Babble - EXPERIMENTAL Babel-like for perl
0.009001
If you're here for help dealing with changes in perl's signatures syntax, look at App::sigfix.
If you're here to try out Babble itself, you'll want to do
use Babble::Filter qw(::CorePluginName External::Plugin::Name);
to have it rewrite your code on the fly, or
perl -MBabble::Filter=::CorePluginName,External::Plugin::Name \ -0777 -pe babble lib/MyFile.pm >lib/MyFile.pmc
to rewrite for shipping.
Current core plugins are ::CoreSignatures, ::State, ::DefinedOr, ::PostfixDeref, ::SubstituteAndReturn (s//r), and ::SKT (which is a start on rewriting Syntax::Keyword::Try). For an example of an external plugin, see Method::Signatures::PP.
::CoreSignatures
::State
::DefinedOr
::PostfixDeref
::SubstituteAndReturn
::SKT
Not for 'normal' use but still interesting, ::Sigify attempts to convert simple @_ unrolls into signatures - best used on its own, followed by applying App::sigfix if you need the 5.22-5.26 oldsignatures style.
