Shouter

Shouter is a very simple and lightweight publish/subscription DSL for Ruby applications.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'shouter'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install shouter

Usage

class A
  extend Shouter
  subscribe(Listener.new, for: :my_scope)
end

class Listener
  def on_change
    "I`m changed"
  end
end

A.publish(:my_scope, :on_change)
=> "I`m changed"

You can subscribe multiple objects:

class A
  extend Shouter
  subscribe(Listener.new, Listener1.new, Listener2.new, for: :my_scope)
end

You can subscribe an object for single execution, after that the object will be removed from the listener store

class A
  extend Shouter
  subscribe(Listener.new, for: :my_scope, single: true)
end

A.publish(:my_scope, :on_change)
=> "I`m changed"

A.publish(:my_scope, :on_change)
=> nil

You can also pass a block to the publish method, which will serve as a successful callback, meaning it will only get executed after the event has been triggered

A.publish(:my_scope, :on_change) do
  puts "I am callback"
end

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
