Description

Perl Programmers Reference Guide                      Test2::Event::Generic(3)



NAME
       Test2::Event::Generic - Generic event type.

DESCRIPTION
       This is a generic event that lets you customize all fields in the event
       API.  This is useful if you have need for a custom event that does not
       make sense as a published reusable event subclass.

SYNOPSIS
           use Test2::API qw/context/;

           sub send_custom_fail {
               my $ctx = shift;

               $ctx->send_event('Generic', causes_fail => 1, summary => 'The sky is falling');

               $ctx->release;
           }

           send_custom_fail();

METHODS
       $e->facet_data($data)
       $data = $e->facet_data
           Get or set the facet data (see Test2::Event). If no facet_data is
           set then "Test2::Event->facet_data" will be called to produce
           facets from the other data.

       $e->callback($hub)
           Call the custom callback if one is set, otherwise this does
           nothing.

       $e->set_callback(sub { ... })
           Set the custom callback. The custom callback must be a coderef. The
           first argument to your callback will be the event itself, the
           second will be the Test2::Event::Hub that is using the callback.

       $bool = $e->causes_fail
       $e->set_causes_fail($bool)
           Get/Set the "causes_fail" attribute. This defaults to 0.

       $bool = $e->diagnostics
       $e->set_diagnostics($bool)
           Get/Set the "diagnostics" attribute. This defaults to 0.

       $bool_or_undef = $e->global
       @bool_or_empty = $e->global
       $e->set_global($bool_or_undef)
           Get/Set the "diagnostics" attribute. This defaults to an empty list
           which is undef in scalar context.

       $bool = $e->increments_count
       $e->set_increments_count($bool)
           Get/Set the "increments_count" attribute. This defaults to 0.

       $bool = $e->no_display
       $e->set_no_display($bool)
           Get/Set the "no_display" attribute. This defaults to 0.

       @plan = $e->sets_plan
           Get the plan if this event sets one. The plan is a list of up to 3
           items: "($count, $directive, $reason)". $count must be defined, the
           others may be undef, or may not exist at all.

       $e->set_sets_plan(\@plan)
           Set the plan. You must pass in an arrayref with up to 3 elements.

       $summary = $e->summary
       $e->set_summary($summary_or_undef)
           Get/Set the summary. This will default to the event package
           'Test2::Event::Generic'. You can set it to any value. Setting this
           to "undef" will reset it to the default.

       $int_or_undef = $e->terminate
       @int_or_empty = $e->terminate
       $e->set_terminate($int_or_undef)
           This will get/set the "terminate" attribute. This defaults to undef
           in scalar context, or an empty list in list context. Setting this
           to undef will clear it completely. This must be set to a positive
           integer (0 or larger).
