NAME
Filter::EOF - Run a callback after a file has been compiled
VERSION
0.04
SYNOPSIS
package MyPackage; use warnings; use strict; use Filter::EOF; sub import { my ($class, @args) = @_; my $caller = scalar caller; # set the COMPILE_TIME package var to a false value # when the file was compiled Filter::EOF->on_eof_call(sub { no strict 'refs'; ${ $caller . '::COMPILE_TIME' } = 0; }); # set the COMPILE_TIME package var to a true value when # we start compiling it. { no strict 'refs'; ${ $caller . '::COMPILE_TIME' } = 1; } } 1; ... package MyUsingPackage; use warnings; use strict; our $COMPILE_TIME; use MyPackage; # prints 'yes' BEGIN { print +( $COMPILE_TIME ? 'yes' : 'no' ), "\n" } # prints 'no' print +( $COMPILE_TIME ? 'yes' : 'no' ), "\n"; 1;
DESCRIPTION
This module utilises Perl's source filters to provide you with a mechanism to run some code after a file using your module has been processed.
METHODS
"import( @functions )" Currently, only a function equivalent of the "on_eof_call" method is provided for export. use Filter::EOF qw( on_eof_call ); sub import { my ($class) = @_; ... on_eof_call { ... }; } ... "on_eof_call( $code_ref )" Call this method in your own "import" method to register a code reference that should be called when the file "use"ing yours was compiled. The code reference will get a scalar reference as first argument to an empty string. if you change this string to something else, it will be appended at the end of the source. # call C<some_function()> after runtime. Filter->on_eof_call(sub { my $append = shift; $$append .= '; some_function(); 1;'; });
EXPORTS
on_eof_call You can optionally import the "on_eof_call" function into your namespace.
EXAMPLES
You can find the example mentioned in "SYNOPSIS" in the distribution directory "examples/synopsis/".
