The captures method returns the capture groups from the result object which contains information about the results of the regular expression operation. This method can return a list of values in list-context.

captures() (ArrayRef)

{ since => '0.01', }

=example-1 captures

# given: synopsis;

my $captures = $replace->captures;

# ["world"]

The count method returns the number of match occurrences from the result object which contains information about the results of the regular expression operation.

count() (Num)

{ since => '0.01', }

=example-1 count

# given: synopsis;

my $count = $replace->count;

# 1

The evaluate method performs the regular expression operation and returns an arrayref representation of the results.

evaluate() (ArrayRef)

{ since => '0.01', }

=example-1 evaluate

# given: synopsis;

my $evaluate = $replace->evaluate;

# [
#   "(world)",
#   "hello universe",
#   1,
#   [6, 6],
#   [11, 11],
#   {},
#   "hello world",
# ]

The explain method returns the subject of the regular expression operation and is used in stringification operations.

explain() (Str)

{ since => '0.01', }

=example-1 explain

# given: synopsis;

my $explain = $replace->explain;

# "hello universe"

The get method returns the subject of the regular expression operation.

get() (Str)

{ since => '0.01', }

=example-1 get

# given: synopsis;

my $get = $replace->get;

# "hello universe"

The initial method returns the unaltered string from the result object which contains information about the results of the regular expression operation.

initial() (Str)

{ since => '0.01', }

=example-1 initial

# given: synopsis;

my $initial = $replace->initial;

# "hello world"

The last_match_end method returns an array of offset positions into the string where the capture(s) stopped matching from the result object which contains information about the results of the regular expression operation.

last_match_end() (Maybe[ArrayRef[Int]])

{ since => '0.01', }

=example-1 last_match_end

# given: synopsis;

my $last_match_end = $replace->last_match_end;

# [11, 11]

The last_match_start method returns an array of offset positions into the string where the capture(s) matched from the result object which contains information about the results of the regular expression operation.

last_match_start() (Maybe[ArrayRef[Int]])

{ since => '0.01', }

=example-1 last_match_start

# given: synopsis;

my $last_match_start = $replace->last_match_start;

# [6, 6]

The matched method returns the portion of the string that matched from the result object which contains information about the results of the regular expression operation.

matched() (Maybe[Str])

{ since => '0.01', }

=example-1 matched

# given: synopsis;

my $matched = $replace->matched;

# "world"

The named_captures method returns a hash containing the requested named regular expressions and captured string pairs from the result object which contains information about the results of the regular expression operation.

named_captures() (HashRef)

{ since => '0.01', }

=example-1 named_captures

# given: synopsis;

my $named_captures = $replace->named_captures;

# {}

The prematched method returns the portion of the string before the regular expression matched from the result object which contains information about the results of the regular expression operation.

prematched() (Maybe[Str)

{ since => '0.01', }

=example-1 prematched

# given: synopsis;

my $prematched = $replace->prematched;

# "hello "

The postmatched method returns the portion of the string after the regular expression matched from the result object which contains information about the results of the regular expression operation.

postmatched() (Maybe[Str)

{ since => '0.01', }

=example-1 postmatched

# given: synopsis;

my $postmatched = $replace->postmatched;

# ""

The set method sets the subject of the regular expression operation.

set(Str $data) (Str)

{ since => '0.01', }

=example-1 set

# given: synopsis;

my $set = $replace->set('hello universe');

# "hello universe"
