Eval::TypeTiny::CodeAcUserlContributed PerEval::TypeTiny::CodeAccumulator(3pm)

NAME
       Eval::TypeTiny::CodeAccumulator - alternative API for Eval::TypeTiny

SYNOPSIS
         my $make_adder = 'Eval::TypeTiny::CodeAccumulator'->new(
           description => 'adder',
         );

         my $n = 40;
         my $varname = $make_adder->add_variable( '$addend' => \$n );

         $make_adder->add_line( 'sub {' );
         $make_adder->increase_indent;
         $make_adder->add_line( 'my $other_addend = shift;' );
         $make_adder->add_gap;
         $make_adder->add_line( 'return ' . $varname . ' + $other_addend;' );
         $make_adder->decrease_indent;
         $make_adder->add_line( '}' );

         my $adder = $make_adder->compile;

         say $adder->( 2 );  ## ==> 42

STATUS
       This module is covered by the Type-Tiny stability policy.

DESCRIPTION
   Constructor
       "new( %attrs )"
           The only currently supported attribute is "description".

   Methods
       "env()"
           Returns the current compilation environment, a hashref of variables
           to close over.

       "code()"
           Returns the source code so far.

       "description()"
           Returns the same description given to the constructor, if any.

       "add_line( @lines_of_code )"
           Adds the next line of code.

       "add_gap()"
           Adds a blank line of code.

       "increase_indent()"
           Increases the indentation level for subsequent lines of code.

       "decrease_indent()"
           Decreases the indentation level for subsequent lines of code.

       "add_variable( $varname, $reference_to_value )"
           Adds a variable to the compilation environment so that the coderef
           being generated can close over it.

           If a variable already exists in the environment with that name,
           will instead add a variable with a different name and return that
           name. You should always continue to refer to the variable with that
           returned name, just in case.

       "add_placeholder( $placeholder_name )"
           Adds a line of code which is just a comment, but remembers its line
           number.

       "fill_placeholder( $placeholder_name, @lines_of_code )"
           Goes back to a previously inserted placeholder and replaces it with
           code.

           As an alternative, "add_placeholder" returns a coderef, which you
           can call like "$callback->( @lines_of_code )".

       "compile( %opts )"
           Compiles the code and returns it as a coderef.

           Options are passed on to "eval_closure" from Eval::TypeTiny, but
           cannot include "code" or "environment". "alias => 1" is probably
           the option most likely to be useful, but in general you won't need
           to provide any options.

       "finalize()"
           This method is called by "compile" just before compiling the code.
           All it does is remove unfilled placeholder comments. It is not
           intended for end users to call, but is documented as it may be a
           useful hook if you are subclassing this class.
