        $^W = 1;

DESCRIPTION¶

This module uses PPI to change the package name of code.

METHODS¶

new()

Constructor. Generally shouldn't be called with any arguments.

rename( ppi => PPI::Document $ppi, filename => Str ) =item rename( code => Str $code, filename => Str )

Accepts either a "PPI::Document" to process or a string containing the code (which will be converted into a "PPI::Document") to process. Replaces the package name with that supplied in the "filename" parameter and returns a "PPIx::EditorTools::ReturnObject" with the new code available via the "ppi" or "code" accessors, as a "PPI::Document" or "string", respectively.

An attempt will be made to derive the package name from the filename passed as a parameter. The filename's path will converted to an absolute path and it will be searched for a "lib" directory which will be assumed the start of the package name. If no "lib" directory can be found in the absolute path, the relative path will be used.

Croaks with a "package name not found" exception if unable to find the package name.
