=head1 NAME
Astro::FITS::Header - Object Orientated interface to FITS HDUs
=head1 SYNOPSIS
$header = new Astro::FITS::Header( Cards => \@array );
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Stores information about a FITS header block in an object. Takes an hash
with an array reference as an argument. The array should contain a list
of FITS header cards as input.

=item B<new>
Create a new instance from an array of FITS header cards.
$item = new Astro::FITS::Header( Cards => \@header );
returns a reference to a Header object. If you pass in no cards,
you get the (required) first SIMPLE card for free.

=item B<tiereturnsref>
Indicates whether the tied object should return multiple values
as a single string joined by newline characters (false) or
it should return a reference to an array containing all the values.
Only affects the tied interface.
tie %keywords, "Astro::FITS::Header", $header, tiereturnsref => 1;
$ref = $keywords{COMMENT};
Defaults to returning a single string in all cases (for backwards
compatibility)

=item B<subhdrs>
Set or return the subheaders for a Header object. Arguments must be
given as C<Astro::FITS::Header> objects.
$header->subhdrs(@hdrs);
@hdrs = $header->subhdrs;
This method should be used when you have additional header components
that should be associated with the primary header but they are not
associated with a particular name, just an ordering.
FITS headers that are associated with a name can be stored directly
in the header using an C<Astro::FITS::Header::Item> of type 'HEADER'.

=item B<configure>
Configures the object, takes an array of FITS header cards,
an array of Astro::FITS::Header::Item objects or a simple hash as input.
If you feed in nothing at all, it uses a default array containing
just the SIMPLE card required at the top of all FITS files.
$header->configure( Cards => \@array );
$header->configure( Items => \@array );
$header->configure( Hash => \%hash );
Does nothing if the array is not supplied. If the hash scheme is used
and the hash contains the special key of SUBHEADERS pointing to an
array of hashes, these will be read as proper sub headers. All other
references in the hash will be ignored. Note that the default key
order will be retained in the object created via the hash.

=item B<merge_primary>
Given the current header and a set of C<Astro::FITS::Header> objects,
return a merged FITS header (with the cards that have the same value
and comment across all headers) along with, for each input, header
objects containing all the header items that differ (including, by
default, keys that are not present in all headers). Only the primary
headers are merged, subheaders are ignored.
($clone) = $headerr->merge_primary();
($same, @different) = $header->merge_primary( $fits1, $fits2, ...);
($same, @different) = $header->merge_primary( \%options, $fits1, $fits2 );
@different can be empty if all headers match (but see the
C<force_return_diffs> option) but if any headers are different there
will always be the same number of headers in @different as supplied to
the function (including the reference header). A clone of the input header
(stripped of any subheaders) is returned if no comparison headers are
supplied.
In scalar context, just returns the merged header.
$merged = $header->merge_primary( @hdrs );
The options hash is itself optional. It contains the following keys:
merge_unique - if an item is identical across multiple headers and only
exists in those headers, propagate to the merged header rather
than storing it in the difference headers.
force_return_diffs - return an empty difference object per input header
even if there are no diffs

