NAME

       String::RewritePrefix - rewrite strings based on a set of known prefixes

VERSION

       version 0.009

SYNOPSIS

         use String::RewritePrefix;
         my @to_load = String::RewritePrefix->rewrite(
           { '' => 'MyApp::', '+' => '' },
           qw(Plugin Mixin Addon +Corporate::Thinger),
         );

         # now you have:
         qw(MyApp::Plugin MyApp::Mixin MyApp::Addon Corporate::Thinger)

       You can also import a rewrite routine:

         use String::RewritePrefix rewrite => {
           -as => 'rewrite_dt_prefix',
           prefixes => { '' => 'MyApp::', '+' => '' },
         };

         my @to_load = rewrite_dt_prefix( qw(Plugin Mixin Addon +Corporate::Thinger));

         # now you have:
         qw(MyApp::Plugin MyApp::Mixin MyApp::Addon Corporate::Thinger)

PERL VERSION

       This module should work on any version of perl still receiving updates from the Perl 5
       Porters.  This means it should work on any version of perl released in the last two to
       three years.  (That is, if the most recently released version is v5.40, then this module
       should work on both v5.40 and v5.38.)

       Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made that the minimum
       required version will not be increased.  The version may be increased for any reason, and
       there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl.

METHODS

   rewrite
         String::RewritePrefix->rewrite(\%prefix, @strings);

       This rewrites all the given strings using the rules in %prefix.  Its keys are known
       prefixes for which its values will be substituted.  This is performed in longest-first
       order, and only one prefix will be rewritten.

       If the prefix value is a coderef, it will be executed with the remaining string as its
       only argument.  The return value will be used as the prefix.
