307 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
308 | |
47bfe92f |
309 | The C<Encode> module provides the interfaces between Perl's strings |
67d7b5ef |
310 | and the rest of the system. Perl strings are sequences of |
311 | B<characters>. |
312 | |
313 | The repertoire of characters that Perl can represent is at least that |
314 | defined by the Unicode Consortium. On most platforms the ordinal |
315 | values of the characters (as returned by C<ord(ch)>) is the "Unicode |
316 | codepoint" for the character (the exceptions are those platforms where |
317 | the legacy encoding is some variant of EBCDIC rather than a super-set |
318 | of ASCII - see L<perlebcdic>). |
319 | |
320 | Traditionally computer data has been moved around in 8-bit chunks |
321 | often called "bytes". These chunks are also known as "octets" in |
322 | networking standards. Perl is widely used to manipulate data of many |
323 | types - not only strings of characters representing human or computer |
324 | languages but also "binary" data being the machines representation of |
325 | numbers, pixels in an image - or just about anything. |
326 | |
327 | When Perl is processing "binary data" the programmer wants Perl to |
328 | process "sequences of bytes". This is not a problem for Perl - as a |
329 | byte has 256 possible values it easily fits in Perl's much larger |
330 | "logical character". |

361 | =item $octets = encode(ENCODING, $string[, CHECK]) |
4411f3b6 |
362 | |
47bfe92f |
363 | Encodes string from Perl's internal form into I<ENCODING> and returns |
67d7b5ef |
364 | a sequence of octets. ENCODING can be either a canonical name or |
365 | alias. For encoding names and aliases, see L</"Defining Aliases">. |
366 | For CHECK see L</"Handling Malformed Data">. |
4411f3b6 |
367 | |
67d7b5ef |
368 | For example to convert (internally UTF-8 encoded) Unicode string to |
6d1c0808 |
369 | iso-8859-1 (also known as Latin1), |
681a7c68 |
370 | |
67d7b5ef |
371 | $octets = encode("iso-8859-1", $unicode); |

f2a2953c |
373 | =item $string = decode(ENCODING, $octets[, CHECK]) |
4411f3b6 |
374 | |
47bfe92f |
375 | Decode sequence of octets assumed to be in I<ENCODING> into Perl's |
67d7b5ef |
376 | internal form and returns the resulting string. as in encode(), |
377 | ENCODING can be either a canonical name or alias. For encoding names |
378 | and aliases, see L</"Defining Aliases">. For CHECK see |
47bfe92f |
379 | L</"Handling Malformed Data">. |
380 | |
1b2c56c8 |
381 | For example to convert ISO-8859-1 data to UTF-8: |
681a7c68 |
382 | |
67d7b5ef |
383 | $utf8 = decode("iso-8859-1", $latin1); |
681a7c68 |

385 | =item [$length =] from_to($string, FROM_ENCODING, TO_ENCODING [,CHECK]) |
47bfe92f |
386 | |
85982a32 |
387 | Convert B<in-place> the data between two encodings. |
1b2c56c8 |
388 | For example to convert ISO-8859-1 data to UTF-8: |
2b106fbe |
389 | |
390 | from_to($data, "iso-8859-1", "utf-8"); |
391 | |
392 | and to convert it back: |
393 | |
394 | from_to($data, "utf-8", "iso-8859-1"); |
4411f3b6 |
395 | |
ab97ca19 |
396 | Note that because the conversion happens in place, the data to be |
397 | converted cannot be a string constant, it must be a scalar variable. |
398 | |
3ef515df |
399 | from_to() return the length of the converted string on success, undef |
400 | otherwise. |

404 | =head2 UTF-8 / utf8 |
405 | |
406 | The Unicode consortium defines the UTF-8 standard as a way of encoding |
407 | the entire Unicode repertoire as sequences of octets. This encoding is |
408 | expected to become very widespread. Perl can use this form internally |
409 | to represent strings, so conversions to and from this form are |
410 | particularly efficient (as octets in memory do not have to change, |
411 | just the meta-data that tells Perl how to treat them). |
412 | |
413 | =over 4 |
414 | |
415 | =item $octets = encode_utf8($string); |

