VERSION

This document describes version 0.002 of Sort::Sub::by_example (from Perl distribution Sort-Sub-by_example), released on 2021-08-06.

SYNOPSIS

Generate sorter (accessed as variable) via Sort::Sub import:

use Sort::Sub '$by_example'; # use '$by_example<i>' for case-insensitive sorting, '$by_example<r>' for reverse sorting
my @sorted = sort $by_example ('item', ...);

Generate sorter (accessed as subroutine):

use Sort::Sub 'by_example<ir>';
my @sorted = sort {by_example} ('item', ...);

Generate directly without Sort::Sub:

use Sort::Sub::by_example;
my $sorter = Sort::Sub::by_example::gen_sorter(
    ci => 1,      # default 0, set 1 to sort case-insensitively
    reverse => 1, # default 0, set 1 to sort in reverse order
);
my @sorted = sort $sorter ('item', ...);

Use in shell/CLI with sortsub (from App::sortsub):

% some-cmd | sortsub by_example
% some-cmd | sortsub by_example --ignore-case -r
