NAME

Math::NumSeq::OEIS::Catalogue::Plugin -- pluggable catalogue extensions

SYNOPSIS

            

              
              
package Math::NumSeq::OEIS::Catalogue::Plugin::MySeqs;
use Math::NumSeq::OEIS::Catalogue::Plugin;
@ISA = 'Math::NumSeq::OEIS::Catalogue::Plugin';
# ...
            
          

DESCRIPTION

Catalogue plugins are loaded and used by Math::NumSeq::OEIS::Catalogue. A plug allows an add-on distribution or semi-independent components to declare which OEIS A-numbers they implement and what NumSeq sequence parameters can create the sequence.

This is an internal part of Math::NumSeq::OEIS::Catalogue not yet meant for general use yet, but the intention is for add-on sequences to declare themselves in the A-number catalogue.

A plugin "Foo" should sub-class Math::NumSeq::OEIS::Catalogue::Plugin, so

            

              
              
package Math::NumSeq::OEIS::Catalogue::Plugin::Foo;
use strict;
use vars '@ISA';
use Math::NumSeq::OEIS::Catalogue::Plugin;
@ISA = ('Math::NumSeq::OEIS::Catalogue::Plugin');
            
          

A set of A-numbers can be declared with an arrayref of information records (a hashref each). For example

            

              
              
use constant info_arrayref =>
  [
   { anum  => 'A999998',
     class => 'Math::NumSeq::Foo',
   },
   { anum  => 'A999999',
     class => 'Math::NumSeq::Foo',
     parameters => [ param_a => 123, param_b => 456 ],
   },
   # ...
  ];
            
          

This means A999998 is implemented by class Math::NumSeq::Foo as

            

              
              
$seq = Math::NumSeq::Foo->new ();
            
          

and A999999 likewise but with additional parameters

            

              
              
$seq = Math::NumSeq::Foo->new (param_a => 123,
                               param_b => 456);