417 | The characters that comprise string are encoded in Perl's superset of UTF-8 |
418 | and the resulting octets returned as a sequence of bytes. All possible |
419 | characters have a UTF-8 representation so this function cannot fail. |
420 | |
421 | =item $string = decode_utf8($octets [, CHECK]); |
422 | |
423 | The sequence of octets represented by $octets is decoded from UTF-8 |
424 | into a sequence of logical characters. Not all sequences of octets |
425 | form valid UTF-8 encodings, so it is possible for this call to fail. |
426 | For CHECK see L</"Handling Malformed Data">. |

432 | use Encode; |
433 | @list = Encode->encodings(); |
434 | |
435 | Returns a list of the canonical names of the available encodings that |
436 | are loaded. To get a list of all available encodings including the |
437 | ones that are not loaded yet, say |
438 | |
439 | @all_encodings = Encode->encodings(":all"); |
440 | |
441 | Or you can give the name of specific module. |
442 | |
c731e18e |
443 | @with_jp = Encode->encodings("Encode::JP"); |
444 | |
445 | When "::" is not in the name, "Encode::" is assumed. |

452 | =head2 Defining Aliases |
453 | |
67d7b5ef |
454 | To add new alias to a given encoding, Use; |
455 | |
5129552c |
456 | use Encode; |
457 | use Encode::Alias; |
a63c962f |
458 | define_alias(newName => ENCODING); |
51ef4e11 |
459 | |
3ef515df |
460 | After that, newName can be used as an alias for ENCODING. |
f2a2953c |
461 | ENCODING may be either the name of an encoding or an |
462 | I<encoding object> |
51ef4e11 |
463 | |
fcb875d4 |
464 | But before you do so, make sure the alias is nonexistent with |
465 | C<resolve_alias()>, which returns the canonical name thereof. |
466 | i.e. |
467 | |
468 | Encode::resolve_alias("latin1") eq "iso-8859-1" # true |
469 | Encode::resolve_alias("iso-8859-12") # false; nonexistent |
470 | Encode::resolve_alias($name) eq $name # true if $name is canonical |
471 | |
6d1c0808 |
472 | This resolve_alias() does not need C<use Encode::Alias> and is |
fcb875d4 |
473 | exported via C<use encode qw(resolve_alias)>. |
474 | |

477 | =head1 Encoding via PerlIO |
4411f3b6 |
478 | |
85982a32 |
479 | If your perl supports I<PerlIO>, you can use PerlIO layer to directly |
480 | decode and encode via filehandle. The following two examples are |
481 | totally identical by functionality. |
4411f3b6 |
482 | |
85982a32 |
483 | # via PerlIO |
484 | open my $in, "<:encoding(shiftjis)", $infile or die; |
485 | open my $out, ">:encoding(euc-jp)", $outfile or die; |
486 | while(<>){ print; } |
8e86646e |
487 | |
85982a32 |
488 | # via from_to |
489 | open my $in, $infile or die; |
490 | open my $out, $outfile or die; |
6d1c0808 |
491 | while(<>){ |
85982a32 |
492 | from_to($_, "shiftjis", "euc", 1); |
493 | } |
4411f3b6 |
494 | |
85982a32 |
495 | Unfortunately, not all encodings are PerlIO-savvy. You can check if |
496 | your encoding is supported by PerlIO by C<perlio_ok> method. |
4411f3b6 |
497 | |
85982a32 |
498 | Encode::perlio_ok("iso-20220jp"); # false |
499 | find_encoding("iso-2022-jp")->perlio_ok; # false |
500 | use Encode qw(perlio_ok); # exported upon request |
501 | perlio_ok("euc-jp") # true if PerlIO is enabled |
4411f3b6 |

