so |
191 |
|
|
by calling AnyEvent in your module body you force the user of your module |
192 |
|
|
to load the event module first. |
193 |
|
|
|
194 |
|
|
=head1 WHAT TO DO IN THE MAIN PROGRAM |
195 |
|
|
|
196 |
|
|
There will always be a single main program - the only place that should |
197 |
|
|
dictate which event model to use. |
198 |
|
|
|
199 |
|
|
If it doesn't care, it can just "use AnyEvent" and use it itself, or not |
200 |
|
|
do anything special and let AnyEvent decide which implementation to chose. |
201 |
|
|
|
202 |
|
|
If the main program relies on a specific event model (for example, in Gtk2 |
203 |
|
|
programs you have to rely on either Glib or Glib::Event), you should load |
204 |
|
|
it before loading AnyEvent or any module that uses it, generally, as early |
205 |
|
|
as possible. The reason is that modules might create watchers when they |
206 |
|
|
are loaded, and AnyEvent will decide on the event model to use as soon as |
207 |
|
|
it creates watchers, and it might chose the wrong one unless you load the |
208 |
|
|
correct one yourself. |
209 |
|
|
|
210 |
|
|
You can chose to use a rather inefficient pure-perl implementation by |
211 |
|
|
loading the C<AnyEvent::Impl::Perl> module, but letting AnyEvent chose is |
212 |
|
|
generally better. |

=head1 SUPPLYING YOUR OWN EVENT MODEL INTERFACE |
285 |
|
|
|
286 |
|
|
If you need to support another event library which isn't directly |
287 |
|
|
supported by AnyEvent, you can supply your own interface to it by |
288 |
root |
1.11 |
pushing, before the first watcher gets created, the package name of |
289 |
root |
1.8 |
the event module and the package name of the interface to use onto |
290 |
|
|
C<@AnyEvent::REGISTRY>. You can do that before and even without loading |
291 |
|
|
AnyEvent. |
292 |
|
|
|
293 |
|
|
Example: |
294 |
|
|
|
295 |
|
|
push @AnyEvent::REGISTRY, [urxvt => urxvt::anyevent::]; |
296 |
|
|
|
297 |
root |
1.12 |
This tells AnyEvent to (literally) use the C<urxvt::anyevent::> |
298 |
|
|
package/class when it finds the C<urxvt> package/module is loaded. When |
299 |
|
|
AnyEvent is loaded and asked to find a suitable event model, it will |
300 |
|
|
first check for the presence of urxvt. |
301 |
|
|
|
302 |
|
|
The class should prove implementations for all watcher types (see |
303 |
|
|
L<AnyEvent::Impl::Event> (source code), L<AnyEvent::Impl::Glib> |
304 |
|
|
(Source code) and so on for actual examples, use C<perldoc -m |
305 |
|
|
AnyEvent::Impl::Glib> to see the sources). |
306 |
root |
1.8 |
|
307 |
root |
1.12 |
The above isn't fictitious, the I<rxvt-unicode> (a.k.a. urxvt) |
308 |
|
|
uses the above line as-is. An interface isn't included in AnyEvent |
309 |
root |
1.8 |
because it doesn't make sense outside the embedded interpreter inside |
310 |
|
|
I<rxvt-unicode>, and it is updated and maintained as part of the |
311 |
|
|
I<rxvt-unicode> distribution. |
312 |
|
|
|
313 |
root |
1.12 |
I<rxvt-unicode> also cheats a bit by not providing blocking access to |
314 |
|
|
condition variables: code blocking while waiting for a condition will |
315 |
|
|
C<die>. This still works with most modules/usages, and blocking calls must |
316 |
|
|
not be in an interactive appliation, so it makes sense. |

=head1 REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE |
356 |
|
|
|
357 |
|
|
Consider the L<Net::FCP> module. It features (among others) the following |
358 |
|
|
API calls, which are to freenet what HTTP GET requests are to http: |
359 |
|
|
|
360 |
|
|
my $data = $fcp->client_get ($url); # blocks |
361 |
|
|
|
362 |
|
|
my $transaction = $fcp->txn_client_get ($url); # does not block |
363 |
|
|
$transaction->cb ( sub { ... } ); # set optional result callback |
364 |
|
|
my $data = $transaction->result; # possibly blocks |
365 |
|
|
|
366 |
|
|
The C<client_get> method works like C<LWP::Simple::get>: it requests the |
367 |
|
|
given URL and waits till the data has arrived. It is defined to be: |
368 |
|
|
|
369 |
|
|
sub client_get { $_[0]->txn_client_get ($_[1])->result } |
370 |
|
|
|
371 |
|
|
And in fact is automatically generated. This is the blocking API of |
372 |
|
|
