NAME
Dist::Man::Plugin::Template - module starter with templates
VERSION
Version 0.0.1
SYNOPSIS
use Dist::Man qw(
Dist::Man::Simple
Dist::Man::Plugin::Template
);
Dist::Man->create_distro(%args);DESCRIPTION
This plugin is designed to be added to a Dist::Man::Simple-compatible Dist::Man class. It adds stub methods for template retrieval and rendering, and it replaces all of Simple's _guts methods with methods that will retrieve and render the apropriate templates.
CLASS METHODS
new(%args)
This plugin calls the new supermethod and then initializes the template store and renderer. (See templates and renderer below.)
OBJECT METHODS
templates()
This method is used to initialize the template store on the Dist::Man object. It returns a hash of templates; each key is a filename and each value is the body of the template. The filename Module.pm is used for the module template.
renderer()
This method is used to initialize the template renderer. Its result is stored in the object's renderer entry. The implementation will determine its use.
render($template, \%options)
The render method will render the template passed to it, using the data in the Dist::Man object and in the hash of passed parameters.
_guts methods
All of the FILE_guts methods from Dist::Man::Simple are subclassed to look something like this:
sub file_guts {
my $self = shift;
my %options;
@options{qw(first second third)} = @_;
my $template = $self->{templates}{filename};
$self->render($template, \%options);
}These methods will need to be rewritten when (as is likely) Dist::Man::Simple's _guts methods are refactored into a registry.