=head1 TIED INTERFACE
The C<FITS::Header> object can also be tied to a hash:
use Astro::FITS::Header;
$header = new Astro::FITS::Header( Cards => \@array );
tie %hash, "Astro::FITS::Header", $header
$value = $hash{$keyword};
$hash{$keyword} = $value;
print "keyword $keyword is present" if exists $hash{$keyword};
foreach my $key (keys %hash) {
print "$key = $hash{$key}\n";
}
=head2 Basic hash translation
Header value type is determined on-the-fly by parsing of the input values.
Anything that parses as a number or a logical is converted to that before
being put in a card (but see below).
Per-card comment fields can be accessed using the tied interface by specifying
a key name of "key_COMMENT". This works because in general "_COMMENT" is too
long to be confused with a normal key name.
$comment = $hdr{CRPIX1_COMMENT};
will return the comment associated with CRPIX1 header item. The comment
can be modified in the same way:
$hdr{CRPIX1_COMMENT} = "An axis";
You can also modify the comment by slash-delimiting it when setting the
associated keyword:
$hdr{CRPIX1} = "34 / Set this field manually";
If you want an actual slash character in your string field you must escape
it with a backslash. (If you're in double quotes you have to use a double
backslash):
$hdr{SLASHSTR} = 'foo\/bar / field contains "foo/bar"';
Keywords are CaSE-inNSEnSiTIvE, unlike normal hash keywords. All
keywords are translated to upper case internally, per the FITS standard.
Aside from the SIMPLE and END keywords, which are automagically placed at
the beginning and end of the header respectively, keywords are included
in the header in the order received. This gives you a modicum of control
over card order, but if you actually care what order they're in, you
probably don't want the tied interface.
=head2 Comment cards
Comment cards are a special case because they have no normal value and
their comment field is treated as the hash value. The keywords
"COMMENT" and "HISTORY" are magic and refer to comment cards; nearly all other
keywords create normal valued cards. (see "SIMPLE and END cards", below).
=head2 Multi-card values
Multiline string values are broken up, one card per line in the
string. Extra-long string values are handled gracefully: they get
split among multiple cards, with a backslash at the end of each card
image. They're transparently reassembled when you access the data, so
that there is a strong analogy between multiline string values and multiple
cards.
In general, appending to hash entries that look like strings does what
you think it should. In particular, comment cards have a newline
appended automatically on FETCH, so that
$hash{HISTORY} .= "Added multi-line string support";
adds a new HISTORY comment card, while
$hash{TELESCOP} .= " dome B";
only modifies an existing TELESCOP card.
You can make multi-line values by feeding in newline-delimited
strings, or by assigning from an array ref. If you ask for a tag that
has a multiline value it's always expanded to a multiline string, even
if you fed in an array ref to start with. That's by design: multiline
string expansion often acts as though you are getting just the first
value back out, because perl string-to-number conversion stops at the
first newline. So:
$hash{CDELT1} = [3,4,5];
print $hash{CDELT1} + 99,"\n$hash{CDELT1}";
prints "102\n3\n4\n5", and then
$hash{CDELT1}++;
print $hash{CDELT1};
prints "4".
In short, most of the time you get what you want. But you can always fall
back on the non-tied interface by calling methods like so:
((tied $hash)->method())
If you prefer to have multi-valued items automagically become array
refs, then you can get that behavior using the C<tiereturnsref> method:
tie %keywords, "Astro::FITS::Header", $header, tiereturnsref => 1;
When tiereturnsref is true, multi-valued items will be returned via a
reference to an array (ties do not respect calling context). Note that
if this is configured you will have to test each return value to see
whether it is returning a real value or a reference to an array if you
are not sure whether there will be more than one card with a duplicate
name.
=head2 Type forcing
Because perl uses behind-the-scenes typing, there is an ambiguity
between strings and numeric and/or logical values: sometimes you want
to create a STRING card whose value could parse as a number or as a
logical value, and perl kindly parses it into a number for you. To
force string evaluation, feed in a trivial array ref:
$hash{NUMSTR} = 123; # generates an INT card containing 123.
$hash{NUMSTR} = "123"; # generates an INT card containing 123.
$hash{NUMSTR} = ["123"]; # generates a STRING card containing "123".
$hash{NUMSTR} = [123]; # generates a STRING card containing "123".
$hash{ALPHA} = "T"; # generates a LOGICAL card containing T.
$hash{ALPHA} = ["T"]; # generates a STRING card containing "T".
Calls to keys() or each() will, by default, return the keywords in the order
in which they appear in the header.
=head2 Sub-headers
When the key refers to a subheader entry (ie an item of type
"HEADER"), a hash reference is returned. If a hash reference is
stored in a value it is converted to a C<Astro::FITS::Header> object.
If the special key "SUBHEADERS" is used, it will return the array of
subheaders, (as stored using the C<subhdrs> method) each of which will
be tied to a hash. Subheaders can be stored using normal array operations.
=head2 SIMPLE and END cards
No FITS interface would becomplete without special cases.
When you assign to SIMPLE or END, the tied interface ensures that they
are first or last, respectively, in the deck -- as the FITS standard
requires. Other cards are inserted in between the first and last
elements, in the order that you define them.
The SIMPLE card is forced to FITS LOGICAL (boolean) type. The FITS
standard forbids you from setting it to F, but you can if you want --
we're not the FITS police.
The END card is forced to a null type, so any value you assign to it
will fall on the floor. If present in the deck, the END keyword
always contains the value " ", which is both more-or-less invisible
when printed and also true -- so you can test the return value to see
if an END card is present.
SIMPLE and END come pre-defined from the constructor. If for some
nefarious reason you want to remove them you must explicitly do so
with "delete" or the appropriate method call from the object
interface.
