NAME

       Data::Section::Simple - Read data from __DATA__

SYNOPSIS

         use Data::Section::Simple qw(get_data_section);

         # Functional interface -- reads from caller package __DATA__
         my $all = get_data_section; # All data in hash reference
         my $foo = get_data_section('foo.html');

         # OO - allows reading from other packages
         my $reader = Data::Section::Simple->new($package);
         my $all = $reader->get_data_section;

         __DATA__

         @@ foo.html
         <html>
          <body>Hello</body>
         </html>

         @@ bar.tt
         [% IF true %]
           Foo

DESCRIPTION

       Data::Section::Simple is a simple module to extract data from "__DATA__" section of the
       file.

LIMITATIONS

       As the name suggests, this module is a simpler version of the excellent Data::Section. If
       you want more functionalities such as merging data sections or changing header patterns,
       use Data::Section instead.

       This module does not implement caching (yet) which means in every "get_data_section" or
       "get_data_section($name)" this module seeks and re-reads the data section. If you want to
       avoid doing so for the better performance, you should implement caching in your own caller
       code.

BUGS

   __DATA__ appearing elsewhere
       If you data section has literal "__DATA__" in the data section, this module might be
       tricked by that. Although since its pattern match is greedy, "__DATA__" appearing before
       the actual data section (i.e. in the code) might be okay.

       This is by design -- in theory you can "tell" the DATA handle before reading it, but then
       reloading the data section of the file (handy for developing inline templates with PSGI
       web applications) would fail because the pos would be changed.

       If you don't like this design, again, use the superior Data::Section.

   utf8 pragma
       If you enable utf8 pragma in the caller's package (or the package you're inspecting with
       the OO interface), the data retrieved via "get_data_section" is decoded, but otherwise
       undecoded. There's no reliable way for this module to programmatically know whether utf8
       pragma is enabled or not: it's your responsibility to handle them correctly.
