NAME

Venus::Space - Space Class

ABSTRACT

Space Class for Perl 5

SYNOPSIS

package main;

use Venus::Space;

my $space = Venus::Space->new('foo/bar');

# $space->package; # Foo::Bar

DESCRIPTION

This package provides methods for parsing and manipulating package namespaces.

INHERITS

This package inherits behaviors from:

Venus::Name

METHODS

This package provides the following methods:

all

all(Str $method, Any @args) (ArrayRef[Tuple[Str, Any]])

The all method executes any available method on the instance and all instances representing packages inherited by the package represented by the invocant. This method supports dispatching, i.e. providing a method name and arguments whose return value will be acted on by this method.

Since 0.01

all example 1

package main;

use Venus::Space;

my $space = Venus::Space->new('Venus');

my $all = $space->all('id');

# [["Venus", "Venus"]]

all example 2

package main;

use Venus::Space;

my $space = Venus::Space->new('Venus/Space');

my $all = $space->all('inherits');

unload

unload() (Self)

The unload method unloads a package space by nullifying its symbol table and removing it from %INC.

Since 1.02

unload example 1

package main;

use Venus::Space;

# Bar::Gen is generated with $VERSION as 0.01

my $space = Venus::Space->new('Bar/Gen');

$space->load;

my $unload = $space->unload;

# bless({ value => "Bar::Gen" }, "Venus::Space")

# Bar::Gen->VERSION was 0.01, now undef

# Symbol table remains, $space->visible is 1

use

use(Str | Tuple[Str, Str] $target, Any @params) (Space)

The use method executes a use statement within the package namespace specified.

Since 0.01

use example 1

package main;

use Venus::Space;

my $space = Venus::Space->new('foo/goo');

my $use = $space->use('Venus');

# bless({ value => "foo/goo" }, "Venus::Space")

use example 2

package main;

use Venus::Space;

my $space = Venus::Space->new('foo/hoo');

my $use = $space->use('Venus', 'error');

# bless({ value => "foo/hoo" }, "Venus::Space")

use example 3

package main;

use Venus::Space;

my $space = Venus::Space->new('foo/foo');

my $use = $space->use(['Venus', 9.99], 'error');

variables

variables() (ArrayRef[Tuple[Str, ArrayRef]])

The variables method searches the package namespace for variables and returns their names.

Since 0.01

variables example 1

package Etc;

our $init = 0;
our $func = 1;

our @does = (1..4);
our %sets = (1..4);

package main;

use Venus::Space;

my $space = Venus::Space->new('etc');

my $variables = $space->variables;

# [
#   ["arrays", ["does"]],
#   ["hashes", ["sets"]],
#   ["scalars", ["func", "init"]],
# ]

version

version() (Maybe[Str])

The version method returns the VERSION declared on the target package, if any.

Since 0.01

version example 1

package Foo::Boo;

sub import;

package main;

use Venus::Space;

my $space = Venus::Space->new('foo/boo');

my $version = $space->version;

# undef

version example 2

package Foo::Boo;

our $VERSION = 0.01;

package main;

use Venus::Space;

my $space = Venus::Space->new('foo/boo');

my $version = $space->version;

# 0.01

visible

visible() (Bool)

The visible method returns truthy is the package namespace is visible, i.e. has symbols defined.

Since 1.02

visible example 1

# given: synopsis

package main;

my $visible = $space->visible;

# 1

visible example 2

package Foo::Fe;

package main;

use Venus::Space;

my $space = Venus::Space->new('foo/fe');

my $visible = $space->visible;

# 0

visible example 3

package Foo::Fe;

our $VERSION = 0.01;

package main;

use Venus::Space;

my $space = Venus::Space->new('foo/fe');

my $visible = $space->visible;

# 1

visible example 4

package Foo::Fi;

sub import;

package main;
