NAME

Perinci::Examples::Stream - Examples for streaming input/output

VERSION

This document describes version 0.811 of Perinci::Examples::Stream (from Perl distribution Perinci-Examples), released on 2018-12-07.

DESCRIPTION

This package contains functions that demonstrate streaming input/output.

FUNCTIONS

count_ints

Usage:

 count_ints(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]

This function accepts a stream of integers and return the number of integers input.

This function is not exported.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • input => array[int]

    Numbers.

Returns an enveloped result (an array).

First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (payload) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (any)

count_lines

Usage:

 count_lines(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]

Count number of lines in the input.

This function is not exported.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • input => array[str]

    Lines.

Returns an enveloped result (an array).

First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (payload) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (any)

count_words

Usage:

 count_words(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]

This function produces a stream of hashes.

This function is not exported.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • num => int

    Limit number of entries to produce.

    The default is to produce an infinite number.

Returns an enveloped result (an array).

First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error).

Return value: (array[hash])

produce_ints

Usage:

 produce_ints(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]

This function produces a stream of integers, starting from 1.

Return value: (array[int])

produce_words

Usage:

 produce_words(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • num => int
