NAME¶
PPIx::EditorTools::IntroduceTemporaryVariable - Introduces a temporary variable
using PPI
SYNOPSIS¶
my $munged = PPIx::EditorTools::IntroduceTemporaryVariable->new->introduce(
code => "use strict; BEGIN {
$^W = 1;
}\n\tmy $x = ( 1 + 10 / 12 ) * 2;\n\tmy $y = ( 3 + 10 / 12 ) * 2;\n",
start_location => [ 2, 19 ],
end_location => [ 2, 25 ],
varname => '$foo',
);
my $modified_code_as_string = $munged->code;
my $location_of_new_var_declaration = $munged->element->location;
DESCRIPTION¶
Given a region of code within a statement, replaces all occurrences of that code
with a temporary variable. Declares and initializes the temporary variable
right above the statement that included the selected expression.
METHODS¶
- new()
- Constructor. Generally shouldn't be called with any
arguments.
- find( ppi => PPI::Document, start_location => Int,
end_location => Int, varname => Str ) =item find( code => Str,
start_location => Int, end_location => Int, varname => Str )
- Accepts either a "PPI::Document" to process or a
string containing the code (which will be converted into a
"PPI::Document") to process.
Given the region of code specified by start_location and end_location,
replaces that code with a temporary variable with the name given in
varname (defaults to "tmp"). Declares and initializes the
temporary variable right above the statement that included the selected
expression.
Returns a "PPIx::EditorTools::ReturnObject" with the modified code
as a string available via the "code" accessor (or as a
"PPI::Document" via the "ppi" accessor), and the
"PPI::Token" where the new variable is declared available via
the "element" accessor.
Croaks with a "no token" exception if no token is found at the
location. Croaks with a "no statement" exception if unable to
find the statement.
