=head1 NAME
App::VOJournal::VOTL - deal with vimoutliner files
=head1 VERSION
Version v0.4.7
=cut
use version; our $VERSION = qv('v0.4.7');
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use App::VOJournal::VOTL;
my $votl = App::VOJournal::VOTL->new();
$votl->fetch_line($pos);
$votl->insert_line($pos,$line);
$votl->read_file($infilename);
$votl->write_file($outfilename);
$votl->write_file($outfilename, \&filter);
$votl->write_file_no_checked_boxes($outfilename);
$votl->write_file_unchecked_boxes($outfilename);
=head1 SUBROUTINES/METHODS
=head2 new
Creates a new object.
my $votl = App::VOJournal::VOTL->new();
=cut
sub new
{
my $class = shift;
my $arg = shift;
my $self = {};
$self->{objects} = [];
bless($self, $class);
return $self;
}
=head2 fetch_line
$votl->fetch_line( $pos );
Fetches the value of the object at position C<$pos>. That means the line as it
would appear in the Vimoutliner file.
The available positions start at 0 and at 1 before the number of objects.
If C<$pos> is outside the available positions the function returns nothing.
At the moment you can only retrieve the objcects in the top level.
=cut
sub fetch_line {
my ($self, $pos) = @_;
my $noobjs = $#{$self->{objects}};
my $position = (0 > $pos) ? $noobjs
: ($pos > $noobjs) ? -1
: $pos;
if (-1 == $position) {
return;
}
return $self->{objects}->[$position]->{value};
} # fetch_line()
=head2 delete_line
$votl->delete_line($pos);
Deletes an object from the Vimoutliner file. That means the line itself and
all immediately following lines that are more indented.
At the moment you can only delete objects in the top level.
=cut
sub delete_line {
my ($self, $pos) = @_;
my $objects = [];
my $noobjs = $#{$self->{objects}};
my $position = (0 > $pos) ? $noobjs
: ($pos > $noobjs) ? -1
: $pos;
if (-1 == $position) {
return;
}
while ($position) {
push @$objects, shift @{$self->{objects}};
$position--;
}
shift @{$self->{objects}};
push @$objects, @{$self->{objects}};
$self->{objects} = $objects;
} # delete_line()
=head2 insert_line
Inserts a line into a vimoutliner data structure.
$votl->insert_line( $pos, $line );
=over 4
=item C<$pos>
determines the position where the object shall be inserted.
This could be a number telling the position:
=over 4
=item B<-1>
means at the last position, i.e. after the last already existing element.
=item B<0>
means at position 0, i.e. before the first already existing element.
=item B<n>
means at that position.
All already existing objects at that and the following positions will be
shifted to the next position.
If the argument C<$pos> exceeds the number of already existing objects, the
object is inserted immediately following the last already existing object.
=back
At the moment all lines are inserted at the top level.
=item C<$line>
This may be a string which is inserted as is.
=back
=cut
sub insert_line {
my ($self, $pos, $line) = @_;
my $objects = [];
my $noobjs = 1 + $#{$self->{objects}};
my $position = (0 > $pos) ? $noobjs
: ($pos > $noobjs) ? $noobjs
: $pos;
while ($position) {
push @$objects, shift @{$self->{objects}};
$position--;
}
push @$objects, {value => $line}, @{$self->{objects}};
$self->{objects} = $objects;
} # insert_line()
=head2 read_file
Reads a vimoutliner file.
$votl->read_file( $filename );
sub filter { ... }
$votl->read_file( $filename, \&filter );
C<$filename> is the name of the file read.
It is possible to give a reference to a filter function that decides, which
objects / lines to read. This filter function is called back with the content
of the current line (after the indentation) and the depth of indentation as
arguments. If you need to manage some state you can use closures like this:
my $in_checked_box = 0;
my $cbl = 0;
my $filter = sub {
my ($object,$indent) = @_;
if ($in_checked_box && $indent > $cbl) {
return 0;
}
elsif (_checked_box($object)) {
$in_checked_box = 1;
$cbl = $indent;
return 0;
}
else {
$in_checked_box = 0;
return 1;
}
};
$votl->read_file( $filename, $filter );
=cut
sub read_file {
my ($self,$filename,$filter) = @_;
if (open my $input, '<', $filename) {
$self->{objects} = [];
while (<$input>) {
if (/^(\t*)(.*)$/) {
$self->_add_something($1, {
children => [],
value => $2
}, $filter);
}
else {
die "unknown line: $_";
}
}
close $input;
return 1 + $#{$self->{objects}};
}
return;
} # read_file()
=head2 read_file_no_checked_boxes
This is a convenience function that reads all lines except checked boxes
(lines starting with C<[X]>).
