Message::Passing::Role::Filter - Simple abstraction for filtering messages

    package My::Filter;
    use Moo;
    use namespace::clean -except => 'meta';
    with 'Message::Passing::Role::Filter';
    sub filter {
        my ($self, $message) = @_;
        # Do something with $message
        return $message; # Or return undef to halt message!
    }
    1;

Both a producer and a consumer of messages, able to filter out messages based upon their contents, or permute the structure of messages.

Called to filter the message. Returns the mangled message.

Note if you return undef then the message is not propagated further up the chain, which may be used for filtering out unwanted messages.

From Message::Passing::Role::Input.

Consumers a message, calling the filter method provided by the user with the message.

In the case where the filter returns a message, outputs the message to the next step in the chain.
