=head2 METHODS

Most of these methods are for internal use within the TCLI system and may
be of interest only to developers trying to enhance this module.

=over

=item Append <input>, <wheel_id>

This POE Event handler receives the tail events and creates the
line objects to insert into the line_cache.  It typically
accepts events from POE::Wheel::FollowTail. It may also be
called directly from another POE Session, in which case only
the input to be logged should be provided. It will insert the
sending POE Session as the line->source if no wheel_id is provided.

=cut

sub Append {
    my ($kernel,   $self, $sender, $input, $wheel_id) =
      @_[KERNEL,  OBJECT,  SENDER,  ARG0,      ARG1];

	# This and Log are virtually identical. Maybe merge someday?

	return unless defined $input;

	# assign source to either a wheel or another POE session
	my $source = defined($wheel_id)
		? $self->GetWheelKey($wheel_id, 'source')
		: $sender ;

	$self->Verbose("append: input(".$input.") from ".$source, 2 );

	$line_count[$$self]++;

	my $type = ref($input);
	$type = "line" if ($type  eq '');

	# push line onto cache
	$self->push_line_cache( Agent::TCLI::Package::Tail::Line->new(

		'ttl'			=>  time()+ $self->line_hold_time,
		'source'		=>	$source,
		'type'			=>	$type,
	 ));

	# remove first-in line if total line count exceeded.
	if ( $self->depth_line_cache > $self->line_max_cache )
	{
		$self->Verbose('Too many lines, removing...');
		shift ( @{$self->line_cache} );

	# post new event to active states
	foreach my $state ( sort keys %{$self->active} )
	{
		$kernel->yield( $state => 'Append', $self->line_count );
	}
}

=item Activate

This POE event handler activates tests in the queue by registering an
event with SimpleLog and creating an event handler.
This whole process is currently ineffecient and will hopefully get
redone sometime.

=cut

sub Activate {
   my ($kernel,   $self,  ) =
      @_[KERNEL,  OBJECT,  ];

lib/Agent/TCLI/Package/Tail.pm  view on Meta::CPAN

	delete( $self->active->{$test->num} );

	$self->Verbose("Complete test '".$test->name."' (".$test->num.") code($code)",1);

=item FileReset

This POE event handler should do something when a tailed file is reset, but
it doesn't. Ideas are welcome.

=cut

sub FileReset {
	#TODO File Reset handler.
}

=item Log

This POE event handler is used to introduce line objects from sources other than
the POE::Wheel::FollowTail.

=cut

sub Log {
    my ($kernel,  $self, $sender, $state, ) =
      @_[KERNEL, OBJECT,  SENDER,  STATE, ];
	$self->Verbose("Log:  state(".$state.")  ");

	# This and Append are similar. Maybe merge parts someday?

=item PruneLineCache

This POE event handler periodically runs to check for lines that have been in
the cache too long and removes them.

=cut

sub PruneLineCache {
    my ($kernel,   $self, ) =
      @_[KERNEL,  OBJECT, ];
	my $lines = $self->depth_line_cache;
	$self->Verbose('PruneLineCache: lines('.$lines.') ');

	$self->Verbose('PruneLineCache: cache dump ('.$lines.') ',3,$self->line_cache);

	if ( $self->depth_line_cache > 0 )
	{
		# Set time here so that all pruning uses same time
		my $time = time();

		my $line_index = 0;
		foreach my $line ( @{$self->line_cache} )
		{
			# The line ttl is set at line creation. This allows the ttl
			# to be modified along the way.
			if ( $line->ttl < $time )
			{
				splice( @{$self->line_cache}, $line_index, 1 );
				$self->Verbose('PruneLineCache: removed line('.$line->count.') ',2);
			}
			$line_index++;
		}
	}
	# schedule the next check
	$kernel->delay('PruneLineCache',10)
		unless ( $self->tests_complete >= $self->depth_test_queue );

}

=item SetFollowTailWheel

This POE event handler sets up the POE::Wheel::FollowTail to send
events to our Append handler for each new File. I suppose at some point
I ought to write the corresponding DeleteFollowTailWheel.

=cut

    my ($kernel,   $self, $params ) =

  help: add text to the line queue
  manual: >
    The log command allows one to add a line of text to the queue. It helped
    to facilitate testing of the tail package, but might not be useful
    otherwise. Still, here it is. Any text following log appears in the line
    queue as if it was coming from a tailed file.

=item _shutdown

This POE event handler is used to initiate a shutdown of the Package.

=cut

sub _shutdown :Cumulative {
	my ($kernel,  $self,) =
      @_[KERNEL, OBJECT,];
	$self->Verbose("_shutdown:tail ".$self->name." shutting down");

    return;

This POE event handler is called when POE starts up a Package.
The B<_start> method is :Cumulative within OIO.

      @_[KERNEL, OBJECT,   SESSION];
