SYNOPSIS

           use Code::TidyAll;

           my $ct = Code::TidyAll->new_from_conf_file(
               '/path/to/conf/file',
               ...
           );

           # or

           my $ct = Code::TidyAll->new(
               root_dir => '/path/to/root',
               plugins  => {
                   perltidy => {
                       select => 'lib/**/*.(pl|pm)',
                       argv => '-noll -it=2',
                   },
                   ...
               }
           );

           # then...

           $ct->process_paths($file1, $file2);

DESCRIPTION

       This is the engine used by tidyall - read that first to get an overview.

       You can call this API from your own program instead of executing "tidyall".

CONSTRUCTION

   Constructor methods
       new (%params)
           The regular constructor. Must pass at least plugins and root_dir.

       new_with_conf_file ($conf_file, %params)
           Takes a conf file path, followed optionally by a set of key/value parameters.  Reads
           parameters out of the conf file and combines them with the passed parameters (the
           latter take precedence), and calls the regular constructor.

           If the conf file or params defines tidyall_class, then that class is constructed
           instead of "Code::TidyAll".

   Constructor parameters
       plugins
           Specify a hash of plugins, each of which is itself a hash of options. This is
           equivalent to what would be parsed out of the sections in the configuration file.

       backup_ttl
       check_only
       data_dir
       iterations
       mode
       no_backups
       no_cache
       output_suffix
       quiet
       root_dir
       verbose
           These options are the same as the equivalent "tidyall" command-line options, replacing
           dashes with underscore (e.g. the "backup-ttl" option becomes "backup_ttl" here).

METHODS

       process_paths (path, ...)
           Call "process_file" on each file; descend recursively into each directory if the
           "recursive" flag is on. Return a list of Code::TidyAll::Result objects, one for each
           file.

       process_file (file)
           Process the file, meaning

           •   Check the cache and return immediately if file has not changed

           •   Apply appropriate matching plugins

           •   Print success or failure result to STDOUT, depending on quiet/verbose settings

           •   Write the cache if enabled

           •   Return a Code::TidyAll::Result object

       process_source (source, path)
           Like "process_file", but process the source string instead of a file, and do not read
           from or write to the cache. You must still pass the relative path from the root as the
           second argument, so that we know which plugins to apply. Return a
           Code::TidyAll::Result object.

       plugins_for_path (path)
           Given a relative path from the root, return a list of Code::TidyAll::Plugin objects
           that apply to it, or an empty list if no plugins apply.

       find_conf_file (conf_names, start_dir)
           Class method. Start in the start_dir and work upwards, looking for one of the
           conf_names.  Return the pathname if found or throw an error if not found.

       find_matched_files
           Returns a list of sorted files that match at least one plugin in configuration.
