DESCRIPTION
This is a library of methods for Sub::HandlesVia.
DELEGATABLE METHODS
"append( $tail )"
Arguments: Str.
Appends another string to the end of the current string and updates the attribute.
my $object = My::Class->new( attr => 'foo' );
$object->my_append( 'bar' );
say $object->attr; ## ==> 'foobar'
"chomp()"
Like "chomp" from perlfunc.
"chop()"
Like "chop" from perlfunc.
"clear()"
Sets the string to the empty string.
my $object = My::Class->new( attr => 'foo' );
$object->my_clear;
say $object->attr; ## nothing
"cmp( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns "$object->attr cmp $str".
"cmpi( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns "fc($object->attr) cmp fc($str)". Uses "lc" instead of "fc" in versions of Perl
older than 5.16.
"contains( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns true iff the string contains $str.
"contains_i( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns true iff the string contains $str case-insensitvely.
"ends_with( $tail )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns true iff the string ends with $tail.
"ends_with_i( $tail )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns true iff the string ends with $tail case-insensitvely.
"eq( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns "$object->attr eq $str".
"eqi( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns "fc($object->attr) eq fc($str)". Uses "lc" instead of "fc" in versions of Perl
older than 5.16.
"fc()"
Returns "fc($object->attr)".
"ge( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns "$object->attr ge $str".
"gei( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns "fc($object->attr) ge fc($str)". Uses "lc" instead of "fc" in versions of Perl
older than 5.16.
"get()"
Gets the current value of the string.
my $object = My::Class->new( attr => 'foo' );
say $object->my_get; ## ==> 'foo'
"gt( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns "$object->attr gt $str".
"gti( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns "fc($object->attr) gt fc($str)". Uses "lc" instead of "fc" in versions of Perl
older than 5.16.
"inc()"
Performs "++" on the string.
"lc()"
Returns "lc($object->attr)".
"le( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns "$object->attr le $str".
"lei( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns "fc($object->attr) le fc($str)". Uses "lc" instead of "fc" in versions of Perl
older than 5.16.
"length()"
Like "length" from perlfunc.
my $object = My::Class->new( attr => 'foo' );
say $object->my_length; ## ==> 3
"lt( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns "$object->attr lt $str".
"lti( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns "fc($object->attr) lt fc($str)". Uses "lc" instead of "fc" in versions of Perl
older than 5.16.
"match( $regexp )"
Arguments: Str|RegexpRef.
Returns true iff the string matches the regexp.
my $object = My::Class->new( attr => 'foo' );
if ( $object->my_match( '^f..$' ) ) {
say 'matched!';
}
"match_i( $regexp )"
Arguments: Str|RegexpRef.
Returns true iff the string matches the regexp case-insensitively.
my $object = My::Class->new( attr => 'foo' );
if ( $object->my_match_i( '^F..$' ) ) {
say 'matched!';
}
"ne( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns "$object->attr ne $str".
"nei( $str )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns "fc($object->attr) ne fc($str)". Uses "lc" instead of "fc" in versions of Perl
older than 5.16.
"prepend( $head )"
Arguments: Str.
Prepends another string to the start of the current string and updates the attribute.
my $object = My::Class->new( attr => 'foo' );
$object->my_prepend( 'bar' );
say $object->attr; ## ==> 'barfoo'
"replace( $regexp, $replacement )"
Arguments: Str|RegexpRef, Str|CodeRef.
Replaces the first regexp match within the string with the replacement string.
my $object = My::Class->new( attr => 'foo' );
$object->my_replace( 'o' => 'a' );
say $object->attr; ## ==> 'fao'
my $object2 = My::Class->new( attr => 'foo' );
$object2->my_replace( qr/O/i => sub { return 'e' } );
say $object2->attr; ## ==> 'feo'
"replace_globally( $regexp, $replacement )"
Arguments: Str|RegexpRef, Str|CodeRef.
Replaces the all regexp matches within the string with the replacement string.
my $object = My::Class->new( attr => 'foo' );
$object->my_replace_globally( 'o' => 'a' );
say $object->attr; ## ==> 'faa'
my $object2 = My::Class->new( attr => 'foo' );
$object2->my_replace_globally( qr/O/i => sub { return 'e' } );
say $object2->attr; ## ==> 'fee'
"reset()"
Resets the attribute to its default value, or an empty string if it has no default.
"set( $value )"
Arguments: Str.
Sets the string to a new value.
my $object = My::Class->new( attr => 'foo' );
$object->my_set( 'bar' );
say $object->attr; ## ==> 'bar'
"starts_with( $head )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns true iff the string starts with $head.
"starts_with_i( $head )"
Arguments: Str.
Returns true iff the string starts with $head case-insensitvely.
"substr( $start, $length?, $replacement? )"
Arguments: Int, Optional[Int], Optional[Str].
Like "substr" from perlfunc, but is not an lvalue.
"uc()"
Returns "uc($object->attr)".
EXTENDED EXAMPLES
Using eq for Enum
use strict;
use warnings;
package My::Person {
use Moo;
use Sub::HandlesVia;
use Types::Standard qw( Str Enum );
has name => (
is => 'ro',
isa => Str,
required => 1,
);
has status => (
is => 'rwp',
isa => Enum[ 'alive', 'dead' ],
handles_via => 'String',
handles => {
is_alive => [ eq => 'alive' ],
is_dead => [ eq => 'dead' ],
kill => [ set => 'dead' ],
},
default => 'alive',
);
# Note: method modifiers work on delegated methods
#
before kill => sub {
my $self = shift;
warn "overkill" if $self->is_dead;
};
}
my $bob = My::Person->new( name => 'Robert' );
say $bob->is_alive; ## ==> true
say $bob->is_dead; ## ==> false
$bob->kill;
say $bob->is_alive; ## ==> false
say $bob->is_dead; ## ==> true

Match with curried regexp
use strict;
use warnings;
package My::Component {
use Moo;
use Sub::HandlesVia;
use Types::Standard qw( Str Int );
has id => (
is => 'ro',
isa => Int,
required => 1,
);
has name => (
is => 'ro',
isa => Str,
required => 1,
handles_via => 'String',
handles => {
name_is_safe_filename => [ match => qr/\A[A-Za-z0-9]+\z/ ],
_lc_name => 'lc',
},
);
sub config_filename {
my $self = shift;
if ( $self->name_is_safe_filename ) {
return sprintf( '%s.ini', $self->_lc_name );
}
return sprintf( 'component-%d.ini', $self->id );
}
}
my $foo = My::Component->new( id => 42, name => 'Foo' );
say $foo->config_filename; ## ==> 'foo.ini'
my $bar4 = My::Component->new( id => 99, name => 'Bar #4' );
say $bar4->config_filename; ## ==> 'component-99.ini'
