@callback all() :: [{object(), struct()}]

Returns all aspects of the given type. Returns a list of tuples containing the object and the aspect struct.

Examples

iex> Health.all()
[{1, %Health{current: 100}}, {2, %Health{current: 50}}]

@callback at_least(atom(), integer()) :: [{object(), struct()}]

Returns all aspects that have the given property with a value greater than or equal to the given minimum.

Examples

iex> Health.at_least(:current, 50)
[{1, %Health{current: 75}}]

@callback at_most(atom(), integer()) :: [{object(), struct()}]

Returns all aspects that have the given property with a value less than or equal to the given maximum.

Examples

iex> Health.at_most(:current, 50)
[{1, %Health{current: 25}}]

@callback attach(object(), props()) :: :ok

Attaches an aspect to an object.

@callback between(atom(), integer(), integer()) :: [{object(), struct()}]

Returns all aspects that have the given property with a value between the given minimum and maximum.

Examples

iex> Health.between(:current, 50, 100)
[{1, %Health{current: 75}}]

@callback cast(props()) :: map()

Casts the given properties into a map of permitted values. This function normalizes input that can be used to create an aspect.

@callback exists?(object()) :: boolean()

Returns true if the aspect is attached to the given object.

@callback get(object()) :: struct() | nil

Retrieves the aspect attached to an object. Returns the aspect struct if present or nil.

Examples

iex> Health.get(1)
%Health{current: 100}

@callback get(object(), any()) :: struct() | any()

Same as get/1, but returns a default value if the aspect is not present.

@callback handle_event(atom(), object(), map()) :: {:cont, map()} | {:halt, map()}

Handles events dispatched to this aspect via its parent object. Receives the event name, the object and a map of arguments for the event.

Given that the same event is dispatched to all aspects within an object, this function should return a tuple with :cont or :halt to either keep processing the event or stop propagating the event to the remaining aspects in the pipeline.

@callback init() :: {atom() | [atom()]}

Initializes the aspect ETS table. Should return an atom with the name of the table and a list of events.

@callback match(props()) :: [{object(), struct()}]

Returns all aspects that match the given properties.

Examples

iex> Moniker.match(name: "Tripida")
[{1, %Moniker{name: "Tripida"}}]

@callback new(props()) :: struct()

Creates a new aspect by casting the given properties. The given properties are passed to the cast/1 function.

@callback remove(object()) :: :ok | :noop

Removes an aspect from an object. Returns :noop if the aspect is not present.

@callback update(object(), props()) :: :ok | :noop

Updates an aspect attached to an object. Will return :noop if the aspect is not present.
