NAME
Data::Perl - Base classes wrapping fundamental Perl data types.
VERSION
version 0.002009
SYNOPSIS
use Data::Perl;
my $array = array(1,2,3, qw/a b c/);
$array->count; # 6
my @elements = $array->grep(sub {/b/}); # (b)
my $hash = hash(a => 1, b => 2);
$hash->keys; # ('a', 'b');
my $number = number(5);
$number->add(10); # 15
my $string = string("foo\n");
$string->chomp; # return 1, chomps string
my $counter = counter();
$counter->inc; # counter is now 1
my $sub = code(sub { 'foo' });
$sub->execute; # returns 'foo'
$foo
DESCRIPTION
Data::Perl is a collection of classes that wrap fundamental data types
that exist in Perl. These classes and methods as they exist today are an
attempt to mirror functionality provided by Moose's Native Traits. One
important thing to note is all classes currently do no validation on
constructor input.
Data::Perl is a container class for the following classes:
* Data::Perl::Collection::Hash
* Data::Perl::Collection::Array
* Data::Perl::String
* Data::Perl::Number
* Data::Perl::Counter
* Data::Perl::Bool
* Data::Perl::Code
ALPHA API
The API provided by these modules is as of now considered alpha and
undecided. The API WILL change. If you are writing code that you will
not touch again for years, do not use this until this warning is
removed.
PROVIDED FUNCTIONS
Data::Perl exports helper constructor functions to interface with the
above classes:
* hash(key, value, ...)
Returns a Data::Perl::Collection::Hash object initialized with the
optionally passed in key/value args.
* array(@args)
Returns a Data::Perl::Collection::Array object initialized with the
optionally passed in values.
* string($arg)
Returns a Data::Perl::String object initialized with the optionally
passed in scalar arg.
* number($arg)
Returns a Data::Perl::Number object initialized with the optionally
passed in scalar arg.
* counter($arg)
Returns a Data::Perl::Counter object initialized with the optionally
passed in scalar arg.
* bool($arg)
Returns a Data::Perl::Bool object initialized with the truth value
of the passed in scalar arg.
* code($arg)
Returns a Data::Perl::Code object initialized with the optionally
passed in scalar coderef as an arg.
THANKS
Much thanks to the Moose team for their work with native traits, for
which much of this work is based.