$votl->read_file_no_checked_boxes( $filename );
=cut
sub read_file_no_checked_boxes {
my ($self,$filename) = @_;
my $in_checked_box = 0;
my $cbl = 0;
my $filter = sub {
my ($object,$indent) = @_;
if ($in_checked_box && $indent > $cbl) {
return 0;
}
elsif (_checked_box($object)) {
$in_checked_box = 1;
$cbl = $indent;
return 0;
}
else {
$in_checked_box = 0;
return 1;
}
};
$self->read_file( $filename, $filter );
} # read_file_no_checked_boxes()
=head2 read_file_unchecked_boxes
This is a convenience function that reads all lines with unchecked boxes
(lines starting with C<[_]>).
$votl->read_file_unchecked_boxes( $filename );
=cut
sub read_file_unchecked_boxes {
my ($self,$filename) = @_;
my $unchecked_box = 0;
my $cbl = 0;
my $filter = sub {
my ($object,$indent) = @_;
if ($unchecked_box && $indent > $cbl) {
return 1;
}
elsif (_unchecked_box($object)) {
$unchecked_box = 1;
$cbl = $indent;
return 1;
}
else {
$unchecked_box = 0;
return 0;
}
};
$self->read_file( $filename, $filter );
} # read_file_unchecked_boxes()
=head2 write_file
Writes a vimoutliner file.
$votl->write_file( $filename );
sub filter { ... }
$votl->write_file( $filename, \&filter);
It is possible to give a reference to a filter function that decides, which
objects to write. This filter function is called back with the content
of the current line and the depth of indentation as arguments.
If you need to manage some state you can use closures as shown with the
C<read_file()> function.
=cut
sub write_file {
my ($self,$filename,$filter) = @_;
if (open my $output, '>', $filename) {
foreach my $object (@{$self->{objects}}) {
_write_object($object,0,$output,$filter);
}
close $output;
}
} # write_file()
=head2 write_file_no_checked_boxes
Writes a vimoutliner file that contains no checked boxes.
$votl->write_file_no_checked_boxes( $filename );
This is a convenience function using C<write_file()> and a predifined
filter.
=cut
sub write_file_no_checked_boxes {
my ($self,$filename) = @_;
my $filter = sub {
my ($object) = @_;
return ! _checked_box($object);
};
$self->write_file( $filename, $filter );
} # write_file_no_checked_boxes()
=head2 write_file_unchecked_boxes
Writes a vimoutliner file that only consists of unchecked boxes at level
zero and their descendants.
$votl->write_file_unchecked_boxes( $filename );
This is a convenience function using C<write_file()> and a predifined
filter.
=cut
sub write_file_unchecked_boxes {
my ($self,$filename) = @_;
my $filter = sub {
my ($object,$indent) = @_;
return $indent ? 1 : _unchecked_box($object);
};
$self->write_file( $filename, $filter );
} # write_file_unchecked_boxes()
sub _add_something {
my ($self,$tabs,$newobject,$filter) = @_;
my $indent = length $tabs;
if (defined $filter) {
return unless ($filter->($newobject,$indent));
}
my $objects = $self->_descend_objects($indent);
push @$objects, $newobject;
} # _add_something()
sub _checked_box {
my ($object) = @_;
return ($object->{value} =~ /^\[X\]/);
} # _checked_box()
sub _descend_objects {
my ($self,$indent) = @_;
my $objects = $self->{objects};
while (0 < $indent) {
if (0 > $#$objects) {
my $newobject = {
children => [],
};
push @$objects, $newobject;
$objects = $newobject->{children};
}
else {
$objects = $objects->[$#$objects]->{children};
}
$indent--;
}
return $objects;
} # _descend_objects()
sub _unchecked_box {
my ($object) = @_;
return ($object->{value} =~ /^\[_\]/);
} # _unchecked_box()
sub _write_object {
my ($object,$indent,$outfh, $filter) = @_;
if (defined $filter) {
return unless ($filter->($object,$indent));
}
print $outfh "\t" x $indent, $object->{value}, "\n";
foreach my $co (@{$object->{children}}) {
_write_object($co,$indent + 1,$outfh,$filter);
}
} # _write_object()
1;
# __END__
=head1 FORMAT OF VIMOUTLINER FILES
Vimoutliner files are text files with a hierarchical structure.
The hierarchical structure is characterized by the number of tabulator
signs (0x09) at the beginning of the line.
A line can be a simple-heading or an object, depending on the first
nontabulator sign of the line.
A simple heading starts with any non-whitespace character except
C<< : ; | < > >>.
A checkbox is a special form of a heading that starts with either
C<< [_] >> or C<< [X] >> after the leading tabulator signs.
A checkbox may contain a percent sign (C<%>) as a placeholder for
the percentage completed.
This percent sign must follow the initial C<< [_] >> after a separating
whitespace.
The following text objects are defined for vimoutliner files:
=over 4
=item C<:> - body text
The text following the C<:> will be wrapped automatically.
=item C<;> - preformatted body text
This text won't be wrapped automatically.
=item C<|> - table
The table headings can be marked with C<||>.
=item C<< > >> - user defined text.
This text will also be wrapped automatically.
=item C<< < >> - user defined preformatted text.
This text won't be wrapped automatically.
