NAME

Aion::Spirit - functions for controlling the program execution process

VERSION

0.0.1

SYNOPSIS

        use Aion::Spirit;
        
        package A {
            sub x_1() { 1 }
            sub x_2() { 2 }
            sub y_1($) { 1+shift }
            sub y_2($) { 2+shift }
        }
        
        aroundsub "A", qr/_2$/, sub { shift->(@_[1..$#_]) + .03 };
        
        A::x_1     # -> 1
        
        # Perl cached subroutines with prototype "()" in main:: as constant. aroundsub should be applied in a BEGIN block to avoid this:
        A::x_2         # -> 2
        (\&A::x_2)->() # -> 2.03
        
        # Functions with parameters not cached:
        A::y_1 .5  # -> 1.5
        A::y_2 .5  # -> 2.53

DESCRIPTION

A Perl program consists of packages, globals, subroutines, lists, and scalars. That is, it is simply data that, unlike a C program, can be “changed on the fly.”

Thus, this module provides convenient functions for transforming all these entities, as well as maintaining their integrity.

SUBROUTINES

aroundsub ($pkg, $re, $around)

Wraps the functions in the package in the specified regular sequence.

The package may not be specified for the current:

File N.pm:

        package N;
        
        use Aion::Spirit qw/aroundsub/;
        
        use constant z_2 => 10;
        
        aroundsub qr/_2$/, sub { shift->(@_[1..$#_]) + .03 };
        
        sub x_1() { 1 }
        sub x_2() { 2 }
        sub y_1($) { 1+shift }
        sub y_2($) { 2+shift }
        
        1;



        use lib ".";
        use N;
        
        N::x_1          # -> 1
        N::x_2          # -> 2.03
        N::y_1 0.5      # -> 1.5
        N::y_2 0.5      # -> 2.53

wrapsub ($sub, $around)

Wraps a function in the specified.

        sub sum(@) { my $x = 0; $x += $_ for @_; $x }
        
        BEGIN {
            *avg = wrapsub \&sum, sub { my $x = shift; $x->(@_) / @_ };
        }
        
        avg 1,2,5  # -> (1+2+5) / 3
        
        Sub::Util::subname \&avg   # => main::sum__AROUND

ASSERT ($ok, $message)

This is assert. This is checker scalar by nullable.

        my $ok = 0;
        ASSERT $ok == 0, "Ok";
        
        eval { ASSERT $ok, "Ok not equal 0!" }; $@  # ~> Ok not equal 0!
        
        my $ten = 11;
        
        eval { ASSERT $ten == 10, sub { "Ten maybe 10, but ten = $ten!" } }; $@  # ~> Ten maybe 10, but ten = 11!

firstidx (&sub, @list)

Searches the list for the first match and returns the index of the found element.

        firstidx { /3/ } 1,2,3  # -> 2
        firstidx { /4/ } 1,2,3  # -> undef
