NAME

Tree::Dump - Dump a tree object

VERSION

This document describes version 0.061 of Tree::Dump (from Perl distribution Tree-Dump), released on 2021-06-27.

SYNOPSIS

use Tree::Dump; # exports td() and tdmp()
td($tree);

Sample output:

(Tree::Example::HashNode) {_parent=>undef,id=>1,level=>0}
|-- (Tree::Example::HashNode::Sub1) {id=>2,level=>1}
|   \-- (Tree::Example::HashNode::Sub2) {id=>5,level=>2}
|       |-- (Tree::Example::HashNode::Sub1) {id=>7,level=>3}
|       |   \-- (Tree::Example::HashNode::Sub2) {id=>15,level=>4}
|       |-- (Tree::Example::HashNode::Sub1) {id=>8,level=>3}
|       |-- (Tree::Example::HashNode::Sub1) {id=>9,level=>3}
|       \-- (Tree::Example::HashNode::Sub1) {id=>10,level=>3}
|-- (Tree::Example::HashNode::Sub1) {id=>3,level=>1}
|   \-- (Tree::Example::HashNode::Sub2) {id=>6,level=>2}
|       |-- (Tree::Example::HashNode::Sub1) {id=>11,level=>3}
|       |   \-- (Tree::Example::HashNode::Sub2) {id=>16,level=>4}
|       |-- (Tree::Example::HashNode::Sub1) {id=>12,level=>3}
|       |-- (Tree::Example::HashNode::Sub1) {id=>13,level=>3}
|       \-- (Tree::Example::HashNode::Sub1) {id=>14,level=>3}
\-- (Tree::Example::HashNode::Sub1) {id=>4,level=>1}

Sample output when rendering an array-backed tree:

(Tree::Example::ArrayNode) [undef,undef,undef,"<obj>","<obj>","<obj>"]
|-- (Tree::Example::ArrayNode::Sub1) [undef,undef,"<obj>","<obj>"]
|   \-- (Tree::Example::ArrayNode::Sub2) [undef,undef,"<obj>","<obj>","<obj>","<obj>","<obj>"]
|       |-- (Tree::Example::ArrayNode::Sub1) [undef,undef,"<obj>","<obj>"]
|       |   \-- (Tree::Example::ArrayNode::Sub2) [undef,undef,"<obj>"]
|       |-- (Tree::Example::ArrayNode::Sub1) [undef,undef,"<obj>"]
|       |-- (Tree::Example::ArrayNode::Sub1) [undef,undef,"<obj>"]
|       \-- (Tree::Example::ArrayNode::Sub1) [undef,undef,"<obj>"]
|-- (Tree::Example::ArrayNode::Sub1) [undef,undef,"<obj>","<obj>"]
|   \-- (Tree::Example::ArrayNode::Sub2) [undef,undef,"<obj>","<obj>","<obj>","<obj>","<obj>"]
|       |-- (Tree::Example::ArrayNode::Sub1) [undef,undef,"<obj>","<obj>"]
|       |   \-- (Tree::Example::ArrayNode::Sub2) [undef,undef,"<obj>"]
|       |-- (Tree::Example::ArrayNode::Sub1) [undef,undef,"<obj>"]
|       |-- (Tree::Example::ArrayNode::Sub1) [undef,undef,"<obj>"]
|       \-- (Tree::Example::ArrayNode::Sub1) [undef,undef,"<obj>"]
\-- (Tree::Example::ArrayNode::Sub1) [undef,undef,"<obj>"]

DESCRIPTION

This module is useful for debugging. The interface is modeled after Data::Dmp (which in turn is modeled after Data::Dump). Instead of dd, this module exports td which you can use to dump a tree object to STDOUT. There is also tdmp (like Data::Dmp's dmp) which return dumped data in a string.

Any tree object can be printed as long as it supports parent and children methods. See Role::TinyCommons::Tree::Node for more information about the requirements.

FUNCTIONS

td([ \%opts, ] $tree) => str

Dump tree to STDOUT and return it. See tdmp for list of known options.

tdmp([ \%opts, ] $tree) => str

Return dumped tree. If first argument is a plain hashref, it will be regarded as options. Known options:

  • get_children_method => str (default: children)

    Example:

    get_children_method => "get_children"

    By default, children is the method that will be used on node objects to retrieve children nodes. But you can customize that using this option. Note that the method must return either a list or arrayref of nodes.

  • indent => int (default: 2)

    Number of spaces for each indent level.
