=head1 NAME
Filter::Util::Call - Perl Source Filter Utility Module
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Filter::Util::Call ;
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module provides you with the framework to write I<Source Filters>
in Perl.
An alternate interface to Filter::Util::Call is now available. See
L<Filter::Simple> for more details.
A I<Perl Source Filter> is implemented as a Perl module. The structure
of the module can take one of two broadly similar formats. To
distinguish between them, the first will be referred to as I<method
filter> and the second as I<closure filter>.
Here is a skeleton for the I<method filter>:
package MyFilter ;
use Filter::Util::Call ;
sub import
{
my($type, @arguments) = @_ ;
filter_add([]) ;
}
sub filter
{
my($self) = @_ ;
my($status) ;
$status = filter_read() ;
$status ;
}
1 ;
and this is the equivalent skeleton for the I<closure filter>:
package MyFilter ;
use Filter::Util::Call ;
sub import
{
my($type, @arguments) = @_ ;
filter_add(
sub
{
my($status) ;
$status = filter_read() ;
$status ;
} )
}
1 ;
To make use of either of the two filter modules above, place the line
below in a Perl source file.
use MyFilter;
In fact, the skeleton modules shown above are fully functional I<Source
Filters>, albeit fairly useless ones. All they does is filter the
source stream without modifying it at all.
As you can see both modules have a broadly similar structure. They both
make use of the C<Filter::Util::Call> module and both have an C<import>
method. The difference between them is that the I<method filter>
requires a I<filter> method, whereas the I<closure filter> gets the
equivalent of a I<filter> method with the anonymous sub passed to
I<filter_add>.
To make proper use of the I<closure filter> shown above you need to
have a good understanding of the concept of a I<closure>. See
L<perlref> for more details on the mechanics of I<closures>.
=head2 B<use Filter::Util::Call>
The following functions are exported by C<Filter::Util::Call>:
filter_add()
filter_read()
filter_read_exact()
filter_del()
=head2 B<import()>
The C<import> method is used to create an instance of the filter. It is
called indirectly by Perl when it encounters the C<use MyFilter> line
in a source file (See L<perlfunc/import> for more details on
C<import>).
It will always have at least one parameter automatically passed by Perl
- this corresponds to the name of the package. In the example above it
will be C<"MyFilter">.
Apart from the first parameter, import can accept an optional list of
parameters. These can be used to pass parameters to the filter. For
example:
use MyFilter qw(a b c) ;
will result in the C<@_> array having the following values:
@_ [0] => "MyFilter"
@_ [1] => "a"
@_ [2] => "b"
@_ [3] => "c"
Before terminating, the C<import> function must explicitly install the
filter by calling C<filter_add>.
=head2 B<filter_add()>
The function, C<filter_add>, actually installs the filter. It takes one
parameter which should be a reference. The kind of reference used will
dictate which of the two filter types will be used.
If a CODE reference is used then a I<closure filter> will be assumed.
If a CODE reference is not used, a I<method filter> will be assumed.
In a I<method filter>, the reference can be used to store context
information. The reference will be I<blessed> into the package by
C<filter_add>, unless the reference was already blessed.
See the filters at the end of this documents for examples of using
context information using both I<method filters> and I<closure
filters>.
=head2 B<filter() and anonymous sub>
Both the C<filter> method used with a I<method filter> and the
anonymous sub used with a I<closure filter> is where the main
processing for the filter is done.
The big difference between the two types of filter is that the I<method
filter> uses the object passed to the method to store any context data,
whereas the I<closure filter> uses the lexical variables that are
maintained by the closure.
Note that the single parameter passed to the I<method filter>,
C<$self>, is the same reference that was passed to C<filter_add>
blessed into the filter's package. See the example filters later on for
details of using C<$self>.
Here is a list of the common features of the anonymous sub and the
C<filter()> method.
=over 5
=item B<$_>
Although C<$_> doesn't actually appear explicitly in the sample filters
above, it is implicitly used in a number of places.
Firstly, when either C<filter> or the anonymous sub are called, a local
copy of C<$_> will automatically be created. It will always contain the
empty string at this point.
Next, both C<filter_read> and C<filter_read_exact> will append any
source data that is read to the end of C<$_>.
Finally, when C<filter> or the anonymous sub are finished processing,
they are expected to return the filtered source using C<$_>.
This implicit use of C<$_> greatly simplifies the filter.
=item B<$status>
The status value that is returned by the user's C<filter> method or
anonymous sub and the C<filter_read> and C<read_exact> functions take
the same set of values, namely:
< 0 Error
= 0 EOF
> 0 OK
=item B<filter_read> and B<filter_read_exact>
These functions are used by the filter to obtain either a line or block
from the next filter in the chain or the actual source file if there
aren't any other filters.
The function C<filter_read> takes two forms:
$status = filter_read() ;
$status = filter_read($size) ;
The first form is used to request a I<line>, the second requests a
I<block>.
In line mode, C<filter_read> will append the next source line to the
end of the C<$_> scalar.
In block mode, C<filter_read> will append a block of data which is <=
C<$size> to the end of the C<$_> scalar. It is important to emphasise
the that C<filter_read> will not necessarily read a block which is
I<precisely> C<$size> bytes.
