Apache::XPP::PreParse - XPP TAG Parser
use Apache::XPP::PreParse; $preparsers = Apache::XPP::PreParse->parsers; foreach (@{ $preparsers }) { $preparsers->( \$text ); }
Nothing
Apache::XPP::PreParse handles pre parsing of an xpp page to convert 'tags' into valid XPML. Tags are meant as a shortcut for code that might otherwise be burdensome or confusing for and xpml author, such as ref checking before calling a method: <xpp method="cities_popup_menu" obj="$app"> might be converted to: <?xpp if (ref($app)) { print $app->cities_popup_menu; } ?>.
parsers
Returns a new parser object
add_parser
Adds a parser to the list of registered pre-parsers.
parse_tag
Given an xpp TAG $tag, will return an array with two elements. The first element is an array reference of the order of keys in the tag. The second element is a hash reference to the key-value pairs.
dtag
This is for processing tags with a start tag and seperate end tag. All the data in between is sent to $subref->( $params, $data) where $params is a hashref containing all the key value pairs in the start tag and $data is the data contained in between the opening and closing tag.
parse_stag
Called by stag to parse the matched tag with the supplied rules.
stag
Given a string to match, uses the replace rules to replace tags that contain the $match with it's equivalent. See examples below for syntax of replace rules.
parser_xppcomment
Used to comment out blocks of xpml code.
Ex: <XPPCOMMENT> <title><?= $obj->title() ?></title> </XPPCOMMENT>
parser_xppcache
Cache a block of code using a specific expire/store module. Pass the caches name, group, expire, and store. See xppcachetut.pod for more information.
Ex: <XPPCACHE name="mycache" group="cachegroup" store="File" expire="Duration, 10s"> .... </XPPCACHE>
parser_appmethod
Assign or print an object method. Ref checks the object before using it. Assigns the result to the value of the as tag parameter. If this param isn't present the result is printed.
Ex: <XPP app app="$obj" attr="bleh" as="$var"> <XPP app app="$obj" attr="bleh">
parser_print
Prints the result of an object method.
Ex: <XPP print obj="$obj" attr="bleh">
parser_xppxinclude
Calls xinclude with the passed filename and options.
Ex: <XPP xinclude filename="include.xmi" options="$obj1, $obj2">
parser_xppforeach
Places the included block within a foreach loop. Assigning each element of the array to 'as.' If 'as' is not present it uses $_.
Ex: <XPPFOREACH array="@ary" as="$val"> <XPPFOREACH array="@ary">
parser_xppwhile
Places the included block within a while block, looping on the condition specified in 'condition'. If the option 'counter' is specified, the number of loops performed will be assigned to that scalar.
Ex: <XPPWHILE condition="my $bar = shift @foo" counter="$count"> Shifted off <?= $bar ?>.<BR> </XPPWHILE> I looped <?= $count ?> times.
parser_xppshift
Shifts one value off the given array (@_ if none is specified) and assigns the value to the specified scalar, scoped lexically (using my()).
@_
my()
Ex: <XPPSHIFT array="@ary" as="$val">
