#######################################DESCRIPTION
This Moose::Role is mostly written for Data::Walk::Extracted. Both Data::Dumper - Dump and YAML - Dump functions are more mature than the printing function included here. This is largely a demonstation module.
If this Role is used with another Module it requires a '_has_secondary' Attribute in the class. This attribute is already implemented in Data::Walk::Extracted
v0.007
- State This code is still in Beta state and therefore is subject to change. I like the basics and will try to add rather than modify whenever possible in the future. The goal of future development will be focused on supporting additional branch types.
- Included ArrayRefs and HashRefs are supported nodes for printing. Strings and Numbers are all currently treated as base states and printed as strings.
- Excluded Objects and CodeRefs are not currently handled and may cause the code to die.
Use
One way to incorporate this role into Data::Walk::Extracted and then use it is the method 'with_traits' from Moose::Util. Otherwise see Moose::Manual::Roles.
Attributes
Data passed to ->new when creating an instance using a class. For modification of these attributes see "Methods". The ->new function will either accept fat comma lists or a complete hash ref that has the possible appenders as the top keys.
match_highlighting
- Definition: this determines if a comments string is added after each printed row that indicates how the 'print_ref' matches the 'match_ref' (or not).
- Default True (1)
- Range This is a Boolean data type and generally accepts 1 or 0
Attributes in Data::Walk::Extracted
also affect the output.
Methods
set_match_highlighting( $bool )
- Definition: this is a way to change the match_highlighting attribute
- Accepts: a Boolean value
- Returns: 1
print_data( $arg_ref|%args )
- Definition: this is the method used to print a data reference
- Accepts: either a single variable or One or two named arguments
-
- single variable option - if only one variable is sent and it fails the test for "exists $variable->{print_ref}" then the program will attempt to name it as print_ref => $variable
- named variable options - if variables are named including one with 'print_ref' then the following two named variables are accepted
- Returns: 1 (And prints out the data ref with matching assesment comments per "match_highlighting")
GLOBAL VARIABLES
- $ENV{Smart_Comments}
-
The module uses Smart::Comments with the '-ENV' option so setting the variable $ENV{Smart_Comments} will turn on smart comment reporting. There are three levels of 'Smartness' called in this module '### #### #####'. See the Smart::Comments documentation for more information.
