NAME

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

VERSION

This document describes version 0.66 of Perinci::Examples::Stream (from Perl distribution Perinci-Examples), released on 2016-01-22.

DESCRIPTION

This package contains functions that demonstrate streaming input/output.

FUNCTIONS

hash_stream(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

This function produces a stream of hashes.

This function is not exportable.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • num => int

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 (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (hash)

nat(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

This function produces a stream of natural numbers.

This function is not exportable.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • num => int

    Limit number of numbers to produce.

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 (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (int)

square_input(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

This function squares its stream input.

This function is not exportable.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • input* => float

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 (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (float)

square_input_from_file(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

This function squares its stream input.

This function is not exportable.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • input* => float

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 (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (float)

square_input_from_stdin(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

This function squares its stream input.

This function is not exportable.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • input* => float

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 (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (float)

square_input_from_stdin_or_file(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

This function squares its stream input.

This function is not exportable.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • input* => float

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 (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (float)

wc(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

Count the number of lines/words/characters of input, like the "wc" command.

This function is not exportable.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • input* => str

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 (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (hash)

wc_keys(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

Count the number of keys of each hash.

This is a simple demonstration of accepting a stream of hashes. In command-line application this will translate to JSON stream.

This function is not exportable.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • input* => hash

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 (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (hash)

word(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

This function produces a stream of random words.

This function is not exportable.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • num => int

    Limit number of words to produce.

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 (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

Return value: (str)

word_err(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

Like word(), but 1 in every 10 words will be a non-word (which fails result schema).

This function is not exportable.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • num => int

    Limit number of words to produce.

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 (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.
