NAME

Class::Scaffold::Environment::Configurator - large-scale OOP application support

SYNOPSIS

    Class::Scaffold::Environment::Configurator->new;

DESCRIPTION

METHODS

instance
    my $obj = Class::Scaffold::Environment::Configurator->instance;
    my $obj = Class::Scaffold::Environment::Configurator->instance(%args);

Creates and returns a new object. The object will be a singleton, so repeated calls to the constructor will always return the same object. The constructor will accept as arguments a list of pairs, from component name to initial value. For each pair, the named component is initialized by calling the method of the same name with the given value. If called with a single hash reference, it is dereferenced and its key/value pairs are set as described before.

new
    my $obj = Class::Scaffold::Environment::Configurator->new;
    my $obj = Class::Scaffold::Environment::Configurator->new(%args);

Creates and returns a new object. The object will be a singleton, so repeated calls to the constructor will always return the same object. The constructor will accept as arguments a list of pairs, from component name to initial value. For each pair, the named component is initialized by calling the method of the same name with the given value. If called with a single hash reference, it is dereferenced and its key/value pairs are set as described before.

clear_configurators
    $obj->clear_configurators;

Deletes all elements from the array.

clear_local_configurator
    $obj->clear_local_configurator;

Clears the value.

configurators
    my @values    = $obj->configurators;
    my $array_ref = $obj->configurators;
    $obj->configurators(@values);
    $obj->configurators($array_ref);

Get or set the array values. If called without an arguments, it returns the array in list context, or a reference to the array in scalar context. If called with arguments, it expands array references found therein and sets the values.

configurators_clear
    $obj->configurators_clear;

Deletes all elements from the array.

configurators_count
    my $count = $obj->configurators_count;

Returns the number of elements in the array.

configurators_index
    my $element   = $obj->configurators_index(3);
    my @elements  = $obj->configurators_index(@indices);
    my $array_ref = $obj->configurators_index(@indices);

Takes a list of indices and returns the elements indicated by those indices. If only one index is given, the corresponding array element is returned. If several indices are given, the result is returned as an array in list context or as an array reference in scalar context.

configurators_pop
    my $value = $obj->configurators_pop;

Pops the last element off the array, returning it.

configurators_push
    $obj->configurators_push(@values);

Pushes elements onto the end of the array.

configurators_set
    $obj->configurators_set(1 => $x, 5 => $y);

Takes a list of index/value pairs and for each pair it sets the array element at the indicated index to the indicated value. Returns the number of elements that have been set.

configurators_shift
    my $value = $obj->configurators_shift;

Shifts the first element off the array, returning it.

configurators_splice
    $obj->configurators_splice(2, 1, $x, $y);
    $obj->configurators_splice(-1);
    $obj->configurators_splice(0, -1);

Takes three arguments: An offset, a length and a list.

Removes the elements designated by the offset and the length from the array, and replaces them with the elements of the list, if any. In list context, returns the elements removed from the array. In scalar context, returns the last element removed, or undef if no elements are removed. The array grows or shrinks as necessary. If the offset is negative then it starts that far from the end of the array. If the length is omitted, removes everything from the offset onward. If the length is negative, removes the elements from the offset onward except for -length elements at the end of the array. If both the offset and the length are omitted, removes everything. If the offset is past the end of the array, it issues a warning, and splices at the end of the array.

configurators_unshift
    $obj->configurators_unshift(@values);

Unshifts elements onto the beginning of the array.

count_configurators
    my $count = $obj->count_configurators;

Returns the number of elements in the array.

index_configurators
    my $element   = $obj->index_configurators(3);
    my @elements  = $obj->index_configurators(@indices);
    my $array_ref = $obj->index_configurators(@indices);

Takes a list of indices and returns the elements indicated by those indices. If only one index is given, the corresponding array element is returned. If several indices are given, the result is returned as an array in list context or as an array reference in scalar context.

instance_instance
    my $obj = Class::Scaffold::Environment::Configurator->instance_instance;
    my $obj = Class::Scaffold::Environment::Configurator->instance_instance(%args);

Creates and returns a new object. The constructor will accept as arguments a list of pairs, from component name to initial value. For each pair, the named component is initialized by calling the method of the same name with the given value. If called with a single hash reference, it is dereferenced and its key/value pairs are set as described before.

local_configurator
    my $value = $obj->local_configurator;
    $obj->local_configurator($value);

A basic getter/setter method. If called without an argument, it returns the value. If called with a single argument, it sets the value.

local_configurator_clear
    $obj->local_configurator_clear;

Clears the value.

new_instance
    my $obj = Class::Scaffold::Environment::Configurator->new_instance;
    my $obj = Class::Scaffold::Environment::Configurator->new_instance(%args);

Creates and returns a new object. The constructor will accept as arguments a list of pairs, from component name to initial value. For each pair, the named component is initialized by calling the method of the same name with the given value. If called with a single hash reference, it is dereferenced and its key/value pairs are set as described before.

pop_configurators
    my $value = $obj->pop_configurators;

Pops the last element off the array, returning it.

push_configurators
    $obj->push_configurators(@values);

Pushes elements onto the end of the array.

set_configurators
    $obj->set_configurators(1 => $x, 5 => $y);

Takes a list of index/value pairs and for each pair it sets the array element at the indicated index to the indicated value. Returns the number of elements that have been set.

shift_configurators
    my $value = $obj->shift_configurators;

Shifts the first element off the array, returning it.

splice_configurators
    $obj->splice_configurators(2, 1, $x, $y);
    $obj->splice_configurators(-1);
    $obj->splice_configurators(0, -1);

Takes three arguments: An offset, a length and a list.

Removes the elements designated by the offset and the length from the array, and replaces them with the elements of the list, if any. In list context, returns the elements removed from the array. In scalar context, returns the last element removed, or undef if no elements are removed. The array grows or shrinks as necessary. If the offset is negative then it starts that far from the end of the array. If the length is omitted, removes everything from the offset onward. If the length is negative, removes the elements from the offset onward except for -length elements at the end of the array. If both the offset and the length are omitted, removes everything. If the offset is past the end of the array, it issues a warning, and splices at the end of the array.

unshift_configurators
    $obj->unshift_configurators(@values);

Unshifts elements onto the beginning of the array.
