DESCRIPTION

       Mojo::EventEmitter is a simple base class for event emitting objects.

EVENTS

       Mojo::EventEmitter can emit the following events.

   error
         $e->on(error => sub {
           my ($e, $err) = @_;
           ...
         });

       Emitted for event errors, fatal if unhandled.

         $e->on(error => sub {
           my ($e, $err) = @_;
           say "This looks bad: $err";
         });

METHODS

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

   emit
         $e = $e->emit('foo');
         $e = $e->emit('foo', 123);

       Emit event.

   emit_safe
         $e = $e->emit_safe('foo');
         $e = $e->emit_safe('foo', 123);

       Emit event safely and emit "error" event on failure.

   has_subscribers
         my $bool = $e->has_subscribers('foo');

       Check if event has subscribers.

   on
         my $cb = $e->on(foo => sub {...});

       Subscribe to event.

         $e->on(foo => sub {
           my ($e, @args) = @_;
           ...
         });

   once
         my $cb = $e->once(foo => sub {...});

       Subscribe to event and unsubscribe again after it has been emitted once.

         $e->once(foo => sub {
           my ($e, @args) = @_;
           ...
         });

   subscribers
         my $subscribers = $e->subscribers('foo');

       All subscribers for event.

         # Unsubscribe last subscriber
         $e->unsubscribe(foo => $e->subscribers('foo')->[-1]);

   unsubscribe
         $e = $e->unsubscribe('foo');
         $e = $e->unsubscribe(foo => $cb);

       Unsubscribe from event.
