NAME
Stencil.pm - Short intro
VERSION
Version 0.1000, released 2015-01-15.
SYNOPSIS
# In a plugin (this is pretty similar to what ToUnparsedText does)
sub render {
my $self = shift;
my @out = ();
STENCIL:
foreach my $stencil ($self->stenciller->all_stencils) {
push @out => join "\n" => $stencil->all_before_input;
push @out => join "\n" => $stencil->all_input;
push @out => join "\n" => $stencil->all_between;
push @out => join "\n" => $stencil->all_output;
push @out => join "\n" => $stencil->all_after_output;
}
return join "\n" => @out;
}
DESCRIPTION
Stenciller reads a special fileformat and provides a way to convert the content into different types of output. For example, it can be used to create documentation and tests from the same source file.
File format
== stencil {} ==
--input--
--end input--
--output--
--end output--
This is the basic layout. A stencil ends when a new stencil block is discovered (there is no set limit to the number of stencils in a file). The (optional) hash is for settings. Each stencil has five parts: before_input
, input
, between
, output
and after_output
. In addition to this there is a header before the first stencil.
ATTRIBUTES
filepath
File | required | read-only |
The textfile to parse.
header_lines
ArrayRef[ Str ] | optional, default is a coderef
|
read/write |
After parsing, this contains all lines in the header.
is_utf8
Bool | optional, default: 1
|
read-only |
Determines how the stencil file is read.
skip_if_input_empty
Bool | optional, default: 1
|
read-only |
If a stencil has no input content, skip entire stencil.
skip_if_output_empty
Bool | optional, default: 1
|
read-only |
If a stencil has no output content, skip entire stencil.
stencils
ArrayRef[ Stencil ] | optional, default is a coderef
|
read/write |
After parsing, this contains all parsed stencils.
