NAME

Attean::API::Parser - Parser role

VERSION

This document describes Attean::API::Parser version 0.031

DESCRIPTION

The Attean::API::Parser role defines a common API for all parsers of typed objects from data (either a byte string or a filehandle).

ATTRIBUTES

The following attributes exist:

handler

A code reference that will be called during callback-variant parsing methods. This attribute has a default (no-op function), so specifying it is not necessary if using iterator- or list-variant parsing methods.

REQUIRED METHODS

The following methods are required by the Attean::API::Parser role:

canonical_media_type

Returns the canonical media type string for the format of this parser.

media_types

Returns an ARRAY reference of media type strings that are acceptable as input to this parser.

handled_type

Returns a Type::Tiny object representing the type of items that result from parsing.

file_extensions

Returns an ARRAY reference of file extensions commonly associated with the media types supported by the parser (and returned by media_types). File extensions should NOT include a leading dot.

new_iri( value => $value )

Constructs and returns a new Attean::IRI object, respecting the parser's lazy_iris attribute.
