PPIx::QuoteLike::Token::Interpolation - Represent an interpolation
This class should not be instantiated by the user. See below for public methods.
PPIx::QuoteLike::Token::Interpolation is a PPIx::QuoteLike::Token.
PPIx::QuoteLike::Token::Interpolation
PPIx::QuoteLike::Token::Interpolation has no descendants.
This Perl class represents an interpolation into a quote-like string.
This class supports the following public methods in addition to those of its superclass:
my $ppi = $elem->ppi();
This convenience method returns the PPI::Document representing the content. This document should be considered read only. An exception will be thrown if PPI::Document can not be loaded.
Note that the content of the returned PPI::Document may not be the same as the content of the original PPIx::Regexp::Token::Interpolation. This can happen because interpolated variable names may be enclosed in curly brackets, but this does not happen in normal code. For example, in /${foo}bar/, the content of the PPIx::Regexp::Token::Interpolation object will be '${foo}', but the content of the PPI::Document will be '$foo'.
PPIx::Regexp::Token::Interpolation
/${foo}bar/
'${foo}'
PPI::Document
'$foo'
say "Interpolates $_" for $elem->variables();
This convenience method returns all interpolated variables. Each is returned only once, and they are returned in no particular order.
NOTE that this method is discouraged, and may well be deprecated and removed. My problem with it is that it returns variable names rather than PPI::Element objects, leaving you no idea how the variables are used. It was originally written for the benefit of Perl::Critic::Policy::Variables::ProhibitUnusedVarsStricter, but has proven inadequate to that policy's needs.
