Perl module that facilitates refactoring Perl code.
The Devel::Refactor module is for code refactoring.
While Devel::Refactor may be used from Perl programs, it is also designed to be used with the \s-1EPIC\s0 plug-in for the eclipse integrated development environment.
Just the constructor for now.
Returns a new Devel::Refactor object.
Call on a object returned by new().
Pass it a snippet of Perl code that belongs in its own subroutine as well as a name for that sub. It figures out which variables need to be passed into the sub, and which variables might be passed back. It then produces the sub along with a call to the sub.
Hashes and arrays within the code snippet are converted to hashrefs and arrayrefs.
If the syntax_check argument is true then a sytax check is performed on the refactored code.
Example:
$new_name = 'newSub'; $old_code = <<'eos'; my @results; my %hash; my $date = localtime; $hash{foo} = 'value 1'; $hash{bar} = 'value 2'; for my $loopvar (@array) { print "Checking $loopvar\n"; push @results, $hash{$loopvar} || ''; } eos
($new_sub_call,$new_code) = $refactory->extract_subroutine($new_name,$old_code); # $new_sub_call is 'my ($date, $hash, $results) = newSub (\@array);' # $new_code is # sub newSub { # my $array = shift; # # my @results; # my %hash; # my $date = localtime; # $hash{foo} = 'value 1'; # $hash{bar} = 'value 2'; # for my $loopvar (@$array) { # print "Checking $loopvar\n"; # push @results, $hash{$loopvar} || ''; # } # # # return ($date, \%hash, \@results); # }
Included in the examples directory is a script for use in \s-1KDE\s0 under Linux. The script gets its code snippet from the \s-1KDE\s0 clipboard and returns the transformed code the same way. The new sub name is prompted for via \s-1STDIN\s0.
where is one of:
path-to-file path-to-directory
If where is a directory then all Perl files (default is \*(C`.pl\*(C', \*(C`.pm\*(C', and \*(C`.pod\*(C' See the perl_file_extensions method.) in that directory and its' descendents (to max_depth deep,) are searched.
Default for max_depth is 0 \*(-- just the directory itself; max_depth of 1 means the specified directory, and it's immeadiate sub-directories; max_depth of 2 means the specified directory, it's sub-directories, and their sub-directrories, and so forth. If you want to scan very deep, use a high number like 99.
If no matches are found then returns undef, otherwise:
Returns a hashref that tells you which files you might want to change, and for each file gives you the line numbers and proposed new text for that line. The hashref looks like this, where old_name was found on two lines in the first file and on one line in the second file:
{ ./path/to/file1.pl => [ { 11 => "if (myClass->newName($x)) {\n" }, { 27 => "my $result = myClass->newName($foo);\n"}, ], ./path/to/file2.pm => [ { 235 => "sub newName {\n"}, ], }
The keys are paths to individual files. The values are arraryrefs containing hashrefs where the keys are the line numbers where old_name was found and the values are the proposed new line, with old_name changed to new_name.
Takes a filename or path and returns true if the file has one of the extensions in perl_file_extensions, otherwise returns false.
These object methods return various data structures that may be stored in a Devel::Refactor object. In some cases the method also allows setting the property, e.g. perl_file_extensions.
Returns the return_snippet object property.
Returns the eval_err object property.
Returns the return_sub_call object property.
Returns an array of the keys from scalar_vars object property.
Returns an array of the keys from the array_vars object property.
Returns an array of the keys from the hash_vars object property.
Returns an array of the keys from the local_scalars object property.
Returns an array of the keys from the local_arrays object property.
Returns an array of the keys from the local_hashes object property.
Returns a hashref where the keys are regular expressions that match filename extensions that we think are for Perl files. Default are \*(C`.pl\*(C', \*(C`.pm\*(C', and \*(C`.pod\*(C'
If passed a hashref then it replaces the current values for this object. The keys should be regular expressions, e.g. \*(C`\.cgi$\*(C'.
If passed an arrayref then the list of values are added as valid Perl filename extensions. The list should be filename extensions, \s-1NOT\s0 regular expressions, For example:
my @additonal_filetypes = qw( .ipl .cgi ); my $new_hash = $refactory->perl_file_extensions(\@additional_filetypes); # $new_hash = { # '\.pl$' => 1, # '\.pm$' => 1, # '\.pod$' => 1, # '\.ipl$' => 1, # '\.cgi$' => 1, # '\.t$' => 1, # }
