NAME Devel::IntelliPerl - Auto-completion for Perl VERSION version 0.04 SYNOPSIS use Devel::IntelliPerl; my $source = <<'SOURCE'; package Foo; use Moose; has foobar => ( isa => 'Str', is => 'rw' ); has foo => ( isa => 'Foo', is => 'rw' ); sub bar { my ($self, $c) = @_; # $c isa Catalyst $self-> } 1; SOURCE my $ip = Devel::IntelliPerl->new(source => $source, line_number => 10, column => 12); my @methods = $ip->methods; @methods contains "bar", "foo", and "foobar" amongst others. Method completion for $c works as well. Using the comment "# $c isa Catalyst" you can specify the variable $c as an object of the "Catalyst" class. This comment can be located anywhere in the current file. Even though the example uses Moose, this module works also with non Moose classes. See "SCREENCASTS" for usage examples. ATTRIBUTES line_number (Int $line_number) Required Line number of the cursor. Starts at 1. column (Int $column) Required Position of the cursor. Starts at 1. source (Str $source) Required Source code. filename Optional Store the filename of the current file. If this value is set @INC is extended by all "lib" directories found in any parent directory. This is useful if you want to have access to modules which are not in @INC but in your local "lib" folder. This method sets "inc". This value is NOT used to retrive the source code! Use source instead. inc (ArrayRef[Str] $inc) Optional All directories specified will be prepended to @INC. METHODS error (Str $error) If an error occurs it is accessible via this method. line (Str $line) Sets or gets the current line. keyword This represents the current keyword. Examples ("_" stands for the cursor position): my $foo = MyClass->_ # keyword is MyClass my $foo->_ # keyword is $foo my $foo->bar->_ # keyword is $foo->bar prefix Part of a method which has been typed already. Examples ("_" stands for the cursor position): my $foo = MyClass->foo_ # keyword is MyClass, prefix is foo my $foo->bar_ # keyword is $foo, prefix is bar methods Returns all methods which were found for "keyword" and "prefix". trimmed_methods Returns "methods" truncated from the beginning by the length of "prefix". INTERNAL METHODS guess_class (Str $keyword) Given a keyword (e.g. "$foo->bar->file") this method tries to find the class from which to load the methods. handle_class Loads the selected class. handle_self Loads the current class. handle_method This method tries to resove the class of the returned value of a given method. It supports Moose attributes as well as MooseX::Method::Signatures. Example for an instrospectable class: package Signatures; use Moose; use Path::Class::File; use MooseX::Method::Signatures; use Moose::Util::TypeConstraints; has dir => ( isa => 'Path::Class::Dir', is => 'rw' ); BEGIN { class_type 'PathClassFile', { class => 'Path::Class::File' }; } method file returns (PathClassFile) { return new Path::Class::File; } 1; Given this class, Devel::IntelliPerl provides the following features: my $sig = new Signatures; $sig->_ # will suggest "dir" and "file" amongst others $sig->file->_ # will suggest all methods from Path::Class::File handle_variable Tries to find the variable's class using regexes. Supported syntaxes: $variable = MyClass->new $variable = MyClass->new(...) $variable = new MyClass # $variable isa MyClass inject_statement (Str $statement) Injects $statement at the current position. update_inc Trigger called by "filename".
