NAME
Sub::Quote - Efficient generation of subroutines via string eval
SYNOPSIS
package Silly;
use Sub::Quote qw(quote_sub unquote_sub quoted_from_sub);
quote_sub 'Silly::kitty', q{ print "meow" };
quote_sub 'Silly::doggy', q{ print "woof" };
my $sound = 0;
quote_sub 'Silly::dagron',
q{ print ++$sound % 2 ? 'burninate' : 'roar' },
{ '$sound' => \$sound };
And elsewhere:
Silly->kitty; # meow
Silly->doggy; # woof
Silly->dagron; # burninate
Silly->dagron; # roar
Silly->dagron; # burninate
DESCRIPTION
This package provides performant ways to generate subroutines from
strings.
SUBROUTINES
quote_sub
my $coderef = quote_sub 'Foo::bar', q{ print $x++ . "\n" }, { '$x' => \0 };
Arguments: ?$name, $code, ?\%captures, ?\%options
$name is the subroutine where the coderef will be installed.
$code is a string that will be turned into code.
"\%captures" is a hashref of variables that will be made available to
the code. The keys should be the full name of the variable to be made
available, including the sigil. The values should be references to the
values. The variables will contain copies of the values. See the
"SYNOPSIS"'s "Silly::dagron" for an example using captures.
Exported by default.
options
"no_install"
Boolean. Set this option to not install the generated coderef into the
passed subroutine name on undefer.
"no_defer"
Boolean. Prevents a Sub::Defer wrapper from being generated for the
quoted sub. If the sub will most likely be called at some point,
setting this is a good idea. For a sub that will most likely be
inlined, it is not recommended.
"package"
The package that the quoted sub will be evaluated in. If not
specified, the package from sub calling "quote_sub" will be used.
"hints"
The value of $^H to use for the code being evaluated. This captures
the settings of the strict pragma. If not specified, the value from
the calling code will be used.
"warning_bits"
The value of "${^WARNING_BITS}" to use for the code being evaluated.
This captures the warnings set. If not specified, the warnings from
the calling code will be used.
"%^H"
The value of "%^H" to use for the code being evaluated. This captures
additional pragma settings. If not specified, the value from the
calling code will be used if possible (on perl 5.10+).
"attributes"
The "Subroutine Attributes" in perlsub to apply to the sub generated.
Should be specified as an array reference. The attributes will be
applied to both the generated sub and the deferred wrapper, if one is
used.
"file"
The apparent filename to use for the code being evaluated.
"line"
The apparent line number to use for the code being evaluated.
unquote_sub
my $coderef = unquote_sub $sub;
Forcibly replace subroutine with actual code.
If $sub is not a quoted sub, this is a no-op.
Exported by default.
quoted_from_sub
my $data = quoted_from_sub $sub;
my ($name, $code, $captures, $compiled_sub) = @$data;
Returns original arguments to quote_sub, plus the compiled version if
this sub has already been unquoted.
Note that $sub can be either the original quoted version or the compiled
version for convenience.
Exported by default.
inlinify
my $prelude = capture_unroll '$captures', {
'$x' => 1,
'$y' => 2,
}, 4;
my $inlined_code = inlinify q{
my ($x, $y) = @_;
print $x + $y . "\n";
}, '$x, $y', $prelude;
Takes a string of code, a string of arguments, a string of code which
acts as a "prelude", and a Boolean representing whether or not to
localize the arguments.
quotify
my $quoted_value = quotify $value;
Quotes a single (non-reference) scalar value for use in a code string.
The result should reproduce the original value, including strings,
undef, integers, and floating point numbers. The resulting floating
point numbers (including infinites and not a number) should be precisely
equal to the original, if possible. The exact format of the resulting
number should not be relied on, as it may include hex floats or math
expressions.
capture_unroll
my $prelude = capture_unroll '$captures', {
'$x' => 1,
'$y' => 2,
}, 4;
Arguments: $from, \%captures, $indent
Generates a snippet of code which is suitable to be used as a prelude
for "inlinify". $from is a string will be used as a hashref in the
resulting code. The keys of %captures are the names of the variables and
the values are ignored. $indent is the number of spaces to indent the
result by.
qsub
my $hash = {
coderef => qsub q{ print "hello"; },
other => 5,
};
Arguments: $code
Works exactly like "quote_sub", but includes a prototype to only accept
a single parameter. This makes it easier to include in hash structures
or lists.
Exported by default.
sanitize_identifier
my $var_name = '$variable_for_' . sanitize_identifier('@name');
quote_sub qq{ print \$${var_name} }, { $var_name => \$value };
Arguments: $identifier
Sanitizes a value so that it can be used in an identifier.
ENVIRONMENT
SUB_QUOTE_DEBUG
Causes code to be output to "STDERR" before being evaled. Several forms
are supported:
1 All subs will be output.
"/foo/"
Subs will be output if their code matches the given regular
expression.
"simple_identifier"
Any sub with the given name will be output.
"Full::identifier"
A sub matching the full name will be output.
"Package::Name::"
Any sub in the given package (including anonymous subs) will be
output.
CAVEATS
Much of this is just string-based code-generation, and as a result, a
few caveats apply.
return
Calling "return" from a quote_sub'ed sub will not likely do what you
intend. Instead of returning from the code you defined in "quote_sub",
it will return from the overall function it is composited into.
So when you pass in:
quote_sub q{ return 1 if $condition; $morecode }
It might turn up in the intended context as follows:
sub foo {
<important code a>
do {
return 1 if $condition;
$morecode
};
<important code b>
}
Which will obviously return from foo, when all you meant to do was
return from the code context in quote_sub and proceed with running
important code b.
pragmas
"Sub::Quote" preserves the environment of the code creating the quoted
subs. This includes the package, strict, warnings, and any other lexical
pragmas. This is done by prefixing the code with a block that sets up a
matching environment. When inlining "Sub::Quote" subs, care should be
taken that user pragmas won't effect the rest of the code.