If you need to be able to read a block which has an exact size, you can
use the function C<filter_read_exact>. It works identically to
C<filter_read> in block mode, except it will try to read a block which
is exactly C<$size> bytes in length. The only circumstances when it
will not return a block which is C<$size> bytes long is on EOF or
error.
It is I<very> important to check the value of C<$status> after I<every>
call to C<filter_read> or C<filter_read_exact>.
=item B<filter_del>
The function, C<filter_del>, is used to disable the current filter. It
does not affect the running of the filter. All it does is tell Perl not
to call filter any more.
See L<Example 4: Using filter_del> for details.
=item I<real_import>
Internal function which adds the filter, based on the L<filter_add>
argument type.
=item I<unimport()>
May be used to disable a filter, but is rarely needed. See L<filter_del>.
=back
=head1 LIMITATIONS
See L<perlfilter/LIMITATIONS> for an overview of the general problems
filtering code in a textual line-level only.
=over
=item __DATA__ is ignored
The content from the __DATA__ block is not filtered.
This is a serious limitation, e.g. for the L<Switch> module.
See L<http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Switch#LIMITATIONS> for more.
=item Max. codesize limited to 32-bit
Currently internal buffer lengths are limited to 32-bit only.
=back
=head1 EXAMPLES
Here are a few examples which illustrate the key concepts - as such
most of them are of little practical use.
The C<examples> sub-directory has copies of all these filters
implemented both as I<method filters> and as I<closure filters>.
=head2 Example 1: A simple filter.
Below is a I<method filter> which is hard-wired to replace all
occurrences of the string C<"Joe"> to C<"Jim">. Not particularly
Useful, but it is the first example and I wanted to keep it simple.
package Joe2Jim ;
use Filter::Util::Call ;
sub import
{
my($type) = @_ ;
filter_add(bless []) ;
}
sub filter
{
my($self) = @_ ;
my($status) ;
s/Joe/Jim/g
if ($status = filter_read()) > 0 ;
$status ;
}
1 ;
Here is an example of using the filter:
use Joe2Jim ;
print "Where is Joe?\n" ;
And this is what the script above will print:
Where is Jim?
=head2 Example 2: Using the context
The previous example was not particularly useful. To make it more
general purpose we will make use of the context data and allow any
arbitrary I<from> and I<to> strings to be used. This time we will use a
I<closure filter>. To reflect its enhanced role, the filter is called
C<Subst>.
package Subst ;
use Filter::Util::Call ;
use Carp ;
sub import
{
croak("usage: use Subst qw(from to)")
unless @_ == 3 ;
my ($self, $from, $to) = @_ ;
filter_add(
sub
{
my ($status) ;
s/$from/$to/
if ($status = filter_read()) > 0 ;
$status ;
})
}
1 ;
and is used like this:
use Subst qw(Joe Jim) ;
print "Where is Joe?\n" ;
=head2 Example 3: Using the context within the filter
Here is a filter which a variation of the C<Joe2Jim> filter. As well as
substituting all occurrences of C<"Joe"> to C<"Jim"> it keeps a count
of the number of substitutions made in the context object.
Once EOF is detected (C<$status> is zero) the filter will insert an
extra line into the source stream. When this extra line is executed it
will print a count of the number of substitutions actually made.
Note that C<$status> is set to C<1> in this case.
package Count ;
use Filter::Util::Call ;
sub filter
{
my ($self) = @_ ;
my ($status) ;
if (($status = filter_read()) > 0 ) {
s/Joe/Jim/g ;
++ $$self ;
}
elsif ($$self >= 0) { # EOF
$_ = "print q[Made ${$self} substitutions\n]" ;
$status = 1 ;
$$self = -1 ;
}
$status ;
}
sub import
{
my ($self) = @_ ;
my ($count) = 0 ;
filter_add(\$count) ;
}
1 ;
Here is a script which uses it:
use Count ;
print "Hello Joe\n" ;
print "Where is Joe\n" ;
Outputs:
Hello Jim
Where is Jim
Made 2 substitutions
=head2 Example 4: Using filter_del
Another variation on a theme. This time we will modify the C<Subst>
filter to allow a starting and stopping pattern to be specified as well
as the I<from> and I<to> patterns. If you know the I<vi> editor, it is
the equivalent of this command:
:/start/,/stop/s/from/to/
When used as a filter we want to invoke it like this:
use NewSubst qw(start stop from to) ;
Here is the module.
package NewSubst ;
use Filter::Util::Call ;
use Carp ;
sub import
{
my ($self, $start, $stop, $from, $to) = @_ ;
my ($found) = 0 ;
croak("usage: use Subst qw(start stop from to)")
unless @_ == 5 ;
filter_add(
sub
{
my ($status) ;
if (($status = filter_read()) > 0) {
$found = 1
if $found == 0 and /$start/ ;
if ($found) {
s/$from/$to/ ;
filter_del() if /$stop/ ;
}
}
$status ;
} )
}
1 ;
=head1 Filter::Simple
If you intend using the Filter::Call functionality, I would strongly
recommend that you check out Damian Conway's excellent Filter::Simple
module. Damian's module provides a much cleaner interface than
Filter::Util::Call. Although it doesn't allow the fine control that
Filter::Util::Call does, it should be adequate for the majority of
applications. It's available at
http://search.cpan.org/dist/Filter-Simple/