85982a32 |
509 | THE I<CHECK> argument is used as follows. When you omit it, it is |
510 | identical to I<CHECK> = 0. |
47bfe92f |
511 | |
85982a32 |
512 | =item I<CHECK> = Encode::FB_DEFAULT ( == 0) |
47bfe92f |
513 | |
85982a32 |
514 | If I<CHECK> is 0, (en|de)code will put I<substitution character> in |
515 | place of the malformed character. for UCM-based encodings, |
516 | E<lt>subcharE<gt> will be used. For Unicode, \xFFFD is used. If the |
517 | data is supposed to be UTF-8, an optional lexical warning (category |
6d1c0808 |
518 | utf8) is given. |
e9692b5b |
519 | |
85982a32 |
520 | =item I<CHECK> = Encode::DIE_ON_ERROR (== 1) |
e9692b5b |
521 | |
85982a32 |
522 | If I<CHECK> is 1, methods will die immediately with an error |
523 | message. so when I<CHECK> is set, you should trap the fatal error |
524 | with eval{} unless you really want to let it die on error. |
47bfe92f |
525 | |
85982a32 |
526 | =item I<CHECK> = Encode::FB_QUIET |
47bfe92f |
527 | |
85982a32 |
528 | If I<CHECK> is set to Encode::FB_QUIET, (en|de)code will immediately |
6d1c0808 |
529 | return processed part on error, with data passed via argument |
530 | overwritten with unprocessed part. This is handy when have to |
85982a32 |
531 | repeatedly call because the source data is chopped in the middle for |
6d1c0808 |
532 | some reasons, such as fixed-width buffer. Here is a sample code that |
85982a32 |
533 | just does this. |
4411f3b6 |
534 | |
85982a32 |
535 | my $data = ''; |
536 | while(defined(read $fh, $buffer, 256)){ |
537 | # buffer may end in partial character so we append |
538 | $data .= $buffer; |
539 | $utf8 .= decode($encoding, $data, ENCODE::FB_QUIET); |
540 | # $data now contains unprocessed partial character |
541 | } |

85982a32 |
543 | =item I<CHECK> = Encode::FB_WARN |
67d7b5ef |
544 | |
85982a32 |
545 | This is the same as above, except it warns on error. Handy when you |
546 | are debugging the mode above. |
547 | |
548 | =item perlqq mode (I<CHECK> = Encode::FB_PERLQQ) |
549 | |
550 | For encodings that are implemented by Encode::XS, CHECK == |
551 | Encode::FB_PERLQQ turns (en|de)code into C<perlqq> fallback mode. |
552 | |
553 | When you decode, '\xI<XX>' will be placed where I<XX> is the hex |
554 | representation of the octet that could not be decoded to utf8. And |
555 | when you encode, '\x{I<xxxx>}' will be placed where I<xxxx> is the |
556 | Unicode ID of the character that cannot be found in the character |
6d1c0808 |
557 | repertoire of the encoding. |
85982a32 |
558 | |
559 | =item The bitmask |
560 | |
561 | These modes are actually set via bitmask. here is how FB_XX are laid |
562 | out. for FB_XX you can import via C<use Encode qw(:fallbacks)> for |
563 | generic bitmask constants, you can import via |
564 | C<use Encode qw(:fallback_all)>. |

578 | =head1 Defining Encodings |

582 | use Encode qw(define_alias); |
583 | define_encoding($object, 'canonicalName' [, alias...]); |
584 | |
585 | I<canonicalName> will be associated with I<$object>. The object |
586 | should provide the interface described in L<Encode::Encoding> |
587 | If more than two arguments are provided then additional |
588 | arguments are taken as aliases for I<$object> as for C<define_alias>. |

47bfe92f |
602 | If CHECK is true, also checks the data in STRING for being well-formed |
603 | UTF-8. Returns true if successful, false otherwise. |

a63c962f |
605 | =item _utf8_on(STRING) |
4411f3b6 |

607 | [INTERNAL] Turn on the UTF-8 flag in STRING. The data in STRING is |
608 | B<not> checked for being well-formed UTF-8. Do not use unless you |
609 | B<know> that the STRING is well-formed UTF-8. Returns the previous |
610 | state of the UTF-8 flag (so please don't test the return value as |
611 | I<not> success or failure), or C<undef> if STRING is not a string. |

a63c962f |
613 | =item _utf8_off(STRING) |
4411f3b6 |
