This module is covered by the Type-Tiny stability policy.
new( %attrs )
The only currently supported attribute is description.
description
env()
Returns the current compilation environment, a hashref of variables to close over.
code()
Returns the source code so far.
description()
Returns the same description given to the constructor, if any.
add_line( @lines_of_code )
Adds the next line of code.
add_gap()
Adds a blank line of code.
increase_indent()
Increases the indentation level for subsequent lines of code.
decrease_indent()
Decreases the indentation level for subsequent lines of code.
add_variable( $varname, $reference_to_value )
Adds a variable to the compilation environment so that the coderef being generated can close over it.
If a variable already exists in the environment with that name, will instead add a variable with a different name and return that name. You should always continue to refer to the variable with that returned name, just in case.
add_placeholder( $placeholder_name )
Adds a line of code which is just a comment, but remembers its line number.
fill_placeholder( $placeholder_name, @lines_of_code )
Goes back to a previously inserted placeholder and replaces it with code.
As an alternative, add_placeholder returns a coderef, which you can call like $callback->( @lines_of_code ).
add_placeholder
$callback->( @lines_of_code )
compile( %opts )
Compiles the code and returns it as a coderef.
Options are passed on to eval_closure from Eval::TypeTiny, but cannot include code or environment. alias => 1 is probably the option most likely to be useful, but in general you won't need to provide any options.
eval_closure
code
environment
alias => 1
finalize()
This method is called by compile just before compiling the code. All it does is remove unfilled placeholder comments. It is not intended for end users to call, but is documented as it may be a useful hook if you are subclassing this class.
compile
