NAME

IO::Interactive::Tiny - is_interactive() without large deps

VERSION

This document describes IO::Interactive::Tiny version 0.2

SYNOPSIS

    use IO::Interactive::Tiny;

    if ( IO::Interactive::Tiny::is_interactive() ) {
        print "I probably want text output.";
    }
    else {
        print "I probably want HTML output."; 
    }

DESCRIPTION

Provides the useful subset of IO::Interactive’s functionality in the form of only having is_interactive().

Also gains ::Tiny-ness by not using version, Carp, or Scalar::Util

INTERFACE

Nothing in exported or exportable, that helps keep it '::Tiny'.

IO::Interactive::Tiny::is_interactive()

Same functionality as "is_interactive()" in IO::Interactive:.

DIAGNOSTICS

IO::Interactive::Tiny throws no warnings or errors of its own.

CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT

IO::Interactive::Tiny requires no configuration files or environment variables.

DEPENDENCIES

None.

INCOMPATIBILITIES

None reported.

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS

No bugs have been reported.

Please report any bugs or feature requests to bug-io-interactive-tiny@rt.cpan.org, or through the web interface at http://rt.cpan.org.

About the '::Tiny' status

All info below is relative to IO::Interactive (v0.0.6).

See Acme::Tiny for information on the ::Tiny suffix.

#3 is really really close:

    [ -- RSS Memory -- ]
      Baseline perl 1204
      IO::Interactive 2464 (+1260)
      IO::Interactive::Tiny 1332 (+128)
    

Even though "time" isn't really a ::Tiny factor, it does improve loading a bit:

   [ -- time -- ]
    Baseline perl
      real  0m0.014s
      user  0m0.004s
      sys   0m0.008s
    
    IO::Interactive
      real  0m0.023s
      user  0m0.013s
      sys   0m0.009s
    
    IO::Interactive::Tiny
      real  0m0.013s
      user  0m0.004s
      sys   0m0.008s
      

Regarding tests: t/01.is_interactive.t i the same as t/is_interactive.t in IO::Interactive
