# Markdent::Role::Event(3pm)

Implements behavior shared by all events

## NAME

Markdent::Role::Event - Implements behavior shared by all events

## VERSION

version 0.40

## DESCRIPTION

This role provides shared behavior for all event classes. It is actually somewhat of a hack, as it is a parameterized role that generates methods for each class that consumes it.

## METHODS

This role provides the following methods:

### $event-\>is\_start

### $event-\>is\_end

### $event-\>is\_inline

These all returns booleans indicating whether the event is of the specified type.

### $event-\>event\_name

This returns a name like "start\_blockquote", "end\_strong", or "text".

### $event-\>kv\_pairs\_for\_attributes

This returns a hash representing the data stored in the object's attributes. If an attribute is not required and has not been set, it will not be present in the hash.

### $event-\>debug\_dump

Returns a string representation of the event suitable for debugging output.
