NAME
Psh::Strategy - a Perl Shell Evaluation Strategy (base class)SYNOPSIS
use Psh::Strategy;
DESCRIPTION
Psh::Strategy offers a procedural strategy list interface and a base class for developing strategies.PROCEDURAL STRATEGY LIST
Psh::Strategy::list()
Returns a list of active Psh::Strategy objects.
my $obj= Psh::Strategy::get('name')
Loads and initializes a certain Psh::Strategy object
Psh::Strategy::add($obj [, $suggest_position])
Adds a strategy object to the list of active strategies
Psh::Strategy::remove($name)
Removes a strategy
@list= Psh::Strategy::available_list()
Lists available strategies
my $pos= find($name)
Finds the position of the named strategy
my $flag= active($name)
Returns true if the named strategy is currently active
DEVELOPING STRATEGIES
You have to inherit from Psh::Strategy and you MUST at least override the functions "consumes", "applies", "execute". You CAN also override the function "runs_before"- •
- consumes
Returns either CONSUME_LINE, CONSUME_WORDS, CONSUME_TOKENS. CONSUME_LINE means you want to receive the whole input line unparsed. CONSUME_WORDS means you want to receive the whole input line tokenized (currenty unimplemented). CONSUME_TOKENS means that you want to receive a sub-part of the line, tokenized (this is probably what you want)
- •
- applies
Returns undef if the strategy does not want to handle the input. Returns a human-readable description if it wants to handle the input.
If you specified CONSUME_LINE, this method will be called as
$obj->applies(\$inputline);If you specified CONSUME_TOKENS, this method will be called as
$obj->applies(\$inputline,\@tokens,$piped_flag) - •
- execute
Will be called as
$obj->execute(\$inputline,\@tokens,$how,$piped_flag)$how is what the call to applies returned. If @tokens is not applicable an empty array will be supplied.
Your execute function should return an array of the form:
($evalcode, \@words, $forcefork, @return_val)
If $evalcode, <@words> and <$forcefork> are undef, execution is finished after this call and @return_val will be used as return value.
But $evalcode can also be a Perl sub - in which case it is evaluated later on, or a string - in which case it's a filename of a program to execute. @words will then be used as arguments for the program.
$forcefork may be used to force a "fork()" call even for the perl subs.
- •
- runs_before
Returns a list of names of other strategies. It is guaranteed that the evaluation strategy will be tried before those other named strategies are tried.
