How to install
Just clone this repository with:
$ git clone https://github.com/timofurrer/pyobservable.git
and install it with:
# python setup.py install
Note: you may need root privileges to execute setup.py
with make
When you have cloned the repository you can install it with
sudo make install
If you want to install just if all nose tests are passing
sudo make
nose tests
There are some nose tests in the test/ directory. If you haven’t installed nose yet - do it with
sudo pip install nose
After you’ve nose installed - test pyobservable with:
make tests
The output should be something like:
nosetests -v test event registering with the on decorator ... ok test event registering with the on method ... ok test event registering with the once decorator ... ok test event registering with the once method ... ok test event triggering with event registered with on ... ok test event triggering with event registered with once ... ok test exception raising for not existing events ... ok test obs.off method ... ok test exception raising in the off method ... ok test event triggering with arguments ... ok test event triggering with argument list ... ok test event triggering with keyword-arguments ... ok ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ran 12 tests in 0.003s OK
… where just the last OK is important!
How to use
Import it with the following statement in your own program
```python from observable import Observable
obs = Observable() ```
on: Register event handler with on
There are two ways to register a function to an event. The first way is to register the event with a decorator like this:
python @obs.on("error") def error_func(message): print("Error: %s" % message)
The second way is to register it with a method call:
python def error_func(message): print("Error: %s" % message) obs.on("error", error_func)
once: Register event handler with once
once works like on, but once the event handler is triggered it will be removed and cannot be triggered again.
trigger: trigger event
You can trigger a registered event with the trigger method:
python obs.trigger("error", "This is my error message")
If no handler for the event error could be found an Observable.NoHandlerFound-Exception will be raised.
off: remove handler and events
Remove a handler from a specified event:
python obs.off("error", error_func)
python obs.off("error", [error_func, second_error_func])
Remove all handlers from a specified event:
python obs.off("error")
Clear all events:
python obs.off()