L<Net::FCP>, and it works as simple as in any other, similar, module. |
373 |
|
|
|
374 |
|
|
More complicated is C<txn_client_get>: It only creates a transaction |
375 |
|
|
(completion, result, ...) object and initiates the transaction. |
376 |
|
|
|
377 |
|
|
my $txn = bless { }, Net::FCP::Txn::; |
378 |
|
|
|
379 |
|
|
It also creates a condition variable that is used to signal the completion |
380 |
|
|
of the request: |
381 |
|
|
|
382 |
|
|
$txn->{finished} = AnyAvent->condvar; |
383 |
|
|
|
384 |
|
|
It then creates a socket in non-blocking mode. |
385 |
|
|
|
386 |
|
|
socket $txn->{fh}, ...; |
387 |
|
|
fcntl $txn->{fh}, F_SETFL, O_NONBLOCK; |
388 |
|
|
connect $txn->{fh}, ... |
389 |
|
|
and !$!{EWOULDBLOCK} |
390 |
|
|
and !$!{EINPROGRESS} |
391 |
|
|
and Carp::croak "unable to connect: $!\n"; |
392 |
|
|
|
393 |
root |
1.6 |
Then it creates a write-watcher which gets called whenever an error occurs |
394 |
root |
1.5 |
or the connection succeeds: |
395 |
|
|
|
396 |
|
|
$txn->{w} = AnyEvent->io (fh => $txn->{fh}, poll => 'w', cb => sub { $txn->fh_ready_w }); |
397 |
|
|
|
398 |
|
|
And returns this transaction object. The C<fh_ready_w> callback gets |
399 |
|
|
called as soon as the event loop detects that the socket is ready for |
400 |
|
|
writing. |
401 |
|
|
|
402 |
|
|
The C<fh_ready_w> method makes the socket blocking again, writes the |
403 |
|
|
request data and replaces the watcher by a read watcher (waiting for reply |
404 |
|
|
data). The actual code is more complicated, but that doesn't matter for |
405 |
|
|
this example: |
406 |
|
|
|
407 |
|
|
fcntl $txn->{fh}, F_SETFL, 0; |
408 |
|
|
syswrite $txn->{fh}, $txn->{request} |
409 |
|
|
or die "connection or write error"; |
410 |
|
|
$txn->{w} = AnyEvent->io (fh => $txn->{fh}, poll => 'r', cb => sub { $txn->fh_ready_r }); |
411 |
|
|
|
412 |
|
|
Again, C<fh_ready_r> waits till all data has arrived, and then stores the |
413 |
|
|
result and signals any possible waiters that the request ahs finished: |
414 |
|
|
|
415 |
|
|
sysread $txn->{fh}, $txn->{buf}, length $txn->{$buf}; |
416 |
|
|
|
417 |
|
|
if (end-of-file or data complete) { |
418 |
|
|
$txn->{result} = $txn->{buf}; |
419 |
|
|
$txn->{finished}->broadcast; |
420 |
root |
1.6 |
$txb->{cb}->($txn) of $txn->{cb}; # also call callback |
421 |
root |
1.5 |
} |
422 |
|
|
|
423 |
|
|
The C<result> method, finally, just waits for the finished signal (if the |
424 |
|
|
request was already finished, it doesn't wait, of course, and returns the |
425 |
|
|
data: |
426 |
|
|
|
427 |
|
|
$txn->{finished}->wait; |
428 |
root |
1.6 |
return $txn->{result}; |
429 |
root |
1.5 |
|
430 |
|
|
The actual code goes further and collects all errors (C<die>s, exceptions) |
431 |
|
|
that occured during request processing. The C<result> method detects |
432 |
|
|
wether an exception as thrown (it is stored inside the $txn object) |
433 |
|
|
and just throws the exception, which means connection errors and other |
434 |
|
|
problems get reported tot he code that tries to use the result, not in a |
435 |
|
|
random callback. |
436 |
|
|
|
437 |
|
|
All of this enables the following usage styles: |
438 |
|
|
|
439 |
|
|
1. Blocking: |
440 |
|
|
|
441 |
|
|
my $data = $fcp->client_get ($url); |
442 |
|
|
|
443 |
|
|
2. Blocking, but parallelizing: |
444 |
|
|
|
445 |
|
|
my @datas = map $_->result, |
446 |
|
|
map $fcp->txn_client_get ($_), |
447 |
|
|
@urls; |
448 |
|
|
|
449 |
|
|
Both blocking examples work without the module user having to know |
450 |
|
|
anything about events. |
451 |
|
|
|
452 |
|
|
3a. Event-based in a main program, using any support Event module: |
453 |
|
|
|
454 |
|
|
use Event; |
455 |
|
|
|
456 |
|
|
$fcp->txn_client_get ($url)->cb (sub { |
457 |
|
|
my $txn = shift; |
458 |
|
|
my $data = $txn->result; |
459 |
|
|
... |
460 |
|
|
}); |
461 |
|
|
|
462 |
|
|
Event::loop; |
463 |
|
|
|
464 |
|
|
3b. The module user could use AnyEvent, too: |
465 |
|
|
|
466 |
|
|
use AnyEvent; |
467 |
|
|
|
468 |
|
|
my $quit = AnyEvent->condvar; |
469 |
|
|
|
470 |
|
|
$fcp->txn_client_get ($url)->cb (sub { |
471 |
|
|
... |
472 |
|
|
$quit->broadcast; |
473 |
|
|
}); |
474 |
|
|
|
475 |
|
|
$quit->wait; |
