NAME

       Mojo::Pg::PubSub - Publish/Subscribe

SYNOPSIS

         use Mojo::Pg::PubSub;

         my $pubsub = Mojo::Pg::PubSub->new(pg => $pg);
         my $cb = $pubsub->listen(foo => sub {
           my ($pubsub, $payload) = @_;
           say "Received: $payload";
         });
         $pubsub->notify(foo => 'I ♥ Mojolicious!');
         $pubsub->unlisten(foo => $cb);

DESCRIPTION

       Mojo::Pg::PubSub is a scalable implementation of the publish/subscribe pattern used by Mojo::Pg. It is
       based on PostgreSQL notifications and allows many consumers to share the same database connection, to
       avoid many common scalability problems.

EVENTS

       Mojo::Pg::PubSub inherits all events from Mojo::EventEmitter and can emit the following new ones.

   reconnect
         $pubsub->on(reconnect => sub {
           my ($pubsub, $db) = @_;
           ...
         });

       Emitted after switching to a new database connection for sending and receiving notifications.

ATTRIBUTES

       Mojo::Pg::PubSub implements the following attributes.

   pg
         my $pg  = $pubsub->pg;
         $pubsub = $pubsub->pg(Mojo::Pg->new);

       Mojo::Pg object this publish/subscribe container belongs to.

METHODS

       Mojo::Pg::PubSub inherits all methods from Mojo::EventEmitter and implements the following new ones.

   json
         $pubsub = $pubsub->json('foo');

       Activate automatic JSON encoding and decoding with "to_json" in Mojo::JSON and "from_json" in Mojo::JSON
       for a channel.

         # Send and receive data structures
         $pubsub->json('foo')->listen(foo => sub {
           my ($pubsub, $payload) = @_;
           say $payload->{bar};
         });
         $pubsub->notify(foo => {bar => 'I ♥ Mojolicious!'});

   listen
         my $cb = $pubsub->listen(foo => sub {...});

       Subscribe to a channel, there is no limit on how many subscribers a channel can have. Automatic decoding
       of JSON text to Perl values can be activated with "json".

         # Subscribe to the same channel twice
         $pubsub->listen(foo => sub {
           my ($pubsub, $payload) = @_;
           say "One: $payload";
         });
         $pubsub->listen(foo => sub {
           my ($pubsub, $payload) = @_;
           say "Two: $payload";
         });

   notify
         $pubsub = $pubsub->notify('foo');
         $pubsub = $pubsub->notify(foo => 'I ♥ Mojolicious!');
         $pubsub = $pubsub->notify(foo => {bar => 'baz'});

       Notify a channel. Automatic encoding of Perl values to JSON text can be activated with "json".

   reset
         $pubsub->reset;

       Reset all subscriptions and the database connection. This is usually done after a new process has been
       forked, to prevent the child process from stealing notifications meant for the parent process.

   unlisten
         $pubsub = $pubsub->unlisten('foo');
         $pubsub = $pubsub->unlisten(foo => $cb);

       Unsubscribe from a channel.
