version 1.08

SYNOPSIS

            

              
              
my $dispatcher = Path::Dispatcher->new(
    rules => [
        Path::Dispatcher::Rule::Tokens->new(
            tokens => [ 'attack', qr/^\w+$/ ],
            block  => sub { attack(shift->pos(2)) },
        ),
    ],
);
my $dispatch = $dispatcher->dispatch("attack goblin");
$dispatch->matches;     # list of matches (in this case, one)
$dispatch->has_matches; # whether there were any matches
$dispatch->run; # attacks the goblin
            
          

DESCRIPTION

Dispatching creates a dispatch which is little more than a (possibly empty!) list of matches.

ATTRIBUTES

matches

The list of Path::Dispatcher::Match that correspond to the rules that were matched.

METHODS

run

Executes the first match.

Each match's "run" in Path::Dispatcher::Match method is evaluated in scalar context. The return value of this method is a list of these scalars (or the first if called in scalar context).

SUPPORT

Bugs may be submitted through the RT bug tracker (or bug-Path-Dispatcher@rt.cpan.org).
